“To say Linda was phenomenal is an understatement. This was the first time I left my fur-sister for more than a few hours. Nervous at first we were relieved when Linda came for the first meet and greet. Kia instantly loved her and welcomed her into her world. From the minute we left until the minute we got home Linda kept in touch with us. With pictures, texts and updates. She even started teaching Kia French!!! To think we have a bilingual dog now!! I cannot say enough about how happy we are with Linda and now feel even happier that we found Kia’s furever sitter!!!!”
“Katy did a great job with Carmie! It was our first time using her and she was so easy to work with and flexible to come for a meet and greet. Great communication and sent regular updates with pictures.”
“Craig was such a godsend to us. He handled our two rambunctious lab puppies with ease and sent photos and videos frequently to show us that they were having a good time. He is our go to Dogsitter after our first experience with him. He will also come over and do an intro session with the dogs and walk through their routine with you to get familiar. Hard-working, prompt, devoted - what else could you ask for?”

About: Many members of my family have had dogs, cats, and various other types of pets for my entire life. In my own home, my parents began giving me pet care tasks to help me practice caring for animals when I was pretty young. These skills have developed significantly over the years. I am a loving and caring person and have always had a playful side. This being said, I am still able to handle stressful situations with a firm but compassionate hand. This gives me a distinct advantage when it comes to pet care. Currently I work two jobs, one full-time and one part-time. The full time job have regular hours M-F, 8am to 4pm. I would be able to do drop in visits both before work starts and after it ends. I usually work my part time job on weekends in the late morning- early afternoon. They are very flexible and as long as I get enough notice, I will be able to schedule visits then as well. I feed my cat on a regular schedule so I am able to do the same with your pet. I am also able and willing to play, bathe, or just hang out with your pets. Unfortunately I would not be able to have your pets in my apartment, as my complex does not allow unauthorized animals but I am more than willing to come to you!
About: I have over 10 years of experience caring for cats, dogs, and ferrets, starting from a young age. I’ve been trusted by neighbors and family members to provide attentive, loving care for their pets, whether it’s feeding, walking, giving medication or just giving them lots of playtime and affection. I’m also experienced in maintaining a clean environment, including cleaning cages, crates, and litter boxes, to ensure pets are comfortable and happy. I treat every pet as if they were my own, providing them with all the love and care they deserve while giving owners peace of mind. I work part-time, which allows me the flexibility to dedicate ample time and attention to your furry friends. I’m available for house-sitting during the weekdays and am committed to making your pet’s comfort and well-being my top priority. Please reach out in advance, and I’ll be happy to coordinate my schedule to meet your needs. Your pet will receive the love, care, and companionship they deserve while you’re away. I will treat your home with the utmost respect, ensuring it remains clean and well-maintained during my stay. If any accidents or spills occur, I will promptly clean them up.

Trisha was wonderful! Both of my pups loved her and we were so happy with her. I would definitely recommend her services and will be booking with her again in the future.
Victoria is great, she is always very responsive and cares deeply for the pets she looks after. You can tell that she loves what she does and that she cares for your pet as if it were her own. My dog absolutely loves her and gets excited every time he sees her. I would definitely recommend her, and will absolutely hire her again in the future.
Rebekah was fabulous with my two dogs. She spent two weeks with them while we were out of the country, and she kept me up to date on with texts and pictures almost every day.
Amazing communication and he clearly loves animals! He took exceptional care of our pups and kitties and went above and beyond too assure us everyone was happy and doing well. I would absolutely recommend him to others and ask him again to care for our fur babies!

We loved all the attention and love Vanessa gave to our girl! She was punctual and gave us great pictures throughout the day. We recommend Vanessa for your pet sitting needs!
Jen is amazing with my pups. They were immediately drawn to her. My pups very much enjoyed their time with Jen. Jen is responsive, professional and provides excellent care.
Meggen was the perfect pet sitter for our dog and cat when we were on vacation. We got frequent photos and updates and came home to very chill pets. It's obvious that she loves pets and will treat them as her own. We are so happy to have found someone so responsible and trustworthy.
