“Always great to have Matthew watching our three dogs. He is in unfailingly reliable and attentive and they could not be in better hands. In addition, while watching the house he detected and saved us from a potentially disastrous water leak. Just great knowing Matthew is on the job.”
“Kelsie hid a great job taking care of our dog. He is big and can be challenging and managed his with ease! She even watered our plants while we were gone and sent us pictures of our boy everyday. She was great at communicating! We will certainly use her again!”
“She updated me everyday about my dog Cara about how she was doing and sent me pictures which made me feel very comfortable and secure as I was out of town will definitely be using her again in the future and my dog loved her”
“We went on vacation for several weeks during the 4th holiday with full peace of mind our older pets were in the BEST care with Cole! He was very good about updates and pics while he stayed in our home, and even helped give our Lab his monthly tick med to keep him on schedule. We trust Cole completely and absolutely would have him stay again and do any care in the future when we need it. Thank you Cole so very much!”
“Katherine was so solvent. Sent lots of pictures. She took such wonderful care of my puppies. The house was spotless when I got home and the sheets were in the dryer- bonus!!”
“Lauren was nothing short of awesome! Her communication is great and always provided updates. We needed her an extra day and she was able to work it into her schedule and really come in clutch! Our golden got his first hot spot while we were away and she provided great updates and also took him to the vet and administered needed medications. All animals were happy upon our return and the house was also maintained. Really hope we never have to hire anyone other than Lauren!”
“Abby is amazing! We appreciate her so much. We have three dogs and a cat. Two of our dogs are super sweet with everybody, but our black lab/pitty mix is a connoisseur of people. He does not like just anybody. However, he immediately had no trouble with Abby. He was wagging his tail; let her pet him within a few minutes of meeting her for the first time. We requested Abby stay at the house over the weekend; the dogs and cat were cared for and loved all weekend. We can tell that Abby is an animal lover.”
“Adrianne did the most amazing job taking care of our babies and our home! She kept us updated and made us feel at ease while we were away. Our dogs were so happy and home was in great shape when we returned. 10/10 recommend, we will book her again for sure 🩷”
“Luke was absolutely amazing taking care of my kids. We have a German shepard and a little kitten and they looked wonderful when we came back from our trip. He walked and played with both of them and really took time to make sure they were comfortable and happy. I am beyond satisfied with his care and will definitely try to book again in the future!”
“Pamela went above and beyond in caring for our two dogs and cat. She stuck to their routines flawlessly and followed every request to the letter. Her consistent communication made the whole experience stress free—she sent photos and thorough updates after each visit, keeping us fully in the loop. If you're looking for reliable, compassionate pet care, Pamela is the one to trust. 10/10 would recommend without hesitation!”
“Lauren was great! We felt comfortable and at ease having her stay in our home with Molly and Bear. She sent us pictures and videos of them running and playing in the back yard. We look forward to calling on her the next time we take a trip.”
“Sophie was Outstanding, Exceptional, and a wonderful sitter for Kato! She stopped by the day prior for quick meet and greet, arrived early, was patient, and sent pics/updates throughout the day. I totally felt comfortable with Sophie caring for Kato in my home. She is the best! I will use her services again!”
About: I am a recently retired grandmother who has been taking care of animals for many years. I have a Catahoula and a mixed breed tabby. Animals give me pure joy and now that I’m retired, I would like the opportunity to help other families by taking care of their beloved pets. Please feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions, I look forward to meeting you and your pet. I have grandchildren who mostly live out of town so I will block time off on my calendar that I may be away from home. But because I am retired, I can commit all my time to watching your pet either in-home or if boarding. I will give your pet the same love and attention that I give my own. I will respect your rules and boundaries, but we love lap cuddles sitting on the couch, watching TV with our pets and sleeping with them if they like that kind of thing.
“Heather is AMAZING! She pet sat for my dog and cat (Sid and Stormy) and they LOVED her! My cat, Stormy is usually really shy around strangers but came out and even allowed Heather to administer the oral meds to her that she needs for her IBD. Heather kept in daily communication with me - she sent pics and videos which I really appreciated. I will definitely be using Heather again in the future! 😊”
About: I’ve had dogs as long as I can remember… 40+ years. I have a fenced yard with lots of space to run and play. I can administer meds, fed on a your routine and whatever you need. Disclaimer - for house sitting, my Pyrenees and I are a packet deal. He’d come with me but he is house trained and respectful. As long as he is with me, he’s a happy boy. Also really great with other animals. I work full time but can be available during the week for drop ins. I can accept dogs in my home Friday - Sunday or I can come to your home any time. Let’s chat about what you need and make it work. I have a fenced yard with lots of space to run and play. I can administer meds, fed on a your routine and whatever you need.
“Amazing job , Hannah would give me daily updates on my fur babies . She made me feel at ease while I was out of town. My fur babies loved having her around . I will definitely be using her again.”
“This is our second time using Alex to care for our fur babies! We’ve been so happy with his care for our two dogs, one of which has hind leg paralysis and is not the easiest dog to care for. He’s attentive and trustworthy. He’s easy to communicate with and sends updates as requested. Thanks again!”
About: I’ve been taking care of animals since I was 15. Aside from my own, I’d house sit and follow instructions for family and friends while they were away. I will have plenty of time and flexibility to take care of your animal throughout the week and weekends until school starts again in August. I can care for your animals at your house or mine! Preferably yours for your animals comfort. I’m great at following instructions and can spend as much time as you’d like.

Karynne P.
“I can’t say enough good things about Ka'rynne. They’ve been an absolute gem when it comes to walking my dog. From our first meet-and-greet, it was clear they genuinely cared and took the time to understand my pup’s personality, energy level, and walking preferences. Every walk was on time, and I always got great updates with cute pictures that showed how much fun my dog was having. It gave me so much peace of mind knowing my dog was getting not just exercise, attention, and affection. I came home to a happy pup every time. I’m so grateful we found Ka'rynne—she's a total pro and clearly love what they do!”
