“Everything went well on our trip with Matthew doing a great job taking care of our 2 dogs for 2 nights. Both seemed to enjoy his stay and we would recommend him to anyone who needs a sitter.”

“Eric was fantastic! Moose and mittens loved him. He messaged everyday with pictures to make sure we knew our babies were taken care of. Very nice and personable and trustworthy. Thank you so much Eric! We will definitely be using him if he’s available for our next trip!”
About: I have a dog of my own, and I’m away for college so I don’t see him much. I would love to connect with other dogs so I can feel more at home! I am currently a college student, so I have plenty of time to walk or visit your dog! I am available Monday-Thursday after 5pm, Friday after 1pm, and selective weekends. I have an electric fence at home which my dog has adapted to. I also make sure to walk him and play with him in order to keep him active, since he is an older dog.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a kid, including my black lab, Sadie. She taught me how to be thoughtful of how pets feel, and as she aged, how to clean up lots and lots of poop in the house! I believe pets deserve a happy alternative to being boarded, and I intend to give that genuine connection to any pet I encounter! I am currently on summer break from college, but I decided to stay in the area. I have a couple of part-time jobs, but they are only a few hours a day, so I can designate more time to taking care of your pets! I can be pretty flexible with hours and days, and I don't care what time of day it is to make sure your pet gets the attention they need. Pet safety is my top priority. I make sure pets are always in a secure environment—free from hazards, toxic plants, or small items they could swallow. I follow any routines or instructions you provide closely, from feeding schedules to exercise needs. As a collegiate athlete, I prioritize healthy foods and exercise, and I will make sure your pets do as well. In your home, I treat your space with respect and maintain a calm, comforting environment to reduce stress for your pet. I always supervise outdoor time and use secure leashes or fenced areas. You can count on regular updates and photos, so you feel confident your pet is happy and well cared for.

“Shawntel was so amazing and made me feel so comfortable leaving my baby. She sent pictures multiple times a day with updates & made sure everything was neat and tidy when I got home. 10/10”

About: I’ve taken care of family pets my whole life, including Labrador retrievers, rescues, and Pembroke Welsh corgis. I love all dogs, playing, walking and cuddling with them! I currently work at a hospital (3 12hr shifts). On days off, I can pop in whenever, and days that I work would be early in the morning and later in the evening. I know how to properly feed dogs, safely walk them with traffic and other dogs, and play with them to ensure they are getting by exercise and socialization time.
About: I have animal sat for neighbors, family and friends. I love being outside and caring for animals. I have experience feeding bathing and walking dogs of all sizes! I am available mornings and evenings for walks! I am waiting to start another job so I will be flexible until the end of summer! I am able to come by and let your dogs out and take them on walks, I have friends and family who I do this for as well!
“Alexea was great! She took incredible care of my dogs while I was way for my wedding. It was great to not worry about them while I was gone. I came home to a clean house and well taken care of dogs. I couldn't be happier.”

“Jaina was very responsive and communicative during our trip. This was my first time hiring a petsitter so I was already nervous, but my sheltie Piper does NOT like strangers so that added more stress. Jaina worked with us to have a few (loud) meet and greets with Piper to familiarize herself with her. It took a day but Piper soon warmed up to her and settled which allowed us to relax and enjoy our trip. I'm very grateful to Jaina for handling our anxious dog and reassuring us with her daily and sometimes twice a day updates.”

“Tony was super communicated and kept us updated about how our fur children were through out our time away. He was very good at handling our dog (who needs medication twice a day) and was pleasant to meet! 10/10 would recommend! Will definitely book with him again!”


“Paula did a great job caring for our 2 dogs while we were away. She kept us informed of her drop ins and included pictures of our 2 guys. Our dogs were happy and content with Paula and we will certainly hire her again.”

“Alessandra took wonderful care of our 14 yr old dog. Our dog requires a little more attention when it comes to feeding and she was able to manage his needs. Alessandra communicated frequently and sent photo updates. Definitely recommend.”

About: Hi! I’m a reliable and responsible dog lover who genuinely enjoys spending time with animals. I have experience caring for dogs of all sizes and personalities, and I understand how important it is to keep them safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. Whether it’s walks, playtime, feeding, or just keeping your dog company, I’ll treat your pet like my own. I’m dependable, attentive, and committed to making sure both you and your dog feel at ease. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I build my schedule around being consistent and dependable. I’m available in the mornings for feeding, walks, and check-ins before starting my day, and I’m home in the afternoons, which gives me time to spend with dogs for exercise, play, and attention. I do work part-time in the evenings about five days a week, but I plan around that so dogs are never left without care for long. Before work, I make sure they’ve had a walk, time outside, and attention, and when I get home, I stick to an evening routine with another walk, feeding if needed, and time to wind down. On my days off and weekends, I have much more flexibility, so I’m able to give extra time, longer walks, and more one-on-one attention. Overall, I’m very structured with my time, so even with a busy schedule, pet care is something I prioritize and stay consistent with. Your dog won’t just be “watched”—they’ll be cared for like they’re my own. I keep a consistent, structured routine so they feel comfortable and stress-free while you’re away. Throughout the day, I make sure they’re never bored or ignored—whether that’s playtime, walks, or just hanging out so they have company. I pay close attention to their mood and energy, so high-energy dogs stay active and tired, while calmer dogs get a more relaxed, easygoing day. I stick closely to your dog’s normal routine and any specific instructions, because I know the little details matter. Bottom line: your dog gets consistency, attention, and someone who actually cares—not just someone stopping by.
“Katrina was amazing! Her communication was excellent, she followed all of our instructions perfectly, and most importantly, she gave our Teddy so much love while we were away. We felt completely at ease knowing he was in such good hands. We will definitely be using Katrina again!”

Greg did a great job with both of my dogs, who took to him right away. They usually take a bit to warm up to men, but were rolling over for belly rubs within minutes of him walking through the door! Greg made two pre-visits to our house to make sure we covered everything and to meet the dogs before our booking. We would definitely book Greg again!
