I also water plants and grab your mail. I am easy going and love to play with your dogs and will treat them as my own. I work full time so i am not able to let them out during the day because my lunch is only half an hour. I am very excited to talk to you and see what we can work out with your precious dogs. If you have cats i will take care of them and clean the litter boxes. Thanks for looking at me. I currently work full time from Tuesday through Saturday. As soon as I leave work I head to your house to care for your animals. I have a cat so I don’t bring your animals home with me. When I am in your home I do my best to keep their routine and care for them like they are my own.

“Darcie took fantastic care of all our animals while we were gone. It was my first time using a house sitter so I was a little nervous, but I had nothing to worry about. They came over ahead of time and did a meet and greet so the dogs were comfortable with them and followed all our instructions. I highly recommend Darcie if you’re looking for a house sitter.”

“We absolutely loved having Madeline watch our two pups while we were on vacation!

She also cleaned the house, washed all linens, and left the house in perfect shape. We’d be honored to have her as a sitter again!”


“Katie did a Fantastic job! Our dog Annie gets anxious with new people, and Katie handled it like a pro. Annie quickly became comfortable with Katie, and was in great shape when we returned. The house was also clean!”


“We cannot recommend Edna highly enough! She recently watched our two mini dachshunds, Tux and Moo, and exceeded all our expectations. From the moment we met her, we could tell how kind and caring she is, and she made us feel completely at ease leaving our dogs in her care. Edna kept our home spotless while we were away, and she consistently checked in with us to provide updates. She even sent us the sweetest pictures of Tux and Moo, which made us feel so connected and reassured. It was clear they were happy, comfortable, and well-loved under her care. If you’re looking for someone who will go above and beyond for your pets and treat them like family, Edna is the person for you. We would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a responsible, thoughtful, and caring pet sitter!”


“Highly recommend. Brianna stayed at our place for over a week and took care of everyone (2 large dogs, 2 cats, fish, houseplants, and the garden). She was easy to communicate with, very responsive, and it was such a relief to have her housesit while we were out of the country. I will book with her again in the future!”


“She is everything we could have asked for and more in a sitter! With just moving here we didn’t know anyone to watch our dogs. She goes above and beyond, numerous pictures a day, great communication, even watering my plants for me! I will continue to trust her with my pets and home for the future!”

“Natalie was so great! I didn’t have to worry for a second that my dog wasn’t being taken care of. Very kind and obviously cared to make sure everything was going okay. The best, will book again!!! 💖”


About: I’ve enjoyed watching some friends dogs espcially smaller ones. They are so sweet. I fed them, took them outside, played with them, and provided companionship while the owners were away. I am currently working 11-8 so could be there with the animals in the morning and evening. The animals would be well taken care of. I don’t have a place for animals at my home, but while watching my friends animals I made sure to leave quickly while they were distracted. I also made sure to have them put in their crate before leaving.
