“Went away for a family vacation for a week and Jenna did an absolutely phenomenal job caring for our dog. Sent a lot of pictures and constant updates to give us peace of mind when we were away! Would definitely recommend Jenna!”

“Karen took good care of our babies. We received daily pics and she was responsive to all messages. We returned home to happy fur babies and the house was as clean as we left it.”

“We had an amazing experience with Brandi while she watched our dog, Stevie, during our vacation. From the start, she was communicative, reliable, and thoughtful. We received regular updates and adorable pictures of Stevie, which really gave us peace of mind while we were away. When we got home, the house was spotless—exactly how we left it, if not better! Most importantly, Stevie was happy, healthy, and clearly well cared for. It was obvious Brandi gave her lots of love and attention. We’re so grateful to have found someone we trust with both our home and our pup. We would absolutely recommend Brandi to anyone looking for a responsible and caring pet sitter!”

“This was Briley’s second stay with our pups and once again, she did a wonderful job. Great communicator and gives us the peace of mind that our pups are well taken care of and loved on.”

“Haydyn was amazing with my two pups! She sent me tons of updates, which gave me total peace of mind while I was away. I could tell they were not only well taken care of, but genuinely happy in her care. It’s clear she loves animals and treats them like her own. I wouldn’t hesitate to book with her again!”

“Isabela was great with our two dogs. We booked her for house sitting while we were away on vacation and our dogs were well taken care of. She stayed with them for long periods of time, not just quick check ins and we really appreciated that. She was also great with communication! Would definitely recommend her and plan to book her next time!”

About: I began pet sitting in college and fell in love with the experience. I have pet and house sat for about 5 years and am always happy to love on someone's beloved furry family members (only the kind with 4 legs, please ;). If you want someone to send lots of pictures and updates about your baby, then I’m your girl! I have additional experience in puppy training, home care, and multi-species households. I work from home, which allows me to place pet care as a priority in my schedule. This gives me plenty of flexibility for walks, play time, accident clean-up, and more. As I work from home, I am able to keep round the clock supervision of animals. I have a fenced in dog park that can allow for off-leash activities. I also have a very brave cat who enjoys meeting new people and pets.
“Daniel was GREAT while house sitting my golden! Very attentive and sent daily photos and even daily logs. I have already booked Daniel for another stay and will continue to book him in the future.”


“Kaitlin is phenomenal! She took excellent care of our fur babies while we were traveling. She followed instructions and reached out with extra considerations. We felt secure knowing our pups (and home) were in good hands. We would absolutely recommend her to others.”

“Emma stayed with my cat Patrick for a week while I was in another state for work. Patrick needs some special attention and takes daily medication. She did a great job making sure he was taking care of and comfortable! Additionally, she communicated with me well and made sure to send me some pictures every day!”

“Lilia was amazing with our rescue pup, Berkley! She is super calm and kind - we could tell our Berkley already felt comfortable around her the first time she met her! She sent us many photos throughout the weekend. She was very communicative and professional. We would recommend her to any friend or family member!”

“Kara was so amazing! She followed all my instructions and gave my dogs the best care this weekend! When we got home our house was just as clean as we left it. She sent lots of picture updates also which made me happy! Would definitely use her again!!”

“Jennifer’s pet and house sitting service was great. She communicated very well, both before and during her stay. She provided both photos and updates each day. Would definitely book her again.”

“Alyssa did a great job with our anxious doggies! They seemed very content when we came back from our trip which is a testament to how well she did with them and how comfortable they were with her. We will definitely look to her in the future!”

“Sydney was a wonderful house/pet sitter and I would recommend her to anyone. I was very comfortable knowing our pets were well taken care of and she took better care of our home than we do 😂”

About: I always insure that pets are comfortable! I’ve taken care of old cats and dogs, and I when they are old like that it’s important to meet their needs first, as most of the time they need a lot of guidance and help. I am currently going into online college, so most of my day is free! I often sit down and watch TV or play video games, but I mostly enjoy writing and drawing in my free time I personally like to ask owners how there pets are in the company of others, as well as if any weather bugs them! The comfort of my pets, and owners is always my number 1 priority! I want to make sure that they are comfortable around me, and I never approach any animal until I’ve let them sniff me, it’s important that they trust me to be around them.

About: I’ve taken care of pets for as long as I can remember. I’ve taken care of friends, family, and neighbors’ pets since I was about 15 doing drop in visits, going on walks and much more! I currently have a dog, two cats and 4 fish. I love taking care of animals! I work at my family’s business and have pretty flexible work hours. I can leave if needed to take care of pets during the day. With a schedule there should be no problem any day of the week. I take great pride in making sure each pet is loved, safe, and well taken care of. Cats and dogs are safe under my watch and will be well loved.

Emily was a great fit for our family! She visited twice before to become familiar with our dogs and our home. She stayed in contact throughout our week on vacation and sent plenty of pictures of our fur babies having fun. It's apparent she loves dogs and making them feel comfortable. We arrived to a clean home with evidence that Emily worked to leave our home exactly how we left it. We would recommend Emily if you are in need of a house sitter and/or dog sitter.

Victoria is the absolute best she’s spoiled our kitty cat and doggy so much like we would!! lots of walks lots of pictures and even more importantly lots of love she is super reliable and communicative and I just am so happy I found her cannot recommend her enough!!!
