“Colleen was fantastic! She sent daily photo updates of my pup, arrived when she was scheduled, and even won over my cats! My Bleu was well taken care of which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. The booking process was simple, and I’d highly recommend Colleen for reliable, loving pet care!”

5. Devin & Alexis E.
“We really appreciated Devin taking care of our elderly dog, Lacy. We moved recently and she’s been under a lot of stress. I didn’t want to board her and add to the stress so we hired Devin. He came by to meet her and he was so attentive. We’ll definitely use Devin again soon!!”

“Arianna was so helpful and treated my cat like he was her own!! Would highly recommend!”
9. Michael K.
“Mike did an amazing job taking care of my dog while I was away! His house is super dog friendly, with plenty of space for the dogs to play and relax. Both the front and backyard are fully fenced, which was a huge plus. My dog loved running around and exploring, and I felt great knowing she was safe and secure. He took the time to learn my dog’s routine and preferences, making sure she got plenty of exercise and love. He also kept me in the loop with how my dog was doing and sent a few pictures. It was great to see my dog happy and enjoying her stay. I couldn’t be happier with the care Michael provided. If you’re looking for a safe, welcoming place to board your dog, especially with plenty of outdoor space, I highly recommend him. I’ll definitely be back!”
10. Tillisa C.
“Tillisa is a wonderful pet sitter who takes excellent care of my boys! She is very warm and friendly and is great with their needs! I always get a detailed review of her time with them and the cutest pictures!! 10/10 would book over and over again!”
11. Kristan B.
“Kristan was a wonderful pet sitter! She was very attentive to my cats during her drop in visits - she made sure they were taken care of and also played with them! She sent daily pictures and updates of how they were doing and communicated with me frequently as needed. My pets took to her immediately and she was great with them, even my shy cat loved her! Definitely would recommend her services and will be using her again for future pet sitting needs!”
12. Philip & Sydney B.
“Philip is one of the most respectful people I have ever met. He has an ethical conscience and shows true care for those around him. He is constantly a playmate with his dog Appa and routinely makes sure he gets his "walkies," in. Philip would love nothing more than to help care for dogs when others are in need of assistance during their busy schedules!”
13. Gabrielle W.
“A great pet sitter! Is comfortable with my large dogs and my cats. My pets really like when she drops in to give them treats or to go for a walk. Very kind and reliable.”
14. Kaleigh W.
“She did awesome with my rott and Belgian malinois. She let them play off leash and they were so happy when we got home.”
15. Allysa B.
“Allysa cared for my two elderly cats while I was out of town for two weeks. She kept in close communication with me about the cats, and was very responsive to my concerns. On two different occasions, she went “above and beyond” to ensure my cats were well cared for, and I am very grateful for her efforts! I will definitely be using her services again!”
16. Kayla S.
“Fantastic. Way to go!!”
17. Amy N.
“Amy lived next door for years and has watched my dog on multiple occasions and always exceeds expectations. My dog is always excited to see her. Would recommend her to anybody. She treats him with the love and care as if he is her own.”
18. Lauren V.
About: I have taken care of dogs my entire life! I have been a trusted house sitter for neighbors with multiple pets and cared for my own lab, golden retriever, and sheepadoodle growing up. I’m currently a graduate student on clinical rotations. When I’m not working in the clinic, I am able to care for pets on my days off. I am willing to house sit or perform drop in visits. I can feed, walk, and clean your pet! I am also willing to administer medication. I will make sure to make your pet feel at ease while you are out.
19. Akyia C.
“If you are looking for someone that is passionate about animals then look no further. Akyia C. is much like a fur whisperer and is able to engage with them on a whole new level. Akyia has provided fun and exciting exercises for my fur babies that not only get them off the lazy chair but stimulates their mind.”
