“Tanya was an amazing sitter! We needed one so last minute and she came to the rescue letting our dogs play and making sure they were cared for! Super communicative and so nice! Definitely hire her!”
“Josh was super amazing with our pups! I felt very much at ease going out of town knowing they were in good hands. :) He sent pictures throughout the weekend and had very good communication. I will definitely recommend to family and friends and will look forward to using his services in the future if he is available. :)”
“Dalton and Lauren came over to meet my pups on a last minute request and I am so thankful they did! My dogs absolutely loved them and their daughter, and I felt that they were well cared for! We received quite a few pictures and felt comfortable that our dogs were happy and safe while we were out of town. We will definitely use them again!”
“We were so grateful to have Rebecca care for our pets…. Her communication was prompt and informative, and she did all that we asked. We will definitely arrange for her as a pet sitter again!”
“Kayla was AMAZING. We had never left our animals before (three Aussies, two lizards, and a parakeet), so we were nervous about how they would respond for someone completely new. To summarize, I’m pretty sure they never even blinked at eye at us being gone for a week because they were so happy and well taken care of by Kayla! Every photo she sent (we received daily check-ins!) they were smiling away without a care in the world! We were instantly relieved and felt completely at ease knowing they were so happy. We also had a major plumbing emergency at our home while we were away, and Kayla took care of everything! Even though our home was new to her at the time of the emergency, it was only her first day there, she immediately located our main water line, shut everything off, moved our antique furniture to ensure it wasn’t damaged, and even stayed and communicated with our plumber through the entire thing! Because of her extremely quick response and action, our home was spared from major damage. We are so grateful that we have found her, and we will definitely be asking her back the next time we need our beloved animals and home cared for!”
“Errin was amazing from start to finish. She came over before we left for our trip twice just to let our pups get familiar with her. She kept us updated everyday we were gone with pictures and meal updates. We felt extremely comfortable letting her stay in our home overnight for the week and would absolutely use her again for our non-pup travels. 10/10 would recommend.”
“Ashley was wonderful. Knowing that our anxious, older dog (who also happened to be on Rx at the time) could stay comfortably in his own home and keep his regular schedule while we were away was a big relief that helped us enjoy our travels even more. Ashley gave us daily updates with photos, was easy to communicate with, and even took Furgus on late night walks like he is accustomed. She also took great care of our house. If it wasn't for our happy, healthy Furgus greeting us back home, we wouldn't have been able to tell that we had a house guest. We are definitely going to request for Ashley's help again in the future. : )”
About: Hi! I’m a lifelong dog lover who’s never met a pup I didn’t stop to pet! I’ve had dogs my entire life and have experience with all kinds—from energetic puppies to senior and special needs dogs who need a little extra TLC. I’m confident handling dogs with medical needs and have experience giving oral medications, providing basic grooming care, and following specific training routines and commands. Whether your dog needs a brisk walk, a slow stroll, or some calm companionship, I adapt to their pace and personality. Caring for animals isn’t just something I do—it’s who I am. Your pup will be treated like family, and I’ll make sure every walk is safe, fun, and full of love (and a few extra pets, of course!). As an empty nester with a growing craft business, I have extra time in my weekly routine. I’m looking to fill my days with meaningful work that supports my passion for travel. Dog walking fits perfectly—I get to spend time with animals I adore, stay active, and earn extra income that goes directly toward future adventures. It’s a great balance alongside my creative work, and I love that every walk brings a little joy, fresh air, and purpose to my day. I currently have two older small dogs of my own and one sweet grand-dog who’s part of the pack, along with three quirky backyard chickens. On a regular basis, I also babysit my three larger grand-dogs—two of which are Bully mixes—so I’m very comfortable handling dogs of all sizes and energy levels. Whether it’s playtime, feeding, cuddle sessions, or sticking to a routine, I make sure each pet feels loved, safe, and well cared for. My home is always full of wagging tails and happy paws!
“Allie took great care of our dog when my husband and I went out of town. She sent pictures and updates, making us feel at ease! We will definitely use her again in the future!”
“Mirra took great care of our dogs in our home. We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! She was very conscientious and made sure our dogs were happy and well cared for. We got regular updates and photos. We highly recommend Mirra!”
“I cannot say enough good things about Ms Meni. While I was away I had no worries about my fur babies or the house. She kept me posted on how my three very old cats were adjusting to her presence and my absence. She indeed speaks "Meow." Will definitely ask for her again.”
“10/10 recommend Kathryn! She stayed in our home with our doggos for 2 days while we were on vacation and she was AMAZING. She is very sweet, thoughtful, proactive, respectful and responsive. We got updates multiple times a day with pictures and she went above and beyond our expectations!”

Ashley was amazing! She was very responsive, sent us a lot of pictures, and kept us updated on how Posty was doing while we were away. We came back to a very happy and relaxed cat! Ashley also took great care of our home, and went above and beyond with everything! We will definitely rebook again 😊😊😊
We had to find a house / pet sitter on extremely short notice and were fortunate to have Kayla come to the rescue!! We loved seeing the daily pictures and updates about our two boys and knowing they were being smothered with love and affection 24/7!! Hopefully she will be available the next time we have to go out of town as we she will be our first call! Thanks again Kayla, the boys are a little depressed now that we are home and not having round the clock kisses and snuggles ;)
Kaylee is the best of the best. Knowledgeable, sweet, attentive, loads of common sense (which is anything but common), and truly cares for and understands animals. If you are lucky enough to book with her, your sweet babies will be better for it. THANK YOU, Kaylee. From the bottom of my heart, for caring for my Izzy (and me, quite frankly) the way you did. Warms my heart, I am so grateful.
Desiray was yet again incredible! I could tell how our dog was bonding hard with her and was so happy/content. ❤️ It makes the vacation even sweeter knowing our dog was getting a special time of his own. 15/10! Highly, highly recommend Desiray and can’t wait to have her again soon!
Trinity was extremely attentive and went above and beyond to communicate through every step. My husband and I had a little bit of a last minute scramble to find someone to watch our puppies and she immediately made all our worries disappear. She asked all the right questions and made sure to give us timely updates throughout the day. She even cleaned up after staying and helped us with some packages and watering plants. She hands down is a perfect option to watch you fur babies and we will 100% use her again in the future.
I was a bit apprehensive about having someone stay at my house to care for my dog and I consider myself lucky that Linda C. was available. Linda was here for 8 nights and took great care of my dog and my house. My dog takes a while to adjust to a new person, but Linda knew how to put Pepper at ease. Linda sent me texts with updates about how everything was going; which was great. I highly recommend Linda C. to care for your pet. She's the best!
