“Lori and Daisy had a great time! Lori kept me informed while I was away with sweet photos and texts. My apartment was in great shape upon my arrival home. Bed linens washed and replaced, kitchen cleaned up and all dishes put away. I will definitely ask Lori to stay with Daisy in the future! 😊”


“Sarah proved immediately she was going to be reliable and an excellent communicator. Our pup hit it off immediately with her and upon returning home, we could tell she had been left in great hands. We appreciate Sarah and will absolutely book with her again!”


“Kayla was great with my older dog. She made Sadie feel comfortable immediately and gained her trust to administer her needed eye medications. I would definitely book her again in the future!”



“Lisa was an amazing dog sitter while I was out of town in week vacation. She frequently sent updates thriugh text messages and pictures and took very good care of my senior doggie. My dog requires to take medication and required a little extra care. Lisa was very good with her and did amazing job. I felt very comfortable with Lisa coming to my home to take care of our dog. I would definitely recommend using Lisa for a pet sitter and i would love to have Lisa again in the future when out of town.”


“Alex was great. We found out last minute we needed a dog sitter and he was able to fit us in. In addition, our hot water heater went out the day before he was due to house/dog sit. Unfortunately, we weren't able to get a plumber to fix it before we left. When I told him, I was afraid he might cancel understandably. But, he just rolled with it. He was so ok with it that it totally relieved my anxiety about it. The dogs loved him, the house looked great when returned and I am so grateful he was there.”



“Mark was so great w my pets!!! He followed the schedule to a T and made sure to pass along plenty of updates. I always get nervous about letting people into my home, but Mark proved to be nothing but professional and responsible! I’ll definitely be seeking him out again soon!”


“Scott and Samantha are our go to sitters for our Italian Greyhound, Quincy! We have used them multiple times, and always come home to a clean house and a very happy dog. Quincy has pretty bad separation anxiety, but Scott and Samantha give him extra attention, care, and snuggles. We highly recommend them to help with any of your pets’ needs!”


About: I've been around various breeds of dogs for as long as I can remember. During my time volunteering at Paws and Prayers Animal Rescue, I've handled as little as the Chihuahua to as large as the Great Dane! I am currently working part-time, so my schedule is typically pretty open most of the time. I am always open to meet your pups! Big and small! I have handled pups both big and small! Whatever challenge your dog throws at me, I can take it! I am able to crate dogs when necessary.

“Such a wonderful experience, he helped us out last minute & dog/house sat for us. He sent so many pics of the dogs & they seemed so happy with him & he left the house looking great! Highly recommend him! Thankyou!! 🙂”


“Julia was great to my boys! She was responsive and gave us great peace of mind while we were away for the night. She even got my stubborn dog to take his medicine which I struggle to do sometimes 🤣 Thanks Julia!!!!”


“Teresa was amazing with our dogs! She spent the weekend with them and they truly enjoyed spending time with her. She sent sweet updates and pictures of them too. Which was such a bonus!! We would definitely love for her to watch our dogs again in the future!”


About: I love Gods creatures, great and small. I am a lover of unconditional 4 legged of love! I will treat your fur family as if they were my own- unconditionally and with care! I do work a part time job, but officially retired, I love to walk, I look forward to being motivated and sharing the joy of it! I have flexibility and mobility. I can also stay in your pets comfortable environment, to make sure they have comfort and care well with them. I would favor allowing your fur family to remain in their comfortable environment rather than stressing them in my home. I am available to come to serve you and them.

About: Hi! My name is Faith, and I’m a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for dogs and cats of all types and temperaments. I currently have a high-energy husky of my own, so I fully understand the importance of daily exercise, mental stimulation, and structure—especially for active breeds. I also have experience working with dogs who have resource guarding tendencies and know how to approach them with patience and safety in mind. Growing up, I helped care for my family’s German Shepherd and cats. I’ve also provided ongoing care for elderly pets and cats with a wide range of personalities and needs. I frequently pet sit for friends and family in addition to working full-time as a school psychologist, and I treat every pet as if they were my own—with kindness, consistency, and attention to detail. Whether your pet needs a calm, gentle presence or a playmate who can keep up with their energy, I’m here to meet their unique needs. I’ll take the time to learn your pet’s routine, preferences, and quirks so I can provide individualized care that gives you peace of mind. I currently work as a School Psychologist and I am away from home between the hours of 6:15 AM and 3:45PM on week days (Monday through Friday). I am open to pet sitting outside of those hours, and I have open weekend availability. Please schedule at least one week in advance for pet sitting. I will consider last minute booking requests, but my availability may be more limited. I currently do not offer boarding services because my personal dog battles with resource guarding behaviors and does not do well with other dogs. I am happy to pet sit for you in your home!

“Julie was awesome! She saved us from having to cancel our vacation. 2 days before our trip, our 60lb Boxer showed symptoms of kennel cough which meant we could not board him ?. With no back up plan, we were frantic to book someone to stay in our home overnight with our dog. After reaching out to a dozen or so people, Julie was prompt to respond and let us know about other obligations she committed to during those dates. We worked out a flexible schedule and did a meet and greet the same day. We booked her the same day! She was comfortable with our dog’s illness, medication and behavioral needs. She communicated daily about our dogs symptoms and assured us of any problems. Her Vet Tech background helped us relax on vacation. We were so lucky to find her and we will definitely use her in the future. Thank you again Julie for taking care of our pup!”


“Chelsea is fantastic. She was so good with my knucklehead for the time she spent here. She was quite empathetic and caring for my doggo and a great caretaker for the house. 10/10 would certainly recommend.”


“Renee was amazing with Lucy and so accommodating to my last minute booking! I felt so at ease knowing she was in good hands while I was away. She provided lots of pictures and updates. Renee went above and beyond to make sure Lucy had the best care possible. Thanks, Renee!”
