“Thank you Annika for taking great care of our 4 dogs! Knowing that they were in good care allowed us to enjoy our time away for the family wedding. The great communication while we were out of town really helped us so we didn't miss the dogs so much! We highly recommend Annika for any pet related care! She gets to know your pet and forms a bond which reduces the stress on you and your pets. Thank you again for being so awesome!”
“Hannah was great. We left our 3 month old kittens and asked her to house sit. She was very communicative and kept us updated when we reached out. The kittens were happy and healthy when we got home. She also took great care of the house and brought in our mail. We would definitely recommend.”
About: I have petsat and walked dogs for quite a few years. I grew up with larger dogs and will be sure to treat yours with the utmost love and care. I have experience with animals of all sizes & I can easily adapt to the routine of your fur babies, and will prioritize them above anything else as my love for animals is that immense. I also have experience with cats & rabbits. I have my two cats named Moose & Pebble, 11 parakeets, and a dog named Moo. I update my availability weekly, but I will always be communicative about it. This is something I do in my free time and thoroughly enjoy spending time with doing. I am very passionate about animals. I follow written instructions to a T. I am very respectful of people’s homes and can be trusted. I send hourly updates whenever possible and make sure to be communicative when it comes to your fur baby or any possible questions that may pop up.
“Erik was an excellent sitter! Erik provided lots of updates and pictures and I could tell he got to know each of the cat’s personalities. It was clear he spent lots of quality time with them - played, fed, and cuddled like they were his own. My house was clean and tidy when I returned. 10/10 would book again!”
“Lauren went above and beyond to take care of my babies, one of whom is immunosuppressed. She sent constant pictures and updates which showed my pups over the moon with how happy they were with her. She stayed at my house with them and left the place incredibly clean. Will definitely be rebooking her in the future and would highly recommend her!”
“Randi stayed with our little guy over a long weekend and did a great job. She was super communicative and sent lots of pics. Came home to a happy healthy doggo! Highly recommended”
“Maciyah was so great with my dogs and they were instantly comfortable with her during our meet and greet. I also hot tons of pictures during her stay and came home to a super happy dog, I highly recommend!”
“Jennifer was great! She watched my three quirky pitty babies over the 4th of July weekend. Communication was great, lots of pictures and all the puppies looked to be having fun :) I would definitely book again and recommend to friends.”
“Ashton was very accommodating and treated my 3 year old Corgi very well. Very professional and timely. Highly recommended! Will definitely utilize her services again.”
“Erin did a fantastic job caring for our two doggies while we were away for a few days. She kept us updated daily on how they were doing and sent photos every day. She also responded quickly to my messages. Riley and Jovie loved having her stay with them!”
“Kristina was wonderful ! Very responsible and so loving towards My pooch Marley ! He loves her from day one ! I’d highly recommend her ! My dog is not an easy personality and he was happy as can be upon my return ! 5 stars”
“Melissa is very communicative during her stays and visits. It’s very helpful to know Bubs is being taken care of so well! We appreciate the kindness she shows to our pup. And she is a good houseguest!”
About: I bring not just experience, but heartfelt understanding. I currently have two young, energetic dogs and had the privilege of loving my previous senior dog. That journey taught me the full spectrum of pet care-from playful puppyhood to the tender needs of aging companions. I work full-time in healthcare, mostly from home. With an internet connection I can work almost anywhere. My dogs are rarely left at home for more than a few hours and never left alone overnight. I give that same time and energy to your pets. I will follow whatever guidelines you prefer within your home. Whether that’s crating, sleeping on the bed, or their own special bed. I take frequent walks (if desired) and do not leave pets outside unattended.
“Kayla was an outstanding house sitter while I was out of town. She took great care of my animals and sent regular pictures and updates to keep me informed. She left my space clean and organized and I couldn’t even tell anyone else was there when I got home! Book with Kayla with confidence she will take great care of your pets and is incredibly respectful of your space.”
“Nicole cared for our 2, high maintenance Great Danes for a week in our home. She was fabulous. Our younger Dane has separation anxiety when we leave. Nicole was able to conquer his anxiety and gain his trust quickly. He was going outside ,eating and playing with toys. The older Dane was receiving his own attention and playtime. We came home to happy dogs, clean house and delicious cookies. I’m already booking with her again. She’s a gem!”
“I found Allie after getting called for a last minute work trip and I wish I found her sooner!!!! She was quick to respond and accommodating to my last minute schedule. She gave my husky all of the love and attention she needed while I was away and stayed in contact with regular updates so I could be worry free! She went above and beyond during her stay with my pup and it was so nice to be able to come right home to her happy as ever. I can be extremely picky when it comes to my pups care but Allie is top notch. 10/10 !!!!”

Robyn did an amazing job housitting for our two pets. We really couldn’t ask for more. She sent regular and detailed updates/pictures and was extremely communicative. She went above and beyond with taking care of the animals and the house. She handled everything with ease and grace and we came home to a very happy dog and cat as well as sparkling house. We would give her our highest recommendation.
Chloee was faaaantastic! She was easy to coordinate a pre-sit meeting and Moose adored her. She was also easy to communicate with and was flexible when it came to some uncertainty around exact family travel plans, as well as when Moose caught a GI bug right before her stay and required a little more of a close eye and some extra medication. She was also a clean and courteous house guest — I highly recommend Chloee and would very happily book with her again!
Carson took care of my dog, Pickles, this past weekend for the first time and everything went great. He met with me and Pickles b4 my trip and to discuss his schedule and care and I could tell Pickles would b comfortable with Carson caring for him while I was on my trip. Have already booked a couple of daytime walks in September with him. House was tidied up and garbage was taken out too. Highly recommend!!!
