“Here’s a 5-star review you can leave for Victoria: ⸻ Victoria was absolutely wonderful! She took such great care of our three pups and our home while we were away. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such loving and responsible hands. We came back to a clean house and happy dogs—couldn’t have asked for more. Highly recommend her! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐”


About: I treat every pet like my own, with love, patience, and personalized care. Reliable, experienced, and always happy to provide updates—your pet's happiness is my priority! With a flexible school schedule, pet sitting fits perfectly into my routine—giving me the opportunity to provide dedicated, loving care when your pet needs it most. I stick closely to your pet’s regular schedule for feeding, walks, playtime, and bedtime to keep them comfortable and stress-free. As well as, giving your pet my full attention—whether that means playtime, cuddles, or just keeping them company throughout the day or night and sending regular updates so you can see what your pet is doing throughout our day!

About: I have a variety of experiences with animal care; from being responsible for my childhood dog to taking care of my neighbors cat. I’ve worked with puppies to seniors (still puppies at heart) and all different breeds. Even the giant horse breed (Great Dane) so no animal is off limits for me! I am trying to pick up more shifts throughout my schedule. I will mostly be available in the morning and after work, but will be adding more remote days to my schedule to increase flexibility! I treat every animal as if they are apart of my family. I will adhere all rules from the owners to seamless blend into their current environment, as I think consistency is a huge factor (can’t mess with the routine).

“Mackenna did an amazing job with Bux and Bru! She was communicative, reliable, and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. Both pups were happy, well-cared for, and clearly loved spending time with her. We’ll definitely be booking with her again—highly recommend!”


About: Growing up in a home full of animals and with my parents being veterinarians, I truly believe that our pets are not just pets, they are family. You can rest assured that with my experience caring for my own family's pets, shadowing at my parents' vet practice on my pre-vet path, and with my master's degree in animal behavior your four-legged family will be safe and comfortable under my care. I am currently in between work after finishing graduate school, so my schedule is very flexible to give your pets the care and attention they need. It’s easy to worry about our pets when they’re out of our sight. Under my care, you can rest easy knowing that with my knowledge of animal health and behavior from my education and shadowing experience at a veterinary practice, I keep a keen eye out for any health or behavioral issues which may be affecting the comfort of your pets.

“Brianna was a life saver! We were able to book and meet last minute for a weekend house sitting. I was definitely impressed by her versatility and expertise in caring for pets of all kinds. She provided great care for my dog with anxiety and two kittens! Brianna ensured they were well-fed, entertained, and snuggled. I highly recommend Brianna’s services to anyone in need of reliable and trustworthy pet care!”


“Ligia was amazing!! I was a little nervous how my dog would act around someone new watching her, but Ligia took great care of her!! I would definitely recommend Ligia to anyone and I will definitely be using her again.”


“This is the second time I've used Hannah for a full week House and Dog sit, and would gladly call on her again. This trip even had a slight issue: (groomer cut dog right before our trip) and Hannah had to deal with my Winn licking the wound, and a small bloody cut. Hannah communicated the issue well and patched him up fine. She also leaves the house exactly as she enters it, leaving it as clean, if not cleaner, than it was left to her. I highly recommend for any service. I've also had one of my neighbors call on her and they were just as happy.”


“Sydney and Evan were great! Booked them for house sitting last minute for an out of town trip. They followed our schedule and gave daily updates on my fur babies. Would definitely book with them again :)”



“Cam sat for our dog, April, for a week and took wonderful care of her! We had a meet and greet with Cam prior to the sitting and felt very comfortable leaving her in his care. We received updates throughout the week on how she was doing. She went on lots of walks, played frisbee in the dog park, and took a few car rides (with our permission of course!). Cam is a fine young man whom we trust to pet and house sit, and we look forward to using him again soon!”


“Katherine was amazing!! She was great with sending updates and keeping us in the loop with our babies! Can not recommend enough!! Thank you Katherine!! ☺️”


About: I am always the friend who gets called when you need someone to watch your pet. I have always been an animal lover. I am very attentive and will treat your pet like my own. I work 10AM- 4PM Monday through Friday, so I’m available for early morning and evening walks, plus plenty of weekend care. I’m also happy to stay at your home for overnight care or drop in before/after work to make sure your pets get all the love and attention they need. I follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible so they feel comfortable and secure while you’re away. That means sticking to their feeding schedule, keeping up with walks or playtime, and making sure they have fresh water at all times. I give lots of love, attention, and companionship, and I always keep you updated with photos and messages so you know they’re happy and cared for.

“Molly was simply the best dog sitter we have ever had. She was caring and kind to our puppy, and even sent pictures and updates to me. I will definitely be a repeat client.”


“The best pet sitter we could have asked for! She was super nice and great with communication! My cats loved her, and i loved the update pics she sent us! Highly recommend and will be using again when needed. :)”


“We’re very thankful we got connected with Mare! We have an older dog with anxiety that we don’t feel we can leave alone anymore. Mare was really good with her as well as our other less-needy, but love-seeking dog. We were able to enjoy a great night out with friends because of Mare! We looking forward to more worry-free time out while Mare cares for our girls.”


“Isabella was great!! I was so glad to have a trustworthy sitter, who was still willing to take care of my pup in the aftermath of a hurricane. Took great care of Rosie and I highly recommend!”


About: My interactions with pets came in the form of an 8 week old puppy named Lola gifted to me for my birthday. Lola is now turning 10 years old and having her has gifted me the experiences of interacting with other pets. I have had the pleasure of dog sitting, play dates, and dog walking pets of various sizes and ages for the last 10years! I truly love the bond that dogs hold with humans and as someone that’s looking to turn a passion into a career, I’m so excited to have the time to take this opportunity to start. I currently work a part time job with a flexible schedule which is the perfect scenario for pet walking and pet sitting! I live in a home with a fenced in back yard. I have a lot of experience with bringing dogs to public dog parks as I know the signs for high stress situation. I have a very large fenced in backyard with a large oak tree that provides shade and places for dogs to sit and relax. Plenty of room for fun games! I I have the ability to keep my pets separate from others if that’s needed! I also live across the street from a nature preserve that’s walking distance fora change of scenery and more exercise.

“Gabby has been my cat sitter several times. She’s very caring and devotes lots of time and snuggles to my Velcro cat. When she comes to the house, my cat always greets her for a rub and snacks. He’s so comfortable with her that he will eat treats from her hand! She does an incredible job!”

“Emily’s kind soul would be enough of a reason to hire her. BUT add a graduate degree in animal behavior and 2 vet parents and I don’t know what else you could want from a pet sitter. Your critters will be well loved.”

“I can’t say enough good things about Angela From the very first walk, she treated my dog like her own. She was reliable, kind, and so loving—my pup would get excited the moment she walked through the door. She went above and beyond, sending me updates and pictures every time, which gave me total peace of mind. You can tell she truly cares about animals, and her passion shines through in everything she does. I would trust her with my dog any day and recommend her to anyone who wants the absolute best care for their furry family member.”
