“Victoria did an amazing job taking care of our 2 pups. She sent tons of pictures everyday and left our house immaculate. Will be happy to have her take care of our dogs again.”
“Ayla took wonderful care of our two dogs while we were away. What impressed us most was Ayla came over twice before her services started to get familiar with the dog and the surroundings. We received recurring updates and pictures. Thank you Ayla!”
“Cheylee is amazing! HIGHLY recommend for any dog/house sitting needs. She is so sweet and made sure to send my husband and I plenty of pictures and updates while we were away on vacation. Our dogs had so much fun with Cheylee. We’re excited to have her stay and take care of our babies again!”
About: I’m a former veterinary technician, have cared for a wide range of animals since I was a kid. I know some first aid and have experience with basic grooming(bathing, brushing, nail trimming). Your furry friend will be well cared for when under my care. Currently a stay at home mom, just taking care of my baby and my own animals so have lots of extra time to help care for your dog! I treat every pet as I would treat my own animals. They are like family and will be loved on and cared for during our time together.
“Page was amazing. This is the 1st time we ever left our pup alone. She kept in constant contact and sent many pictures. I would definitely have her sit for Gunny again. Highly recommend Page .”
“Ciara was super awesome with Cleo, she was very thorough with her questions and getting to know everything she needed to know to give Cleo the care she needed. She communicated with us throughout her entire stay, took cleo on walks, cuddled with her at night and just made her feel as safe and comfortable as possible while we were gone. Not to mention keeping our home in immaculate shape. I would 1000% recommend her and will definitely be going to her for all of our dog sitting needs in the future.”
“Brandon was great. He was well prepared for the meet n greet, showed up on time for the house and pet sitting (which was a week), sent photos with updates each day, got along great with all 3 pups including one that gets anxious around strangers, and left the house/linens/yard looking better than when we left. Highly recommend him and his wife.”
“Kimberly was great with Blair and we hope to have her over with our pup in the future! Very responsive, respectful of our home, and we received frequent updates during the stay!”
“We cannot thank Logan enough for the exceptional care she provided for our 12-year-old puppy, Murph, while we were away. From the very beginning, Logan was professional and attentive, ensuring that all of Murph's needs were met. What truly stood out was the regular updates and adorable photos she sent us during our trip. It brought us so much comfort to see Murph happy and well-cared for, and it made our vacation even more enjoyable knowing he was in such good hands. Logan’s genuine love for animals is evident, and we are so grateful for her dedication. We will definitely be reaching out to her for all our future trips, regardless of their length. Highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a caring and responsible dog sitter! Thank you again, Logan!”
“Macy took great care of my pups! I always amiss them when we leave and Macy sent pics and kept me posted. Thank you Macy!”
“Cielo did a very nice job with our Maya. Maya can be a little stinker with new people, but Cielo handled her with kindness and good sense. Before you knew it, they were out running together and cuddling up at home. Cielo left our home in perfect order and we came home to a happy dog.”
“Joyce was excellent with our little girl that is 15 years old. Joyce was very communicative with me and very friendly. I would definitely hire her again.”
“Kristin just finished watching our fur baby for a week and we are so pleased with how attentive she was to our pup. She really cared about his well-being and she knew it was going to be hard for us to be away from him and him to be away from us. Our pup has a neurological disease and Kristin gave him the extra love and attention that he needed.I really am so happy that Kristin was our sitter. In addition, she also left the house neat and clean which was nice to come home to. We would absolutely use her again!”
About: What sets me apart from other dog sitters is that I’ve truly never known life without a dog. I’ve grown up with Labrador Retrievers and have experience with both purebreds and rescues, each with their own personalities and needs. From high-energy pups to older dogs who just want company, I know how to provide the right kind of care, structure, and love. I understand canine body language, I’m comfortable with a variety of temperaments, and I treat every dog like they’re part of my own pack. I’m currently a flight student and fly in the mornings from 8:30-11:30. I am potentially seeking out other work opportunities but my schedule is wide open currently! When providing in-home visits or walks, I focus on keeping your pet comfortable, happy, and on their normal routine. I make sure they’re fed, have fresh water, and get plenty of love and attention—whether that’s playtime, cuddles, or just some quiet company. For walks, I prioritize safety and fun, tailoring each outing to your dog’s energy level. And if your pup needs a little extra exercise, I’m happy to take them on a run! I treat your home with care and always send updates, so you can feel confident your pet is in good hands.
About: 🐾 Your Pet's Best Pal! 🐾 With 29+ years of experience and a passion for pooches of all breeds, ages and sizes, I focus on reinforcing obedience and providing a fun, trusted, and loving environment for your fur babies. Leave your worries behind and let's create pawsitive experiences together! Pet care seamlessly integrates into my work-from-home schedule. With a remote setup, I prioritize your pup's well-being by incorporating regular playtime, pet snuggles, and even training sessions throughout the day. Your furry companion's needs always come first! In my home, furry guests enjoy a fenced yard and individual rooms for those with special needs. For client's homes, I adapt to accommodate various requests, ensuring a comfortable and tailored experience for every pet in my care.
“Nicole was outstanding! Throughout our entire time away, she was very communicative letting us know how our pets were doing. She even took our trash bins out on trash day! Our dog immediately took to her on her meet and greet and by the looks of the pictures she sent us, he didn’t leave her alone when she was here. We will be using Nicole again!”
“I recently had the pleasure of using Cooper as our pet sitter, and he did a fantastic job taking care of our Vizsla, Rip. Cooper followed all of our instructions perfectly, including administering Rip's insulin injections, which was very important to us. Rip warmed up to him quickly, which speaks volumes about Cooper's gentle and caring nature. He's a well-mannered, responsible young man, and I completely trust him with both my dog and my home. I'll definitely be using Cooper's services again and highly recommend him to anyone in need of a trustworthy pet sitter!”
“Kalin did a great job with our babies! She was communicative the whole time with lots of comments and photos showing us what they were doing during the day. She was even able to get daily medicine into a less-than-cooperative cat. We would love to book Kalin the next time our babies need care.”
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes and ages, from energetic puppies to gentle seniors. I’m also great with cats! Compassionate, dependable, and always on time. Right now, my schedule is fully open, which means I can be flexible and available whenever needed. Pet care easily fits into my daily routine! I always treat each home and pet with the utmost respect and care. I follow routines closely, ensure clean, safe environments, and prioritize trust and comfort.
