“Jen was awesome!! She house sat for 5 days and followed the schedule I left for my two fur babies. Both dogs are large dogs and she walked them every day without hesitation! They were happy and very well taken care of. I was able to relax and not worry because Jen would send text and pictures daily letting me know what was going on. I will definitely be using her again. Thanks Jen!”

“Kelsey was absolutely amazing while we were gone. She took care of our Velcro needs Goldens and treated them as if they were her own. She shared updates to include pictures daily. She also cleaned up the house prior to our arrival. We will definitely use her again in the near future.”

“I highly recommend Gucci’s daycare sitter to anyone looking for dependable, professional, and loving pet care. As someone with a very busy schedule balancing work and school, having a sitter I can trust gives me tremendous peace of mind. Her communication is excellent—she keeps me updated consistently and sends pictures of Gucci throughout the day, which reassures me that he is safe, happy, and well cared for. It is very clear that Gucci is comfortable in her care because he never shows signs of anxiety when he returns home. In fact, he comes home happy, relaxed, and pleasantly tired from having such an active and enjoyable day. She is professional, attentive, trustworthy, and provides exceptional care at a very affordable rate. I truly feel that Gucci is in great hands whenever he is with her. I am beyond grateful to have found someone who treats my dog with such care and attention. Highly recommended!”


“Jasmine did a great job with our dogs and was very communicative with pictures and updates! She also took great care of the home! It was just as we left it. Even when my golden retriever pulled out some of my personal belongings she respectfully put them back. I would consider Jasmine very responsible and she has great character; it was also extremely nice to meet her because she was exceptionally pleasant and kind.Thanks again, Jasmine”

“Victoria did an amazing job communicating with us about our dogs. She was attentive to the instructions we left for their training along with maintaining one of the dogs medicine routines. Would highly recommend!”

About: I have experience with cats and dogs of many different kinds! I have taken care of both geriatric & adolescent aged animals. As well as having experience with animals who have special needs like blindness, deafness, and giving medication. I hope to meet your babies soon! I'm currently in graduate school to become a speech language pathologist and I’m wanting to supplement my income with some sitting/walking/dropping in jobs before and after school during the week and on the weekends. I will not be able to provide sitting services for any pets inside of my home as I already have multiple animals like cats, dogs, chickens, and fish at my home.
“This was our second time booking with Meaghan. It was just as easy to set up as last time and made for a stress free vacation. She is very responsive and easy to work with. Our dogs have truly come to love Meaghan, and based on the pictures she sent, I’m not sure they even knew we were gone! Meaghan went above and beyond taking care of our pups this week, including bringing a bag of toys for them to play with, and making a pupsicle treat that even my picky husky enjoyed. She sent tons of updates and the cutest pictures, and she even mentioned an improvement in the anxiety levels of my dogs compared to her last visit. Our house was left spotless and our dogs were happy, healthy, and obviously loved on and spoiled while we were away. Highly recommend Meaghan to anyone needing a dog sitter, and will 100% continue to book with her!”

About: I’ve taken care of every kind of animal you can imagine since I was 15. Responsible and caring for your animals like they are my own. No worry when you leave town or go on vacation. It’s like a vacation for your pets when I watch them. No job is too big or too small. And there is attention in every detail when it comes to your pet care and health.

About: I have cared for many dogs, from Toy breeds up to Great Danes. However, I have mostly cared for dogs that are smaller, and bully dogs. I have also cared for older puppies with the biggest hearts, so if your senior pup needs a friend, call! I am also able to administer any medications your dog needs, as well as bathe them if needed. Whatever your family and furry friends need, I can provide! As of right now I am unemployed, but actively searching for a job in the pet grooming/kennel facility area. I am currently able to look after your pets FULL TIME, and am currently able to do *extended sittings*. I am currently unable to keep your pets in my home as we are doing some renovations that would make me uncomfortable with providing a completely safe space for your pet. With that being said, I am MORE than happy to come to your home and take care of your pets in an environment they are already in love with! If your dog is crate trained, no problem! If your pup sleeps in the bed with you, even better! Specific feeding/walking times? You bet I’ll be there not a minute later! I am extremely passionate about animals and their families when healthy environments are provided for their pets!

“Kyara was a wonderful sitter to my 3 dogs. She stayed in our home for the days we were gone and left it in perfect condition. She sent updates each day about how they were doing. She was able to care for my senior dog who needed medication. Thank you for watching over our dogs!”

“So glad we found Kristen G! It was the first time we’ve left our beagle rescue overnight and we were anxious about how she might handle us being gone. We couldn’t be happier with our experience with Kristen. She’s the best and sent us pictures daily to put us at ease. Lucky loved her and all the attention she received. I’m not sure she missed us at all! We’ll definitely be calling on Kristen again! ??”
