“Jennifer had a challenging sit with our cat and dog. We were gone for 8-9 days. She stayed with them and took on the challenges of our geriatric cat and reactive dog. She came to visit several times before our trip. It was important to her that things go well. Within several days, our dog was sleeping with her. She has a calm, kind, and trustworthy aura. Leaving our animals was going to be very stressful, but it wasn’t. We were able to enjoy our trip knowing our pets were being taken well care of. Would and probably will use her again. Thank you so very much Jen.”

“Terry was great! We were visiting Florida from out of town and needed a sitter for 8+ hours with fairly short notice. Our sweet pup isn't always a fan of strangers - especially when we're leaving him with them. Terry was able to win him over - and even sent me a video of her giving him a belly rub! Not only was she willing to stay with him the entire time, but she brought him two toys - one being a stuffed alligator which has become his favorite since we've returned home! Terry clearly loves animals and I would definitely recommend her to anyone looking for someone to spoil their pet while they're away - she's Dudley approved!”

“Our Dog, Blu, took to Destiny immediately (good sign) and I could tell she would be a great in-home sitter for our week away. She asked all the right questions regarding his care and feeding, took good care of him and our home, and communicated daily with updates. She ensured he went for walks and got lots of attention. I definitely recommend Destiny will book her again.”

“My wife and I booked Linda for a 5 night "overnight" service, and we have to say that we feel incredibly positive about her services. This was our first time booking with her since we'd been having a very difficult time finding an overnight sitter we could trust, and she ended up blowing us away with how wonderfully she took care of our dog, cat, and home while we were away. It was like she'd already known our fur babies for years, and that says so much considering our dog's high separation anxiety. And all the photos of our boys while we were away were wonderful!!! I would HIGHLY recommend Linda to anyone looking for an overnight sitter or even just to do drop ins.”

“Mary is a top notch sitter. Ruby genuinely took to her immediately. Mary was diligent about sending pictures and updates. She was attentive to Ruby’s health care needs. Will book her again. Highly recommend!”

“Tammy was absolutely wonderful as our pet sitter! She took such great care of my girls, giving me complete peace of mind while I was away. It was clear they were happy, comfortable, and well loved the entire time. On top of that, Tammy went above and beyond—she left our home spotless and even took the time to wash the bedding, which was such a thoughtful and appreciated touch. Coming home to a clean house and happy pets made all the difference. I highly recommend Tammy to anyone looking for a reliable, caring, and detail-oriented pet sitter. We will definitely be using her again!”

“Samantha is wonderful. Lilly and Ruby stayed at Aunt Sam’s for 5 days over the Thanksgiving holiday. My babies were so well taken care of and had lots of love. We highly recommend Samantha and Lilly and Ruby will definitely stay again!”

“We had an amazing experience with our Jadyn! She stayed in our home with our dogs and cats and cared for them with so much love and attention. She took the dogs on walks, kept everyone happy and comfortable, and gave us such peace of mind while we were away. Jadyn sent us pictures and updates throughout her stay which gave us peace of mind. When we came back home, our pet babies were healthy, relaxed, and so happy. We are incredibly grateful and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy pet sitter!”

About: I’ve been raised around dogs my entire life and have hands-on experience caring for them in every stage — from playful puppies to seniors who need a little extra patience and attention. Having supported my own dogs through their later years, I understand how important gentle, attentive care is. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine. I work Monday through Friday from 5:30 AM to 2:30 PM, which means I’m available for early morning visits before work and have my full afternoons and evenings open for walks, drop-ins, feeding, playtime, and overnight care. Because I’m off mid-afternoon, your pet won’t be waiting all day for attention. I’m able to give them consistent, reliable care and quality time — whether that’s a calm check-in, an energetic walk, or simply extra cuddles to help them feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I will always care for your pet the way you feel most comfortable, especially in your own home. I carefully follow any instructions you leave — from feeding routines and medications to favorite toys and bedtime habits — because I know how important consistency is for their comfort and your peace of mind. If they stay in my home, they’ll be welcomed into a calm, loving environment alongside my two pets. They’ll have access to a fully fenced backyard where they can safely explore and enjoy fresh air. I’m able to separate from my cat if needed to ensure everyone feels secure and comfortable. While I’m not able to separate from my dog, he is well-socialized and used to being around other animals. My goal is always to create a safe, warm space where your pet feels cared for, understood, and at home.
“I couldn't be more pleased with the great job Sam did taking care of my cats for 2 weeks. He went above and beyond what was expected of him to make my cats feel loved and cared for. I highly recommend him and will definitely be hiring him again in the future next time I need a sitter”

“Marisa did an amazing job with our pups over the weekend! we will definitely be using her services again! She made sure to send us pictures and updates throughout the weekend of our dogs. She also cleaned everything that was used and I think thats just going beyond her job! it was amazing!”

“Meagan was amazing! Super communicative, lots of pictures which I love. She took such great care of Duke and my home. She also brought her gorgeous dog Raven who Duke fell head over paws for. Hehe. She took them on lots of hikes and adventures and even gave him a bath!!! Will 100% use Meagan again!”


“We had a wonderful experience with Christina and her family! They were reliable, communicative, and took great care of our pets. We came home to happy animals and a clean home. We would absolutely book again!”
