“Ryan is a breath of fresh air after having several poor pet sitter experiences. We are very thankful to have found her, as we are completely at ease during our trips out of town. She is thoughtful, prompt, and thorough. We love her and so do Bonnie and Panda!”


“We really appreciate Patrick and the care he provides to our pets. Third time this year so far that we have been blessed with his services. Very much satisfied and it is a great relief knowing our fur babies are well cared for and happy. They love Patrick!”


About: I’ve been taking care of animals for years! I have lots of experience with different breeds and many different types of caregiving. Some of my experience includes watching two very active pit bull mix siblings. I would check in on the dogs 4+ times per day, take each one on a 2+ mile walk every day, and spend at least 1-2 hours of sit down time so they weren’t lonely. I watched those lovely dogs for 2-3 weeks at a time for numerous years! My most recent experience was taking care of Two english pointers, a rottweiler, and smaller mutt dog for 3 nights! Each dog had a separate feeding space and interactive form of eating. I made sure to follow their owners specific instructions and give the dogs lots of walks, outside time, and sit down time for 5+ hours a day! As well as the dogs I took care of two goats at that home as well! I am very capable of walking and pet sitting many different dogs. I have experience with smaller dogs like Mini poodles, to high energy large dogs like weimaraners. I will do my best to give your animals the love and care they deserve. I will make sure that they are healthy, safe, and most importantly happy! I’m currently working part time at the Sunset Country club. Even with my work I should and will be able to schedule and give your pets the best of care that includes at least 3 or more check ins per day and walks twice or more a day, depending on their needs and your request. I do not work Mondays, which makes me more free! I care for pets to the best of my ability and give them the most love and care I am capable of! Between my two households, I have 2 dogs and recently one that passed. I take care of my pets and others pets to the best of my ability and want to ensure that your pets are cared for and you trust and are confident that they are healthy, safe, and most importantly, happy! I will always adjust to you and your pets needs, so please communicate openly and fully so I can do my best to give your pets the best!

“Dave was amazing with our two English bulldogs! We were worried about leaving our dogs for the first time with someone other than family but he did an amazing job putting us as ease. He kindly came for a meet and greet and interacted so well with them! He kept us updated with photos and messages and did an incredible job! We will definitely be rebooking!”


“Maddelyn is a kind & gentle soul. She is very quick and responsive to messages. She was available on short notice and still made time for a meet and greet. We have never left our fur baby with anyone but family until Maddelyn. She did multiple drop-in visits daily for us. Kingston our labador retriever is 9 years old and is happy in his own surroundings. She made that possible while still giving him love and attention. He took to her as soon as she walked in the door, for a meet & greet. We felt very comfortable leaving him in her care for the week. Thank you Maddelyn for loving on our Kingston while we were gone.”

About: I have been taking care of dogs for family, friends, and neighbors since I was 14. I have grown up around dogs and currently have a senior beagle. I also have experience volunteering at animal shelters with dogs of many sizes, breeds, and ages, from puppies to seniors. I’m a college student who works part-time, so I have lots of time to spend with your dog! I am available most evenings as well as weekends and some mornings. I have plenty of dog walking experience in both high- and low-traffic areas. As a sitter, I am able to stay in-home with your pet or do drop-in visits.

“Kelly did a great job! It was our first time hiring a pet sitter but we had to because there weren't any boarding spots left for our two cats. I was worried about being gone for a week but Kelly was very reassuring and capable. She came by every other day to check on them and play with them. Both cats were friendly and liked her, which made me feel even more at peace. The first visit, one of my cats brought her a dead mouse, which has never happened before! Kelly was great and cleaned it up after letting me know about it. Our return was delayed due to the Southwest flights meltdown and we had to drive home. Kelly made sure to check on their food and water levels, which made me feel more at ease, as we embarked on our 29 hour drive! I recommend Kelly and would rebook with her again.”

While you’re away, I’d love to keep to the same schedule that your pet is used to and minimize their stress. We can go for walks, sit in the backyard together, or just watch tv on the couch! I’m a good photographer, so you can expect plenty of photos of whatever we end up doing!

I would be more than happy to watch your animals on the weekday as well as the weekend. I care for pets by keeping surveillance over them as much as possible, as well as making sure they are in a safe and clean environment.

Kelly D.
“Kelly gets 5 Stars. Her and Buffy just clicked immediately, which is not always the case. She stayed for 7 days and had to give her a lot of attention. Buffy wasn't eating and Kelly work with her to make her feel comfortable and she finally started eating. Kelly asked me for an itinerary for the different thing in the house. She respected our home, left everything exactly how we left it. We will request her in the future.”
