“Madison is a gem! Professional, trustworthy, and a true protector for our dogs. She communicated beautifully throughout the week and handled everything with grace. Chacha and Khai were so well-cared for—we couldn't have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend!”

“Ellie house sat and stayed with our sweet Luna over the weekend. We couldn’t be happier about the entire experience! From the meet and greet to Ellie’s communication, punctuality and responsiveness we give her a 10/10. She was respectful to the house and we could barely tell anyone was here. We’ll definitely be using Ellie in the future!”


“Timothy was great! We found him communicative, punctual, and polite. We appreciated the pictures of our pets while we were away and his flexibility made our trip more relaxed. Thanks!”


“Jenae stayed with Iris while we were out of town and we had a great experience! She was super responsive and communicative and flexible when Iris last minute needed to be give some medications while we were gone. Would book again!”

“Lisa was great! We left her with 2 of the 3 dogs and they were the most suspect. She won them over, no problem. Lisa has a nice, calming energy about her and she takes fantastic pics of the pets she cares for - so she could have a side, side hustle being a pet photog! We recommend her highly.”

“Gillian is top notch and so lovely! One doggo has major dietary restrictions and the other has a heart condition and it was so comforting to have someone with her expertise looking after them while I was gone. Everything went super smoothly and I'm so grateful for all the snuggles she gave my boys. Highly recommend!”

“You know you have a good dog/house sitter when your neighbors who have three dogs text you this message: Hey unsolicited feedback that your dog/house sitter seems super consistent and reliable with Zoe. She’s here at the same times and overnight and walks her at the same times. Hope you’re enjoying wherever you are!!!! I’m not stalking her but just notice in my daily life. ? You will not be disappointed! The house also felt cleaner when I got home then when I left and my pup seemed very happy. Thanks Cassandra!”

“Grant is excellent. We have a Rottweiler rescue and Grant is very good with him. He knows a lot about dogs and is intuitive and patient and kind but also firm. He is a wonderful communicator and my husband and I trust him and highly recommend him.”

“Ally was amazing with my cat and dog for a weekend trip! My dog was on multiple medications and has a major fear of fireworks and Ally never missed a dose and gave Marley comfort when needed to soothe her anxieties. She went above and beyond by taking Marley out every couple hours to avoid accidents caused by the medications, and cleaned up after her when she had them.”

“Timothy did an amazing job watching gizmo. I got plenty of updates and gizmo seemed very happy and healthy when I returned home. Also left my apartment clean and tidy as well.”

“Saba was great with our nervous dog! She left our house in tip top shape and both of our dog and cat seemed very well taken care of and happy. Saba communicated and sent pictures which was super appreciated. I would definitely recommend her and would gladly book her again for our pets.”

“Phoebe had a great stay with Sarah! We loved all of the detailed updates and photos, and Sarah took excellent care of both Phoebe and our home. We look forward to continuing to work with Sarah!! :)”


“Racheal was a great sitter. Very responsive , thoughtful and flexible. She was patient with my anxious pup and sent regular updates. Looking forward to future stays.”

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since childhood, growing up with a Scottish terrier, golden retrievers, and a few cats. I currently have a very mellow senior pug and a friendly Scottie who love to host visiting pups. I have many friends who entrust me to care for their dogs when they’re out of town or busy. Pets are family and it’s a privilege to be relied upon for this responsibility. **I am currently only taking one-off walk and drop-in bookings depending on my availability. No recurring walks or drop-ins. Thanks!** I work from home and have a flexible daily schedule with many breaks throughout the day for walks and playtime. I allow plenty of time after work for activity and play. I live near a playfield and can accommodate each dog’s activity level. I do everything I can to ensure your pet’s comfort, following any rules or routines your pet has to keep them happy. Ideally, I want your pet to feel like they’re on vacation too! Due to the size of my house, I cannot board dogs over 60lb please. For walks and drop-ins, I can accept dogs of all sizes.
“Law is super reliable, communicative, and took his time to read through care instructions for both our house and dogs! Our two picky dogs loved him, and came back to our house just as spotless as we left it. We're so glad to have found Law and will be booking him for all of our dog needs from now on!”

“Molly was attentive to all my instructions and was super wonderful with both of my dogs. Updates and photos were provided several times per day and u was able to rest easy knowing my pups were in excellent hands.”

“So kind and understanding of all of our pup's needs! He's was so comfortable with Taj and we knew he was in great hands, especially with his size and demeanor. Such an amazing choice!”

We’ll definitely be using Ellie in the future!

Saba was wonderful with my dog. After our meet and greet, my dog was very happy to see her. She communicated very clearly before, during, and after her stay. My dog takes meds and has side effects from these meds, and Saba handled it all perfectly. Saba also left my apartment very clean. I would absolutely have Saba sit for me again, thank you Saba! :)

This was a quick overnight away as an experiment with how our cats would do. Wing Shan made it very successful. She sent pictures and communicated well. The cats seemed very relaxed upon our return -- which is the ideal goal. Thanks Wing Shan! ( The next experiment will be with our higher maintenance 4lb dog... 😅)

Melissa was fantastic with my boys and I really appreciated her communication. Charles is diabetic and she handled his BG testing and insulin shots wonderfully. Mancy demands a lot of TLC, and Melissa delivered. I came back to a clean home and healthy kitties — I already have another visit booked!

If we could leave a higher review we would - Nikolaj has house sat for us twice. Each time he was stellar with communication and pet sitting. What’s even more impressive is that our oldest dog, doesn’t give kisses to just anyone -the exception being Nikolaj, which means he has the “seal” of approval. Our house is always well looked after and we are confident in Nikolaj ability to watch our dogs!
