“Casey took wonderful care of our furry ones; especially our dog, Crowley! We will certainly request their assistance again and recommend whenever we can!”
“Miranda was excellent with our senior dog and took great care of him. She made sure he was well fed, got his potty breaks, and had plenty of time for his naps. She kept us updated and sent photos while we were gone. I would highly recommend Miranda and her outstanding care.”
“Leesa stayed with my babies overnight and they were super happy. She took them for walks, snuggled with them, sent me photos, and all was great when I got home. Highly recommend Leesa.”
“Rebecca did an amazing job taking care of our 3 dogs. (2 young, 1 elderly). Even though they acted crazy at the meet and greet, she agreed to housesit with our dogs. She sent daily updates with pictures of our babies. She took great care of our house including feeding aquarium fish, koi fish, watering plants and taking in our mail. We highly recommend Rebecca and will most definitely use her again!”
“Valerie was the best pet sitter we have had. She took great care of our 3 dogs and cat. Usually when we get back they are so relieved for us to be home but I think they missed Valerie which makes me happy. I would highly recommend her. Our dogs can be at times a little much and a little overwhelming, but she took care of them great.”
“Janice was amazing while taking care of Nacho and house sitting. Updated and pics were frequent and reassuring. House and Nacho were well taken care of. Will definitely look to book again. Thank you Janice!”
About: I will happily care for your pet in the comfort of their own home. Whether your pet wants to lay around or go for a hike, we can do that! I have experience training a dog of my own, so I can maintain your usual basic training/rules if needed. I also have experience giving medication. I have plenty availability in my schedule to fit your needs. I am currently available nearly 24/7. I am not away for longer than 8 hours at a time any given day. I will care for your pet in your own home. I will abide by the rules of your home and look after your pet like they were my own.
“Lisa was GREAT taking care of our two somewhat high maintenance dogs while we were gone for a week. We needed someone who could stay at our house most of the time since one of our dogs gets anxious while left alone. Lisa took care of all their specific needs, communicated with us along the way, and kept the house in order despite the messy pups. She even kindly checked the forecast for storms to make sure she was with the dogs since they are scared of storms – which was so considerate. We highly recommend Lisa and will definitely ask her to watch our pups in the future!”
“Michael took care of our dog and cats while we were out of town and he did a great job! He was polite, punctual, and communicative. He sent many updates and photos, which we love! Would definitely recommend him and we plan to use him again!”
“Emma helped out at the last minute when the original plan fell through and I needed someone before an important weekend out of town! She took great care of Finley and he was extremely happy!”
“Tyler was amazing! The pups didn’t seem to miss us at all. She was attentive and provided photos frequently without any prompt. Will definitely be using her again for our pups.”
“Ella was excellent watching my 3 dogs. She stayed at my house while I was away. She spoiled my babies and they loved her. Highly recommend. She sent photos frequently and stayed in contact with me. When I arrived home there were fresh cut flowers and fresh eggs (She also watched chickens and ducks) i am thankful I found Ella. Thank you for doing a wonderful job.”
About: I love animals and am reliable, patient and attentive to their individual needs - whether they need a feeding schedule, long walks or short frequent walks, or just companionship and care. I grew up with both large and small dog breeds. I also have experience with cats and litter box cleanup. I am a small business owner so I can plan my day around your pets' needs. I only care for 1-2 pets from same family in my home at a time. I can care for your pet in your home or at my home. I can care for crated or uncrated animals. My yard is not fenced so potty time would be on leash in the back yard or your litter box. No other pets or children in the home.
“Five Stars across the board! Petey was truly wonderful. Our puppies were especially happy and well cared for. We were sent frequent pictures and update messages. Moving forward, we'll be using no one else to care for our pups.”
“Dorothy has a very sweet and kind spirit. She is excellent with communication and she is willing to go above and beyond to make your pets feel comfortable. We truly appreciate Dorothy hanging out with our Gracie, Mitty and Indie this wekened!!”

“Eli took amazing care of our high energy pup, Mazy, while we were away on vacation. She can be a handful, but Eli handled her with so much patience, energy, and love. We came home to a happy, tired, and well-cared-for dog - which is the dream! He kept us updated with photos and messages, and we felt completely at ease knowing she was in such great hands. Eli is so truly wonderful, and we're so grateful for the care he gave Mazy. We'd book him again every time.”
