“Lillie was so great with all my babies!! She went above & beyond. She kept me updated & sent pics. I’ve already booked her again & will continue to book her in the future! :)”


“Julie is the absolute best! She dog sat at my home for 9 days, and I cannot recommend her highly enough! Julie went out of her way to build a relationship with my sweet girl, Lumi, who was rescued from abuse and neglect and can be reactive, barky, and nervous. Julie is a true dog-lover, and it shows in how much care and professionalism she puts into her dog sitting and walks. She more than willingly took the time to learn all of Lumi’s little quirks and how to manage meds, walks and adventures, etc so that they could have a fun time together. Julie sent photos and updates everyday, and I could see how content and happy Lumi was spending time with her. I’m so thankful to have found Julie, and I look forward to booking her again in the future!”


“Telecia was amazing! 🤩 super easy to work with and willing to help us on such a quick turn around! She arrived timely and was super great with the pups from the beginning! We highly recommend her!”


“Reilly saved me in a time crunch situation and was so flexible with the planning! She kept me updated constantly and took such good care of each of my dogs. They are very different personalities and she really catered to each one of them! Will be using her regularly when her schedule works :)”


About: We have had horses, cows, chickens, goats, dogs, cats, guinea pigs, you name it. I am very good at communicating with them and making them feel at home. I am a nursing student in need of a good paying job with a flexible schedule. This opportunity seemed perfect to me especially since outside of class I don’t get to interact with animals a lot! My home is very safe. Our fields have fences around them and I would keep your fur babies on leashes if they need to be!

About: I've been taking care of animals from fish to Llamas since I was a young child. Nothing makes me happier than being with animals. I've been taking care of my friends' pets for so long, I figured I'd make help other folks too. I make my own schedule currently, so if we are a good fit, it's no problem to make my schedule work around what you need. I am more than happy to accommodate any specific requests and or needs that you may have. I trust your judgment and know how important it is to respect the wishes of the pet owner. Just let me know what you need and I'll be happy to do it.

“Impressed is one word I would use. 1 st time working with Megan, so, you can imagine I was nervous, but, every step of the way, Megan eased my trepidations starting with the dialogue and text communication at the start. First meeting was great and the service and updates throughout were perfect. Came home to a cleaner house than when I left and dogs that were safe, happy, and healthy. Giving a rating would be disrespectful so I will close with I will be using Megan again happily.”


“I am so glad that I found Beth. She did an excellent job of taking care of my animals and loving them. And they loved her back. As far as I’m concerned she is my one and only pet sitter from now on. She goes over and beyond. I feel very comfortable leaving my fur babies in her care.”


“We used Storm on 2 different occasions. Both times we were very happy with the care she provided for my Cooper. We spent 8 days in Aruba so being out of the country Added to my concerns of leaving my big boy behind. But Storm came through taking such care of Cooper. She took a lot of pictures along with daily updates. So if you need a sitter I highly recommend Storm for your sweet babies. Rick”
