“Cheyenne was sooooo amazing with my dog. I needed someone to take her potty twice in one day and she was GREAT! She sent photos, kept me posted when she got there, and shared details and photos of her visit. We will definitely use Cheyenne again!”


“Natalie is so incredibly sweet with both of our pups! Working with both a 70 lb dog and a puppy is no easy feat, but Natalie is so amazing with them. She leaves great notes to keep us in the loop with our doggos care and she takes the cutest pictures with them during her drop in. We appreciate her so much!”


“Danny takes excellent care of our pets. When traveling, we use his help to drop in on our dog and cat. Danny is communicative and accessible, and we are grateful to have his help with our furry companions.”


“Very happy I've found Julia! She's great with my pups. I just have her let them out in my backyard for 1/2 an hour mid day so the kids can go potty. She is very communicative and I love getting my pictures when she visits.”


“David provided excellent service, quite in excess of what I would have expected. The cats were cared for, fed, and cleaned up after, and his communication was always prompt and descriptive. I would very much recommend this gentleman to anyone in need of a pet sitter.”


“I won’t use anyone else if I can help it off river. Nala and Domino respond so well to Jasmine and it probably because she has such a calm energy that animals are attracted to. I appreciate you Jasmine!”


“Renee is awesome with Bodie. She's been doing drop-ins for us for several months now. We are so grateful to have met her! Renee is reliable, caring, and trustworthy. She's has been so wonderful with our highly energetic dog, making sure that he gets the attention that he needs while we are away.”


“Kenya was on time and very attentive to the care instructions for Maya. My furbaby was very happy when I got home. I look forward to her taking care of Maya on my upcoming trip :-)”


“Nina saved me with a last minute request when LuLu and I arrived after a long day of travel from Denver to Orlando. She came to our hotel and got LuLu some much needed exercise and vitamin D. I sent her a lot of instructions and everything seemed to go smoothly and puppy was happy when I got home!”


“Makenna is the best! We hired her for drop in visits to check on our house and elderly cat while we were away on vacation. She was quick to respond to requests, quick to communicate any concerns, flexible, friendly, and easy to work with. She also sent us beautiful pictures of our happy cat! We will definitely be booking her again.”


“Hailey was awesome as always! (Sorry for the late review, the past week has been crazy!!!) She took wonderful care of our cat while we were away, and sent so many updates!!”


“Billie was great! She was very communicative and sent me pictures during each visit. She let me know if she noticed any concerns/food running low which I really appreciated. If I need my cats to be watched again I would definitely rebook!”


About: I love love love all animals; I even donate to a lot of rescues and have fostered dogs. Dogs have a special place in my heart—I call them fur angels—and I’ve had them my entire life. I had to lay my last rescue (she was actually a foster fail—I kept her instead of adopting her out!) to rest on 3/17/25 and there is a huge, gaping hole in my heart. My heart needs some time to recover before getting another one. I’ve had and cared for dogs my entire life. I absolutely love getting to know their unique personalities, treating them with nothing but the love and affection they all deserve, and walking, playing, spoiling, and (especially!) cuddling with them. I would love to take care of yours as if you were taking them to grandma’s! If you want to do a meet-and-greet, I’d love the opportunity to meet your fur angel. :) I’m currently working for myself from home on my own schedule so I am extremely flexible. I can give potty breaks as often as possible, but I don’t have a fenced yard to let them roam free, so it will be leashed potty breaks/walks outside. Updating for scheduling clarification: A “drop-in visit” is for me to come to your home and care for your dog. This includes letting them outside in a fenced yard for a potty break and zoomies, if they desire, as well as food, fresh water, and cuddle and play time. A “Dog Walk” is for me to come to your pet and walk them for the amount of time you book. The actual length of the walk/time outside will be impacted by your wishes, the weather (heat, especially), and if there’s anything else I need to fit into the booked window, such as time for water, eating, playing, etc. Obviously, I want happy pet parents and pets and will always do the best I can to care for your pet as if he/she were my own. :) I am currently without my own dog for the first time in decades, so your fur angel will have me all to themselves! I will be as “spoiling” or “strict” as you’d like. I gave my own dogs a healthy level of structure and manners but they were also really spoiled. I will follow your wishes as it is your fur baby. As a baseline, I make sure they have comfortable places to lay, as much active time as they’d like, and plenty of water, treats, and food-and, of course, tons of cuddles!!

“Chloe did a phenomenal job with our two cats! She was always on time, sent daily updates with photos, and went above and beyond to make them feel comfortable. Our cats absolutely adored her and she will definitely be our go to sitter from now on, thanks Chloe!”

“Anthony was friendly and took good care of my dogs, but there were some issues with communication. For one of the four walks, they sent a screenshot of their phone screen instead of a picture of the dogs in the report. On the last walk, they completely forgot and only checked in after being reminded two hours later. I understand they weren’t feeling great, which they explained the next day, but a little communication would have gone a long way—especially since I wasn’t home. It felt like they had completely forgotten about the dogs, which was concerning. I appreciate their effort, but attention to detail and reliability are crucial when caring for pets.”


“Adriana was great! She dropped in to take care of our cat every day while we were out of town and made sure to send pictures & updates. We came home to no issues and to a happy kitty. I would definitely recommend her!”


“Jeff was great with my cat Fred. He helped me get rid of the stress knowing that I could go on my family vacation and that Fred would be checked in on at home. I was able to enjoy being gone and I liked the pictures and updates from him. I would definitely recommend Jeff and will check with him first next time I need someone to check on Fred.”
