1. Amaya W.

“Amaya was great with my dog Maddie, who is a very strong pit bull. I also appreciated her willingness to accommodate my schedule even though it meant arriving early one morning and staying late one night.”


2. Lori W.

“We LOVE Lori!!! This was our first time with her, so she came over to meet Sophie, gave her lots of loving, and let us get to know her a little bit. Lori came over several times over 2 days, and spent the night with Sophie. She gave us many updates, sent photos, and let us know when she was coming and leaving. Sophie absolutely LOVED her! When we got home, she was happy and didn't seem upset at all, that we were gone (this is only the 2nd time we've left her overnight). We asked Sophie if Lori came to visit her and she waggged her tail, clearly Sophie had a GREAT time with Lori! Lori listened to all the boring things doggie parents want to tell the dogsitter. She did everything we asked and even more. She played frisbee with Sophie and took her on long walks. I assume Lori at something while she was at our house but I didn't see a single speck of evidence that she had been in the kitchen, or even in the bedroom (except that she kindly stripped the bed and made it up to look nice and neat). The next time we need someone, we will definitely call Lori way ahead of time, to make sure we are on her schedule. Thank you Lori!!!”


3. Janine M.

“Janine was amazing watching our pets while we were away for a few days. Severus is a large dog and we trusted Janine to take him out for walks and to care for him. Our cat was very playful and rambunctious and she kept him entertained. We were able to rest assured on our trip that the animals were in good hands during their first weekend without us. Thank you, Janine!”


4. Kristina L.

“Kristina did an amazing job taking care of my dog! She was respectful of my home and made sure to meet my dog a couple of times prior to her house stay. Kristina sent me pictures and video updates. I look forward to having her here again in the future!”


5. Neomi C.

“Neomi is a thoughtful and caring sitter. She took wonderful care of our "senior" dog. We were impressed with the way she followed Rosie's lead in choosing the activities of the day. We highly recommend Neomi!”


6. Charisse S.
“Charisse is personable, honest, reliable, and compassionate. She is great with animals and will take loving care of your pet. My dog, Belle, loves her and is always excited to see her.”


7. Courtnee B.

“Great sitter took great care of my 4 dogs❤️”


8. Kayce M.

“Kayce was an amazing stand in for loving on our pups and kitties. What better than yourself as a pet parent? An amazing lady like Kayce! She was perfect and so accommodating for in home stay to care for our 4 dogs (ages 3 months to 11 years old) and our 2 young cats. She was prompt, courteous and respectful while being so kind and loving to our pets and accommodating our schedule. I’d highly recommend her as well as very likely to use her again for our fur babies. 5 stars all around.”


9. Victoria C.

“Victoria was absolutely wonderful. She was available last minute for me and even was able to stay longer when our trip had an unexpected extension. She cared for our home and 2 dogs as if it was her own. She was kind and caring. I will definitely go to her first next time I need a dog sitter!”




10. Heather C.

“Heather C. Was great with our rescue pit bull, our old man beagle, and our ornery cat. The dogs were happy and comfortable the whole time. We will continue to use Heather for our dog sitting needs.”


11. Hanna M.
“Hanna is an excellent candidate for becoming a dog walker/sitter. She has a passion for caring for others and is extremely responsible. Hanna has watched our two dogs and one cat multiple times and has always done a great job feeding them, making sure they have water, walking them and giving them all the love and attention they need. She will not disappoint!”


12. Hope D.

“Hope was great for us on short notice and was very easy to get in touch with. She was very understanding of our concern about our dog getting out of the house and she ensured extra precautions to make sure he was safe. Will definitely be using her again!”




13. Jessica L.
About: I am an all natural animal lover! I love animals of all types. I find dogs especially to be therapeutic for me. I can promise if i dog sit for you, you won't regret it. They will be in great hands. I’m a SAHM who is looking to make extra income and I would love nothing more than to do that through my love of pets. Let me take care of your furbabies while on vacation with no worries! You won't regret it! I’m a SAHM who’s very flexible! I have a very long history of veterinary experience and pet sitting. Taking care of animals and loved ones holds a special place in my heart. I treat every pet like my own ❤️ each pet is different and some have special needs so I always try to accommodate and make sure each furbaby has what they need whether they are staying with me or in the comfort of their own home.
