“Mark took such great care of our dog! She was completely happy when we came home and our house was clean, packages and garbage cans brought in. We also had a few changes and he was so flexible. Will definitely be using him again!”

“Darla house sat for us and watched our dog. Darla was very communicative during the stay, the house was tidy when we got back and the dog was happy! Great sitter and highly recommend!”


“Rebecca and team were wonderful! We had a great experience with our dog sitter. They took wonderful care of our pets and were very reliable. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing our pets were in good, experienced hands. We highly recommend!”

“Haley and Alex came through for me in a very last-minute and stressful situation due to a family emergency. They stayed with my Boys and kept them happy and cared for in my home while I was out of town. They were great about keeping me updated, especially knowing how stressed I was since this was the first time anyone besides my immediate family took care of my pups. I would definitely book them again and will recommend them to all of my pet parent friends! 🐶🐾”

About: I have been taking care of animals since I was 7 years old. I grew up on an acreage and we always had cats and dogs. I can administer shots and medication and have experience bottle feeding kittens and bunnies. I love animals and understand that each one is different and deserves love. I am patient and careful with each pet, giving them the attention they need and feel most comfortable with. I have a soft spot for senior animals. I am a teacher, so I am available all summer for your pet sitting needs! During the school year, I am only available on the weekends or after school check-ins. I will follow all directions and rules for taking care of your pet(s). Each one is special and I understand they all have their own needs. I am great at going with the flow with your pet and letting them lead the activity.
“Rachel watched my family's 4 dogs while we went on a week long vacation. She was great, updating us daily with pics and a brief note on how they were doing. Will definitely use her again next year!”


“Deanne was very friendly and our dogs were very comfortable with her coming in to our home to take care of them! She made sure to update us and send pictures! Would definitely have her again if we were to go out of town in the future!”


“Christine was hands down the best dog/ house sitter we could have asked for! We have 3 large dogs and one with a seizure disorder that takes timed medication. We were able to enjoy our vacation because of Christine being so communicative and capable. I cannot recommend her enough!”

About: As a middle schooler, I worked on a farm property as a pet groomer. I have experience with both dogs and cats, and a specialization with dogs that are disabled and have behavioral issues. I enjoy being active, going on walks, and making sure your fur baby gets the love they deserve! I am currently working part time at an eye-care office! I have a lot of free time, and would love to spend it with your fur baby! I am flexible and happy to accommodate to whatever you and your pet’s needs may be. I am respectful of the spaces I am in, and I understand that life can get busy sometimes. I never judge a messy home, and promise that it won’t be an issue. I am just happy to help!
“We hired Emily to stay at our home for a second time while we went on a long weekend trip. She is great to work with, responsive to messages, asks questions when needed about the pets, and I feel like my pets are in good hands with her and our home is tidy when we get back. She also came over before the planned trip to meet our newest pups. All of our dogs were happy to see her and the new pups took well to her, even our timid rescued chihuahua, which was nice to see. I would definitely continue to hire her when we need someone trustworthy and reliable to stay with our pets.”

“Sarah is a top notch dog sitter. She will leave your house looking clean and send you daily updates and pics. She will allow you to enjoy your vacation while you are away from the dogs. She is a very kind person and I knew I could trust the house and dogs with her.”

Rachel is great! She is so accommodating and willing to work with you and your dog(s). She came and did 2 meet and greets with my dog Rascal and he knew her well enough by then for us to book her. She also sent pictures of both dogs throughout our time away to reassure us.
