“She did a stellar job. I was nervous leaving my cat with a brand new sitter, but Kylie took great care of her and she was so happy when I returned home! Thank you so much Kylie, I highly recommend her!”
“Nikki was a top notch last min find for me and my boys…she was quick to respond, and eased my anxiety by meeting me and my pups before my drop in to ensure everyone was comfortable with each other. My anxious dog was very quick to warm up to her which proves to me she has a special way with 4 legged friends. She was attentive and gave lots of snuggles to my little buddies. Would def use her again”

“Jade was excellent! She took great care of our 2 cats. She was on time, and very detailed about her visits. She was even willing to stay at our house if our dog was unable to stay with another sitter! I’ll definitely be using her services again! Thanks Jade! :)”
About: As a dog mom myself, I know how important routine, patience, and love are to a happy pup. I’ve personally trained my own dog and have years of experience dog sitting for all kinds of breeds and temperaments. Whether your dog loves long walks, belly rubs, or just someone calm and kind to keep them company, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, loved, and at ease while you’re away. Pet sitting fits seamlessly into my schedule—I work from home and have a flexible routine, which allows me to give pets the time and attention they deserve throughout the day. Whether it’s midday walks, feeding, or just keeping your pets company, I’m able to adjust my workday to meet their needs and keep them happy and comfortable. In my client’s home, I aim to keep your pet’s routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I follow your instructions closely—whether that’s feeding times, walk schedules, medications, or preferred playtime rituals. I also keep things tidy and make sure your pet feels calm, safe, and loved while you’re away
“Brynn was great!! This was our second time having her take care of our pug and she was amazing! She was very responsive and updated me throughout her visit. She brought him a toy (with my permission) and sent pictures of her visit. She’s truly the best!! We will definitely be using her again!”

About: Growing up I always wanted to work with animals. I worked at a pet store for a few years. In that time I learned a lot about small animals and reptiles. I ended up taking a few "misfits"home. I've taken in a Gerbil, Syrian Hamster, Crested Gecko, Parakeets, and a Green Cheeked Conure. They were the most amazing little guys. I've moved out of my parents and now have two kittens named Chowder and Liam and my green cheeked conure Charlie. Of course there are also the family pets I was not able to take when I moved out. Our dog Dodger is a hound mix and our cat Kitty I’m currently working part-time and in school part-time. So I can be pretty flexible. I’m available weekday mornings and evenings. Also weekend afternoons and evenings. When I am entering a home I always keep a calm voice. My priority is safety for both me and the pet. So getting them secure and comfortable before moving on to the tasks.

About: I had a dog for a little over 15 years which passed away only year ago. I miss having a pet with me during the day or snuggling up watching TV at night. I am semi retired and would love to give all my love to animals. While your baby pet is under my care, while mommy and daddy are at work, go out on a date or even go on a short vacation. I live in safe and quiet neighborhood which makes it an ideal area to walk dogs. I have plenty of experience handling ill pets, so if your furry baby requires medication, they will be in good hands.
