“Taryn was great with our animals and very responsive with us while we were away. Can’t compliment her enough and appreciate with the quality of her work.”

“Lulu is awesome with our kitties. She always goes above and beyond to ensure they are happy and adjusting well while we are gone. She updates us regularly which helps to ease our minds too. She is the best!!”


“Erin is wonderful! She house and dog sat for two weeks. Trustworthy and loving to our two dogs and send photos of them every day. Outstanding communicator. Will use again and again!”


“Gave updates, took very good care of my dogs. Even when i was sick & unresponsive for a few days, she still gave updates and kept me in the know. I appreciate all the help & care she gave my boys! Super happy.”


“Deidre was great! Took good care of my girls and my house. She kept me very informed and sent lots of pics. She went above and beyond. Would use her services again!”


“Rachel did an amazing job with our dogs. We were able to enjoy our vacation, knowing she was taking such good care of them. We got daily updates, with pictures. She gladly brought in mail and watered plants for us. She is very accommodating and fit us in to her schedule. She was able to pop in for 3 afternoons visits before her time here started when our son wasn’t able to get here during the day to let them out. We will definitely be calling her for future jobs! She’s a gem!!”


“The dogs I know were well taken care of - I got updates twice a day. A friend disengaged the garage door for the mechanism and Ben fixed it for me!!! While he didn’t have to take care of my cat he cleaned out the litter box before I came home. When Neville met Ben , Neville is not a jumper at all, but he immediately climbed in Ben’s lap to be loved on by him. And Ben was awesome and let him! I highly recommend him and will use his services in the future!!”


“Second time using her and she’s fantastic. Cares for all 5 of our animals like they are her own. She sends photo updates of them during the stay. I know she gives them all love while she is here because they don’t instantly demand cuddles when we get back. Can’t thank her enough.”


“I'm hesitant to leave Nathan another 5 star review because I'm worried he will get too popular and won't be available next time we need him. But the truth is, he is amazing and we appreciate him so much! He takes amazing care of our dogs and home. I was shocked to come home and find that he cleaned up the dog waste in our yard. I've never had a sitter do this!”


“Abby is the most wonderful sitter ever. Our dogs love her. When we get home they act like they didn’t miss us at all. The outstanding care and love that they receive while we are gone is obvious. Abby leaves the house cleaner than when she found it. I thought we were neat. We totally trust Abby and look forward to many more stays. 10 stars. She is the best”


“Kadyn did a wonderful job watching our two kitties and left our apartment better than she found it. She was an excellent communicator and followed all our instructions exactly. Most importantly, our cats both seemed happy and healthy all in the pictures she sent!”


“Emily was absolutely amazing! So professional, easy to work with, and genuinely kind. She kept me updated with the sweetest pictures and gave me total peace of mind while I was away. Wrigley was clearly so happy and well cared for, which means the world to me. Communication was great the whole time, and I could tell she really went above and beyond. I’ll definitely be booking with her again!”


“Randy was great and super communicative. Our old pitbull had a great time and we were able to enjoy our vacation without worry! Highly recommended!”


“Kate is the best. We set a time and she offered to come early to make sure we had plenty of time to get to the Nugget game, she sent us pictures of our puppies. She is a real trooper to sit in our hotel room for over 5 hours entertaining and walking our babies. I highly recommend her. We have used other pet sitters in the past, and Kate was very professional, friendly and caring.”


About: I have taken care of dogs for as long as I can remember. Family, friends and neighbors have trusted me to take great care of their fur babies and I have always loved doing so! I have taken care of dogs from all ages such as puppies to senior dogs and I also don’t mind on the size of your dog as I have cared for dogs of all sizes. I currently work full time mostly night shifts so my obscure schedule will allow to me to do late night or early morning pet sitting ! I can always try to accommodate to some day sitting. I can easily learn feeding and walking schedules. I have experience giving vitamins/medications. If your fur baby needs any special care I am happy to help.

“Excellent communication. Great job taking care of our special need dogs while we were away. This was our first time leaving the dogs at home so we wanted to make sure they were left in good hands. So glad we went with Delaney. We will definitely go with her again. Highly recommended.”


About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember! Growing up, I cared for small pets like hamsters and guinea pigs, and later, I helped care for our family dog who lived to be over 15 years old. Toward the end of her life, she was blind and deaf, and I was there for her every step of the way, making sure she was as comfortable and loved as possible. I’ve always been around extended family pets, so animals have been a big part of my life. Recently, I had the joy of pet sitting a puppy for three weeks while the owner was out of the country. It was such a rewarding experience! I’d love the opportunity to care for senior dogs, as I know how important it is for them to have gentle, loving care in a peaceful environment. I live in a quiet neighborhood with a cozy home, perfect for dogs who need a calm, comfortable place to stay. As a homeschool mom who works from home, I have the flexibility and availability to provide consistent, dedicated care for pets. My schedule allows me to be home throughout the day, ensuring that your pet receives plenty of attention, walks, and playtime. Whether it’s daily care or longer stays, I’m able to give pets the love and care they deserve without any interruptions to my routine. I care for pets in my home just like they were my own, ensuring a safe, comfortable, and loving environment. My home is in a quiet neighborhood, perfect for peaceful walks and playtime. I make sure pets feel at ease with plenty of cozy spaces to rest and relax. Safety is my top priority—I keep a close eye on them at all times and make sure they’re secure indoors and outdoors. I also take the time to understand each pet’s individual needs, whether it’s special feeding schedules, medications, or extra attention, so they feel right at home. Your pet’s happiness and well-being are always my focus, and I’m committed to providing them with a safe, trusting environment during their stay.
