“We have had Craig watch our Goldendoodle twice now and he does a fantastic job! Charlie is always calm and happy when we return home! We get updates and photos of how he is doing. Such a good feeling to know he is home and well cared for when we have to be away!”


“Tracy is so awesome, in fact I think Banner likes Tracy more than he likes me now. The updates I get while I'm at work are so reassuring and just make my day. I highly recommend and appreciate Tracy.”



“Linda is very trustworthy and dependable. She sends detailed summaries about our pets and is easy to contact and book with. We have used her services before and will continue to book with her whenever needed. Thanks, Linda!”


“Angie was great with our pups, spent extra time beyond the scheduled appt, great communication, sent plenty of pictures and gave plenty of attention. Excellent Rover, will use again ?”


“This is the second time I’ve booked with Lisa, I’m so thankful she could watch over my pets while I was out of town. She’s such a lifesaver! I’ll be using her again I’m sure!”


“Paris has been an amazing help with our new kitten. Bill was too young to be left alone, but with our jobs we were unable to be as present for him as he needed. Paris not only has shown a great deal of care for him and our dog, but she has given us advice when we have asked for it or otherwise needed it, and genuinely cares about our pets. She is also very communicative and has been a pleasure to work with and we are sure she will continue to be as we continue having her care for our pets.”


“Brooklyn is awesome. Takes great care of the house and me importantly Edmund, my dog. He now like for her in the guest room! Hahaha. I'd say he's happy with her service as well.”


“We love Hannah! She is reliable, consistent, and prioritizes availability. She is also an excellent communicator, and our dog, Bella, loves her!! We are SO grateful for Hannah and know Bella will be well taken care of with her!”


“Jennifer takes great care of my boys. I never worry about them when she is taking care of them. I get great pictures and status updates each day. The only drawback is that when I do come home, they look around me to see if Jennifer is following me. Lol”


“We can't say enough wonderful things about Bree! She took care of our two cats, Coco and Buddy, with so much love and attention—it truly felt like she was treating them as her own. From the moment we met her, we knew our fur babies were in great hands. Bree went above and beyond in every way. She didn’t just make sure they were fed and comfortable— but kept them happy, and even managed to groom Coco better than we ever have (and that’s saying something!). Coco looked like she stepped out of a cat salon when we got home! We came home to two very content, well-loved cats—and a clean, organized space, which was such a bonus. If you're looking for a trustworthy, kind, and truly exceptional pet sitter, Bree is it. We feel so lucky to have found her.”


“Highly recommend! Upon reading the report card from Tonie, a comment was made from another dog owner, "Wow, you got a good rover." I was so nervous leaving my dogs, especially my ailing senior. When my normal dogsitter cancelled last minute, I was very hesitant having a stranger watch my dogs. Tonie did a great job. I actually prefer her over my other sitters.”


“Erin was great! Very communicative and responsive. She came over to meet our pups before we left on vacay and was very friendly and reliable! Would highly recommend.”


About: I have always grown up with animals! I have had dogs, cats, birds, turtles, lizards, rabbits, chinchillas, fish, and most likely more that I just cant remember! I love animals. I currently have 2 dogs and a cat. My one dog was adopted was from ASPCA as a 3 legged dog. This does not slow her down! She loves playing and running. My other dog was adopted from an Amish family as a puppy. She loves to play as well. Both dogs enjoy chasing after my children, playing catch, tug a war, cuddling, going for walks and lots of belly rubs. I also have a cat that loves to cuddle and be loved on. He loves chasing after toys that move and relaxing in his cat tower. I used to own at dog that sadly passed away 2 years that I owned since she was a puppy. Unfortunately she got external cancer on her leg. I had to give her medicine several times a day, wash her wound twice a day, and prepare homemade meals for her. I currently work part time for a school from 9am-230pm so I will have plenty of time before and after that and on weekends to care for your pets. I love taking pets on walks, to the dog park, or just cuddling on the couch. I can drop in to your house as much as needed.
