“Abbey was great, would highly recommend. Was hesitant about leaving my doggie at 1st but after meeting abbey I was relieved. It worked out perfectly and will Def use again”


“Bridget did a wonderful job with both our cat and dog. She went above and beyond with regards to sending photos, keeping us up to date on everything, and making sure our pets were happy. It was visible in the photos how comfy and content our pets were with her. She even did arts and crafts with them and took Letti to get ice cream. On top of all this, Bridget was watching our pets at a point where the cat and dog were getting used to living with one another, and she did a wonderful job giving them supervised interactions and continuing our socialization for both of them while we were gone. Can’t recommend her enough!”


“We couldn't be more grateful for Jessie! She took amazing care of our beloved shepherds and our home while we were on vacation. Before finding Jessie, my husband and I rarely traveled together—we're very particular about who we trust with our dogs and our home. Jessie exceeded our expectations in every way. From the moment we booked with her, communication was clear, timely, and thoughtful. She kept us updated throughout our trip with messages and photos that gave us total peace of mind. It was clear our pups were happy, relaxed, and in great hands. We were able to truly enjoy our vacation knowing everything back home was being cared for so well. Jessie’s attention to detail, reliability, and genuine love for animals completely won us over. We feel incredibly lucky to have found her and are already looking forward to future travel plans now that we have someone we trust completely. Highly, highly recommend!”


“Maura was a wonderful house/animal sitter. She gave us updates with pictures throughout our weeklong vacation & left our home in pristine condition. It’s always hard to leave your “babies” behind but having Maura there really gave us a sense of relief. We would highly recommend her and have already booked with her again!”


“Kari and Clint were very very thoughtful house sitters with my pups. They were well cared for and Kari sent me daily pictures and updates. It was an almost 3 week stay with some freezing weather days. I have one young mischievous dog. He made a get-away, but Kari took care to coax him back. My other pet is an old dog with walking disability. She always patiently always helps him up when he stumbled. The house also was well cared for. She thoughtfully left milk, bread, and sandwiches for our return. She also looked after our flock of hens! I appreciate her very much.”


“By far the best sitter we have ever had! We were in a pinch when we got scammed from another sitter, and we asked Meghan to watch our pups last minute for 9 days. She quickly accepted and came over the same day we contacted her. She was great with our home and our dogs…she sent daily updates, checked our mail, and even cleaned the house up a bit. Such a great sitter, we will always see if she is available first from now on! Thank you Meghan!!”

About: Hey pet owners, I am a fan of dogs, unfortunately, my week is so busy. I don't want to own a dog, it stinks. It would be mean to leave the dog caged for so many hours a day. I have access to a dog park, I like to walk and run(don't worry I carry water), I enjoy animals simply put. I dated a vet for a while, so I know basic first aid. I work in the security field(not a mall cop lol), I will show you my license. This hopefully will ease your mind, to have your dog's watched at home and drop-ins. Who wouldn't want to spend their weekends playing with animals? I'm excited to meet you and your animals. See you soon!

“Beth is a wonderful caretaker for your beloved pets! She kept me informed of how things were going, and she took care to make sure the water and food bowls were clean each day. I was very grateful for her services!”



“April is the BEST!!!!!! We had her stay for an extended period while on vacation. We received pics of our fur-daughter as well as updates.

Abby H.
“We have used Abby several times over the last two years to help care for our puppies. We have two boxers who now love Abby and when she comes to visit them. She ensures she is on time, and spends quality time with our dogs. They love to see her coming because they know she loves to play with them and take them for walks. Abby does a great job communicating and letting me know if there are any concerns and how the dogs are doing. It is a great peace of mind to have her when we are out of town.”
