“I have no complaints, Margot was excellent! I was going out of town for a week and felt awful leaving my cat alone, but she provided me with updates (and pictures) which put me at ease. Overall I would definitely book her again!”
“Dylan is truly a dog person! We have a rescue that is a bit skittish with new people (due to her past abuse) and Dylan knew exactly how to approach her! The fact that he has been willing to get to know her even when she's a bit grumbly is greatly appreciated. Luckily our other pup, a Great Pyrenees mix, is already best buddies with him! He shows up early to bookings, always leaves us photos, is reliable and super friendly to work with! He's also very quick to let you know if he's available for a booking. I absolutely recommend Dylan as a sitter and look forward to our continued work with him!”
“Alivia was prompt in responding to all my texts and, when I met her, I immediately sensed her love of animals. I greatly appreciated the pictures she sent of my fur babies while I was away. Alivia was trustworthy and I would not hesitate to reach out to her again in the future.”
“Steve is a very professional and knowledgeable dog sitter. We’ve been working together a week or so now. Really helped out tremendously with two very very active German Shepherd’s. My dogs liked him during professional meet and greet and he was always calm and took care of dogs properly. Highly recommended.”

About: I’m a lifelong animal lover with three dogs and a cat of my own, so I truly understand how important your pets are. I have experience with all breeds, including dog-aggressive pups, and I’m comfortable with pets of all sizes and personalities. I’m happy to help with daily walks, playtime, and administering medications if needed. Whether it’s for a quick visit or a longer stay, your pets will be in loving, capable hands! I work 8am until 4:30 pm every weekday with a break in between to check on my own fur babes. I’m available any time on the weekends and anytime every day in the afternoon. I care for pets by following their strict instructions for the process they use to care for their pets. I know I have specific guidelines for mine and I expect people to follow that routine. I want clients to trust that I will follow their routine!
About: I have had family dogs all my life! It has always been a passion of mine to make sure they get the best level of care. I have my own year old pup and have seen all the ins and outs of dog care! I am most comfortable working on nights and weekends with occasional holidays! I get up with my dog early in the morning and walk everyday! I have a fenced in yard and a quiet neighborhood that makes so for a safe and welcoming environment for pet sitting and pet care!
“Kyle took great care of our pups. Both of our dogs are high energy and he kept them busy while we were away. He is friendly and kept them well fed, and also made sure to dry off the pups before letting them back in as it was rainy while we were gone. There was an accident that had not been addressed, but otherwise all was swell. Thank you for taking good care of our doggos, Kyle!!”
About: I’ve had animals since I could walk. They have always been a part of my life. I worked at an animal shelter for a few years, working with dogs, cats, horses, and even goats. I bathed dogs, took them on walks, and even administered medicine when needed. I am currently a stay-at-home mom so I have a ton of time to spend caring and playing with your furry friends! My daughter loves animals as well and treats them with respect! I have big yard with tons of space for your dogs to roam! If you would like, I have space for their crates as well.
About: I had 2 dogs growing up and have experience with various breeds through my work and schooling. I am educated on assessing body language and handling aggression, excitement, etc. I have extensive experience with cats, and take care of multiple cats both at work and those belonging to relatives. I work part time at an animal hospital, so I will be open some days during the week! I can arrive early depending on the travel distance and stay late— whatever you need I am open to discussing! As I do not board animals in my own home, your comfort is one of my top priorities. I am clean, consistent, reliable, and value communication. You and your animal’s comfort with is very important to me!
About: I’ve been around animals for my whole life and absolutely love them. Your pet will be treated as a member of my family because it matters to me. Right now I work at a job that has changing hours so my availability shifts. An additional bonus is that I create my work schedule. My dog is my world and I treat him like gold. Pets are part of your family and deserve to be taken care of well; even by a sitter.
