“Amy took very good care of my dog Abby. She sent me several pictures when she was out playing with my dog which was great because it made me feel like she was safe and being well taken care of. I highly recommend Amy”


“We have two needy pups who do not do well on their own for long periods of time. Jace came for the day while we were out and we came home to some happy pups. Jace was on time and very friendly. The pups took to him right away. He sent photos through out the day with updates which we really appreciated.”


“I found Nadalie to be quite reliable with house-sitting and cat-sitting for me when I was away. She took our garbage to the curb and returned the cans and kept our outdoor plants watered as requested. My cat was healthy and happy when I returned home. My home was kept neat and was clean when I arrived back from my trip. I am pleased with her service.”


“Sarah was absolutely incredible! She made sure our kitten Marleau was well taken care of and showered in love. She was super responsive and sent tons of pics and videos, which was amazing since this was our first time leaving our little man for more than a few days. We were able to fully enjoy our vacation knowing Marleau was in great hands. I would highly recommend Sarah for any of your pet sitting needs!”


“Anna is absolutely amazing! She took such great care of our two dogs and two cats, and was really good about communicating. She even sent us pictures of our fur babies, and updates on how they were doing. She was super respectful of our house, and is so kind and great with our animals. Our cats and dogs warmed up to her quickly and she genuinely cares about them! I recommend her highly--you won't be disappointed!”


“Peggy was so great with our three dogs. We will absolutely trust her with our dogs again and would strongly recommend her to any pet parent, especially one with some special needs. We have two Papillions (13+14 years old) who both have their own issues. Our male is standoffish with people and doesn’t like anyone but he accepted her. Our female has some hearing and cognitive issues including nightmares but she showed patience and love and took great care of them. Our third dog is a 1 1/2 year old, 115 lb Great Pyrenees so we cover the spectrum with dog sizes. She also house sat for us and gave us that additional piece of mind.”


“Hallie is a senior lab very attached to me so can be challenging to sit for in my absence. Even though Chloe just met her, I was very pleased to return home to a happy and healthy girl who obviously did just fine and must have enjoyed her time with Chloe.”


“Penny has watched our dogs and house twice and each time, has provided great service. Our dogs are happy and healthy, and our house is clean. She communicated well and send pictures and updates daily. Thank you Penny! We appreciate you so much!”


“Waylon stayed in our home with our two huskies and did an excellent job. He was great with communication, took amazing care of both our home and our dogs, and made the whole experience worry-free. I would highly recommend him to anyone and would definitely book with him again.”



“Shawn is amazing, I highly recommend her! She took such wonderful care of my two senior dogs while I was away. Shawn sent me notes and photos so I knew exactly how my dogs were doing and gave me peace of mind knowing they were well cared for. I came home to happy dogs and a well-kept home, I couldn’t have asked for more!”


“Jordan was excellent. I only adopted Oso the day prior but was called in to work. She met with Oso that day to ensure the two were a match. She responded with very short notice to dog sit within my home overnight. Her communication was perfect and she updated me often with how Oso was doing, what they were up to, and with multiple photos showing a very happy rescue.”


“Melinda is the best! She takes great care of our house and our boys. Any pet is lucky to have her (and her son, with owner permission) take care of them. Ours got regular walks and lots of playtime while we were out of town. It's always a relief when Melinda is available to stay when we are gone.”


About: Hello, I am also an avid dog owner (I have had 3 Boxers, I currently just have a medium Cavapoodle (Doodle)), a Chiweenie, and an Alaskan Malamute. I can walk, help train, potty train, and spend time with your dog while you are busy. I love animals and would love to help your animal get the love that it needs while you are away. My schedule is flexible, I am a school teacher, but I can be available before and after school for walks, home visits, and other needs. I am also available on weekends. Thanks for considering me, I look forward to working with you and your pet when you need a little help. I hope to provide good care for your dog when you most need it from one dog lover to another. I can also provide services for other animals as well. Please consider our home, it's fantastic! Your pet will be truly loved here, so no worries! During the summer, I am available full time for animal care and babysitting services. So, go on your vacations and trips and have some peace of mind about your fur babies on their vacation! I can also keep your dog/cat separated from mine if needed, if your dog or cat does not do well with other dogs I have plenty of space, and front and back yards to separate them. I am on a teacher schedule. Home at night. Someone is always available at the house for care. Your fur babies will never be on their own. 24/7 supervision. We also have two little girls here, but they love animals and are used to large and small dogs. No allergies. I spend a lot of time with them on walks, playing, interaction, yard time, and reward time. My dogs are medium trained, and well behaved. They get along great with other dogs. I feed my dogs twice per day, but can feed yours on any schedule you would prefer.

“Katherine and her son have quickly become our favorite doggy nanny’s for Java by far. They spend special attention and kept to our instructions for our little guy. It really shows how much they love animals. On the first sitting Java had a hard time letting them leave. Thank you again for both of your wonderful.”


About: I’m 19 and have been around animals my whole life. I’ve cared for everything from horses to guinea pigs and have fostered dogs and kittens through the Humane Society. I'm comfortable with all kinds of pets and always treat them like family! I’m currently studying for my real estate license, so I have a super flexible schedule and spend a lot of time at home. That means your pets will have plenty of company, attention, and care while you’re away! I’m really good at reading pets’ body language to make sure they’re happy and comfortable. I follow your care instructions closely and keep your home clean. I love sending picture updates so you can see how your pets are doing, and I always try to leave your place even better than I found it.

“Alexia was a great sitter for our pup while we were away on a family trip! She was very communicative while we were gone and we came home to a happy pup and our home just as we left it! We would definitely use Alexia again in the future!”


“Natascha did great! I look forward to having her watch our pups again. She kept me informed, took pictures, and left my house in exceptional shape. She was patient with my very anxious dog, I highly reccomend her!”


About: My first dog was when I was 8 years old. I love dogs of all shapes,breeds and sizes. I would love to come over and walk your dog or just be with them. I can even take care of cats. I am always available and my name is Brett. I am a artist and play in bands. But my girlfriend and I have a dog a cat and a bunny. We walk the dog and bunny. The cat stays inside. But we feed them and just care for them. I will feed them and clean up after them if need be. I'll show them love and attention. Also I'll take them on walks.
