“Rachel did an awesome job with my boys, Parker and Ranger. She had them for a week. She sent me updates and pictures everyday. Went above and beyond when they went on a food strike. We will definitely be returning customers! Thank you Rachel”


“We are so glad we found Sheri! For years we took our dog to a kennel when we traveled. They took good care of him, but he always came home stressed. Now he comes home calm and happy. He loves going to Sheri's house for his own little vacation when we travel. She takes him for walks daily, he gets to be her shadow at home and he gets lots of healthy treats. What could be better?! ”


“Sarah did a great job watching Sparky on an overnighter. She sent lots of pictures and Sparky was able to play with other dogs while he was there. After he got home, he ate his dinner and went right to sleep.”


“Worked great with my dog! Had some very good suggestion and made some observations that I had thought about! 10/10! I would definitely recommend!”


“Angela did an amazing job watching our Iggy for a few days while we were out of town. We loved and enjoyed all the pictures and videos she sent throughout the stay. Will 100% recommend and book again.”


“Very easy process of meeting and booking with Sara. I could tell my dog, Baxter, loved the stay because he was pooped as soon as I brought him home. I don't need an overnight sitter very often, but will return again if so.”


“Absolutely amazing, her communication was amazing and she was so friendly and understanding. She consistently sent me pictures and videos of my kitten which helped so much with my nerves about leaving him. I will forever recommend Katie as a pet sitter!”



“I could not have asked for a better experience! Christi provided me with the perfect amount of communication and sent me adorable photos and updates. I would 100% recommend her to anyone looking for a caring sitter for their fur baby and will definitely seek her out in the future!”


“Virginia took great care of our puppy while we were away. I highly recommend her. We felt great knowing that she was in a loving home with sweet people.”


“Elaine was great with my 11 month old pup! She was very kind and communicative. She also sent me many pictures of my girl playing with her dogs and grandchildren. We will definitely use Elaine as a sitter for Penny in the future!”


“Skyler was great with Hank and sent pictures everyday of their walks and let me know how he was doing. He really helped me out and was very nice!”


“Aleah is an absolute gem! I couldn’t have asked for a better person to watch my dog, Susan, while I was out of town. She was incredibly flexible and accommodating when some major plans changed on my end and never once missing a beat. From the very start, Aleah went above and beyond to ensure Susan was not only cared for, but truly loved. Before the stay, we did a meet and greet and a plus was that we also got to meet Aleah’s dog, and the two became instant best friends. It was such a bonus knowing Susan would have a companion to play with the whole time. Aleah had previously arranged to watch my dog independently but they hit it off and we adjusted the plans to help the friendship flourish. Throughout my trip, Aleah kept me updated with the most amazing photos of their adventures together. It made me feel completely at ease and totally stress-free. Aleah is kind, responsible, and clearly loves what she does. I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, compassionate sitter who will treat your dog like family. Thank you, Aleah!”


“Nick was great and very accommodating. Our pups were well cared for and loved by Nick and his beautiful daughter. We'll definitely recommend him!”


“We just picked up Rusty after his 9 day stay with Antoinette, her husband, and 2 young daughters, as well as their friendly dog, Max. What a wonderful and dog loving family they are! Rusty gets excited as soon as he spies their house, and we feel so comfortable with Antoinette's care. We get numerous texts and pictures showing how much fun Rusty is having. We could not imagine a better temporary home for Rusty!”


“Avery went out of her way to make me and my blind dog feel comfortable. I came back to a dog who was well cared for and in as good of shape as when I dropped him off. I received several reassuring texts, photos and videos while gone. Cannot imagine a more comfortable experience for both my dog or myself. I am delighted to have found such a caring dog sitter.”


“Jory took good care of our pup, and it was clear that Jory is very familiar with and comfortable taking care of dogs. He was very responsive leading up to the stay, and sent us pictures throughout the stay so we knew Roo was having a good time.”



“Amazing sitting. Super responsive, great communicator. Super easy drop off and my little boy had an amazing time. Even got his nails trimmed. 10/10”


“Brooke is the best, and Hugo loves staying with her and Lambeau her very sweet and gentle dog. Hugo is very attached to me but this time dropping him off with Brooke, he ran in her house and never looked back. She also sends lots of pictures and videos!! Thank you Brooke”

“Skye was absolutely the best sitter for Bobby and especially Sadie. She was so kind and sweet with Sadie and Bobby, they were happy to see me, but I think they might have been just as happy staying longer with Skye!!”



About: I have 2 dogs of my own. Very flexible schedule. Grew up with dogs all of my life. I've cared for a variety of dogs.. from chihuahuas to Rottweilers. And any age. My dogs are very friendly, and could join for dog walks to make fur friends. I would love to help out with your pup, since we all have busy lives, and don't want them cooped up all day. I hope I can help out. I can do overnights, just would prefer dog walking and checking In. But we can discuss overnight stays if I work with you and your pup for a good amount of time. I can do drop bys frequently, since I have a flexible schedule. Thank you, and have a good day!
