“Norman showed up with great energy & care for our first time with him sitting. Page loves to see him & Norman stays in touch throughout the day with good awareness to tune in for needs for me & pup while I was away.”


“Troy & Shalah were AMAZING with our baby Cosmo and our home! 🤩 We were beyond happy to see daily photos of Cosmo, along with check ins and texts regularly. We had absolutely no concerns at all and will happily book them again! Thanks so much! 🐶❤️”


“Alex watched my dog overnight at my house while I was on a short work trip. I typically leave Oso with family when I have to go away, and last time I used a different sitter I had a bad experience, so I was hesitant to leave him overnight. But Alex was professional and I knew Oso was in good hands. Came home to a happy dog. Thank you!!”


“Leah is a wonderful cat sitter! She took great care of our two cats. It is a unique situation because they stay in different parts of the house, but she handled it like a pro! She played with them and spent time with them! She sent updates and photos! Looking forward to having Leah come back soon!”


“Robert was very attentive to our dog. He took him on walks and spent a lot of time hanging out with him. He kept us updated throughout our trip and sent lots of pictures. We were very happy with him. I would highly recommend him and will use him again!”


“Dawn was so caring and loving with my girls. This was a last minute booking , but it felt like she had known my pups forever. Dawn took her time to get to know each of my dogs’ personalities and made sure they were well taken care of. She followed all my instructions. My house looked great upon my return. I will definitely will be using her again in the near future!”


“Fantastic house/dog sitter! She did an AMAZING job taking care of my two dogs and keeping us in the loop with daily photos and reports. If you get the opportunity to book with Alexa do it!!”


“Kayla was awesome. She stayed at our place with our older pup and new puppy. Sent us updates and pictures. We felt totally confident in leaving our pups with her so we could go and relax. Will definitely be reaching out to her again in the future!”


About: I grew up with a chihuahua who was part of our family for 11 years, and I currently help care for our 4-year-old rescued Australian shepherd/pit bull mix. I especially enjoy going on walks and getting to know each dog’s personality while hanging out. I graduated from UW–Madison in May and am currently in my gap year before starting medical school. While I’m applying for a gap year job, my schedule is pretty flexible on both weekdays and weekends right now! I have a fenced yard and a very friendly dog who loves having company. He’s free to roam the house during the day and sleeps in a crate at night. I’m happy to follow a routine that works best for your dog.


“Brian was great! Not only did Oskar get loads of attention and play time, Brian kept me in the loop with photos and texts while I was out of the country--which made vacation much more relaxing. :) Oskar is a big boy with anxiety and OCD issues and Brian took him and his "special needs" totally in stride! I could literally tell when I got back that Oskar had played a ton and was contentedly very tired.It was also wonderful to return to a clean home! Five stars for sure!”


About: I'm 63 and you can call me Frank! I have had and loved dogs since I was a kid. Okay, mom and dad did most of the work back then, but from my teenage years on I've housebroken and helped raise three of my dad's chihuahua's, the last of which we adopted when he passed ten years ago. She is still with us, along with my daughter's dog who also lives with us now! Also, my son's chihuahua puppy visits every two weeks or so! We are all very diligent with getting them on schedules, fed, walked and played-with regularly. My dad's almost 14 year old chihuahua still plays with the puppy, that tell you something? My pictures show a couple shots of our dogs on vacation with us in Gettysburg- they've also been to Canada, Ocean City, NJ and Lake Glory in the past ten years! We lost the Sheltie, Bella, in January but she had a great life, also pictured! We also had a Tabby named Stanley for 16 years, so I'm cat-friendly too! Your pet will have a great time and be spoiled a bit, whether I'm stopping by for a short stay or sticking around for a while! Of course, your rules first, so just let me know what you need and I'll do the rest! I'm currently driving with Lyft, but really want to scale back the driving and use my flexible schedule constructively by making some of my favorite animals happy! We have a fully-fenced yard in which the dogs love to run, 1100 square feet inside and basically all doggies are treated like family! They are fed dog food only, and just a light treat or two during the day, also dog-related, not "people food" treats. Plain, boiled chicken is the only exception, with white rice if there's an upset belly!. They are bathed monthly in the summer, and brushed randomly, though my daughter's dog has very short hair. I have also stayed at the homes of several individuals to care for their pets, a few of whom should be submitting testimonials shortly, if they haven't already!

“Wendy is the best! She cares for our dog & cats more than anyone and we trust her to give them the best care. We can’t say enough good things about her attention to detail and her love for animals.”


“Alyssa was wonderful with my Sascha. It was my first time leaving her with a sitter, and Alyssa made Sascha and me feel very comfortable leaving her with Alyssa. Alyssa kept me updated and sent pictures to reassure me Sascha was doing just fine. I highly recommend this young lady to sit with your beloved pet. You can trust that she will take good care of them.”


“We had a wonderful experience with Danielle as our in-home dog sitter! Even though it was just for a day, she made a big impression. Finn was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. Danielle followed all our instructions perfectly, sent us plenty of updates and photos, and treated our home with the utmost respect. It gave us such peace of mind knowing Finn was in such good hands. We would absolutely recommend Danielle to anyone looking for a reliable, kind, and responsible sitter. Thank you again!”


“We were worried our dog Lucky wouldn’t adjust to anyone new, but Natalie was amazing! She played so well with our tiny Yorkshire Terrier, and he loved her - didn’t even miss us! Highly recommend her pet-sitting services!”

She’s super friendly, dependable, and made sure he got tons of love, attention, and playtime. I felt so at ease knowing he was in such good hands.

Francis L.
“For as long as I have known Frank he has always been a true animal lover. He has always had 2 to 3 dogs of his own and we have used him to help take care of our two dogs when we were away. He is extremely patient and loving with our dogs. We have two rescues and one of them had a bad life before we got her. She is always wary of people who are not a part of her regular life. Frank always takes the time and patience to make her feel comfortable every time she re-meets him. He has even earned the coveted “kiss” of acceptance from her! Frank takes extra special care to make sure our dogs were exercised and cared for, treating them like his own. We would highly recommend him to any other pet owner.”
