“I felt really comfortable leaving my pets and home with Jackie. My pets get really sad when I leave and I knew they were in good hands the moment they met her. I’m happy to have found a pet sitter like Jackie where my pets can build a relationship with someone for when I travel for work and will be booking again right away!”

“Marideth was so great with Butter while we were gone. She was patient with his shy demeanor and made quick progress building trust with him. She sent plenty of updates and photos which left our minds at ease knowing he was in such great care and doing well. Will definitely book with Marideth again!”

“Katy house sat our two rescue dogs over a long weekend and she was incredible! She was very detail oriented, followed all instructions and communicated very effectively while we were away, which included great pup pics! Most importantly she took the time to understand one of our dogs specific needs, he was abused in a previous life and can be reactive to new people and she made sure to gain his trust. She is very confident with dogs (both large and small since we have both) and even cleaned our house so that we came home to a tidier space than we left. She went above and beyond, I highly recommend her!!”

“Professional and talented house sitter! We had to leave town last minute and Elisabeth was here on schedule to meet and care for our dogs. She made record progress with our one who can be reactive to strangers, and kept them on their routine while we were away. Thanks and we will definitely rebook in the future.”

“Where do I begin??! Rosie & I are so lucky to have found Haley. Rosie is a senior lady and comes with many quirks. Haley has gone above and beyond with understanding Rosie’s needs but also finding quick solutions to anything that may occur. I live in an apt complex and the elevator has had issues multiple times. Rosie cannot do stairs well and Haley was kind enough to take her to her own home with a better living situation for Rosie until they were back in service. Caring for a senior dog isn’t easy and Haley has time and time again known what to do to make every situation the absolute best for Rosie. I leave for every trip with peace of mind knowing she is with Haley. There are not enough words to describe how amazing that feels! We love Haley!”

“Judith made fast friends with our pups and I felt incredibly comfortable with my pups having her as company. She gave them plenty of attention and stuck to their schedule very well. She also provided consistent updates with pictures and videos which helped our peace of mind. The house was left in excellent condition after she left, and she even cleaned a bit. Judith was a fantastic sitting and I would recommend her. We're very thankful.”

About: Hi! I'm Lee. I've cared for animals for over 20 years, including three dogs of my own, and I've been pet sitting for friends, family, and others for the past four years. I love both cats and dogs and enjoy getting to know each pet's unique personality. Whether they're playful or cuddly, I focus on helping them feel comfortable and cared for. My goal is to make sure your pets feel safe, loved, and happy while you're away. Every pet receives patience, attention, and plenty of affection. Pet sitting fits into my schedule very naturally because I have a flexible work life as a hairstylist. My days are usually built around client appointments, which allows me to open time for pet care in between services, early mornings, evenings, and sometimes full days when I’m not booked. On lighter workdays, I can take on drop-in visits, walks, and check-ins throughout the day. On slower days or weekends, I’m available for longer care or overnight stays. I plan my schedule carefully so I can give each pet my full attention, making sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for without rushing their time with me. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I make sure they are always safe, comfortable, and on a consistent routine. I always provide fresh, clean water throughout the day so pets stay hydrated. For feeding, I keep a structured schedule so they know what to expect—breakfast is served no later than 8:00 AM and dinner is served no later than 6:00 PM, unless the owner provides a different routine. For dogs, I always make sure they are securely on a leash or harness before they step outside. Their safety is my top priority, and I stay alert to make sure they don’t get into anything dangerous, such as trash, bones, or anything on the ground that could harm them. Inside the home, I maintain a pet-friendly environment by keeping an eye on their behavior and making sure they stay away from hazards like electrical wires or anything they could chew or swallow. I also make sure they have a safe space where they can play, relax, and move around comfortably without risk. My goal is always to create a calm, safe environment where pets feel secure, cared for, and at ease while their owners are away.

