“Patricia was absolutely amazing with my two boys. Bentley is quite the trouble maker and she was great with him. I loved the updates and pictures she sent me, it put my heart at ease. Very professional and great person. Came home to a clean house. I would definitely recommend her and I would have her watch my two boys again.”


“Mariah was great to have, we had her watching our dog for 2 weeks, she was great at communicating with us and we never had to worry about our dog. We knew he was in great hands!”


“Izzy took great care of our two little dogs—they took to following her around right away. She’s great with communicating, and left the house tidy and spotless. She’s very professional, and we felt comfortable enjoying our time away, knowing that our dogs were in good hands.”


“Sasha did a great job taking care of our four dogs, parrot, & home for a 15 day trip. It was the longest we have all been away at the same time. She communicated with us regularly and provided a lot of pictures. One of our dogs refuses to show himself with most sitters but Sasha was able to get him to go on walks. Our home was also in great shape, we could not have been happier with the experience.”


“Windsor was wonderful with our dog and cat> she took great care of our house and animals while we were out of town. Easy to communicate with and responds quickly. We would love to use her again!”



“Melisa was AWESOME! She took the gig on super short notice and she showed up early ready to go (or sit, as it were)! She took excellent care of our little puppy, which was confirmed via photos. Would HIGHLY recommend Melisa to anyone looking for a dog sitter. She really loves dogs and it shows!”

“Brooklyn did an amazing job with my animals and they were so comfortable with her! She was excellent at checking in and updating me about them and making sure everyone is happy. Will definitely book again!”


“Hands-down, the best cat and house sitter we ever had. Our “baby“ needs a lot of human attention, and she stepped up to the task, seldom leaving and returning promptly. She also took great care of the house and left no mess. First time we’ve been able to fully relax while traveling, knowing our Pickles was being pampered.”


“Skylar was great with my dogs! We have 7 and they aren’t the easiest to deal with but she handled them like a pro! We have medical and behavior “special needs “ pups . The dogs were well taken care of and looked great when we got home . She was even able to win over my not so friendly pit/rot mix that hates everyone. Very communicative and sent tons of pics. We will definitely hire her again ( if she’ll accepts, once may have been enough for her )”


“If you are looking for a caretaker for your pet, give Jim the opportunity to assist. Jim watched my German Shepherd, Levi, for a few days and he did a BRILLIANT job! Jim provided updates and pictures of my happy pooch! Jim did everything I asked and MORE! If you want to have someone who listens and does what is asked, look no further! I couldn't be happier with Jim's care of my very needy, Levi! I will definitely plan future getaways with Jim in the near future! OUTSTANDING! JOB WELL DONE!”


“Kaylie was awesome when watching our house and pups. We have 4 animals that all require a bunch of attention, including daily medication. She sent us daily updates and multiple pictures throughout the day which eased our anxiety of leaving the state.”


About: I’m a semi-retired registered nurse with over 10 years of home and pet sitting experience, including pets with special medical needs requiring medicine and insulin injections. I am semi-retired and I am available for daytime pet visits on my days off or around my work schedule. I am available anytime for overnight sitting. I care for the pets as the client wishes, to help maintain normalcy and reduce anxiety and stress for the pet while the client is away.

About: I have had dogs in my life since childhood. I have cared for many different sizes and breeds of dogs, including puppies and senior dogs. I have a lot of experience with senior dogs and administering medication. I have taken college courses in animal behavior and went through training courses with my own dog. I was a dog Mom to a handicapped dog for 11 years, so I definitely have the patience to deal with special needs. I also keep my nails long for those extra good belly scratches 🥰 I have a flexible, rotating work schedule that allows me to dedicate my time to caring for your pets without the distractions of my own pets, children, or home responsibilities. I'm available to stay with your furry friends as needed and can work around your schedule to ensure their needs are met. While I may need to leave for work, I will communicate openly with you about my work schedule and your pet's specific requirements in advance. If you have a high-anxiety pet or a young puppy that needs more attention, I can adjust my schedule to spend additional time at home, ensuring they receive the care and comfort they deserve. I provide loving care for your pets right in the comfort of their own home. I will keep your cats indoors unless otherwise requested, and ensure they receive exercise and plenty of attention. Dogs will be exercised according to their needs and your specific guidelines. If you’re comfortable, I’d love to take them to the park or explore scenic hiking trails together. Safety is my priority, so I will never allow your dog off-leash unless they are in a secure, fenced area and you’ve given prior approval to do so. We will enjoy daily walks with a leash and harness, unless you specify otherwise. Additionally, I will minimize contact with other dogs and animals unless you give explicit instructions to do otherwise. For those dogs that require crating, I have a spacious crate available to ensure their comfort and security. Your pets will receive all the attention and care they need while feeling safe in their familiar environment!
