“Joy was absolutely wonderful for my cats! She was punctual, did exactly what was asked & truly went above and beyond. I was given peace of mind with all the pictures that were sent while away. Joy made coming home from a trip easy, she helped so much!”


“Colleen was absolutely wonderful with my dog this weekend! I reached out on fairly short notice and she was incredibly accommodating with her schedule. She was also very flexible when it came to timing and working around my specific needs. Colleen's communication was excellent throughout. She kept me updated and gave me peace of mind while I was away. It's clear she genuinely cares about the animals she watches. I wouldn't hesitate to book with her again and would definitely recommend her to other pet parents!”

About: Large dominant dog experience. Drop in visits and walks during the week available at this time. New puppies to seniors and special needs that need some love. Early morning and late day drop ins and walks. I work mid shift with flexible hours. Looking to help with short potty breaks before pet parents can get home from out of town. We use crates but understand it's not necessary for all dogs at home. I need to know the client's local veterinarian in case of emergency and if the dogs know basic obedience when coming to your home.

“Terry was great with my cats! My two cats are very timid and afraid of strangers, so when Terry came, they always made sure they were well hidden. Terry was very patient with them and made every effort to locate them every time. Though most of the time my cats just wouldn’t come out, Terry still stayed with them, talked to them, and tried to play with them for like an hour. Besides taking good care of the cats, Terry also cleaned up litters on the floor! I would definitely trust Terry to look after my cats again because I'm sure that they will be happy and healthy with her care!”


“Landry and her husband did a great job taking care of our cat. They did a good job with the basics (food, water, etc) and gave him his medication. I got pictures from each visit when they were playing with him.”


“Stephenie was absolutely amazing! This was my first time leaving my kittens for a long period of time and I was really nervous, but Stephenie’s updates and pictures made me feel so much better! She is incredibly sweet and clearly loves animals. You can definitely trust her with your pet!”

Robyn S.
“I’ve known Robyn for 7 years now and she is still my go-to for all things dog related! Her depth of knowledge is impressive but beyond her years of studying breed structure, pedigrees, health issues and judging trends is a woman with a huge heart for all things canine. Robyn always puts her dogs first in her life, and I would trust her with my own dog any day. In fact, I have! Robyn has taken my dog to Cornell for a non-emergency procedure and I had full faith everything would go fine, and it did! Robyn has helped me both in and out of the show ring and is always a listening ear, or quick to give advice. You will not be disappointed in the care your dog will receive with Robyn, either on the end of a leash or cuddling on a couch!”

Alaska Y.
“Where can I start?!?! Alaska is absolutely amazing. She comes to my home when my girl is all by herself and rescues her from loneliness to enjoy her company. My girls get so excited when she hears her coming up the stairs and greets Alaska with lots of hugs and kisses. Sometimes I’m jealous of how happy my girl gets and I think she loves Alaska more than me. She takes her out for walks, rides, playtime, and she even gets special doggy ice cream dates. And let’s not forget to mention a nice doggy bath. She updates me with pictures daily and just melts my heart to see she’s so happy. She has even made a run to my house when I was stuck at work and worried about my girl when it wasn’t her scheduled time. She sat at my house with her, hand feeding her to get her to eat. She really shows love and compassion for animals and I was so lucky to have found her. She has given me great advice when I’ve questioned things going on and always had an answer.”


Jaime R.

“Jamie made sure both of my kitties had plenty of food. He stayed for an hour each time. They were warming up to him by the fourth day. He will do what you want him to do to take care of your kitties. Thank you, Jamie”


Jesse R.
“Jesse has a remarkable gift for connecting with animals. Their gentle nature and patient demeanor immediately put pets at ease. I've witnessed firsthand how quickly animals warm up to Jesse's calm presence. It's truly heartwarming to see the bond they create with each furry friend. Jesse's dedication to animal welfare is evident in every interaction.”


Kelly F.
“I can’t say enough wonderful things about Kelly! I trusted her to care for my 16-year-old dachshund while I was away for the weekend, and she went above and beyond in every way. My dog had specific needs due to her age, and Kelly handled everything with such compassion, patience, and professionalism. She kept me updated with photos and messages throughout the weekend, which gave me complete peace of mind. My pup looked so content and comfortable in every picture—clearly enjoying her company and care. When I returned, he was relaxed, happy, and clearly well-loved. Kelly has a natural way with animals and treated my senior dog like her own. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring pet sitter. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again!”


Vincent M.

“Vincent did an excellent job taking care of our three cats. It is comforting to know I can trust him to do a great job should I need someone to watch them again.”
