“Joyce is excellent! We left our two babies with her and she treated them with love and care. She is an extremely caring person and treats others' animals as if they were her own. She kept in regular contact with us during our trip and soon became our dogs best friend! Would highly recommend her for sitting or walking your animals. She's great!!”
“Jane is excellent. Our two dogs love her and we can tell that she is very loving and caring towards animals and can sense their wants and needs. Jane has a calm and relaxing manner about her and our dogs feel comfortable and safe with her. We highly recommend Jane to help with any care of your animals you might have. Very pleased and would ask for her help the next time we go on vacation.”
“Erin was perfect! She gave us updates regularly and was the best house guest, the house was in better condition than it was when we left. She was flexible on the cost too because we have a ridiculous amount of fur babies which we really appreciated. She even brought in mail without being asked!! We will definitely be asking her to care for our pets again!!”
“Tiara went above and beyond to care for our little girl. She was so kind to her and took her out several times each day, even finding new places for her to run free in the countryside, She left our house spotless as well. No problem recommending her and would definitely have her back.”
“Kendra went above and beyond taking care of our pets and our home while we were on vacation. I highly recommend her as a pet sitter, we came home to a clean house and happy pets! Great communication.”
“This was the second time Gloria stayed at our house. I felt our beloved cat, BJ, was in excellent hands with Gloria. When we returned, the house was just as we left it, litter boxes scooped, and BJ was relaxed, fed, and happy (the most important thing)! It was as though we had never left! We felt bad because, while we were gone, our TV died and our air conditioning wasn't working, but Gloria took it in stride. We and BJ hope Gloria will house/cat-sit again for us in the future (TV and heat pump have both been replaced!). Thank you, Gloria.”
“Hannah was great with my 3 dogs and cat! One of my dachshunds has anxiety and he took right to her, which was amazing! She shared pics of them with me frequently, went above and beyond and stayed later because my flight came in at midnight, and the house was nice and tidy when I got home. Thank you Hannah!”
“Cate was wonderful and so well prepared. This was the first time leaving my pets over night with someone that’s not family and I had such a great experience. Will definitely be booking with her again!”
“Hannah stayed with our dogs while we were away for the weekend. Our two little dogs loved her and we felt comfortable that they were being well taken care of while we were gone. Hannah kept in touch with updates on how our babies were doing and sending pictures which was much appreciated. Highly recommend Hannah’s pet/house sitting services!”

About: I had a dog myself growing up. Her name was Montana and she lived up to fifteen years. I have taken care of puppies all the way up to older dogs. Back in high school I even house sat my family friends dogs for when they were on vacation. Dogs have always been a huge part of my life. They are even my favorite animal. I will be great for being active with your pooch or even laying low and relaxing; whichever you prefer. I am currently unemployed and transitioning between jobs and I am a person who is just wanting to help out other families even if it's to watch someones furry family member. I am also very reliable and will always be there when I am needed. I have a completely open schedule. I am currently not working so my availability is pretty flexible. I am also used to working early in the morning or late at night. I prefer to meet with the animal first. Caring needs depends on the task. I like to have the animal get to know me and feel more comfortable with me before taking them out for walks
