Kim was great! She took care of our Great Dane puppy while we were on vacation and was great with her and our home. We would love to have her again!

Jason was great - he was kind enough to meet our dogs before his stay and took care of them while we were gone for a few days. Our home was spotless upon our return. Thanks, Jason!

Andrew stayed in our home for a week He took good care of the litter boxes snd was respectful of the space. His very laid back, “chill” demeanor was perfect for our 2 cats. Andrew was very also observant and in tune with their needs and moods. He contacted me on a regular basis and sent me photos of his little charges. We intend to use his services again and highly recommended him to anyone in need of a cat sitter.

Coty is the best. She took great care of our special needs dog. She sent pictures and kept us up to date on how he was doing. She administered eye drops and all of his medication. We were able to relax and feel good that our dog was in great, caring hands.

Alex was great! She was very accommodating on a fairly short notice. She came and met our dog and home ahead of time to get the hang of our place and routine. There was one need for problem solving while away, but she worked with me from afar to work on the best care and plan for my pup. My neighbors talked to her and thought she was great and got along great with our local neighbors and the neighborhood pets on walks with our dog (she is kind of a local celebrity, our dog but Alex too). She gave me daily updates with photos, but nothing overwhelming that I felt distracted on my vacation. Very grateful and looking to book her again.

Our pup was so loved and cared for while we were out of town! We got lots of adorable photos and updates! Right before we left our pup had some diarrhea from a recent vet appointment. Tara made sure to keep us informed of how Piper was feeling better and eating which was such a relief. Would absolutely recommend Tara for dog sitting and we already plan on booking her for our next trip!

Juliette allows us to enjoy our time away without any worry for our three cats. She adores them — we know this because we can see how happy they are in the pictures she sends us and in their “Oh, you’re home” disappointment when she leaves and we return. Juliette also takes good care of our home. She leaves it as good or better than she found it. Cannot say enough about how wonderful she has been for us!

About: I have taken care of family dogs since 2016 and have experience accommodating for special needs as one of my dogs is epileptic. I have also volunteered at animal shelters such as Orphans of the Storm and love to play with all animals to keep them active and social! I work 3-4 12 hour shifts per week so I have around 4 days out of the week to care for your pet! My schedule varies weekly so my free days also vary. My home has a fenced in yard with plenty of room to play! I am also comfortable crating and playing with dogs in your home or taking them in public places for walks!

Sam is fantastic. I have a high energy, big Doberman and he melted around her. She gave him lots of good exercise and cuddles. We came home to a very happy boy and a very clean house! A million stars!

As the owner of 3 dogs, Andrew is very knowledgeable about dogs. He immediately connected with our dog right when he walked in the door. Andrew took her outside and to the basement to get exercise and have some play time. He did a great job! I’d recommend him to any dog-owner for pet sitting.

This was the second time Anna stayed with my dog. Just like the first time, Anna sent me pictures and updates about the walks she took with my dog and just in general how things were going. She left my home spotless and even washed the towels and sheets plus remade the bed. I highly recommend Anna as a pet sitter though it may mean she won’t be available when I need her because she’ll already be booked. She’s the best!!!

Amelia is a wonderful dog sitter. We just returned from a week long trip and Lulu seems super happy. Amelia sent us photos every day along with a little blurb about how things were going. The house is clean, Lulu’s water is fresh and we’re relieved to have had a wonderful, nice and interesting person stay, who’s actually a writer in her spare time.
