“I will be happy to book Alexis again. She is very reliable and takes great care of our cat with lots of updates and great communication. We will travel more now that we know Alexis!”

“Kylee is awesome!! She is super caring and communicative! My animals loved her! Unfortunately she got sick during the stay so we had to finish the stay with someone else. I’ll definitely be booking with Kylee again in the future! She provided excellent care!”

“Peggy & Mathew were great! They sent me photos during Milo’s stay and he had ALOT of fun. Milo came home and went straight to sleep. I was happy he was able to stay with a loving family for the dayz”

About: I've had dogs, cats, and horses my entire life and have played a key role in helping my family care for them. Because of my experience and love for them, other family, friends, and coworkers have relied on me to watch and care for their pets on many occasions. I work remotely, so most days, I can be very flexible with checking in on pets or taking them for walks. I prefer weekdays between 8 a.m & 8 p.m. I am happy to follow any instructions provided to care for your pet in your home and/or on walks so that I can provide your pet the best care possible.
“Christiana went above and beyond caring for our 15 yo Havanese. She was tasked with caring for an elderly dog with a slew of meds and strict feeding regimen. Not to mention giving my high anxiety dog a ton of attention. She stayed at our house, and when we got back, our house was cleaner than when we left it. She sent me updates daily and even left us a family gift. She made leaving town easier, and because of her I was able enjoy a nice family vacation with our college boys. I will be booking her again! Thank you Christiana!”

“Hannah did a fantastic job watching my dog and cat and house sitting for two nights. She was very conscientious of my pets’ needs and took great care of them. I will definitely use her services again and highly recommend her.”

“What a pleasant surprise. Needed a pet sitter and Hannah came through with flying colors. Was quick to communicate, animals were happy, and house was very well maintained. Cannot say enough good things about Hannah. Will definitely be booking again.”


“Kathleen is a gem!! She stayed at our home for 10 nights with our 2 dogs. She sent pictures each morning and asked questions when she had any. Our home was in tip top shape when we returned and all instructions were followed perfectly. And most importantly our doggies were super happy and relaxed. I think they miss her ❤️ We’ll happily use her again!”

About: For much of my life I have had the pleasure of raising Labs. After an absence of dogs for a few years, I recently helped care for my daughter's Rott/Beagle, and realized I so miss having dogs around. Now that I am settled, I am looking forward to helping with the care of your dogs! Trust that I will take good care of your family pet, either in your home or my own. They can run around in my fenced yard as they like. I will play with them every day. I treat animals with care and attentiveness. When I am at work, I am 8 minutes from home and can be there in a flash. I am caring, attentive and easily reachable should you want to check in. I will send pictures during your time away so you can feel assured that your pet is cared for well. I work at a nearby school and have a flexible schedule. I generally get home early so I am able to feed, exercise and relieve your pet morning and night as well as weekends. If caring for pet(s) in your home, I will respect your space and your house rules. If you are using my home, I have a good amount of room and a comfortable sofa, as well as a fenced yard. If using your home, I will ensure your pet follows the access and boundaries which you set for them. I have years of experience caring for dogs, enjoy playing, running and hanging out with them. I will give them the food and treats that you provide so as to keep their dietary routines on point. Your pets will be happy to see you when you return, happier still that they received excellent care!
“Dani is the best!! She watched our dog at our house for a whole week between Christmas & New Years. She is very reliable and kind! Her communication was great - we received lots of sweet pictures and updates throughout her stay which was such a treat! Our dog immediately took to Dani and they became best friends right away 🥰 It was so nice knowing Winston was in good hands while we were gone. We would absolutely recommend her to take care of your furry loved ones!”

About: I have had experience taking care of animals for over 14 years! I own two dogs and have previously owned my sweet senior dog for 14 years. I love each and every animal like they were my own. I work from home and am able to take lunch when needed. I also am free on the weekends to take care of your animals! I’m familiar with crate training and dogs that are crate trained as well as dogs that aren’t. I will be able to make your dog as comfortable as possible.
“Michele took great care of my two spoiled cats and communicated regularly. It was such a relief to be able to relax on my trip, knowing they were in the hands of a professional. I'm so glad to have her in our lives!”

“Karen did an amazing job as always with watching stormy and cinder. She is very responsive and always keeps us updated with pictures and videos of our fur babies! 100/100 would recommend!”

“Alandra is the real deal, a pet lover for sure. My cat Fitty is a great discerner of personalities and he took to here immediately. Alandra has a great personality, a great communicator and very empathetic for both the client and the pet (you know, the separation anxiety - lol!). She left my house just as I left it. have absolutely no complaints. Thanks again! I will rebook again.”

“Marin was so amazing with our two girls. She was responsive and sent pictures daily. Our two golden-doodles are not old so no special care necessarily but they are very needy. When we got home the house looked perfect and most importantly our two girls were so happy. That tells me she did a good job because sometimes they will act a little mad at us for leaving them. We will def. ask her again if we need to leave Phoebe and Ellie. Thanks Marin you’re amazing!”

Miranda was absolutely amazing! She took wonderful care of our 3 rambunctious boys & sent lots of photos so we could see how they were doing. She had great communication and kept us updated about our dogs every day. I would recommend her to anyone who needs pet/house sitting!
