“Lauren took excellent care of our energetic dog. She was patient with our detailed instructions and kept in good touch while we were gone. We will definitely book her again in the future.”
“Ash was very patient and tender with my very fearful, timid chihuahua. Ash clearly has experience with different behavioral presentations in dogs and was very communicative! Would definitely book again!”
“Kristin was a wonderful cat sitter who took great care of my two kitties while I was away. She was conscientious and communicative, sending updates and photos keeping me well informed of everything happening back home. Highly recommended!”
About: I have lived with dogs my whole life and been routinely called upon to take care of neighbor dogs. I have most experience with Australian shepherds and doodles. Very comfortable bringing dogs to the woods and excited to form unique relationships with new dogs! I am available when I am available. I would never take on a dog client unless I am ready to devote myself as needed to their care and attention. When caring for dogs in a client's home I bring leave-no-trace ethics, leaving things always as I found them. I am a guest on this earth.
“Alex stayed with our pups again, but this time for a whole week. When I returned, the pups were healthy and the house looked great. Alex even washed the sheets! Great communication, photo updates, and a relaxed vibe. Thanks, Alex!!”
“Cynthia was WONDERFUL with my two cats while we were away. One cat is a kitten who wants to play a lot, and the other is an older cat who needs lots of medicine twice daily. In addition to providing great care and company for both of them, she's communicative with updates, questions and pictures. I will definitely be calling her again if and when I travel next!”
“Priya was able to stay at our place for the week we were away and give Skipper some companionship, exercise and care. Hoping she is available next time we travel and need her help!”
“I chose Matt because I had read his reviews and he lived up to the reputation! I think dogs are a good judge of character and she warmed up to him immediately upon his first visit to meet her. I had plans to leave the country and needed to feel like my pup was in good hands and well cared for. She has some special needs and Matt made sure she received the care she required. I loved the updates, pictures and videos Matt sent, all which helped me know she was happy and healthy. She even is jumping on people less! He somehow taught her to stop this annoying behavior and I need to find out how he did this!! I definitely would recommend him!”
“Amanda D. is a dog whisperer par excellence, attentive, thoughtful, very professional. At our Meet & Greet, she cautiously approached our howling, skittish dog, calmly waited at his level for him to settle down and offered soft words of praise when he did. In no time at all, he had gone for a ride, explored a new field with lots of great smells, played quietly in the heat and cuddled with her on the couch. Thank you, Amanda.”
“Sailor did a great job house sitting for my cat! They were very flexible and a good communicator. My cat loved Sailor and seemed to be in good hands.”
“Rick was very personable and great with our animals! He was thorough throughout the whole pet sitting experience and we would definitely book with him again!”
“Bena was such a gem. She took great care of our very particular dog for the whole weekend we were away. Our dog has separation issues and usually when we come back from trips he can be pretty anxious, but after his weekend with Bena he was calm, cuddly, and relaxed - almost like he liked her more than us! Bena was responsive and compassionate the whole weekend. I would recommend her in a heartbeat to anybody!”
“Anuhea is absolutely fantastic. They were so easy to work with and very flexible. Our dogs has a great time and we're well cared for. Also, the house was spotless!”
“Emma took great care of Fox and Bear! She was very on top of giving Bear his post surgery meds. She played nicely with both pups and gave them lots of snuggles. Everything in our home was meticulously cared for as well. Thanks Emma!”
About: Lifelong dog lover skilled with reactive, anxious dogs and puppies—experienced in training, stimulation, and gentle, attentive care. I am a dog mom myself! My Dogs name is Eggy who is a 2 year old rescue with a love of balls and social anxiety. I am currently in graduate school working towards my masters in clinical social work. With this, I have ample time to spend with furry friends. Entering someone’s home is an honor and a privilege, especially when you are in-trusted with the care and safety of a pet. With this I try to respect the expectations of every pet parent and every pet. I work to leave a home as I found it, be mindful of the needs of each pet, and express my gratitude.
“Olivia is awesome!! Responsible, reliable, and amazing communication. After a two-week trip (with no worries because we got pics and updates every day) we came home to a happy pup and a perfect house. We highly recommend Olivia for pet- and house sitting!”
“Both my pup and I had such a great experience with Amed. Such a lovely and dependable person who is clearly a dog whisper! My anxious dog was not fussed at all when we returned. I think he enjoyed his experience very much and we felt like he was well cared for during our absence! Thank you so very much!!”
“Lucie did such an amazing job house-sitting and watching my dog. She provided several updates (texts and photos), asked clarifying questions when needed, and seemed to go the extra mile to take care of my baby. I needed a last-minute sitter and was *so* lucky to have found someone this responsible. I will definitely ask Lucie to watch my dog in the future!”
“It was so nice to know that Rosie and our home were in capable and caring hands while we were away on vacation. Rosie, our home, and our gardens were in great shape when we returned. We'll definitely be looking to Molly again next time we need a dogsitter!”
“Celeste was great with our crazy boy. They went on walks and had a lot of snuggling time. Everything I was hoping for. It was so nice to come home to a clean house and a happy dog!! Thank you!”

Jeremy B.
“My dogs are one of the most important parts of my life. I would only entrust them with someone who would provide the same love and care that I would; Jeremy is that person. When they hear Jeremy's name, they run to the window, waiting for him to arrive. He treats them like family. He plays with them, walks them, talks to them, lays on the ground with them and even brushes their teeth . . . . . he connects with them. I don't have to worry about them when they're with Jeremy.”
