1. Erin S.

“So grateful to have found Erin! She was so wonderful with my two dogs over the holidays! She sent me several updates throughout the day & left my home spotless. She has such a warm spirit & loved on my boys so well while I was traveling. I can’t recommend her enough!”


2. Ell H.

“Ell was great! She was attentive to our instructions of care and provided updates for us! We were at ease knowing they were in good hands! 10/10 would recommend booking Ell!”


3. Taryn T.

“Taryn is wonderful. We will definitely hire her again. She’s very pleasant and great with our pets. They warmed to her immediately. She’s a problem solver (we had a minor plumbing issue which she solved on her own but contacted us). She stays in touch just enough so we know all is well but not so much that we can’t enjoy our time away. She went above and beyond. Excellent pet and house sitter!”


4. Rachel G.

“We really appreciated that Rachel gave us updates while we were away and included photos of our two dogs. She was responsible and respectful of our home.”


5. Deidre C.

“Diedre was an excellent choice! Communication was great, she sent me daily photos and videos of my dogs, and made sure they got their walks and meals on time. She was very loving and caring with them. I would definitely book with her again for future vacations!”


6. Nathan G.

“Nathan was very quick to respond and awesome communication! We appreciate him staying at our house watching our 2 dogs. He was very respnsible, took the dogs on walks, and was a great sitter. We look forward to using him again.”


7. Ellie V.

“Ellie was amazing!! She stayed in our house with our four fur babies for almost two weeks, and we were never worried about them, their happiness, or their safety. Even when the power went out, she went above and beyond to take care of everyone. She sent us updates every day, and we were so happy to know everyone was in good hands! The fact that she works from home is SUCH a gift, too! She was present, engaged, and we really felt like the money was well-spent.”


8. Mirette Z.

“Was timely and present with the doggos! They’re like children so all you can hope is someone will show up and love them while you’re away like you would! Will definitely use her again :)”


9. Rachel A.

“Made our vacation better knowing our lil guy was in good hands.”


10. Delaney S.

“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.”


11. Randall B.


“2nd stay and Zoey was very happy to see Randy when he arrived this made us very at ease. Again received lots of pictures throughout our vacation which allowed us to see her and know she was happy. Upon return to the house it was spotless and the dishwasher had been ran and sheets were in the wash. Randy did a great job of communicating with us . Will for sure use him again.”


12. Jennifer P.

“Jennifer has been so fantastic! I've used her twice already and will definitely be using her again! My puppy had an absolute blast and was so sad when she had to go. Highly recommend!”


13. Jonathan C.

“Jonathan was phenomenal! I use sitters a lot for work and don’t say that lightly. Ellie was nervous upon meeting since I didn’t introduce her (another sitter cancelled last minute). He waited patiently for her to adjust and she loved him! He also stayed later with her when my flight was delayed. I’m so grateful he was available. He sent videos and photos so I knew she was well cared for. I’d recommend him for your next stay and would use him again!”

“Took great care of pongo and Bork chop, and sent lots of daily updates with photos making my first time leaving both of them while out of town much more relaxing, knowing they were in great hands!”


15. Amber D.
“Excellent care of our 3 dogs during our time on vacation. Communicative and attentive.”


16. Ruth S.
“Ruth is very caring and loving towards animals. I have had Ruth watch my two cats multiple times while I was on vacation and she did an excellent job. She stayed with the kitties to play with them and make sure they weren't lonely while I was away, fed them and changed their water and litter. She was very attentive to their needs and would let me know anything I needed to know. I would highly recommend her! Quinn L.”


17. Gracie F.

“We loved having Gracie watch our dog! She was great at giving us updates, was very responsive, and did everything we asked for getting/ leaving our keys. Plus our dog seemed very well taken care of and happy once we were home! Will definitely use Gracie again!”


18. Samuel R.
“Sam is an excellent pet caregiver! I’ve trusted him with my dogs and cats multiple times, and he is always very attentive and loving with my animals. My pets even have special dietary needs and medications, and I know I can trust that he will give them everything they need. I would definitely recommend him!”


19. Kate S.



“Kate is wonderful. She really puts in the extra time to listen to what the owner is working on with their pup! I am impressed by how wonderful she is with dogs and she has a natural ability to make them feel so loved and nurtured.”


20. Derrika S.
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.
