“Ashley is absolutely amazing with Gio and Athena. This is her second time watching them in less than 2 weeks and I’m so grateful she was available for both. Gio loves her and it was so nice to receive photos and updates throughout the day. She was very active with him and even took him on a walk in the cold weather. Also, did a wonderful job of managing our female cat Athena while she was in heat and not letting Gio get too much up in her business which we greatly appreciate. Would recommend Ashley to anyone and hope she will be available in the future!”

“Carla was very sweet to our pups and is a very sweet person in general. She came and left just when she said she would and sent us updates and was very responsive when we messaged and checked in. One of our pups had an accident in their bed and she washed and dried their blankets! Our home was left like she was never even here. We’d happily book with Carla again! Thank you so much for taking care of our fur babies Carla!”


About: I've had over 5 different breeds of dogs during my time on this earth, all different sizes and energy levels, and would love to care for a dog in need of attention or care while an owner is busy or away! I love high energy breeds which lead active lifestyles and low energy breeds that just need extra attention! I am a fun but disciplined dog owner, who has raised 3 different dogs from puppy to adult, and would be willing to maintain a strict training schedule if need be! My availability on the weekends is open! I would love to spend my weekends walking your pet and seeing them. Its a great opportunity to spend time with a pet. I would care for your pets like they were my own. I had an elderly pug who recently passed away and cared with her with the highest standard of care!
“Mya sit for us last week while we were on vacation. She was great: very respectful of our home, communicative and treated our dog Bosco amazingly. He definitely enjoyed their walks together and cuddle with her on the couch and in bed. We will definitely use her again!!”

“Luis took great care of my dogs. Kodak is on a strict crate rest and meds. Luis was able to administer his meds and ensure he was ok. Jacky is my hype dog and he loved Luis. He sent pictures and updates through the stay. I had no worries:). If you’re looking for a sitter, Luis is your guy! I will definitely booked him for future needs.”

“OMG. MacKenzie is a true dog whisperer. Our pup, Marlowe, is 9 months old and suddenly started barking and growling at strangers. He did the same during the initial meet-and-greet. MacKenzie was not deterred and managed to put him at ease, playing in the yard with him. After we left for our trip, she sent photos, videos, and texts throughout the weekend with updates about their adventures. She even took him along to meet her family and their dogs (they got on like a house on fire and played in the fenced-in yard for a long, long time. Suffice it to say, Marlowe didn't want to leave their house). MacKenzie stayed at our house for 2.5 days (we came back to a super neat house, a happy puppy, and a lovely welcome-back note). Marlowe had plenty of puppy playdates and he actually tried to get in the car with her when she left. We have already asked her to come back for our next trip, that was a no-brainer! What a loving, caring, and careful sitter. MacKenzie is a joy and super responsible and responsive. You can't go wrong with her.”


“Rachel was great with my dog, Sadi, and my 4 cats and really kept the house maintained while I was away for almost 2 weeks. She asked questions when needed and kept me posted on what was going on with them, including pictures! I was very comfortable with the care she provided to the pets and they seemed to really enjoy their time with her! Would highly recommend, will definitely use her again for my travels! Thanks Rachel!”
“Shayna was amazing! She stayed with our two dogs for a little over a week, one of which is a bit of a nut, and they were so happy and calm and well-cared for. Shayna was communicative, friendly, professional, and respectful, and we came home to a clean house and happy pups. We would book her again in a heartbeat!”

About: What makes me different from other sitters is my attention to detail and my commitment to treating every pet like my own. I tailor my care to each animal’s personality and needs, whether they require lots of activity or just quiet companionship. I’m comfortable with leash training, crate routines, and building trust with anxious or shy pets. I also provide regular updates, photos, and clear communication to keep pet parents informed and reassured. My goal is always to make your pet feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Pet care is a natural part of my daily and weekly routine. I structure my day around the needs of the animals I’m caring for—whether that’s early morning walks, scheduled feedings, medication times, or evening play sessions. I enjoy staying active, so daily walks and outdoor time with dogs are something I genuinely look forward to. I also set aside time for one-on-one interaction, training reinforcement, and keeping living areas clean and comfortable. If I’m doing drop-ins or overnight stays, I plan my schedule to ensure pets receive consistent attention and aren’t left alone for long stretches. Pet care isn’t something I “fit in”—it’s something I prioritize. When pets stay in my home, I provide a safe, pet-friendly environment with plenty of space to relax, play, and feel comfortable. I maintain a consistent routine with feeding, potty breaks, exercise, and quiet time. I always separate pets as needed for safety and comfort, and I make sure each animal has their own space, toys, and bedding. Cleanliness is a top priority, and I supervise interactions closely to ensure a calm and happy home. When I care for pets in their own homes, I do my best to maintain their familiar routines. I follow all care instructions carefully—feeding schedules, walk times, medications, and any behavioral or training cues. I also keep the home tidy, bring in mail or packages if needed, and provide regular updates with photos and notes to give peace of mind. My goal is always to keep your pet happy, healthy, and stress-free in their own environment.
“Christine took great care of our two dogs and our home for a full week. We received updates daily with pictures of the dogs enjoying their time with Christine and came home to the house in fantastic shape. We hope to have Christine again when we’re out of time next!”

“Alexis stayed at our house for a week and cared for our cats, dog, and rabbit. She did a great job. The animals were happy and well rested when we got home and the house was in great condition. She was very communicative and sent pictures of how everyone was doing while we were gone. It gave us great peace of mind knowing everyone was so well cared for. Thank you!”

“She is the sitter you are looking for. Her confidence and experience with animals made us feel confident and comfortable to go away for a long weekend. She updated us with pictures throughout the day. Moriah is amazing and already plan on rebooking. 😊”


About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life and have a lot of experience with dogs of all sizes! I’ve been watching pets of family and friends for years and have a 65 pound American Bully- Stella 🐶 I currently work from home full time and have flexibility in both the mornings, evenings and weekends! With working from home, my schedule is flexible to accommodate to both you and your pets’ needs! I have experience with animals of all kinds of personalities and safety/security is my number one goal. I’m able to crate effectively, supervise, and ensure the safety of your pet.
“I recently used Alicia for the first time, but it certainly will be the last! She took care of my dog and two cats for a week. My dog is a rescue who can be nervous around new people, but Sadie warmed up to her, and Alicia sent me lots of pictures of the cats on her lap, and Sadie sitting right next to her. That’s all I needed to know to know Alicia was great at what she does. The house was clean when I returned home, and everyone was happy. I highly recommend!”
