“Amber was absolutely wonderful with our two dogs!! She kept us very updated with pictures and messages and even checked in with us on a potential medical issue. They both need oral medication and she was comfortable with that and made sure they had what they needed. We loved having her take care of our pups and felt confident they were safe and happy with her! We’d recommend her to any other families that need someone to love and care for their pets while they’re away!”


“Courtlin took excellent care of my pups and was adaptable every time I had an unexpected change through the week. Highly recommend her!”


“Kris was absolutely wonderful with our 4 babies. She treated them like her own and loved them so much. We have 2 that aren’t a big fan of meeting new people and she even had them coming up to her and loving on her. She sent several pictures throughout her stay so that we knew the kiddos were having fun and doing well. We will definitely be using her in the future!”


“Saíra did a great job! She established an great rapport with our Pyrenees before we left. While we were gone she took wonderful care of our home and both our dogs.

“Kaitlyn did an amazing job and on short notice too. She came over before to meet and greet and was so pleasant and cheerful. Our fur babies were so well taken care of while we were out of town.

“Glenn was wonderful with my furry kiddos! He checked in & provided photos which allowed me to know that they were happy & well-taken care of, which in turn, allowed me to enjoy my trip!! I'd highly recommend him to anyone that is looking for a conscientious, knowledgeable walker/sitter for their pets!”


“It is honestly hard to put into words how great an experience I had with Lois without sounding hyperbolic. She was a perfect guardian of my home, my kitties, and my anxious heart. I'd never left my kitties for even a night, and I'd never used a sitting service but was offered the chance to visit my son in the Netherlands for 3 weeks and I couldn't pass it up. I just needed to feel at peace with how I left things at home. Lois was wonderful. She came over early for a meet and greet, and it was immediately obvious she is a kind, intelligent, and gentle person. I have two cats from a horrible hoarding situation who have taken years to feel safe, and they both took to her immediately! My stray, who came to me barely weaned, took a while but even he came around (he is scared of the cars going by the house). She took notes! (Something I always wished people I trained at work would do) Lois and I chatted a bit fairly frequently via a chat app, and she always sent what she called "proof of life" pictures, all of which were so dear. (One was of the kitties waking her up one morning. Such a typical thing in my home, and its normalcy was what made it great. That, and someone just waking up having the presence of mind to grab their phone and record this little domestic scene!) In our chats, just by the way she talked about my kitties it was VERY clear she'd quickly picked up on their personalities, quirks, and needs. The very language she used talking about how they were doing made it obvious she was talking about my kitties, and not just generic kitty language. And she left my home cleaner than I left it for her. While this is not the highest bar (lol) it was so nice to come home after 3 weeks, and an entire day of travel, to a clean, sweet smelling home with clean sheets on the bed! And a bowl of grapes on the counter to snack on (yes, I mentioned grapes and string cheese in our meet and greet. She listened!) I enjoyed Lois. I enjoyed our chats over and above talking about the kitties. She was clearly comfortable and cared about guardianship of my odd, quirky little house. Coming home I would not have known someone stayed here except that my cats were just as happy, fat, and sassy as they were when I left. I would recommend Lois without reservation. I feel like I have added a person in my life that I know I can count on if I need her, and if I ever need someone to care for my kitties it is really nice to know she is there. The comfort and peace she offered while I was on my magical adventure with my son was priceless. Thank you Lois!”


About: I’ve owned at least one dog ever since I was 5 years old. I’ve always loved taking care of dogs, and since I’ve been around them for over a decade, I have plenty of experience! I also dog sit for my parents consistently and I’ve even taken care of my sister’s cat a few times. I love taking care of others, whether they’re a furry friend or someone else! 😊🐾 I’m a college student, so I have plenty of free time, especially in the afternoons. I also have a part-time job at Kroger where I work 3-4 days a week, but I typically only work 6 hour shifts. Right now, I have two dogs named Lacy and Luna! Luna is a 2-year-old puppy, while Lacy is 7 years old. I take care of them by letting them out, taking them on long walks (rain or shine), feeding them twice a day and giving them the occasional treat of course, and playing with them using their favorite toys!

“Sonya was great for our two pups! Auggie had never been boarded and he did great with Sonya's two dogs although he's nervous when first meeting new dogs. We felt at ease leaving our dogs in Sonya's care allowing us to do some sight seeing where we weren't able to take them along. If we ever visit the area again, we wouldn't hesitate to reach out to Sonya again!”


“OMG she is so amazing and caring!! If you ever need a place for your dog/cat to stay, I 100% recommend Lisa because she doesn’t just dog sits but she trains your dog/cat as well☺️ She was communicative throughout the entire process. She is very pet friendly! My dog received lovable care and was very happy with her! Thanks a lot Lisa for everything!?”


“Tiara was so amazing with Joey. He prefers to stay at home. She really made us feel at ease especially during this Heat wave. She is someone who definitely loves animals and very knowledgeable on caring for them. She kept us updated and even watered my flowers. I would highly recommend her and will definitely rebook again!”

“Jade is an incredible dog sitter. She has stayed at our home with our dog multiple times over the last few years. She constantly updates us with cute pictures. We've never had any issues. We always come back to a clean home and our dog (who is very high energy and prone to anxiety) is always so relaxed and sweet when we return. She's done everything to coming in and letting him out during the day, to staying at our house for a week. Couldn't recommend Jade enough!”

Molly N.
“SHE KNOWS PETS ARE FAMILY Molly has been pet sitting for me for several years. I never worry about my dog and cat when I'm away because they have the best care. She sends pics of their play time so I can see the funny things they are doing, and to assure me they are happy and healthy. She keeps food and water bowls fresh and clean and takes the dog for long walks. Molly is a licensed vet tech. She noticed a growth on my dog's foot (surgery was required. Who knows how long it would have taken me to notice it). She's just that good. Worried about your elderly or chronically ill animal? Pills, injections, wound care -- no problem. An added bonus: Molly is one of the warmest, funniest people you'll ever meet. Maybe it's the red hair!”