I am currently working part time, with availability anytime after 4 pm Monday through Thursday! In the next 3 weeks my availability will open up a little bit more! I was raised around both cats & dogs & have a very good understanding of how to read both animals. I have a very soft calm aura as well as a lot of love & patience to build trust with the fur babies.

“We just moved across the US. We had to go back to our state for nine days. I had a greater peace of mind with Jessica watching our dogs. Very thankful. She sent pictures FaceTime a couple times. To say hi to our babies. I enjoyed the experience. I would hire her again. Kogi and Gus enjoyed her.”

“My two dogs are everything to me. They are my babies and I usually have a family member take care of them. There was an emergency that I had to get someone else asap. I’m so happy I trusted Nafisa, my boys loved her. She was in communication with me while I was traveling and it made me feel less worried. She’s amazing!!”

“Christina is truly the sweetest and most caring pet sitter! She has such a genuine love for animals and it really shines through from the moment we met and throughout the entire pet sitting stay. She kept us informed with lots of cute pictures and videos throughout the weekend, and was really on top of the specific needs for our senior dog.”

“Nicole was excellent! She kept in touch all day and sent pictures. She offered to stay a little longer when my flight got delayed. My mind was at ease the entire time. Will definitely be using her again to dog sit!”
“Marti is fantastic! We had a meet and greet couple of weeks ago. That sealed the deal for me. She had a calming effect on my 16 month old Maltipoo. Missy snuggled up to Marti and trusted her. Marti offered to drive me and pick me up from my eye doctor appointment . It worked out great. Missy was such a good girl riding in Marti’s car. Very pleasant, stress free experience for us. Marti is a kind, smart lady. Her past experience is evident. She will watch Missy again in December at my house for a weekend. So happy to have found Marti.”

“Abigail was amazing with my 3 crazy pups! We needed someone last minute to watch our dogs for our wedding and Abigail did a meet and greet and my dogs loved her! My boy is very anxious and ended up loving her! We really appreciated her and will be using her in the future anytime we need someone!”

“Candace was amazing! I was worried leaving my 7 wk old puppy but they did wonderfully! Candace kept me posted with pics and made sure he was well taken care of! Definitely will be using again and recommend!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs since I was a young child and grew up in a household with several dogs, so I understand that pets are truly family members. I am committed to providing loving, reliable care tailored to each dog’s unique personality and needs. Whether it’s long walks, playtime, administering medications, or providing extra attention and comfort for senior dogs, I treat every pet as if they were my own. My goal is to make sure your dog feels safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away! I’m currently working full time 8:30am-5pm, but I anticipate having more availability during the day in the near future! Best availability would be evenings and weekends. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a calm, loving environment and always follow each pet’s routine, feeding schedule, and any special instructions carefully. I understand that every dog has unique needs and personalities, and I take the time to make them feel comfortable and secure. I also provide regular updates and photos so you can have the peace of mind when you’re away!

We are so grateful to Callie for the amazing care she gave our dog on our wedding day. She was incredibly kind, attentive, and caring the entire time. Knowing our dog was in such good hands gave us so much peace of mind during such an important day for us. She was always attentive, patient, and very professional. She truly helped make our day feel less stressful and even more special. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone and would trust her again without hesitation! 🐾

Forest and I had an initial meet and greet with my two dogs and an overview of my home since he would be taking care of both for over two weeks. His experience and work/life met my needs for the stay. He is very responsive to texts, sent some pics so I could see my dogs that I missed so much on my trip. I had every confidence that the dogs and my house was taken care of and that is a lot, I don't trust many people to take care of my dogs aside from family. I will book him again for future trips.

Karen was so wonderful!!!!! Took excellent care of my three cats, dog, and axolotl for a whole week. She kept in touch with me about how they were doing, and even gave me some extra water/food containers for them! When my flight home got delayed, she was willing to stay and take care of the animals for me for an extra day, even though she didn't have to. 10/10 thank you so much, Karen <3
