“We had a great experience with Rachel staying in our home with our dogs. We booked her a few weeks ahead of time and she was quick to coordinate our meet and greet. Even despite the gap in time between the M&G and the start of the sit, she reached out the day before to confirm her arrival plan. We really appreciated knowing that she was on top of things! Our dogs loved her and looked so happy in the photos Rachel sent. We appreciated her regular communications and that she treated our home like her own. We would definitely use her again!”

Elizabeth R.

“Aidan was great! I left my anxious hound dog, Dean, in his care over a long weekend. He was very responsive, and proactive about sending updates with adorable pictures. Dean does not warm up to everyone, but was so sad when Aidan left and was stuck with me again. I'll be using him again in the future.”

“Danielle was amazing. She sent a ton of photos and kept me updated throughout the stay. My dogs loved snuggling with her and were so happy and well cared for. Will definitely use her again!”

Heather F.

“Larry and I LOVE Emily!!!! I have booked a few times and she has taken such great care of Larry. Most recently I was over seas and Larry needed treatment at the vet. No questions asked, she sprung into gear to get him the best treatment possible. She is Larry's and my life saver.”

Brian J.

“Rachel was fantastic with our pets!! She sent numerous pics and was always extremely communicative of her schedule. We’ll definitely be using her again!”

David C.

“Jora was great! Koda is a high energy dog and needs a good amount of physical and mental stimulation to keep her from getting into mischief. When I got home, she was completely relaxed almost like I never left. The house looked like it did when I left for my trip and I got great updates throughout the weekend from Jora on how it was going. I would highly recommend her and will definitely be using her again.”

Gillian C.

“Liz is FANTASTIC! She made my pup so happy while I was away for a week that he is probably sad that I came home! She is reliable, communicative, friendly, and LOVES animals. I hope to have Liz doggy-sit for me again :)”

About: I’ve been an animal lover for as long as I can remember.. Growing up with everything from cats and dogs to rabbits, spiders, ferrets and even the occasional rescue critter. Caring for animals has always come naturally to me, and I truly feel at home when I’m surrounded by furry friends. I absolutely adore cats! Their quirky personalities & quiet cuddles melt my heart & I love the energy & companionship dogs bring. Whether it’s playtime, long walks, or just keeping your pet company while you’re away, I treat every animal with the same love & care I give my own. My schedule has its quirks, but it works in your pet’s favor! Tuesdays and Thursdays are actually my most flexible days, perfect for morning and evening walks or extended hangouts with your furry companion. As a full-time grad student and part-time social worker, my hours can be a little unpredictable but I always make time for what matters. Even with a busy calendar, caring for animals is a priority I never push aside. Whether it’s a midday drop-in or a sunset stroll, I’m happy to fit in the love and attention your pet deserves. Safety, trust, and a calm environment are at the heart of the care I provide. Whether I’m coming to your home for a walk, a cuddle session, or staying for an overnight house sit, I treat your space and your pets with the utmost respect and care. I know how important it is to feel confident leaving your furry family member in someone else’s hands, and I take that responsibility seriously. I follow any routines you’ve set, keep their environment clean and peaceful, and make sure your pet feels comfortable, safe, and loved at all times. Whether it’s daily check-ins, long walks, or overnight companionship, I show up with patience, attention, and genuine care.

About: I grew up with dogs and have always loved animals! I have lots of experience with long term pet sitting, having watched professors’ pets for 1+ months while I was earning my undergraduate degree. I also have experience caring for my parents’ 16.5 year old husky mix as well as other older dogs with advanced needs. I have my own dog, Bonnie, a 15 lb chihuahua mix who has traveled with me to 6 National Parks! I’ll am currently in school but have lots of afternoon and weekend availability! I will be able to take out your pet if you’re working late, or care for them all weekend if you’re going on a trip! I would prefer to watch dogs at your home if needed for overnight stays. I take my dog out every 3 hours as much as possible and can do the same for your dog. I will also make sure they always have water and that I am home at the appropriate times to feed them their meals

“Catherine was wonderful while I was out of town for a work trip. She communicated often and sent pictures, it was so reassuring! Will definitely use her again.”

“Cindy has been absolutely wonderful to work with! She has such a loving and positive attitude towards animals. Within the first 5 minutes of meeting my sweet fur babies she was on the floor with them ready to give them all the love. She was communicative, kind, and extremely attentive. 10/10 will work with her again! Thank you Cindy!”
