“We are so glad we found Brigid. Our dog, Roscoe, was comfortable with her right away when we had our meet-and-greet. Brigid asked good questions and took notes. She and her house are well-suited for a little dog visitor. She has a nice, fenced-in yard. Her couch is a cozy spot for napping, snuggling and looking out the window. Brigid stayed in touch with us leading up to our trip and while we were away. It was so fun for us to hear and see pictures of how Brigid and Roscoe were spending their time. I felt that they had developed a special bond and I can't wait to book Brigid again. I think Roscoe feels the same way.”



“This was our first time booking with Kyle, and she was great! Our pup can be rather anxious initially when going somewhere new, but she relaxed very quickly with Kyle. Kyle was always responsive and reassuring, and sent lots of photo updates. Traveling is hard for me because I hate being away from my "kids", but I was able to relax and enjoy my scheduled time away because of Kyle. Ripley can't wait to book again!”


“Maegan accommodated my schedule to pick Hadley up a different day than we originally booked. She left a birthday party just so I could pick up our pup after our trip!”


“Cheryle is a great dog-sitter. Her house is well set-up for a little dog, with low couches, ramps and lots of cozy spots. Her dachsund was a great companion for my dog, Roscoe. Roscoe came home calm and happy after 5 days at Cherlye's. He was on a variety of meds for a sore back and she managed all those well and took great care of him.”


“Larry took excellent care of our dog while we were away for the weekend. He was extremely professional and made sure to ask questions to ensure our dog was as comfortable as possible. We received updates during our time away on how our little guy was doing. We were extremely satisfied with our experience and will definitely keep Larry in mind for our next trip!”


“Stephanie and her whole family was sweet with my dog. She gave daily updates and even sent videos/pics I highly recommend if you're in a pinch and have to go out of state via airport!”


About: Friends and family members have trusted me to care for their furry loved ones for as long as I can remember. Our furry friends deserve just as much love and care as we do. I work from home three days out of the week, so I am able to care for pets during the day. I am also incredibly available throughout the weekends and each weeknight. I maintain a consistent daily routine for feeding, potty breaks, and playtime to keep pets feeling secure and comfortable. I keep clients updated with photos and updates on their pets' well-being, so they can feel confident that their furry friend is in good hands. I create a pet-friendly environment with plenty of space for pets to roam, play, and relax. I ensure all areas are pet-proofed and free from hazards. Pets receive lots of attention, playtime, and cuddles. I offer enrichment activities like toys and outdoor walks.

“Jayla was so great! She was incredibly responsive and provided helpful updates. I felt so comfortable leaving our pet with her. You could tell she really treated our dog like he was a part of her family. We will definitely be rebooking with Jayla in the future. Highly recommend!”


“Emmaly was amazing! She send photos and communicated how sombra was doing everyday. She took extra care of her when she stopped eating her food by sharing her own dogs food. She was exceptional and sombra had so much fun staying with her.”

“Imonia is TRULY THE BEST!! She’s so attentive and sweet to my pup! Very quickly became my go to dog sitter for any length of time - I know when buddy is with Imonia he is well taken care of, probably even more spoiled then when he’s home with me 🥰”



“Debbie was AMAZING! She will definitely be my go-to sitter from now on. She was so kind accommodating my last-minute request and answered all of my questions. Im usually so anal about who I leave my dogs with and schedule meet-and-greets well I’m advance, but something popped up last minute and she was She has a HUGE beautiful fenced in yard that my dogs went crazy for. Her two sweet chihuahuas were great company. Could not recommend more.”


“Catherine and her family are so sweet and accommodating. I got updates throughout the stay and my pup was so well taken care of and loved. I was almost convinced my dog wouldn’t want to come home with me after all the love and attention they gave her!! Thank you so much!”

“Both Serhii & Olesia were both extremely caring of Keeper and followed instructions very carefully so my vacation was stressfree. I highly recommend them for your future needs!”


“Extremely good pet sitter. My elderly dog stayed over thanksgiving break and I got frequent updates/pictures. Very intuitive about my dog’s wants/needs. You would struggle finding a better person to take care of your animals, especially if you have a dog with a big personality.”


“Amanda was amazing with my high-energy dog! Darla got to go on long walks, even a hike, and made sure she got plenty of exercise and attention. I really appreciated Amanda’s patience and care—my dog came home happy and tired! Highly recommend for anyone, Darla can’t wait to go back.”


“Jessica is the best. My dog is 14 years old and set in his ways, Jessica was great with him. Sent me pics and kept me updated on all phases of the day. Would recommend her to anyone. Very friendly and responsive. Looking forward to my next vacation and will definitely be requesting her. Jessica, Thank you for taking such good care of Dusty.”



“I highly recommend booking with Cong! She sent so many pictures and videos while my dog, Koda, was staying with her. I hate leaving Koda with people other than family but Cong made me feel comfortable and she communicated constantly throughout Koda’s stay. It was nice to know that Koda was enjoying her time and playing with other dogs! She came home very tired - and a tired dog is a happy dog!!”
