“Amanda was amazing! She spent time with our girls and was communicative and prompt. She was flexible and helped us modify our booking when we had to cut our trip short due to illness. We absolutely would book again with Amanda for future needs!”


“Grace did a stellar job taking care of my cat, B, while we were on vacation for a week. She played with her and loved on her during every visit, gave her fresh water, cleaned her cat box, made sure her automatic feeder was working properly, filled the bird feeder outside her window bed, and checked our mail. If there were questions, she asked me. She took great pictures of B. We couldn’t have asked for anything more. I would highly recommend Grace to anyone who needs a pet sitter. We will definitely use her again.”

“Very communicative and helpful. I have two skittish cats and she managed to befriend them - that alone deserves 5 stars! Haha Did a great job, would totally recommend if you need someone to take care of your fur babies.”

“Christina is great with my two boys! They each have their own speeds, one almost 12 and the other 6 years old. They also have their individual quirks, and Christiana is very patient with them.”

“Veronica was great with our dog Ares. She responded quickly to all messages and sent me pictures with each visit. She was very accommodating with my last minute changes I had to make to the drop-in schedule and is very personable.”

“Mary was great with drop in visits for our dogs! Communicated well when needed. The pups were happy when we got home, and in all of the pictures she sent while we were away. Will def book her again!”

About: I’ve had the pleasure of raising my dog from a puppy to now an almost senior dog! He’s been through some challenging health issues, and through it all, I’ve been his caregiver and more. He’s inspired me to return to school to study veterinary medicine and pursue oncology. I’m working towards paying for veterinary assistant program while in school and would love to get more experience in the process! I’m currently taking some courses and have more availability after 11 am on weekdays. I am also available mornings and evenings on weekends! I would say I’m pretty flexible :) I always try my best to keep my dog active, inside and outside of the house. This usually involves going on walks and or doing activities of enrichment at home
“Emily and Ben are FANTASTIC! They took such amazing care of my girls! Even my skittish girl who we’ve only been able to have a couple of close friends watch without issue is absolutely in love with Emily. They went above and beyond to give both girls love and affection, not just a quick drop in to make sure they were fed. It really put my husband and I at ease knowing our girls were in such great care...and all the pics and videos were an added bonus. I would recommend them hands down!”
“Raquel was super sweet and accommodating to Mike, our diabetic cat. She was willing to take on the responsibility of injecting insulin twice daily to Mike and was punctual each day. Very communicative, quickly responding to any and all messages sent, there was no delay at all! She takes caring for animals seriously and won’t let your pet go without!”
“Samantha was wonderful to our 2 cats. Always sent pictures and videos every day and was very good and gaining their trust - they are usually very shy around new people. Would highly recommend her!”

“They took exceptional care of my sweet girl cat, Harley while we were away and gave me complete peace of mind throughout the entire experience. They were reliable, attentive, and clearly have a genuine love for animals.”

“Taylor has been our sitter for a while and she I trustworthy, cares for our pets like they are her own and always give her all while caring for our pets even when we had a tiny emergency. I highly recommend her services to anyone!”


“Elizabeth has watched our cat many times and has always done a great job watching him. He loves her. She is experienced and responsible and I recommend her.”

“Always a great experience with Emma. Our family has used her services multiple times for the past couple years and we are never disappointed or doubt our dogs care while we are away.”

“Camila was great! We reached out last minute to set up a drop in visit for our golden retriever, Carson, and she was super quick to respond and set up a quick meet and greet later that same day. She took great care of our Carson, provided updates and pictures during their walk. We will definitely reach out to Camila next time we need a sitter!”

Excellent service, everyday day providing updates with pictures. Actually, we owe her an apology, because we responded to her messages late—or didn't respond at all, so we’re sorry about that 😅 thank you again for everything, taking your time to be with our doggie and playing with her too.

Andrew is an absolute dream dog walker! He’s communicative, takes fantastic pics of our pups, and executed lots of complex instructions on short notice. He came to meet our pups before a week away and they love him. We are definitely going to request him again for future needs!

Erica took wonderful care of our 3 cats while we were away for 3 days. She was reliable, communicative, and made sure everything stayed clean and comfortable for them. We really appreciated the updates and especially the pictures and knowing our pets were in good hands. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a kind and trustworthy cat sitter!

Mahiya is a superstar dog sitter, there are not enough stars to rate her. Our dogs are a part of her family as they are of ours. She creates an environment that meet the dogs needs and more. She’s always accommodating and very flexible. Her home is a second home for our dogs, it is not a sitter’s home.
