Whatever I say here will not do justice to how incredible my experience has been with Ariel. She is PHENOMENAL! I have left my kitten Croissant with several cat sitters and boarders in the past, and nothing and no one has come close to giving me the peace of mind I had leaving my cat with her. Ariel looked after her for 9 days, at my place; by the end of the period, my cat felt Ariel was her mum! Croissant looked happy, healthy and well looked after. Also - the fact that Ariel left my place in mint condition and even showed the courtesy to do the laundry etc. was such a nice touch and very much appreciated. It goes without saying Ariel is my go-to sitter moving forward. I would recommend her to anyone in a heartbeat!

We really hate having to leave our pets home when we travel, but Carolyn made it so easy for us. We have a high maintenance anxious doggy and a new kitty, so our house can be a little chaotic but she went above and beyond for them. She sent frequent updates and took care of our house and pets like they were her own! Couldn’t recommend her enough.

Timothy is a 5 Star Pet Sitter! He is 100% responsible and responsive! Our dog is "high energy" and Tim took her our several times a day for walks. He has an obvious heart for dogs and our dog stuck right by his side when he was here. He also left the house in spotless conditiion. We feel very lucky to have had him pet sit for our family!

This is the second time we have used Julie. We were very pleased with the communication while we were gone for two weeks. She advised when there were any issues with the dogs. My two Frenchies absolutely love her. I came home to a clean house. We are looking forward to using Julie again.

About: Animals have always been a big part of my life — I’ve grown up surrounded by all kinds of pets, from rabbits and turtles to macaws, cats, and dogs. Beyond that, I’ve also spent time caring for cattle, which taught me patience, consistency, and respect for animals of all sizes. As an architecture student, I’m detail-oriented, responsible, and observant — qualities that carry over into how I care for every pet I meet. I’m also very active and love spending time outdoors, making me a great fit for energetic dogs who need long walks, playtime, or just a good adventure. What sets me apart is my genuine connection with animals and my ability to adapt to their personalities whether that means keeping up with a playful puppy, giving extra attention to a senior pet, or maintaining routines that keep them comfortable and happy. Pet care is a natural part of my everyday life. Between my studies in architecture and staying active, I make time each day to walk, feed, and play with my own pets two cats and three Maine Coons. Caring for animals keeps me grounded and gives structure to my day. I love starting mornings with walks or playtime and checking in on pets throughout the day to make sure they’re comfortable and happy. On weekends, I’m usually outdoors or spending extra time with my pets, which makes adding client visits or walks fit perfectly into my schedule. Being around animals isn’t a chore for me it’s something that keeps my days joyful, balanced, and full of good energy. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or my client’s, their safety and comfort always come first. I make sure every environment is clean, calm, and free from hazards from securing doors and gates to keeping personal items and food safely out of reach. When I’m in a client’s home, I treat their space with the same respect and care I give my own. I follow all instructions closely, from feeding routines to medication schedules, and keep consistent communication so owners feel confident their pets are well cared for. I also take time to build trust with each animal letting them approach at their own pace, observing their body language, and ensuring they always feel safe and understood. My goal is to create a familiar, stress-free experience that keeps pets happy and owners worry-free.

I can’t recommend Ashley enough! She stayed at my house while I was in Mexico, and I felt completely at ease knowing Goose and Stoli were in such great hands. Ashley truly went above and beyond—she kept the house spotless (even cleaned without being asked!), sent lots of photo updates, and even made the girls the cutest bandannas. Goose and Stoli were clearly happy, loved, and well cared for the entire time. Coming home to spoiled babies was the best feeling. Ashley is awesome, and I would absolutely book her again.

Makenzie took such great care of my baby while I was away for the weekend! I have a reactive dog, so trusting someone with her is hard for me to do, but I never once worried while Makenzie had her! She consistently updated me on her which helped me feel at ease while I was away. My dog LOVED her! I highly recommend Makenzie, my #1 dog sitter from here on out! ❤️
