Kendra is amazing!! From our first meet and greet, she let my 90lb dog give her kisses all over her face and they were comfortable together right off the bat. She gave proactive updates and was great at communicating while we were gone. We will definitely be booking with Kendra again!!

Vanessa did an excellent job with my two dogs. She was able to help with their manner issues and I was very pleased. I would certainly request her for my next trip. The dogs were very happy with her also.

Patty is very attentive and my fur baby loved having her take care of him. I didn’t need to worry while I was away because Patty went above and beyond to make sure my baby felt safe, loved and all of his needs were taken care of and Patty sent me photos/videos of my doggie every day too. Patty is the very best!

Daniel once again was willing to cover a last minute booking. I don’t worry at all when he is keeping an eye on things. One of my dogs has been having stomach issues and he took great care of her & administered her medicine daily. Thanks so much Daniel!

About: I don’t just watch pets, I build trust with them. By learning their routines and personalities, I create a calm, familiar experience that keeps them happy, comfortable, and stress-free while you’re away. I plan my weekly schedule around the pets in my care to ensure I can meet their specific needs—whether that’s regular walks, medication timing, feeding routines, or extra attention. I keep a consistent routine so pets feel comfortable and owners can rely on dependable care. At this time, I offer pet care exclusively in my client’s home. While I’m not able to host pets in my own space, I’ve found that staying in their home keeps them more relaxed and comfortable. I stick closely to their usual routine, meals, walks, playtime, and any special care so they feel safe and well cared for while you’re gone.

I had an amazing experience with Kailyn K. during her house sitting service from May 5 to May 7, 2026. She was fantastic with my dog, providing loving care and attention. Kailyn kept me updated with regular messages and cute photos, which really eased my mind while I was away. It was clear that she genuinely cared about my dog’s well-being, ensuring he was well-fed, exercised, and happy. I highly recommend Kailyn for anyone looking for a dependable and caring pet sitter. I will definitely reach out to her again in the future!

We are thrilled with the amazing job Frankie did while taking care of our dog, Mochi. From the moment we met Frankie, it was clear that she genuinely cares for animals. Throughout the entire time, she was incredibly caring and attentive to Mochi’s needs. We especially appreciated the regular updates and photos she sent us, which gave us peace of mind knowing that Mochi was in good hands. Mochi absolutely loved her, and we could tell he was happy and comfortable. We highly recommend Frankie to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate puppy sitter. Thank you, Frankie, for your outstanding service!

About: I have fostered puppies and kittens, and I have grown up around animals my whole life. I have a love for all pets, and I try to be patient to them and their feelings. Very flexible availability. Other than dog sitting I work at a restaurant as a hostess and i’ll spend my time at the gym. Leaving me with LOTSS of time to care for the little ones. In my home we take our dogs out to go potty every hour or so, or if we see them by the door. We have crated animals before bedtime, and dogs are allowed on furniture. Personally I love my dogs roaming free in my home but of course everyone is different.

We are so grateful for Vanessa's help pet and house sitting for us while we were out of the state! Everything went great and Vanessa kept us well informed with updates and photos throughout our time away. We appreciate her transparency and all the love she gave to our pups during their visit. They enjoyed walks and playtime, punctual meals / meds and a few treats, and some good cuddles---exactly what they needed! We highly recommend Vanessa to other pet parents and will look forward to booking with her again in the future.

Our experience with Rebecca was excellent from start to finish. She was attentive, reliable, and clearly cared for our three dogs—Enzo, Brody, and Bella—as if they were her own. We especially appreciated the frequent updates and photos, which helped us feel confident and at ease while we were away. She was also flexible and accommodating when our return was delayed, which we truly valued. Her communication and care made the entire process seamless and worry-free. We would not hesitate to book Rebecca again and highly recommend her services.

Jaime was housesitting for my 12 lb dog. She was here much of the day and all night. She tried walking Ginger but Ginger was a little stubborn. Hopefully, better luck next time. She left my home in good condition after a week and appears they played a lot with her toys. She also did a couple of extra things in the yard for me. I will definitely touch base with her in future
