She gave detailed explanation of what they did together, and took many pictures to show our sweet happy pup in her care! I am so glad to have found Sia, and I will definitely be using her again!”

She was always on time for her drop-ins and she checked in and checked out perfectly. She let us know of any issues, a and took care of them immediately. Such a pleasure knowing that we could relax knowing our pets would be well cared for. We were able to concentrate on our family. We will most definitely book with her again.”


About: I have raised many different animals. I have experience in raising puppies as well as kittens. I am able to dare for all sizes of dogs. I am a teaches working a side job through the Summer! I love pets and have a flexible schedule. I am available at all times through the week and weekend. My dog is my absolute world. I care deeply for all animals and their well being. I find their health extremely important and I am very aware of the diet my dog has. I love keeping dogs company and interacting with them.

About: I’ve always had a big heart for dogs. Caring for them comes naturally to me as I truly love being around them, giving them attention, love, and companionship. Pet care fits easily into my routine because I’m very flexible and love spending time with dogs. I can adapt to your pet’s schedule and needs. Whether in my home or a client’s, I make sure each pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable. I stick to their usual routines, give them lots of attention, and keep their environment clean and calm. Playtime, walks, and cuddle time are always included!

“Lindsay was exactly what I needed for my last minute travel! I had never used a service like this before and just moved to a new area so I wasn't sure how it would go. Lindsay met me and the fur babies before the trip and got a lay of the house and I was instantly comfortable with her! She was on time for every visit, she loved my pups as her own and she kept me in the loop at each visit! I never felt that I needed to worry about my babies while away and it allowed me to thoroughly relax! Thank you so much!”


“Yan is an AMAZING cat sitter! She kept in daily communication in a professional and upbeat way; it's such a relief to find a sitter who sends a detailed report with plenty of adorable photos. She very smoothly handled some hiccups when my lively kitties got into some mischief. She seemed to care for them in a way that really put me at ease. Would definitely book again!”


“We were nervous to have someone come take care of our dog while we went on vacation but Kaylee did an outstanding job. She is very reliable and texts when she is on the way. I would definitely recommend to everyone.”


“Thank you for taking care of Kupah.”


About: I’ve had dogs and cats all of my life. I have always been the go to sitter for friends and family. I am especially experienced with senior dogs and understand the patience, gentleness and extra care they need. I’ve also trained my own pets from a young age, so I’m comfortable working with both older and energetic puppies. Above all, my husband and I treat every pet like family. I work full-time, and my husband is an independent worker with a flexible schedule, so we tag team pet care throughout the day. Our routine allows us to provide check ins and potty breaks approximately every 2-4 hours. We make sure pets are never left alone for too long and always have the attention they need. We’re also available on weekends and happy to accommodate your pets usual routine as closely as possible. Safety and trust are my top priorities. While I have an unfenced yard, I always use leash and supervise pets closely during outdoor time. I have a calm home environment with open space for pets to walk, play and relax. My senior chihuahua has their own separate room, which helps maintain a peaceful setting and allows me to keep visiting pets comfortable and safe.

About: I have cared for dogs for over 30 years. Mine, friends etc. I have watched dogs, cats, lizards, bunnies. Please no snakes. No issue with multiple animals. This is my full time job. If I have availability I can help you. I am open for last minute bookings because I don’t have another job. I only care for dogs in the clients home. If a situation arose where I needed to care for a dog in my home I have a fully fenced large back yard and a crate for them to feel comfortable in.

Danieris & Julian S.
“Danieris and Julian have been very close friends of mine since 2021. They are an excellent and very lovely couple. Also, I adopted a dog last year and they took care of him in several occasions when I wanted to go out of town for the weekend. They have a lot of experience taking care of pets because their families have rescued several cats and dogs in the past. In addition, their house is very big which allows pets to have a comfortable stay. I would recommend them 100%!”

Shelisha F.
“Shelisha is a caring and compassionate person towards people and pets. She has this ability to connect with animals that is truly amazing and endearing. They seem to establish a connection with her almost instantly. I think it has to do with how sensitive towards her and the animal's emotions she is and animals are able to pick up on that. Shelisha has been a great care giver to many pets in the past and will continue to deliver this with a positive frame of mind.”
