“Jodie and John are amazing sitters and we would absolutely recommend them! They were very accommodating in setting up a meet & greet first, then a quick 2-night stay, and then a bigger week long trip. They kept in touch with several daily updates and we loved the care, attention and exercise our boy received. He was happy and comfortable around them both and we will certainly book with them in the future!”

She will be our go-to from now on!”

We were nervous leaving him for the first time and she updated us frequently. We will 100% use her services again and highly recommend her!!”


“Anghella was amazing! She was available on short notice, she was close, and Obi was awesome too! There was a miscommunication on my end and she was able to accomodate my needs.

“We love Cindy and John. More importantly, our dog Myra loves them. They take excellent care of Myra, lots of walks, good food, over-all care. Myra becomes part of their family when we are away.”


About: Any time a friend or a neighbor goes out of town or needs help, I'm the first one they call. I love spending time with animals and making sure they are happy, healthy and their needs are met! I love working with all ages. I’ve been around dogs and cats for pretty much my whole life. But I have a love for all animals! I know it can sometimes be hard to leave your furry loved ones with a stranger, but I can promise you I will treat them like my own! They’re in good hands(: I'm currently working a 9-5, but looking for something to keep me busy before and after work! (and weekends when I'm off work as well) I'm very passionate about working with animals I’m super flexible with everything so if you have any concerns, reach out to me and I’m sure we can figure it out! I have two friendly cats who love to play and get along with all animals! They also don't mind hanging out in the basement if need be. I've got a large area indoors and outdoors to keep your pet busy or they can relax on the couch!

“My lab Muffin felt at home with Madison. She went above and beyond to make him feel comfortable knowing Muffin gets home sick all the time. Thanks Madison for taking such hood care of our fur giant. 😂”


“Steve and his wife provided the best care for Bebe. Their home was perfect for her stay: affectionate attention, companionship, and two sweet buddy dogs to play with. I was 100% comfortable leaving her with them and will definitely use them again!”


About: I have cared for and raised dogs of all breeds and sizes since I was 6 years old. I would give my life for every single animal I meet and I'd do so happily if it meant keeping them safe. I have trained puppies and worked with senior dogs administering medication and utilizing aqua therapy to relieve his joint pain. I have no issue doing anything and everything an animal needs to ensure it is living the best life possible I work from home making phone calls so I am always free to walk, check in on, or pet sit at any and all times I have a large house with 2 large but friendly dogs and one small friendly dog all of which would love to keep your dogs company. I have 6 cats that have all grown up around dogs and have no issues being around them. I can happily crate your dog if you so desire and have had dogs in the past that I had to administer medication to multiple times a day so that would be no issue if necessary as well. I would lay my life on the line for any animal happily if it meant ensuring their safety and happiness

“I have used this App couple of times in last 2 months but this time the experience was amazing. Kassandra and her boyfriend both were so nice and my puppy was so happy with him. They sent time to time information and pictures to make sure I am aware of how my puppy is doing. And she is so crisp and clear in her communication. I will see you again whenever we will travel this area again in March . Thank you”


About: Growing up surrounded by six dogs, two birds, a guinea pig, fish, and cats, I’ve developed a deep compassion and understanding of animals. My hands-on experience has taught me the importance of care, patience, and attention to each pet’s unique needs. I’m excited to bring that same dedication and passion to caring for your furry friends! I work 3 days a week at the hospital and know my schedule over a month in advance which leaves 4 days open per week to assist in pet care! In my home, I ensure that all pets are given the attention they need through regular feeding, playtime, affection, and maintaining a clean environment. I monitor their health and comfort closely. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I maintain their routine as closely as possible, ensuring they receive consistent meals, exercise, and companionship the same way I would love my own. I also make sure to follow any specific instructions provided by the pet owner!
