“Jen was excellent! She was always on time and provided us detailed feedback. We enjoyed the numerous photos she took! Jen went the extra mile to get to get to know our dog:) She is kind, compassionate, and trustworthy! We would definitely book her again!”


“Very appreciative of Heather and her willingness to check in on my cat while I was away for a few days during the Christmas holiday. She responded in a timely manner to my request and was very communicative during the entire process before and during pet sitting. Heather gave me updates and photos after each visit which I loved! She is experienced with cats and was very lovely as a pet sitter. My cat Myles enjoyed her visits. Highly recommend!”


“Brianna did an amazing job taking care of my cat Rhubarb! She is an experienced pet sitter/owner and was able to give Rhu her liquid medication. She was also super communicative and friendly; I really appreciated her report cards describing their time together, complete with lots of photos!”


“Shannon was able to come check on my little super last minute and was friendly and communicative. My girl is shy but warmed up to Shannon quickly, I could tell from the pictures she had a great time! I'll definitely book Shannon again in the future, thank you so much!!!”


“Tina does an amazing job with our girl, Stevie. She’s thorough, fun, and so knowledgeable with dog care. We always know Stevie is taken care of and happy when she is with Tina. And Tina does a little training when she checks in on Stevie which is so great!”


“Maggie was awesome and went above and beyond helping my geriatric Maine coon get her thyroid medication while I was away. She was super communicative, friendly, and patient even when Nalia (my cat) had her usual stranger danger up front. I could tell Nalia was healthy and happy when I returned home, and she really seemed to warm up to Maggie. Definitely will be asking for Maggie’s help again in the future.”

About: Your pet deserves the best - we’re here to deliver that! I have grown up with dogs my whole life. We’ve had dogs of all sizes and personalities and have 2 pups right now! Every pet is so different and I’m experienced in shifting my approach based on the pets needs. My husband and I have very flexible schedules to help meet the needs of your pet! My work schedule is flexible and my husband works from home and can easily be available. We are happy to help multiple times per day if needed as well! We treat every pet as if they were our own. We have 2 pups that are spoiled with so much love and we would love the opportunity to show your pet that love as well. We are happy to stay active with the high energy dogs or provide some comfort and cuddles with the anxious or low energy ones. We ensure your pup will be loved, safe & happy even while you’re away!

About: I am a lifelong animal lover & care taker. I also own a small business making healthy pet treats, so your special fur face will be spoiled! I have experience with reactive dogs, behavioral problems, senior animals, medical issues, & a wide variety of species. I base my care around the animals needs, not my schedule. I am patient, steady, & calm. I have loads of engagement toys, puzzles & activities to keep your pet happy & stimulated. I have a very flexible schedule & work from home, so I can adjust around you & your pets' needs whether it's early morning, last minute, or before bed. I do not have a fenced yard, so I do not leave dogs outside at my home. I walk & take park trips multiple times a day. I have 3 dogs & a cat who are used to new friends visiting. I do not crate my dogs in my home, but am happy to in your home.

“Meghan and Jacob did an excellent job taking care of my two cats for three weeks! They communicated clearly, provided fun photos and updates, and made me feel comfortable knowing my pets were in great hands! I would definitely recommend them to others, and would book with them again in the future 😊”


“Katie is awesome. Super flexible and understanding. I would definitely recommend her and will hopefully be able to use her service again. Thanks again Katie!”


“Steve did a wonderful job of checking in on my fuzzball and giving me updates. Highly recommended!”

“Stacy was a great sitter for my pets. I had no doubts they were going to be in good hands!”


About: I’m a dog-loving stay-at-home mom with a flexible schedule and an active lifestyle—perfect for walks, playtime, or drop-in visits. While I don’t have a dog of my own (yet!), I’m the go-to “dog auntie” for my brother’s pup and love giving pets the attention and affection they deserve. Whether it’s a cuddle, fresh air, or keeping their routine on track, I’m here and excited to help while you’re away. I have a fairly flexible and open schedule. I would love to drop in to feed, snuggle, and play with your cat or dog! I’m also interested in dog-walking if yours needs a little more exercise midday! I care for pets the way I’d want someone to care for mine—with kindness, attention to detail, and a focus on safety above all else. When I’m dropping in at your home I make sure to follow routines, keep things tidy, and be sure your pet feels comfortable, secure, and loved. I’ve had many pet sitters over the years for my cats and understand how important it is providing them with loads of attention, communicating well with you, and keeping everything clean and stocked.

“Julie is truly the best! Our pets love her so much. We have totally confidence that everything will be taken care of and our pets loved! We’ve had her come watch out let’s multiple times and will keep her coming back!”

“Laura truly cared for my two dogs like they were her own. She was very attentive to their individual needs and quirks and went out of her way to make them feel comfortable with her. My one dog, Freddie, is fearful of new people and was initially skeptical of Laura. By the end of the week, she was easily his favorite human! It is a huge relief knowing your critters are well taken care of and well loved when you're away. She sent us regular photos and updates and was wonderful all around. Highly recommend!”
