“This is the 2nd time we booked Ajia and she was just as great as the first time. Kept me in touch each day with how the pups were doing and sent lots of pictures. We will definitely continue to have Ajia dogsit for us again in our home.”

“We found ourself in need of care for our Kat on short notice and are ever so grateful for the truly amazing response that we received from Sienna! She is a delightful human filled with sunshine and joy. Our home was well cared for and our Kat was so happy to have someone share his space. Amazing!”

About: I have hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments. My background includes daily walks, feeding, and providing attentive companionship. I’m comfortable handling energetic puppies as well as senior pets who need extra patience and care. I focus on creating a safe, stress-free environment so pets feel secure and happy while their owners are away. I am available to care for your pets on Monday, Wednesday, Fridays, Saturday and Sunday all day. Tuesday and Thursday I am available after 5:30pm. Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities. I provide a clean, calm, and secure environment where pets can feel comfortable and relaxed. I carefully follow all care instructions, keep a close eye on behavior, and maintain a routine that matches what your pet is used to. You can trust that your pet will be treated with the same care and attention I would give my own.
“Jasmine was fantastic! My dog had a great time and was relaxed and happy when I got back from my trip. My dog is reactive to dogs and bikes, and Jasmine dealt with that perfectly. Absolutely wonderful!”

“Lacey watched our dog while we were gone for an overnight trip. She was great! She has a nice calm presence that our energies dog responded very well to. We returned to a happy and well cared for dog and we will definitely be using Lacey again!”

“Sage truly went above and beyond while pet sitting for our girl Penny over the week of Thanksgiving. We can't begin to express how happy we were. She took the time leading up to the trip to meet Penny, learn her schedule and mannerisms, what she liked and didn't like and it's clear they have a bond with one another. Over our trip Sage sent lots of videos, updates, and photos which we loved. Sage was very kind and accommodating for our senior girl and made her feel very calm and relaxed with us gone for the holidays. When questions came up, for example about Penny being a picky eater, Sage reached out in a very calm and professional manner to talk with us. She not only left our house as we left it, but cleaner! She took the time to pick up the guest room and do the laundry on her own accord. Sage is an amazing dog sitter and made us feel very comfortable being away from home knowing Penny was in good hands. She has nothing but our heartfelt thanks, admiration, and we'll continue to work with her for our future trips and walks where Penny needs someone we know we can trust.”


“We were so hesitant to leave the pups with a “stranger” but they warmed up to her so quick. She was great with them and often sent us updates and pictures. We feel like we have found our “forever sitter”. Thank you Christina.”
“So thankful to have found Leanna & Julio! We had 2 last minute cancelations and they were able to help us out to house and corgi sit our 2 boys within a weeks notice. Leanna was very communicative and immediately put me at ease leaving Stevie & Dexter in her care for a long weekend. I received several videos and loved seeing our pups so happy and getting plenty of walks! I would highly highly recommend Leanna & Julio and will definitely be using them again in the future!”

“Lucas took great care of my very energetic doggo. He took him on little walks and trips, cuddled with him, and kept him on his regular feeding schedule. He took great care of my home, kept everything clean and was great at communicating anything that was going on. Would definitely recommend!”

“She is awesome. She took care of my dog, my cat, my koi and my birds in my aviary. She kept the house really nice and clean and even washed my blankets. I will definitely be using her in the future. She watched my animals and my home for 3 weeks. You're awesome!”

My intuitive, calm approach helps create a grounded and trusting environment. I also know how to adapt and attune to each animal’s unique needs.

When I’m in a client’s home, I respect their space and keep everything running smoothly, following feeding schedules, playing, or snuggling as needed. I ensure every pet feels comfortable and at ease, making them my top priority.

“Rachael was awesome and our doggies loved her! Got text and photo updates the first couple of days, which alleviated our anxiety about leaving our "kids" with someone else! She stayed at our home and it didn't look like anyone had been there -- very clean! We highly recommend Rachael!”
About: I’ve been caring for animals for the past 7 years, and for the last 2 years I’ve also volunteered at my local animal shelter. Through this, I’ve had the chance to work with dogs of all sizes, ages, and personalities—from playful puppies to gentle seniors. My goal is always to make your pet feel safe, loved, and happy! I work a 9–5 as an engineer, but outside of those hours my schedule is very flexible. I’m available early mornings, evenings, and all weekend. I live in a safe, gated community, which gives pets an extra layer of security when they’re with me. Whether I’m caring for your dog in my home or yours, I always make their safety my top priority—keeping a close eye on them during walks, making sure leashes and harnesses are secure, and giving them a comfortable, stress-free environment.
“Gabrielle did an excellent job looking after our very old cat Lovers. The house was cleaner when we came home as when we left. I highly recommend Gabrielle, we have had her look after our house, cat and fish, several times.”
“Dakota is fantastic!! This is her second time watching Nash, my 11-month-old golden retriever. She’s the first person I ask now when I need someone to stay with him. You can tell she genuinely loves animals and spending time with them. I know he’s in good hands when I leave him with her! She’s friendly, communicative and reliable! She’s my go-to sitter for Nash!”

“So glad Sidney was able to stay at our place with our dog and cat! I felt less stressed on vacation knowing she was taking great care of our animals. She sent daily pics and left our house spotless for when we returned! Highly recommend her!”

Outstanding! Naomi is the best pet sitter we have used in a long time. She took great care of our little Yorkie Poo, she sent plenty of photos, her rates are more than reasonable, and she was on time. She even went out of her way to be available on a two-day notice! She’s reliable, dependable, prompt, and cheerful. Our little Sofia loves her. So will you!

Lacey watched our dog at our house while we were gone for a long weekend and was excellent. Our dog had a great time and we felt great knowing that Lacey was taking great care of her, taking her on long walks and giving her lots of love. Lacey is great with dogs and has a calm presence that helps keep our dog mellow. This is our second time having Lacey dog sit and we’ll definitely do it again!

Devanna was so good with our wild Weim and also took such good care of our other animals as well! She left our home spotless as well and our pup seemed very happy (and tired) when we returned from our trip. Thank you Dev for such a great first overnight visit with Biggie! We’ll definitely see you again soon 🥰
