“This is our 2nd booking with Jalynn and she did a great job again! She took excellent care of Ace AND made sure our packages that were delivered were brought inside. She is very dependable. I had complete confidence when booking with her that she would take great care of my fur baby 😊”


“Loralei did drop in visits 2 x day for 5 days for my 3 pups . Charlie is not particularly fond of people and I was a little nervous about how he’d react but by the end of the second day she had won him over and he followed her outside along with the other 2. She also fed my fish and put bird seed in my feeder every morning. She communicated concerns and reassured me all was well . I recommend her and I will use her again in the future !”



“Chuck was wonderful! It was our first time using a dog walker since we got our puppy. Chuck volunteered to come and meet our dog prior to his first drop-in free of charge which was wonderful for the dog and his parents! :) We will be using him again in the future 100%!”

About: I’ve always had a love for animals since I was a child. I used to bring home strays even though I would get in trouble for it. I’ve babysat dogs for friends and family in the past. I also used to be a dog groomer at Petsmart. One rainy morning on my way to work, I saw a chihuahua mix on the side of the road. I parked my car about 10 feet away from her. She was shaking and had a look of despair. I gently scooped her up and put her in my passenger seat. I noticed her leg was broken so I skipped work and took her to the vet. I took her home with me and cared for her until she healed. Today, she is the happiest and chunkiest chihuahua I’ve ever seen. She’s living her best life with my mom. I’m a mother of 2 but my babies are in daycare during the week. I do not work a full time job, I’m very flexible! For check ins: I will make sure your fur baby is fed. I will, of course, give lots of affection. Take them out on walks and let them explore. Make sure their area is clean and tidy.

“Reference for Ashley – Amazing Cat Sitter Ashley is hands-down one of the best cat sitters I’ve ever had. She’s super dependable, kind, and clearly loves animals. My cat warmed up to her right away (which never happens!), and I felt totally at ease knowing he was in good hands. She kept everything clean, stuck to his routine, and even sent me cute little updates and photos while I was away. It was such a relief knowing someone so thoughtful and attentive was taking care of him. I’d absolutely recommend Ashley to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving sitter for their cat. She’s a total gem!”

Krista R.
“Krista stayed with my lab/pitbull mix, Bailey, for a little over a week. Bailey is a low maintenance dog but also very high energy and loves attention when you’re around. Krista came into the house, my fiancé and I gave her (maybe) a 10 min rundown on everything before we left, and she was good to go. Her and Bailey clicked and Krista did above and beyond what we had asked her to do. She is VERY trustworthy, honest, and responsible. I will definitely use her again if need be and will continue to recommend her!!”
