“This is the second time we had Danette sit with our dog. She is wonderful! She gave us daily updates and was very patient with our shy dog. We recommend her highly and hope she is available the next time we need a puppy sitter!”
“Great experience with Allegra. She took excellent care of my pups and kept the house spotless. The dogs were in such a good mood when I returned, which tells me everything I need to know. Will definitely book again!”
“Grace was great! She was responsive, sent videos and pictures, and made me feel comfortable. My dog got sick before we left town and she was sensitive and kind and gave extra attention. We will have her again the next time we go out of town.”
“Mark took such great care of our dog! She was completely happy when we came home and our house was clean, packages and garbage cans brought in. We also had a few changes and he was so flexible. Will definitely be using him again!”
“Jordyn was wonderful with Sally. She kept us up to date on how Sally was doing and took her out often, even in this cold weather. She was very flexible with scheduling and on time. Sally is a big fan! We will definitely us Jordyn again. Thank you Jordyn!”
“Michele did a great job watching our Livia while we were in CA. We were very comfortable knowing she was well taken care of. Michele took Livia for a morning walk daily and kept us updated with pictures and notes. She is highly recommended and we wouldn't hesitate to use her again.”
About: I have had Pers my whole life, and I am a very well - versed person when it comes to dogs. I constantly watch people’s dogs / walk them when needed. Especially during summertimes. I am good with taking care of older dogs and walking at their pace. I am currently home from school for the summertime, I am taking classes in the meantime but I love to spend time with nature. Dogsitting fits into my schedule because I like to get up early and take care of my priorities and I count animals as one of them I value pets the same way, if not more, to other people. I see pets as another me, and I wouldn’t want anything to happen to them because i set such a high value for them. I think pets are one of the best things in our lives, and I wouldn’t want anything to harm that.
“Joseph was great with our dogs, they were in a great mood when we got home! Good communicator and house sitter. He’s stayed with our dogs twice now and we will definitely book him again!”
“Becca was wonderful and took care of everything. She knew exactly how to put my nervous little chihuahua at ease. By the end of the week she was his best friend. She sent me pictures and updates which I really appreciated. I highly recommend her.”
“Such a wonderful experience with Victoria. We have a born blind dog and a senior pup and she was so understanding. We feel very comfortable with Victoria house/pup sitting for multiple days in a row. Very thankful we have Victoria in our pups lives!”
“Judith and her daughter Cynthia did a fantastic job caring for my cat Bunky and my house. She stayed here with him for 11 days while I was traveling and he was very happy with her company. She let him get to know her at his own pace and provided extra care for him as he is blind. I'd recommend Judith and Cynthia to anyone needing pet care, and I'll definitely ask them back to take care of him the next time I travel.”
“My 15 month old husky/German shepherd mix got along well with Aury. Aury took her for a couple of walks and kept her company while I was gone...my dog has severe separation anxiety but Aury handled her well. Would use her service again.”
“Megan is amazing!!! She took care of my 2 dachshunds! She went above and beyond for me! I contacted her 6 months ago about watching my dogs for my wedding day. She brought my dogs to my wedding for me! She took amazing care of both my dogs and sent so many pictures! I would highly suggest her as a dog sitter! Our pups were so taken care of. Thank you Megan!”

My dog is terrified of thunderstorms and I reached out to Becca to provide company for him during a potential storm. She did a great job with my dog and made sure he was comfortable. I would definitely use Becca again in the future and recommend her to anyone else.
