Gabby was great with my pup Remy! Even when Remy was giving her a hard time on walks, Gabby was sure to keep his routine the same while I was away. She left my home clean and tidy as well!

Grace watched our senior pup for a week. He is very boring to watch - he just likes to sleep and hang out (no walks or play - too old for that nonsense anymore lol) Jett is very particular who he likes and he was lying next to Grace by the end of the week! WOW! We are so happy with Grace - always kept us updated on our little guy and was reliable and took care of Jett perfectly! Highly recommend, Grace to watch your babies!

We were so fortunate that Daniela watched our pup and took excellent care of her and of our home while we were away for a trip. We placed our confidence in her and were not disappointed. Daniela communicated with us often, took our pup for longer walks than we requested, and was very considerate in our home. Daniela clearly cares a lot about animals and we couldn't ask for anything more in a sitter. We highly recommend her to anyone who is looking to have their pup spoiled and well taken care of.

They were great!! It was my first time using a sitter and I have an anxious dog that takes medication. They were so patient with him and updated us every step of the way! I feel so much more comfortable knowing I have people who can watch my boy when we are away 🤍

About: For the past ten years, I’ve dedicated myself to providing professional, high-quality pet care, specifically focusing on dog walking/sitting. Over the last decade, I haven’t just walked dogs—I’ve managed schedules, built deep trust with clients, and mastered the art of understanding animal behavior and safety. Whether navigating the logistics of running a busy daily schedule or ensuring that every dog in my care receives personalized attention and exercise, I treat the responsibility with the highest level of professionalism. Ten years in this industry has taught me incredible time management, adaptability, and how to deliver exceptional, reliable service that keeps clients coming back Im my own boss! I work my own hours and will schedule according to YOUR needs!! Early mornings, mid day or late nights… whatever works for you! Animals will be kept at close distance and leashed. I have my own transportation (if needed). When I am with the pet my attention is completely focused on them!

We could not be more grateful for Raechel’s flexibility and communication the last week as we navigated finding pet care for a last-minute funeral. We returned home to a spotless house and happy, well cared for pets - with the TV turned on to one of their favorite programs, a detail that made us so happy. We will absolutely be booking with Raechel again!

About: I've had dogs all my life, the most recently i had a awesome miniature poodle who I was fortunate to love and care for 17 years, so I am familiar with the needs of senior dogs. My schedule is fairly open every day after about 9 or ten am. I'd like a regular opportunity, but one offs will be good as well I am available for pet sitting at the clients home, but due to younger kids I can accommodate pets at my home. Walking and feeding and playing is ideal

About: I have had 2 small dogs for about 14 years now that I have loved and cared for since they were puppies. I volunteered at a local animal shelter in the cattery and kitten nursery where I cleaned cages, fed, and comforted the cats and kittens. I have also fostered 3 kittens until they found their forever homes. I have been taking care of many friends and families pets over the past few years and would love to help others as well now! I have a very flexible full time work from home career that I can do from anywhere so I can stay home with your pets and care for them throughout the day. I am open to doing whatever is needed or requested. I can be accommodating to make sure clients are happy and pets are well cared for.

In a client’s home, I am respectful of the space and make sure pets get plenty of attention, playtime, and care while the owners are away.

Rebecca was absolutely fantastic with our fur babies! We have a cat and an older dog with digestive issues that requires specific care. Usually, we travel with our pets, but unfortunately, this time, we couldn’t. I’m a nervous wreck when I leave them with anyone else because of past experiences and illnesses that have occurred in my absence. Before booking, Rebecca was completely transparent about any prior commitments that might take her away from our home for a few hours. She wanted to ensure that this would still be a good fit for our dog’s well-being. I really appreciated that Rebecca was incredibly kind and attuned to the needs of our animals. She handled them with the utmost patience and understanding. I believe her to be incredibly trustworthy, and both our dog and cat absolutely adored her. I received countless photos, videos, and updates of our dog doing her happy dance, taking naps, and snuggling up on the couch with Rebecca. One day our dog had an upset stomach which is always a cause for concern with her chronic health issues, and Rebecca went above and beyond to ensure that she did everything possible to care for her properly. She kept me fully in the loop and even offered to cook rice and broth for her in case she needed to settle her stomach. I mentioned that sweet potato usually helps her eat again if needed, and Rebecca offered to drive and pick one up so that she could ensure it was a good quality for my dog, rather than me having one delivered to the house: Thankfully my dog finally decided to eat her food and got better in the evening but like I said, she went above and beyond. I would/will hire Rebecca again and entrust her with our fur babies without hesitation. She was simply phenomenal and is a pet owner’s dream come true. Rebecca, Thank you so much for taking such excellent care of our fur babies!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs ranging from different sizes and breeds since I was 17. Neighbors, friends, and coworkers have trusted me to walk, feed, and play with their dogs, and as a lifelong pet owner myself, I understand how crucial it is to have peace of mind when leaving your pet with a sitter. I’m attentive, empathetic, and detail-oriented, making sure every pup feels safe, loved, and comfortable whether it’s energetic walks, cuddle time, or sticking to their routine. I work full-time but am available after work for walks, drop-ins, play time, or feeding, with flexible care to fit your pet’s needs Friday through Sunday. Your pet’s comfort and happiness are my top priority! I treat every pet like family, providing safe, loving care in the comfort of your home. I’m hyper vigilant of my surroundings, making sure all doors and potential escape routes are secured, while following your instructions closely to keep your furry friend happy, calm, and secure.

Jordyn is the most thoughtful and caring! We needed some support with our newly adopted rescue and she went above and beyond to ensure our new pup was as comfortable as possible in our home while we were away. She jumped at the opportunity, met with us ahead of time on a tight turnaround, was super flexible and communicative, and helped us with some training challenges we were having. We appreciate Jordyn and recommend her services!!

Natalie took great care of our dog while we were away! Our dog is very shy and she was so good with him. She sent updates often that made me feel at ease. She left our house very clean and just as we left it. I can tell he really enjoyed spending time with Natalie. We will definitely book with her again!

Isabella did a wonderful job watching my dog. She was reliable, caring, accommodating and flexible. She provided my dog with thoughtful care while we were away. She created a nice day to day schedule that met all the needs of my dog. She provided photo updates as well as notifications of what she was doing and when she was coming or going. I would happily book with Isabella again.
