“Donai did an amazing job caring for my babies! I have an eclectic mix of animals - a dog, a cat, and a bearded dragon. She came to meet everyone and really get to know them and their routines before her stay, and then provided updates throughout the weekend. I definitely recommend using Donai!”

“Mary was absolutely WONDERFUL cannot recommend her enough!! Left our house beautifully clean and the animals absolutely loved her! She even brought them some parting toys on her way out, so nice! Tons of updates and pictures, felt extremely safe with her on our home 🩷 even our super shy kitty loved her!!”

“Becca was very sweet and attentive to our babies needs! She kept us updated with daily pictures and messages about how they were doing. Will definitely continue hiring her in the near future!”

“Kaitlyn was an excellent care giver and companion to my senior pup. Kaitlyn made wonderful suggestions and accommodations to Lacey’s diet. Lacey was well-loved. 🥰In addition, she was conscientious in ensuring the house stayed neat.”

“Highest recommendation! Penny represents the utmost in professional care for your pets. We had the great fortune of using her in-home pet sitting while away on vacation. From the get-go, Penny set herself apart with highly responsive communication and respectful punctuality. She was immediately at ease with our pets, and provided numerous daily update photos so we knew everything was going well while we were away. Going further, she patiently provided the extra care our senior dog needs in terms of daily medication and food preparation. Penny is everything a great pet sitter should be!”


“Tabitha was great with my two big puppies. They got lots of exercise and TLC, and she sent me lots of photos, which I absolutely love to get. The house was spotless when we got home — just really above-and-beyond service.”

About: I have years of experience providing reliable and passionate pet care for all ages and sizes. I am also experienced in puppy training, senior care, and providing medication if needed. I take the utmost care to ensure that your pup's safety and wellbeing are always my top priority. I work from home so I am flexible in that regard. I can take my work around any space if needed and work around your schedule. I clean up after pets thoroughly as well as provide them with lots of potty breaks and exercise. I never have them meet new dogs for their safety.
“Gabrielle is always great to have watch Rufus. Communicates well and I always come home to a clean house and a happy boy :) Thank you for everything, Gabrielle!”

About: I have taken care of dogs of all different breeds and ages for several years. Most recently, I provided long term care for an elderly dog with high anxiety. She required extra patience and special care— two things that I would be able to provide your animal as well! I am available before or after work on weekdays for drop-in visits or walks. I am available full-time on weekends for the same two services. I offer updates to pet owners after every drop-in visit or walk. I prioritize safety and wellness with constant supervision and being mindful of my surroundings.
“Maya stayed the weekend with my two dogs and two cats. My creatures are a little high maintenance, but Maya handled it all well! Everyone was happy when we got home, and the house was exactly how we left it. She shared great pictures and updates. She came to visit the crew a week prior to get to know them. Would definitely recommend her and will work with her again!”

About: My passion for caring for animals started at a young age. I spent many hours volunteering at my local animal shelter as well as having the privilege of caring for my own pets at home. Growing up, I raised reptiles, fish, dogs, cats and hamsters….to name a few! In addition to being a down-to-earth, compassionate human, my friends would say I am trustworthy, responsible and reliable. I would love the opportunity to get to know you and your furbabies (we can probably just call them children at this point, right) :) I am a very active person and enjoy walking, hiking and spending as much time outdoors as possible. My schedule is very flexible which would allow me work around yours! I can’t wait to get to know your furry friend!
“Sandra exceeded our expectations by a mile! We have two 6 month old Golden Retriever puppies who are a lot of work and Sandra handled their care with ease! We received morning and evening updates with plenty of pictures to relieve our anxiety from leaving them. One of our puppies needed two daily medications and Sandra was very prompt with their med schedule. She provided daily walks and was always there to let them outside to run around and play and give them plenty of love. When we returned from our trip we had daily notes on what the boys were up to, any new behaviors or just new funny quirks they developed. We also were able to see the spreadsheets she brought verifying the walks and meals they were given. Our house was left very clean and tidy and so were the puppies! It’s not even a question, we will most definitely be using Sandra in the future!!”

Casey was great with out huskey and golden retriever! He stayed at our home for two weeks and made sure to care for our boys including bringing in their food deliveries and random packages that got delivered while we were gone. He was respectful of our place and took excellent care of our pups. Sent photos and did a lot of walks! Highly recommend him for pet sitting!
