“Erin was wonderful. She went above and beyond in every way, kept us informed, and took great care of the house. Our puppy was 6 months at the time of the vacation, and Erin did great with all of them. I am sure they will all be so happy to see her again!”

“Emma stayed with my cat Patrick for a week while I was in another state for work. Patrick needs some special attention and takes daily medication. She did a great job making sure he was taking care of and comfortable! Additionally, she communicated with me well and made sure to send me some pictures every day!”


“Kaitlin is phenomenal! She took excellent care of our fur babies while we were traveling. She followed instructions and reached out with extra considerations. We felt secure knowing our pups (and home) were in good hands. We would absolutely recommend her to others.”

“Karrie was fantastic! She stayed in our home, which helped our dogs feel comfortable and relaxed right away. She kept them on their usual routine, so we never had to worry while we were away. She was also a wonderful house guest and even washed dishes and bedding before she left. We couldn't have asked for better care and will definitely be booking with her again!”


“Kate was amazing!! She checked in often and sent photos of my dogs daily! Dolly is usually timid of people but she was really comfortable with Kate! She stayed at my home and was with them majority of the time! They had constant care and attention. When I returned she started laundry for the bedding and towels, and left everything spotless! It doesn’t even look like she was here which is such a blessing to come back to a clean home! I would recommend to anyone looking for a sitter!”

“Lilly was so great! She kept me updated with photos and stayed responsive throughout the stay. She left my home as she found it and even took the trash out! There was a crazy storm during her stay and she assured me the pups were safe and well cared for. Would love to use Lilly again!”

“Mary was fantastic! Our dog, Ella, got plenty of walks and play. Our home was well kept, mail was stacked neatly on the counter and we came home to a calm, happy dog. We would definitely use Mary again!”


“Natalie was wonderful! Everyone loved her and she was so good with Everyone. She kept us update with pictures while we were away and in each picture, Everyone seemed so happy. Will definitely be using Natalie again!”

“Parker watched our 2 dogs and 1 cat at our house while we were out of town, and took great care of them. He provided photos and updates to let us know all was going well. We would happily hire him again. Thanks Parker!”


About: I have always had a love for all kinds of animals. Ive enjoyed watching family and friends pets as well as caring for my own pets in my apartment. I'd love to get to know you and your unique pet and make them feel even more loved and appreciated. I have past background knowledge on pet nutrition,hygiene and behavior traits. I am currently starting school in March to gain my pharmacy technician certification, I would have open availability to provide assistance for you and your pets. I do have a dog with me, her name is Maze. Maze is a rescue, she stays in my room and going on walks multiple times a day as well as dog parks, she would love to have a friend. Maze eats 2 times a day once in the morning and once in the evening with a snack (can of tuna/shredded chicken) in the afternoon. Maze talks walks in a harness to provide safely,we do have an extra! I have cats as well, the are allowed to freely roam around with little latches that keep bedroom doors open just enough for them to go in and out, they are also fed twice a day with wet food and have dry kibble out for free feeding through the day, since they have smaller stomachs they eat more frequently, howver the dry food is only filled once it runs out completely, the cats also have a running water fountain as well as other water bowls on elevated surfaces. Their are plenty of pet beds,toys and treats, if their are any allergies please let me know!
“Abby did a wonderful job watching our giant pup. She was a life saver for us as we needed someone the the same day to look after him. Grateful she was so willing to come on such a short notice. Will definitely use her in the future.”
“Jennifer took care of our 2 dogs and home for a few days - she did a fantastic job! She communicates regularly with pictures and information which is super helpful and comforting while being away. We highly recommend Jennifer!”

“Karen took good care of our babies. We received daily pics and she was responsive to all messages. We returned home to happy fur babies and the house was as clean as we left it.”

“Lulu was such a great dog sitter who went above and beyond! She sent thorough updates and photos and I felt confident my babies were in good hands. I will absolutely book with her again!”


“This was our first housesitting experience, and Erika was great! She was an excellent communicator before, during, and after. Bonus: she left the house in great shape as well. Thanks Erika!!”

“Samantha was very quick to respond, easy to work with, and understood the care needs for our pups. She sent a few pictures and updates during her stay, we would definitely book her again!”

“Paola was so attentive to our beloved Kona. She went above and beyond day after day, very consistent with check-in and photos, so we could see our dog as she even offered to clean up around the house a little bit and do anything that needed done while we were away of all of the rovers, I’ve tried this has without a doubt been our best experience. Quit looking for other rovers just go ahead and book Paola with confidence.”

Brooklyn came right in and took charge, and Tufa took to her very quickly. She didn't get a ton of acclimation time or instruction due to short notice for care, and my crazy busy day. I was impressed with how at ease she was with the situation and that made it so much easier for me. Brooklyn definitely cares about providing top notch care for your pets, I highly recommend her and hope to have her care for Tufa again.

Karrie was absolutely wonderful! She came by for meet and greets for our big guy before the week we were gone and it really helped all the dogs become familiar with her. She sent photos often and kept me updated on how they were doing daily. We will definitely be using her again!

Paola was amazing with my 2 dogs! She sent me updates and pictures throughout each day I was gone and it gave me such peace of mind knowing my girls were being taken of very well. Paola is kind, reliable and trustworthy and I will definitely use her in the future.

Laurie was great! We needed a last minute sitter and Laurie jumped in to help out. She took great care of our pups and house. You could tell in the pics that they were relaxed and having fun. We have 3 dogs, which can be a lot. One is highly anxious but warmed up to Laurie the first day. She have very thoughtful and excellent questions about the dogs and housebefore we left and as needed during her stay. I couldn't have been happier and more comfortable. We will definitely be asking Laurie to sit for us again!
