“Ashley did such an incredible job watching my dog, I wish I could give her more than five stars. She was so attentive to his needs and was sure to send me so many pictures of my little guy while I was gone. I already told her we’d be using her again, because I’ve been so whole-heartedly impressed with her. She woke up early and stayed up late to adjust to my crazy schedule while traveling. Thank you so much, Ashley.”


“Kristina took amazing care of Darby!! She bought her toys and treats. I could tell Darby had a great time and I enjoyed my vacation knowing my dog was in good hands :)”


“David did a great job watching our dog. He provided us with timely updates as well. I highly recommend David war hing anyone's dog as he clearly has a lot of experience and cares about the dogs he watches.”


“Kaylee was so great with my anxious pup Daisy! very professional, kind and caring! Definitely would recommend to any pet owners looking for a sitter :)”


“Sly had the best time with Victoria, Chris, and Loki! She is a very nervous dog and has separation anxiety and when I picked her up she was in great spirits, was relaxed the rest of the evening, and slept really well for being away for two nights. Would absolutely book again and Victoria was very flexible to work with my schedule!”


“Great communication and a great sitter for Salsa. Salsa loved her time with Sprinkles and Jasmine. I definitely will use Jasmine again. Salsa enjoyed her adventure to the dog park.”


“Noah was fantastic looking after our dog, Bradley, while we were out of town for a few days. Bradley had a really great time staying with him and with his dog, Ginsy! We got lots of pictures and updates of Bradley looking right at home with Noah and Ginsy. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a home away from home for their dog!”



“Our dog was happy and exhausted when he arrived home. He helped Nicole garden, and played well with her dogs. It was clear from her many texts that she enjoyed our dog's exuberant personality. :) Nicole was kind enough to drop by the next morning with a water bowl that we had left.”


“Awesome sitters! They took great care of Winnie and provided lots of photos and updates. Great communication and reliability. I could tell Winnie got lots of attention and care.”


“Our puppy had a wonderful time with Craig! He took him on daily walks to different parks in the area. He was also very responsive and sent pictures to let us know how our little guy was doing.”


“Joseph took great care of my dog while boarding during a long weekend. He was responsive and sent plenty updates. Joseph understood my dogs individual needs very well and made sure to engage him. My dog Ivan came home a satisfied (and tired) boy! Will definitely continue to utilize his service .”


“Porter had the best time ever! We got so many pictures and follow up and knew he was in the best hands. Will definitely use for trips in the future. Thank you so so much!”


“Millie was well cared for and in good hands. I really appreciated the updates and was able to go on vacation with peace of mind that our family dog was doing great. I would definitely recommend Kathy.”


“Yurim was an amazing companion for Lucy and communicated everyday with us while we were away! I hope to connect with her again when we need support for Lucy during another trip. Thank you Yurim!”

“Was thrilled to have Stephanie watch Clowe! I always got updates on how she was doing, and plenty of pictures! Next time I need somebody to watch my pup, Stephanie will be the first person I’m calling. Thanks!!!”


“This is the second time I’ve had Jeshima watch my dog and I am extremely happy with her care! She is an excellent communicator (sent me text, pictures and video updates of my dog). But aside from that she is genuine and really cared for my dog as if she were her own. She is always professional, and flexible with any requests that I had. I highly recommend her, and would utilize her as a sitter again without hesitation!”

“Kerri was fantastic with our dog, very communicative, thoughtful with her questions to get to know us and our dog, and I was confident he was being taken care of as good as (probably better) he is at home! Our dog is leash aggressive and she managed him with no problem. She will be top of our list next time we look for a sitter for our dog.”


“Marygrace was pleasant and easy to communicate with, and sent lots of nice photos during Guapo's stay! It looked like he had a lot of fun. She also has a fenced yard big enough for frisbee, which is a huge plus!”


About: As an animal lover, I truly feel that being around animals is my happiest place. For the past six years, I've cared for three German Shepherds and a cat-both during the day and overnight. Not only did I enjoy it, but I genuinely craved the relationship. I understand how hard it can be to trust someone-not just with your beloved animals, but also with your home. That's why I take pride in being reliable, respectful, and attentive. I hope to meet you soon. 1. Morning Walks & Feeding: I start my day early, so morning walks and feedings are easy to fit into my routine. I enjoy getting fresh air and movement first thing, and pet care fits perfectly into that rhythm. 2. Midday Check-ins or Playtime: I often work from home or have a flexible midday schedule, so I can do potty breaks, walks, or play sessions during lunch hours. These breaks actually energize me and give structure to my day. 3. Evening Wind-down: Evening walks, dinner, and some cuddle time are a nice way to unwind from the day. I usually reserve evenings for low-stress activities, and spending time with pets is relaxing and fulfilling. 4. Sleepover Flexibility: I'm available for overnight stays when needed and plan ahead to ensure I'm fully present for the pets in my care. Routine and Comfort I follow the pet’s usual routine as closely as possible—feeding, walks, potty breaks, and playtime—so they feel safe and secure. I take time to get to know each pet’s personality, preferences, and energy level, adjusting my approach to meet their needs. 🍽️ Feeding and Hydration I prepare meals according to the client’s instructions and make sure fresh water is always available. I double-check feeding schedules and portion sizes to ensure consistency. 🧼 Cleanliness and Hygiene I clean up after the pets—litter boxes, food bowls, toys, and accidents if they happen—so the home stays tidy. I wipe paws if needed after walks and make sure pets are comfortable and clean. 🎾 Exercise and Enrichment I play with dogs or cats to keep them active and engaged—walks, toys, fetch, laser pointers, or cuddles depending on what they love. If the pet is older or has health needs, I provide gentle interaction and quiet companionship. 🩺 Health and Safety I monitor for any changes in behavior, appetite, or health, and I contact the owner immediately if anything seems off. I’m comfortable administering medication if needed (oral, topical, or injection, depending on my experience and your instructions). 📝 Communication and Updates I send daily updates with photos or videos so clients can feel at ease while they’re away. I’m responsive and available for check-ins or questions during the sit. 🛋️ Respect for the Home I treat the home with the same care and respect I would want in mine—tidy, secure, and peaceful. I follow house rules (lights, trash, alarms, etc.) and always leave the home in great shape.
