4. Patrick W.


“Patrick did an amazing job pet sitting our two-year-old Rhodesian Ridgeback while we were away! He remembered all the details about our dog training and feeding routines, helped with several deliveries while we were away, and our house looked exactly the same as it did when we left! We really appreciate his help so our RR could stay in his usual surroundings while we were away, highly recommend Patrick!”


5. Kathryn C.

“Kathryn went above and beyond taking care of ALL our animals. We received pictures and updates daily. Our pets always looked so relaxed and peaceful in all the pictures. We had a stress free vacation knowing all our babies were well taken care of. We highly recommend Kathryn and will definitely use her again in the future.”

She treats every dog like her own.”

“Ethel is incredibly kind and such a dog lover! I really appreciated Ethel’s communication and care for my new dog, Kylo. My boy was adopted about a week ago and has a good amount of separation anxiety. He has broken out of 2 crates, 3 times😅 Ethel was available to house sit during the morning/early afternoon while I needed to be out of the house for work. I felt very comfortable leaving Kylo in her care. I would highly recommend Ethel’s services!”

“Lauryn is fantastic! She just stayed with my baby for the second time for the weekend. They love her and it feels so good knowing Ginger is happy at him instead of boarding! I’ll have her every time I go away !”


15. Leanette E.
About: I grew up with dogs and for the past 4 years I’ve been a cat mom. I have experience with dogs, cats, and some reptiles. I’m an animal lover so it’s easy for me to adjust to new pets 😊 I’m currently a full time student and employed part time. I always have Sundays open but I can try to work around my schedule for your fur babies! I do not have a fence which is why I would not mind being in a client’s home. I would also love for your pet to feel comfortable where they know.




16. Megan S.

“If I could leave more than 5 stars I would. Megan stayed at our house for the weekend of our wedding and was amazing! We had so much going on all weekend and we hate leaving our pups behind, but Megan made it feel like we we're right at home with them the entire time. She sent multiple pictures throughout the weekend with daily updates, not to mention when we got home she made the house cleaner than when she arrived. We will definitely use her again when the time comes!”


17. Kaitlyn D.

“Everything went great!! Highly recommend Kaitlyn to anyone in need of a caring trustworthy sitter.”


18. Mark K.
“Mark is a very loving pet owner. He has taken awesome care of his pets. Whether it be his cat or his dog. His dog was walked a few times every day and enjoyed the exercise. Mark would be excellent as a dog walker or pet sitter.”


19. Myriah D.
“Myriah would be a great person for taking care of pets. She comes over my house and take care of my dog when I am not able to at the particular time. She has a pet of her own.”
