“I think it’s safe to say that my cat loved staying with Allan. First sitter where he came home and didn’t hide or was skittish right after. He was relaxed, as if I didn’t stress him out by sending him away. Allan also gave regular updates and lots of photos. I would definitely trust him with Ubba again!”
“Erin was amazing with our dog Kenai! She watched him for us while we went on our honeymoon and truly made Kenai feel at home! She sent plenty of updates and pictures to give us space of mind and we could tell Kenai just loved her and her dog Baz when we went to pick him up! I would gladly have her dog sit for us again and HIGHLY recommend her!”
“We can't wait to take Stella back! She loved her stay and I loved the communication and pictures we got! I've already rebooked three additional stays. Our experience could not have been better!”
“Habun did a great job, doing everything she could to make our dog (and us) comfortable. She was happy to send frequent pictures and take her on fun walks and trips. We would definitely book again!”

“Stephanie was wonderful to work with! Very accommodating, caring, and a comfort to us as we left our babies with a “stranger “ for the first time. Stephanie was able to meet and greet with us in advance and it went very well. Stephanie made a point to keep us updated several times throughout the day with notes about how they were getting along and pictures of their antics. All these things and more gave us the peace of mind to enjoy our time away and not worry about how they were! Thanks for providing this valuable service.”

About: Hi, I’m Raegan! I’m an experienced and dependable pet sitter who genuinely enjoys spending time with both cats and dogs. I’ve cared for animals of all ages, sizes, and personalities, and I always tailor my care to meet each pet’s unique needs—whether that’s daily walks, quiet companionship, medication support, or lots of playtime. At home, I share my space with two cats, so I understand the importance of creating a calm and comfortable environment—especially for pets who may be shy, anxious, or sensitive to routine changes. I also have experience with high-energy dogs who love to stay active and engaged. I work full-time in social services and bring the same calm, patient, and attentive approach to every pet I care for. You can expect reliable communication, timely updates, and thoughtful care that treats your pets like the valued family members they are. I have a flexible schedule outside of my full-time job, which allows me to offer morning, evening, and weekend visits depending on your pet’s needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize consistency, comfort, and communication. I always follow the pet’s established routine as closely as possible—whether that’s feeding schedules, walk times, play preferences, or medication. I take time to build trust with each animal, moving at their pace and paying close attention to their body language and behavior.
