1. Terry S.
“Terry stayed in our home with Rocky for almost two weeks and was extremely gracious when, due to travel complications , we arrived home at around 4AM! Our home and precious pooch were extremely well cared for. We highly recommend her!”
2. Carley T.
“I've had the pleasure of booking Carley twice now, and both times have been fantastic! She is reliable, attentive, and clearly loves animals.”
3. Faith L.
“This was our first experience with Faith and we've already booked her again. She took care of our two cats and one dog, one cat being a senior and needing regular medicine and they were all well loved, we had picture updates, the house was clean and pets were happy. My only hesitation in writing is other people will see this review and steal her time! Haha. We are so grateful our fur babies and us have found Faith!”
4. Angelle S.
“Angelle house & hound sat for me for two nights. Knowing my pups are extremely shy with people, she spent the entire time "working with them". Despite themselves they started to warm up to and trust her. She was so sweet and respectful of my home. And her doggie report cards!! I almost did not want to do a review for fear she would get too many new bookings to want to sit my pups if needed! :))”
5. Ashley P.
“Ashley helped me out on relatively short notice with my new rescue when I had to go away for a night. She kept a watchful eye on him and made sure not to keep him from starting any of his naughty habits. She sent lots of pics throughout the night and made me feel better about leaving my guy for a night.”
6. Emily D.
“Emily did a great job taking care of our 5 pets! They require some specialized care and she had no trouble doing everything we asked of her! She was also just super nice, left the house clean, and sent us lots of pictures and updates while we were away. We would definitely hire her again!”
7. Zoe M.
“Zoe puts her pets first. Her pets are well taken care of at all times and Zoe provides a loving home for them. She has extensive knowledge regarding various conditions in animals and how to manage their care.”
8. Ilona Arabelle V.
“Arabelle was a joy to work with! She was meticulous in her planning and knowing what needed to be done for Floki, plus making sure she had all emergency numbers and what to do in case of an emergency. She made sure Floki was was very well cared for while we were away and even brought him a new ball to play with! He was walked, fed on time and played with in our yard with frequent communications so that we could see all of the fun he was having. I would highly recommend Arabelle to anyone that needs overnight care or even daily check ins. She was just what we needed and expected for our fur family and will be using her again for future day trips and longer vacations!”
9. Francis E.
“Francis took great care of our two dogs! She stayed at our house as well and kept it clean. She sent lots of pictures and communicated often. Our dogs got lots of cuddles and love.”
10. Anna F.
“Anna was great! She cared for our babies and our house as if they were her own. Everything was clean when we came home. We got pictures every day and she was very reliable. Highly recommend!”

About: I have lived with a dog in my family for as long as I can remember. I have had three dogs (Cherry and Dutty) and am currently petsitting my sister's dog (Thor) on weekday mornings. Thor used to live with me and my family but my sister has recently moved out. I love being around dogs because they show you so much affection without speaking. I always look forward to taking care of my sister's dog. I walk Thor around my neighborhood so he can get some exercise and lead a long healthy life. My sister went to the vet for a check-up and told her he has lost three pounds since I started walking him more :). I also bathe Thor on a monthly basis. My past dog, Dutty, was a smaller dog but I took care of him with the basics such as walking, baths, etc. I was still in my child/adolescent years when Dutty was around. I also have four guinea pigs with two being male (Coconut and Milo) and the other two being female (Peanut and Peanut Jr.). Peanut Jr. is the daughter of Peanut and Milo. Having four guinea pigs is not easy but it has helped tremendously with taking care of dogs. I would say it has made taking care of dogs much easier! I am currently free for most of the week. If you ask for a schedule that I can't attend to, I will let you know. Opening right now are mornings - 10 AM and 2PM -evenings. Every day on a weekday, my sister drops off Thor in the morning at our house. Usually, Thor has already been taken out before my sister drops her off but I take him out if that isn't the case. He is also fed in the morning. Thor seems to be very picky with his food so I have to mix up wet food with his dry food. After this, I leave Thor with my mother so I can feed my guinea pigs and clean their cage. They are in a locked room that Thor can't access for their safety. I try to give Thor as much attention as he likes to cuddle and also be around someone. Even when he is sleeping, he prefers that someone is in the same room with him. Sometimes, I have to watch my nephew for a bit because my mother babysits him while my brother and sister-in-law are at work. Thor is usually happy being around my nephew so it all works out! I make sure Thor isn't rummaging through garbage and pick up anything on the floor that is toxic. Since Thor sheds constantly, I always have to clean the floor to keep the house tidy. I try to walk Thor every three hours and I also would go to my backyard to play with him so he can get some sun.
12. Kaleigh S.
“Kaleigh was great and got up to speed quickly so we could go away for the weekend at short notice. We knew our pets were in good care! Strongly recommend!”
13. Sara M.
“Sara was absolutely incredible. She was communicative, prompt, knowledgeable, and put my mind at ease. My pup is an old girl with ailing health and a picky mind when it comes to food. Sara showed up in the creativity to hook my kid up. On top of that, my flight fell through to the next day- she was flexible, allowing me to focus on other matters. Bless. I will definitely be using Sara again in the future. HIGHLY recommend”
14. Sophia D.
“Sophia has always been loving, caring and affectionate with my pup Abby. She "babysat" for Abby overnight when she was just a few months old I felt confident she would be loved and cared for while she was with Sophia. Sophia is not just a great dog sitter she is an awesome young lady.”

About: I’ve taken care of animals my whole life. I’ve always had a deep love for all animals and caring for them. Please don’t hesitate to reach out for any and all pet needs! I currently work 4 days a week but always make time to fit pet care in since I have 2 dogs of my own! Let me take care of your babies! I can easily crate your dog if you prefer, or leave them to hang out with my 2 friendly dogs. I am available to come to your home and treat it as if it’s my own and care for it with my all!
16. Julia H.
“Julia took excellent care of both our pup and our home! Our Frenchie has back issues and Julia was very sensitive to them, and comfortable caring for her despite them. We will definitely book with Julia again!”
17. Elizabeth A.
“Elizabeth was fantastic with our puppy and respectful of our home!”
18. Nina B.
About: I have always loved all animals! I grew up in a house with multiple dogs (specifically goldendoodles, labs, and GSPs) and can’t imagine my day to day life without animal interaction! I have experience with all ages, puppies through senior dogs. Additionally, I have experience with cats (also grew up owning multiple cats)! I am extremely flexible with timing! I can be available early AM and late PM! Also available mid day for a lunch time visit/walk! Weekends are open as well :) I overall understand pets’ needs. With this being said, I am willing to take dogs on long walks (1hr +) or crate if owner preferred!
19. Amanda G.
About: I have experience working with dogs and growing up with dogs. I worked at a dog groomers. So I know how to bathe, give medicine and understand temperament. I am well qualified to work with puppies as well as senior dogs. I have also worked on a farm. This home loves doggy snuggles. I have a couple days off from work I am able to help as I only work part time. I am also currently on certain days able to help before work or after. My home currently only has a cat. So if you need a home free of other dogs I can provide that. I have a yard I am able to walk dogs in and a nice neighborhood with little traffic to take pups on a walk. I have a good amount of space in my home for all sizes pups.
