“Brittany took care of our aging dog (and itinerant cat) for a week while staying a our house in November, 2021. She was wonderful - very responsible and conscientious. Sent daily updates, pix and was really nice to work with. House looked great when we got home. We would be happy to have her sit anytime!”

“Audrey was great with our dogs, they loved her hanging out and playing with them. The check in pictures put me at ease they were in good hands. Will book again with Audrey.”

“Asis was so great with our pups! She was a great communicator and sent photos/videos while we were away which is always appreciated. We really appreciate the great care she gave our boys and will definitely be using her services again.”

“Ebony did a great job watching my 11 mo. old puppy over the weekend. She stayed and left the house spotless. She also communicated very well when my puppy had an issue with her harness (puppy was nervous about someone new) and was open about what was going on. Puppy was in good hands and I could relax on vacation. I would highly recommend using Ebony for an overnight stay!”

“I booked Lori on short notice and so glad I did. She was super attentive to my dog and cat, communicated well with me throughout my travel, and paid careful attention to making them comfortable with her. Already have her booked for my next trip!”

“Octavia was the perfect dog sitter for my mini poodle. I was nervous to leave him for the long weekend, and she provided reassuring updates and photos to let me know my little dude was doing great and having the best time with her. I would highly recommend her to anyone!”

“Angie was AMAZING with my dogs the week that she dog sat for them in my home. She sent regular updates and photos, asked thoughtful questions, and was kind and engaged every step of the way. She handled my older dog’s “special needs” like a champion and helped my nervous golden have a ton of fun. She left our home in better shape than it was when we left.

About: Animals have been a part of my life since I was nine years old — and what started as a passion turned into a career. I currently work at an animal hospital as an Animal Care Team Lead, where I’m trusted daily with the safety, health, and well-being of pets of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. From high-energy working breeds to senior dogs who need extra patience, to anxious pups who require calm leadership — I’ve handled it all. My background in both animal daycare and veterinary settings means I’m confident managing group play and behavioral quirks. Your pet won’t just get supervision — they’ll get structured care, enrichment, exercise, and genuine affection. I understand that leaving your pet with someone is a big deal, and I take that trust seriously. Clear communication, updates, and a safe environment are my top priorities. Whether your dog needs playtime, structure, or just a steady, experienced presence — I’m here to provide professional care with a personal touch. I work full-time at an animal hospital, which means I’m around animals every day and very comfortable managing different care routines. My consistent days off are Wednesday, Friday, and Saturday, which allows me extended availability for drop-ins, walks, and overnight care. However, I am still available to perform any service every day of the week as long as it's to your furry friends needs. That said, I’m still highly flexible outside of those days. I’m available before and after work for visits, and I do my best to accommodate scheduling needs whenever possible. If you’re unsure about a date or time, feel free to reach out — I’m happy to work with you! Your pet’s safety is always my top priority. Working full-time at an animal hospital has trained me to pay close attention to behavior, body language, and early signs of stress or illness. I take proactive steps to ensure every pet in my care feels secure, comfortable, and respected. I follow each pet’s routine closely — feeding schedules, medication instructions (No injections), exercise needs, and any household rules you have in place. I understand how important consistency is, especially for cats and dogs who thrive on structure. Trust means everything to me. I provide regular updates and photos so you can feel connected and reassured while you’re away. When your pet is with me, they’re treated like family — with patience, attentiveness, and genuine care.
“Devaney is wonderful! She stayed with our 17 year old Havanese for 10 days. He is very skittish and doesn't like anyone but us. She worked with him and got him to relate to her. He has accidents in the house and she cleaned up. When we returned the house was in wonderful shape. She sent pictures and updates every day. I highly recommend her! And she has a great personality and sense of humor!”

“Mont’e was absolutely amazing! He provided excellent care for my cat and dog while house sitting. I was pretty nervous to leave town and Mont’e was super kind and professional. He updated me regularly, took my dog on walks, and even took her to his family’s Christmas Eve celebration (after asking of course) because I was worried about her having separation anxiety! Mont’e treated my pets as if they were his own and when I came back they were both super calm and relaxed because of the great care provided. Mont’e was also super respectful of my home and left it very neat and tidy! Highly recommend Mont’e for all pet sitting needs, I’ll definitely be asking him to come back!”
