“Sam takes grwat care of our dogs. She is great and communicating and completely reliable. Our three poodles just adore Sam. Leaving our dogs would be much more challenging if we had not found Sam to help us out.”
“One of the absolute best pet sitters we've used to date! Dana will definitely be one i rebook for sure. She was so great with all my cats, even giving medication to one of our cats, which isn't an easy task! Above and beyond! Do not hesitate to book with her!”
“Nikki took great care of our boys while we were gone for a week. We did a combination of house sitting and nightly drop ins depending on the day. Her flexibility to work with this was super helpful and I really appreciate how responsive and friendly she is. I have 2 male Rottweilers and although they’re big goofballs, they can be intimidating and I was so happy to see how confident she was interacting with them. It gave me a lot of peace of mind leaving my boys in her care. I genuinely hope she enjoyed our dogs and was comfortable in our home because I definitely would use her again if she will have us! Thanks so much Nikki!!”
“Avery was so accommodating with a short-notice request to watch our two large dogs. She was very communicative and ensured that she knew of any special requests based on each dog’s needs. Avery was patient and understanding with our energetic, jumping Lab when she arrived. We would recommend Avery without hesitation!!”
“Awesome super there for ya! Rises to occasion… professional! Cats liked him! Thank you would recommend! But hopefully he won’t get too busy for us haha! ;) very good trip thanks to Jacob’s care for our cats”
“Erin was a great sitter for Nova! She was very responsive and easy to work with, and was happy to provide extra support when needed! Definitely will book with her again 😊🐾”

About: What sets me apart as a house and pet sitter is my hands-on experience with a wide range of pets, from playful puppies to senior animals needing extra care. I’m confident with administering medications, following special diets, and keeping up with training routines. I treat every home and pet as if they were my own—clean, safe, and full of love. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, or just companionship, I adapt to each pet’s unique needs to make sure they’re happy and stress-free while you’re away. I am currently working a part-time job so I will have plenty of time to take care of your pups! I am more free on weekends and afternoons but also extremely flexible! I have a pet-friendly apartment, no yard, but very close to parks and easy access to outdoors! I am completely comfortable and willing to go to your home to watch your pets if it is preferred.
About: Hi! I’ve grown up in a home full of animals, so being around pets has always been second nature to me. Dogs hold a special place in my heart—I truly love spending time with them, especially out in nature where they can explore and enjoy themselves. I currently work part time at starbucks, so my schedule is pretty open. I’m available all days of the week mostly later in the day, I have a very flexible schedule, just message and we can talk about setting up a good time! I love walking dogs, playing catch with them as well running around, I will teach your dogs like my own! And make sure they have the absolute best care and fun!
“Love love love Kaitlyn!! She was so helpful, cooperative, and reliable + she made sure every need for our cats were met while we were gone over the holidays. 110% recommend and we will absolutely be booking again!”
About: I love all animals and have spent a lot of time learning how to adapt to the different needs of each animal that I watch. I am currently working full time so I can watch your animal in the mornings and afternoons - and can leave work on my lunch to take them out if needed! Weekends are typically completely free, so I can be there for them all day! When I am in a client's home, I respect how they want their animals to be taken care of! I want to make sure that their animal is taken care of in their comfort and am careful to follow all of the directions that are given to me to ensure that their pet is safe. It takes a lot of trust to leave your animal with someone and I want to make sure that I can create that safe environment!
About: I’ve loved dogs my whole life and have grown up caring for them, from playful puppies to sweet seniors. I’m patient, attentive, and treat every dog like they’re my own. I’m currently a part time nail tech and want to fill my time doing something I love. And if I can fill my spare time by spending it with animals I think my life would be complete. In a client’s home, I follow their usual routines for feeding, walks, and play to keep pets happy and stress-free. Either way, I give each pet my full attention and care as if they were my own.
“Laura was amazing with our two cats and six chickens! She was extremely thoughtful and caring. I had a family emergency and Laura helped make a super stressful situation a little less stressful. Thank you, Laura 💕”
About: I've had dogs most of my life. I have experience with senior dogs & I volunteer at my local Humane Society. They hold such a special place in our hearts, it's the least I can do to make sure they are happy & safe. I am available most days during the week & weekends. I can do early mornings, late nights, & everything in-between. I am used to juggling life & pets. I love to play with them, let them out to go to the bathroom & crate them back up (if needed). Make sure they have food, water, & is comfortable.
About: I grew up in a family with a variety of animals-cats, dogs, and chickens. I love playing and snuggling with all animals. We love animals! I’m currently a stay at home mom, so I have plenty of time to love on and play with your fur babies. My two kids are full of energy that they love to share with animals. I live in a quiet, animal friendly neighborhood. I have two kids that absolutely love playing with animals and will keep your fur babies active and happy.
About: I will care for your pets as if they were my own. I've cared for a very elderly dog as well as young puppis and everything in between. I have done a lot of training with all of my dogs. My husband and I are both home all day long, so I am available to watch your dogs while my husband can tend to my dogs. I can coordinate my daily life around pet sitting. I will keep your dog/cat safe while they are in my care! I will follow all your instructions for walking and potty breaks. I will never let them be unattended.

“Rachael is so great with dogs! I have a puppy pomsky that she took care of at her home, and it was obvious that she was experienced with dogs and loved being able to spend time with my puppy. I always worry a little bit about having someone with kids take care of my dog, especially because mine is still so young, but by the time she finished watching my dog, they seemed to be best friends! I’ll definitely be having her watch my dog again. 12/10!”
Patricia H.
