1. Kristin B.

“Kristin was wonderful and made it very clear that she cared about our kitty and his wellbeing! He is on medication right now and doesn’t cooperate very well, but she was able to get it in him :) would definitely recommend booking her. Thank you, Kristin!!”




2. Lindy & Seth F.


“It can be hard to trust anyone else with your fur baby’s care, but Lindy and Seth gained our trust right away! They were responsive, came over to meet the pups before the booking, and (or favorite) always send photos when they’re with our pups! They are also very flexible, which we SO appreciate. Thank you Lindy and Seth!”


3. Brynn O.

“Brynn is doing such a great job ! I have a wiggly, small puppy and she wrangles him beautifully! I always know I can trust Brynn to do a good job. She lets me know that he goes potty, eats his snack and a play time. It’s not easy to potty train in winter weather but she’s getting the job done! I totally recommend Brynn!”


4. Cherie & Kevin L.

“Amazing as always!”


5. Heidi L.

“Very reliable. Extremely pleasant do work with. I am calling her, “The Cat Whisperer!” Our cat, Marty, is very shy and never comes out for strangers. He doesn’t trust easily. But he sure trusted Heidi. She was patient, intuitive and clever! He not only came out for her, he followed her wherever she went. It was such a treat to get gorgeous pictures and fun videos of Marty while we were gone for the first time ever. He will miss Heidi.”


6. Molly H.

“Molly has been so great, spending quality time with our two cats and sending photos when she visits - it's wonderful peace of mind to know they're being so well cared-for!!”


7. Amanda B.

“I have used Amanda for 2 separate visits and have her booked for a 3rd. Loved using this service as opposed to boarding. My cat was far more comfortable left in my home. Thanks much!”


8. Kyle T.
“Kyle has a true passion for dogs! Kyle is always the first person to offer to help dog sit and take care of a furry friend. Kyle is the most kind and caring person and the dogs absolutely love his playful and kind personality. I would 100% recommend him to care for your furry friend and you can trust they are in safe hands.”


9. Megan G.

“Megan has been very helpful with our new puppy! We really appreciate her!!”


10. Sara M.

“Sara was wonderful! We needed someone last minute and she was so helpful and responsive when I reached out. She was also really good with our dogs and they responded well to her even though she had never met them. We have one dog with diabetes who needs insulin shots and she was very comfortable with this. We'll definitely be using Sara again in the future!”


11. Alicia D.

“Alicia did a great job checking in on Maya! She was prompt and provided detailed updates and pictures. I would definitely use Alicia in the future for pet sitting!”


12. Carrie T.
About: Hi there! This is Carrie and Garrett; mom and a 16 year old. We are lifelong dog lovers with a soft spot for pups of all ages, sizes, and personalities. Whether your dog is full of energy or prefers quiet companionship, we’re here to make sure they feel happy, safe, and cared for while you're away. We offer reliable, loving drop-in visits tailored to your dog’s routine—whether that’s feeding, potty breaks, playtime, administering medications, or just some extra belly rubs and TLC. As pet owners ourselves, 2 dogs and a cat, we understand how important it is to have someone you can trust with your furry family member, and we treat every pup like they’re our own. Feel free to share any special instructions or quirks—we’re happy to accommodate. We look forward to meeting you and your four-legged best friend! Able to administer meds if your pooch needs it. Since Garrett will be part of each visit, until school gets out, weekday drop-ins can be done between 3:30 p.m. and last drop-in at 8:00 p.m. One the weekend, we are free to do drop-ins anytime between 9:00-9:00. We respect any rules you have in your home regarding feedings, where you furbaby is allowed outside, or crating or not when the visit is done.


13. Kate M.

“Kate was awesome. I felt very confident leaving my cats home knowing she would be check up on them. She went over and above. We will definitely work with her again.”


14. Teresa P.


“Teresa did a great job looking after Misha. She conscientiously followed his route and routine. When I got home everything was in order and I was greeted by a happy boy.”


15. Dave M.
“I've known Dave for over 40 years, watching him love and care for several generations of family dogs and cats including mixed breed terriers, pure bred goldens, and stray kittens who were lucky enough to find their way to his garage! He's the kind of guy who always stops to talk to dog owners, scratch their pups ears, and savor wags and kisses. When an original pet sitter fell through for me, I was lucky enough to know that Dave would step in and care for my dog until I could get home. I don't know any pet lover with more patience, kindness, and "animal connection" than Dave”




16. Sarah L.

“Sarah was impeccable - she was prompt, flexible, the dogs loved her, and there were 0 issues. Highly recommend! So thankful she took care of our doggies while we were away.”


17. Myra G.
About: Hello! I am a lifelong pet lover! I grew up on a farm, so animals and their well-being were my responsibility from a young age. Most recently our family adopted a sweet Cavapoo (Lady May) who loves playtime, walks, and snuggles! I am home during the day, making pickups/drop offs flexible and potty breaks frequent! While I do have kids and a husband who also love dogs, I will be responsible for your pups care when they are in our home. I am home most days! I have a flexible schedule that can accommodate your pup’s specific needs. Happy to discuss schedules and how to best keep your pup happy and calm. We live in a walkable neighborhood, so leashed walks are frequent! We do not have a fenced in yard, but make up for that with play and long walks (or short if that’s preferred). I will be responsible for all walks and care for your pup. My kids and husband love dogs, and will provide snuggles, but I will be responsible for your pet’s needs.


18. Jana S.
“Hi! My name is Jeff, and Jana takes wonderful care every weekday (and even some weekends!) of Eddie, my Havanese. Eddie loves Jana. He knows that when he is being cared for by Jana, he will be fed, walked, kept safe, and loved. Eddie loves to cuddle with Jana, and Jana is more than happy to cuddle with Eddie as if he were her own. I am very lucky to have found someone to care for Eddie with as much love as I have for him.”




19. Lori A.

“Lori has taken care of a number of my dogs over the years, including my blind chocolate lab. She has always taken the utmost care of my pets and treats them like a member of her family. Her yard is perfect for all sizes of animals and safely fenced in, and she is situated right by trails for walks. Medications, special diets, etc. are all accommodated. I highly recommend Lori for dog care!”


20. Marie B.

“Marie has been great with our puppy. Her schedule has been flexible, which has been very helpful for us. We have hired her back! Thanks Marie!”
