“Mallory was beyond amazing, both for my pets as well as my house, going above and beyond for us, particularly in a tricky time. I would certainly book with Mallory again in a heartbeat.”


“Meghan was such an amazing sitter for our pup! She was super responsive and communicative throughout her whole stay. I had no worries while we were out of town that our sweet boy was well cared for. She’s the best so if you can have her take care of your pet, do it!”


“McKenzie was amazing with our crew. Including keeping us up to date on one of our pups who has a medical issue that requires multiple medications and feeding times. It’s especially hard to leave a pet that isn’t feeling well by McKenzie did a great job. My little dog, who is a bit standoff-ish, let her pet her with a few minutes of meeting her. We hope to use her again!”


“Anna was extremely communicative and provided consistent updates while she watched my two pups during an out of town trip. I could tell through every photo and video she shared that the dogs were very well taken care of and comfortable. I would definitely book Anna again for future requests!”


“Oli was very communicative, left our house cleaner than we left it, and our pup was so well-taken care of for the two weeks we were gone!! We could very much tell when we got home, and by the funny tidbits Oli sent us that showed how much she was in tune with Maddie! We would definitely use Oli again! And so appreciate how happy Maddie was and how clean everything was upon our arrival! When we came home in between her departing and us getting back, she even had calm music playing for Maddie! Oli is a gem! ❤️”


“Brittany is amazing! My dog can be very nervous around new people but Brittany made sure she was always comfortable. She sent great pics and updates while I was away. Altogether a great experience!”

“Averi did great with Sandy. We were gone on an extended trip and Averi stayed with Sandy in our home for 16 days. She followed all instructions for Sandy and really carred for her. Sandy loved her time and we got a lot of pictures while we were gone. This helped keep us from worrying to much. She walked, played with, and gave Sandy her medicine. It was christmas and Sveri got Sandy a puppy stocking and photo with Santa. She went above everything we expected. I highly recommend her.”

“Rachel was fantastic with our pets!! She sent numerous pics and was always extremely communicative of her schedule. We’ll definitely be using her again!”


About: I have taken care of neighbors and friends pets for years. I have been trusted with feeding, walking, bathing, and loving their pets. I am passionate about providing a safe and comfortable atmosphere for pets while their parents are away! I am currently a student, so I would love to hang out with your pet as a study break! My schedule varies week by week, but I will do my best to accommodate your needs. I love to play, walk, and run with my beagle. And when she’s worn out, I love to lay on the couch with her! This extends to all pets. I love playing with them and making sure they get their energy out…and cuddling with them when they’re tired! I adhere to whatever feeding schedule is desired and I constantly ensure they have water!

“This is our second time using Steven‘s pet sitting services, and we could not be happier. Steven goes above and beyond to make us feel like our two cats are in excellent hands while away. He is caring, kind, and always keeps us updated on how our cats are doing. With Steven, we know that our house and our cats are going to be well taken care of. We cannot recommend Steven enough to anyone who needs their house/pets looked after while away. You will not be disappointed!”


“Emma was great!! We felt really comfortable leaving Leo with her. She sent tons of updates and pictures and also took great care of our house (she even washed our bed sheets for us!). We came back and Leo seemed really happy and healthy. I recommend her 100%! Thanks Emma!!”
