“Sarah is the best!!! She's watched our skittish and sensitive little kitty Phoebe twice now over the last couple of years and it's been really awesome. Sarah sends us notes and pictures every day with detailed updates on how Phoebe is holding up and she does everything she can to make Phoebe comfortable and happy. We know our kitty girl is in very good care with Sarah which is a seriously big relief on every single day of our trips. We're officially recurring clients and we hope she'll be available for our next trip too!!! Thank you Sarah!!!”


“Pat was great with both of our kitties and took great care of them while we were away on our trip. She was very thorough and made sure they had adequate water, food and a clean litter box on her daily visits. She also took time to visit and play with them, took great pictures, and left detailed notes about each visit to let us know how the cats were doing. She was very accommodating of our schedule and I would recommend her for any other pet parents. Thank you for taking such great care of our kitties Pat! 🙂”

“One of my rats unfortunately passed while I was away but Alex was quick to inform me and handled everything as I asked. Despite the tragedy, my remaining two rats and cat were doing well when I returned, and I received thorough reports and pictures throughout my trip that made me feel assured that all of my pets are being well cared for. Will definitely have Alex take care of my pets again!”


About: I’ve been house/dog sitting for family and friends for over 8 years. I love animals and appreciate the time I get to spend with each one. I take the opportunity seriously and treat all animals as if my own. I work remotely all day, so I can provide support and care all day. I don’t mind scheduling around the pet’s normal schedule. I like to keep the animals as close to their routine as possible. I work remotely all day, so I can provide support and care all day. I don’t mind scheduling around the pet’s normal schedule.

“Ellery was so communicative while watching my cats. Thorough updates were given & the best pictures were taken while I was gone. I’m sure my cats didn’t even want me to come back! I’d hire Ellery over and over again!”


“Marikate was awesome! Extremely friendly and loved our kitty well. We had a change in travel plans and she was very flexible and helpful to make sure our pet was well taken care of. Will definitely use her again”


About: Hello! My name is Stephanie Austin. Growing up in rural Delaware, we always had at least one family dog who we took on long off leash walks and played with in our big backyard. Having so much space allowed for the opportunity to connect, bond with, and read our dogs while they were having tons of fun and just being themselves. Fun Facts: I have previous dog sitting experience, and I used to volunteer at my hometown SPCA, where I got to learn and play with over 40 different dogs. When I graduated high school, I adopted Minnie, and she has been by my side ever since. For twelve years, she has been my hiking partner, shot gun rider, and my little spoon. I understand that your dog has their own unique set of personality traits, and I look forward to learning them and playing with them! I currently work out of town Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursdays. So I am home free from Friday through Monday. I am able to stop by your home several times a day to let your animals outside and spend time with them! Overnight house sitting is pending. I will ask for a run down of your pets daily routine and mirror that the best I can. Ensuring lots of pets, treats, and play time!

“Couldn’t have chosen a better person to watch my fur baby. She was very kind and caring and all around treated him like he was her own. Would definitely recommend her and choose her to watch my boy Butters again. Thank you 10/10”



About: Dog guests love our secured yards and comfy dog beds! We have one indoor/outdoor (very friendly but low energy) dog and an indoor cat and I'm home with pets all day. Large home with grassy front yard and large backyard. Pool, for dogs who like swimming. Dogs get to come inside and outside as they like, and I always supervise them. Our dog loves visitors, and our cat tolerates them. If your dog likes walks, we do one lengthy walk (if it's not too hot) every evening. If your dog likes to play, we have a yard full of toys and are happy to throw things and play tug-of-war. Want frequent updates? No problem. I'll take eleven million pictures of your dog being cute. Care is tailored to your and your pet's preference. We're used to special dietary needs and administering medications. I have stairs to our bed for little and older dogs and they're welcome on all the furniture. If your dog is into binging shows, I am agreeable as long as they do not have terrible taste. We love our pets and we like knowing they're happy when we're away, too! For housesitting, I'll be there as much as you like. You will come home to your house exactly as you left it, with happy pets. Pet care is my only job. Your pets will always have my full attention- I'm always available to them for attention, playing, walks, and snuggling. At this time, we are not offering pet sitting services in our home. We recently adopted a stray cat, and he's still very skittish with new people and animals.

She has such a sweet and gentle demeanor and ALL of the animals love her! My anxiety ridden pup absolutely LOVES Amanda and quite literally cries with excitement any time she comes over.

Stephanie A.
“I cannot recommend Stephanie enough as a dog caregiver! She has taken care of my husky, Ikal, numerous times, and each experience has been nothing short of amazing. Steph is incredibly attentive, ensuring that Ikal is not only fed properly but also well cared for in every way. Having lived with Stephanie for a year, I can confidently say she is the best dog mom I have ever met. Her own dogs are a testament to her skills—well-behaved and trained with love and patience. She excels at following any routine you provide, making sure your pet feels comfortable and secure. If you’re looking for someone who genuinely cares for dogs and has the expertise to provide excellent care, Steph is the one. Your pet will be in great hands!”
