“After meeting with Katherine before our trip, we were very comfortable having her pet/house sit while we went on a rare vacation. Prompt to arrive, always attentive to our dogs, great feedback during our travels, and greeted us on our return with a clean house and happy dogs. Needless to say, our next 2 mini vacations are booked with Katherine as our 'security blanket'.”

About: With over 10 years of experience caring for dogs and cats—even since childhood—pet care is second nature to me. My son and I truly adore animals, and we go the extra mile to ensure they feel loved, safe, and comfortable. I prioritize clear communication with pet owners, providing updates and photos as often as desired. I also respect and follow all owner instructions to ensure your pet’s routine remains consistent. While I work outside the home, full time, my new roommate works from home and she is able to provide potty breaks during the work day. I am only 7 minutes away and can occasionally stop home during the day also. Sadly I no longer have a fenced-in yard but I always plan for at least 2 walks per day, unless your dog is not able to walk that long or the weather doesn't permit it. We do multiple potty breaks each day. I also have a nice enclosed deck that many dogs like to hang out on and watch the world. I take only 1 pet at a time so if you need a place with no other dogs or cats, we are the right place for you! Your pet’s happiness and well-being are my top priorities! 🐾❤️ I usually walk the dogs in the mornings before work, afternoons when I get home and before bed. If dogs love to run around or play tug-of-war they will find a great playmate in my son, who ADORES animals, dogs and cats especially. When your pet is at our house, we do our best to respect all the things that are important to you and to keep a routine as similar to your home, as possible. We always schedule a meet and greet where we can meet each other and we can talk about your preferences and any details we should know about your little one.

“Gillian was wonderful with our puppy Archie! She showed up early, and spent the day at our home taking care of our little guy. She sent fun picture updates. We highly recommend Gillian!”



“Taylor was great with my dogs, Baxter and Chandler. She was super easy to schedule and she did not seem to have any issues with my two guys. Left the house as it was when she arrived. Would call again for dog/house sitting services!”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was 7 years old. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to dog sit and both in my home and theirs, board also in mine, walk, feed, and bathe their pets. I enjoy them so much I reach out at times to see if I can simply take their dogs for a walk some days just for enjoyment only, even if the owner is home. I’m currently working full-time from home as a permanent remote employee. I have flexible time to take care of your dog for potty breaks, feeding & play time. After 3:30 pm I am on personal time. I am free to board dogs any day of the week. I have an open yard shared with neighbors in our townhome association. I have the ability to walk dogs for potty breaks or put them out on their cable from three optional doors. If boarding overnight, they need to be crate trained and would be in their owner provided crates overnight and/or if I need to run an errand outside my home.

“We used Alissandra’s services for our cat while we were on vacation. Very responsible! Great communication! Gave Kiwi so much love and attention and sent lots of photos. Felt he was in great care❤️ Would definitely recommend and would use again!”
