“Julia was absolutely fantastic and taking care of both of my dogs while I was at work. She texted me and gave me updates with the funniest pictures of my dogs. She was very responsive and communicative. I will definitely be booking in the future!”


“It’s been a very nice experience to have Leila walk Henri. She’s been very loving and kind towards Henri. Very punctual and very thoughtful. A great find. Leila is very respectful of my needs and she’s very compliant to all instructions. I thoroughly appreciate her and recommend her to all dog lovers and owners.”



“We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter than David! From the moment he met our dogs, they bonded with him instantly and were genuinely excited to see him each day while we were away. David’s communication was outstanding—he kept us consistently updated with messages and photos, which gave us great peace of mind. It was clear he genuinely cared for our dogs and made sure they felt loved and comfortable in our absence. He also treated our home with great respect and care, as if it were his own. We highly recommend David to anyone looking for a reliable, kind, and professional sitter. We will definitely be reaching out to him again in the future!”


“Danielle is a great sitter! Even though we organized our stay kind of last-minute, we were able to get in a meet and greet, and she instinctively knows all the right questions to ask to make sure your visit is worthwhile! She provided great updates and photos during the stay too, which is the most relieving part. Danielle was not only a great choice to check in on our cat Trebek, it is great to have someone check on the house while away. We hope to work with Danielle again and will definitely be going to her first for our needs!”

“Merritt stepped in last minute to watch Cricket and took such good care of her! They gave Cricket her meds and checked her water and litter daily while giving her lots of love and snugs. Merritt’s reports on Cricket were incredibly thorough which set our minds at ease. Will use Merritt again for any trip we take, for sure!”


About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life, and have taken my own dog to puppy training courses. I have dog-sat and cat-sat many times in the past for friends and neighbors, and I am very comfortable around new animals. I currently work from home Monday, Tuesday, and Friday. These week days and the weekends I am available for stop-ins and walks throughout the day. I understand that every animal is unique and will require different levels of care. I will follow your instructions to make sure your pet is happy and well taken care of during my visits!

“We can always rely on Jess to come check in on our cat when we are out of town. She consistently goes above and beyond to take care of Gwen as well as our house. Highly recommend!”


About: I've had pets for over 15 years as an adult and pets growing up as well. While mostly dogs, I also have a couple cats that are about 12 years old with our other two dogs. One dog has megaesophagus, which requires daily care and attention. I've been through obedience training with multiple dogs with specific focus on positive reinforcement. We believe in crate training, in at least ensuring pups are able to feel safe and comfortable while crated. Currently off work and trying to use my passion for animals to help others care for their furry ones. Because of my open availability, I can be flexible depending on your needs and schedule. My main philosophy with pets are they are apart of the family. They have feelings and needs just like everyone else in the home. So I try to make sure I provide my pets with the correct nutrition with their food and keep them from eating things they are not supposed to. Keep them groomed and brushed. Ensure they have access to fresh water. Reward with treats for good behavior.
