“Thank you for everything!!!!! It’s so nice to know the dogs are in good hands. 🥰”
“Ruth is amazing. We were on a trip for over two weeks. She made sure the dogs and cats were loved and well-cared for the entire time we were gone. She sent updates and pictures to let us know they were all doing well. Since it was summer, our dog and cat both shed. She vacuumed the house so the dust bunnies did not conquer our planet. She is just wonderful!”
“Samantha was absolutely wonderful with Porter. She sent updates and pictures every day, and our little buddy was clearly very happy when we got home! We'll definitely have her again in the future. :-)”
“Sarah was wonderful with our Groot. She did everything we asked and was fantastic in sending us updates and photos. She was excellent at communicating throughout the process. Upon meeting her, she displayed a demeanor that gave us great comfort that our girl would be well cared for. We highly recommend Sarah and look forward to her spending more time with our pup in the future.”
“Max was awesome with our pups. I highly recommend him and I am definitely hiring him again. Great communication and sent us lots of photos of our fur babies. Normally we get nervous anytime we have to leave our dogs but with wonderful communication updates and lots of happy pup photos we were at ease and were able to have a great time instead of worrying.”
“Brea was a great dogsitter. We requested on relatively short notice and she was very responsive. She was communicative during the stay so we knew our dog was being well taken care of. We would be happy to book Brea again.”
“Lauren took fantastic care of my dog (8 y/o pit-mix) while I was on vacation for 10 days! If you're looking for a dog sitter, I highly recommend her! She was professional and communicative, leaving me confident my doggo was in good hands while I was away.”
“Jessie was great! She came over on short notice for a meet and greet (I believe it was the same day as the request). We have one sweet gentle giant, and one dog that's suspicious of everyone. Jessie was resourceful and even helped with training our troublemaker. I'm a nervous pet parent, so Jessie took lots of pictures and made me feel at ease while away from home. Very thankful for her help last minute!”
“Excellent care and communication! Our guy was comfortable with Morgan from first sight and had a great time. Thanks Morgan!!”
About: I have taken care of my own and others' pets for 15 years. I have about 10 years of experience caring for cats and love working with kitties. I have experience cleaning litter boxes, playing, brushing, cleaning up hairballs and vomit, and administering medicine to cats. I know how to be gentle and respectful of shy kitties. I also have about 5 years of dog care experience. From working with a professional trainer with my own dog, I know how to use harness leashes, anti-pull leashes, and metal collars safely. I also have experience handling pulling, excitability, and reactivity on walks. I love playing and comforting dogs as well! I graduated from law school in May and I love to spend time caring for animals while I study for the bar exam. As I am setting my own study schedule, I can be available any time, any day of the week. As I have a dog who is very used to being an only child, I will provide walking, pet sitting, and visiting services only in the clients' homes.

Also available for weekends and holidays or for drop in services and walks. I offer services at your home. At this time, I’m unable to spend overnights in your home, but can provide multiple visits a day. I provide safe care when taking on walks, potty breaks, and feeding. I can provide medication administration as well.
“Harlow is a young and super high energy dog so it takes a lot of work to take care of her. Sarah did an amazing job and sent a bunch of pictures to calm my nerves. She also responded really fast when I'd reach out to her. I will definitely be having sarah watch harlow again!”
About: I will be taking on new clients but the dogs have to get along with my cats if I am watching them in my own home, as they are my babies.I do also work 9 to 5 everyday at my regular job, I have been doing this for over a year now and have had such a great time with all of the pets I have met, and I am looking forward to being here for you again as my health has gotten better and I am ready to continue my journey into loving your animals just as much as I love mine. I work 9 to 5 Monday through Friday and I work on the property so I can check on the pets if needed to be We have an unfenced yard,but we have plenty of spaces to walk and if your dog needs crated,I am more than willing to do so.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs, cats, and other pets. I’ve pet sat for more than 20 years and love getting to spend time with fur babies I work full time (8:30-5) and would be able to stop by over lunch to do a potty break. After work we play and cuddle! I make sure the pets are contained safely, per the owners instructions. I’m familiar with in ground fences, shock collars, and leash walking. I’m comfortable crating if that’s what the dogs are used to.

Pet care fits into my daily routine because I need to make cash to provide for my family, also I have time on my hands to help people who need care for their pets. I provide care in your home by feeding your pets with their correct food and having a play pal, also when they need to be walked I happen to be able to do that so they get their daily walks and potty time in.

I care for your pets in you home with the up most love and respect they deserve, I will give them pets, play with them, walk them so they have outdoor time.
“This is the third - and longest - time Lydia has cared for Remy and our home while we were away. Remy loves being with Lydia - and because we know the quality of care & attention she is giving "our guy" - we have been able to enjoy our time away without worrying. 😊 Wish I could double the number of stars in this review!”
“Leigh was amazing with our sweet Golden as well as looking after our old farmstead while enjoyed a week away. She took care of everything and communicated daily with photos. She even handled the Hurricane impacts on the house with care. We were so pleased with all She did for us. Our pup was well cared for and clean upon our return. Highly recommend her services.”
“Milo was very responsive and flexible. Hopefully he will be available in the future.”
“Maya was amazing and will be my first pick for watching my animals from now on. Super professional, sent me updates, and I felt so at ease leaving my babies in her care. (Almost didn’t leave a review because I don’t want her to be too in demand!)”
“Madison was amazing with our girls. We have a 4 month old puppy & an older pup. She was very professional & detail oriented throughout the entire process. We very much appreciated all the updates while she was with our girls. 100% recommend and we will be using her again very soon!”
