“Sabrina was absolutely wonderful and a perfect fit for my dog! She provided updates through pictures and videos of my dog and made me feel comfortable with the fact that I was away from my pup. She also took her for walks throughout the day, which I know my dog Eleanor just loved.”


“We had such a wonderful experience with this family caring for our Dalmatian over the weekend! From the moment we dropped him off to the time we picked him up, we knew he was in great hands. They have a beautiful property with farm animals, and our dog loved every minute of running around in the spacious yard with their dogs. The family was so kind and accommodating with both pickup and drop off times. It gave us such peace of mind knowing our pup was safe, happy, and well cared for. Highly recommend!”


“Michelle and her wonderful family wholly welcomed my dog Skye and made her feel so welcome at their beautiful property. She's a bit of a nervous girl, and Michelle was very in tune with her moods and needs. She was gently introduced to Michelle's dogs one at a time, and even got to sleep in a bed with a family member. Not only was Skye reassured and happy, I was too!”


“Absolutely amazing, he took great care of the dogs and updated us regularly. Any questions were easily answered and any problems we were immediately notified. Would definitely recommend him as a sitter.”


“Sara was amazing! Super friendly, great to work with, and our doggie was so well taken care of! Frequent updates with photos. Excellent experience. Highly recommend!!! She (and her adorable kids) are now our go-to dog sitters! 😁”


“Ashleigh’s place is like our dog’s vacation place when we go away on vacation! Ashleigh sends regular updates and pictures, and we have such great peace of mind because we can see how much fun Mochi is having! Thank you for taking good care of Mochi!”


“Our Cora was in great hands for the 5 nights. We worked a festival and couldn't take her, but I felt very comfortable leaving her with their family. The communication was great the entire time we were away and plenty of pictures of our baby having a great time which took away my anxiety about leaving her. Thank you 🙏 for your great service!”


“Raluca is he answer to my prayers. I have used her services several times for periods ranging from 4-9 days and every time my dog is happy to see me but sad to leave. She communicates and provides updates: photos thru the day. Great and consistent experience overall. I’ll continue to bring my dog to her in the future.”


“Love LOVE Leah! Where do I even begin? First of all, she took us in last minute. She’s super kind, communicative, & took absolute care of our boys! She listened to our concerns & followed our care instructions. I can tell our boys were comfy with her. One of my boys is almost 18 years old, completely blind, wears a diaper, & needs that round-the-clock care (think newborn baby). My other boy is 8 years old, has separation anxiety, and energetic. Both normally takes a hot minute to acclimate, but not with Leah. They ate/drank immediately with her & wanted snuggles and play time. Picked up our boys and both are happy and healthy! We will definitely be booking Leah again!”


“Emily was absolutely amazing with my puppy! She is only four months old (needs extra attention as most do!), is on a medication, and this was my first time having to leave her with someone else to care for her. When I got there, Emily already had a space set up for my puppy with a large play space and puppy pee pads (just in case haha). Emily sent me pictures and updates every day so that I could see how well she was doing. It made me happy to see her so happy. Then on my way home, I had flight delays, and Emily and her husband were MORE than accommodating to help me pick up my puppy from them quite late in the evening. I can’t recommend Emily enough. I will definitely look to her first when needing a sitter in the future.”


“Paige and Matthew did a great job caring for Stormy. She seemed a bit anxious coming home but that was normal, being she has never been away from me with a stranger. I would definitely recommend Paige and Matthew and will be using their services again.”


“If you are looking for someone to take care of ur little baby just like the way you do at home, Mariah and Max are the ones!! They took such excellent care of Jorge while we went on vacation and Jorge had an absolute awesome time with their dog tucker! They also did an awesome job sending us pictures and updates!! You know that they had a good time when they are sad leaving the sitters and that was def Jorge! Will def visit again!”


“They were so great with our girl Macey and super friendly! They were also great at sending pictures throughout Macey’s stay. Will definitely be booking with them in the future.”


“Our girl Millie had a great time with Katelyn and her family while we had a great time on our trip. We were able to enjoy ourselves knowing she was well taken care of and treated like a family pet. We got lots of pictures and messages from Katelyn throughout her stay. Katelyn was very attentive to any special needs or habits that Millie has. We highly recommend Katelyn for dog sitting!”


About: I am not kidding when I say I have years of experience. I currently work at a vet, so I’m learning everyday about pets. But this experience started years ago, watching dogs, cats , hedgehogs even since age 12. I have had my share of animal stories. I have experience with sick animals so administering medicine would not be a problem. I can go on multiple walks with your animal (usually dogs but my sister walks her cat ;) And if wanted, I do run so if that is something your animals would want, we could do that. I love animals , so I will make time for them whenever I can . Whether it be a night watching your animals or just a walk to help get their energy out, I’m down for it If you just need someone to keep your animal company, I can join it for a snuggle session. Or if your dog has lots of energy, we can go for a run to get those zoomies out.
