“Thank you so much Diego for taking care of the girls. Without your help, I would not have been able to take the very important trip. Gertie and Gretchen will definitely miss having you here with them!”
“Nicole was absolutely fantastic! She took great care of our two dogs and cat. Our younger dog had a tough couple of days of separation anxiety after we left, and she did an incredible job helping her get through it. We'd love to have Nicole watch our babies again!”
“Ariel was great! We did a one-night stay and Ariel was timely and communicative. Came home to a happy pup and clean home, which was great after a trip! Thank you Ariel 😊”
“Elsbeth was fantastic. She was professional, yet caring, quick to respond, sent photos and updates and was attentive with any changes in my pups. I was at ease during my trip which we all know can make or break our time away. I highly recommend her to care for your furry loved ones and I will certainly book her again! I'm already planning my next trip.”
“Ya Lun was absolutely lovely to work with and she was so great with my Lacey. She was very communicative and made sure my girl got all the care she needed. I highly recommend her!”
“Mark was amazing with our dog, going above and beyond with him when we were out of town. We have a high energy dog and mark took him on several long walks. He was really great about sending photos too! And he took great care of our cat , checking on her multiple times . We look forward to working with him again soon!”
“Nichole was amazing! Great communication and gave us plenty of pics while we were gone to let us know our pups were well taken care of. We’d definitely like to have her be our regular sitter.”
“Jessica and Ernie ? were SO GREAT for our boys and great to our home. We got pictures and lots of updates. She left the house spotless and went above and beyond to keep everything in our boys' world as business as usual as possible while we were away. We know when we take a longer trip they'll be in great hands! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“Carrie is an absolute diamond of a human being, and a true friend to our cat Lucy and puppy Kilo. She went above and beyond to be available during an uncertain and long period of time, coordinate with family and neighbors when we couldn’t be there, and leave the house in amazing condition. She’s kind and willing to work with a young dog who has a lot of energy to burn, and we are grateful that she understood our situation as a military family. Absolutely will come to her first when we and our furry kids need a hand! Thank you!! 🐾🤩”
About: I’ve had the joy of caring for two dogs and one cat throughout my life, each with their own unique personality and needs. My dog, Wally, has medical issues that require daily medication, so I’m comfortable handling that kind of responsibility with care and attention. My experience includes feeding, bathing, walking, playing, and creating a safe, loving environment for both dogs and cats. What sets me apart is my lifelong love for animals and my firsthand experience as a dedicated pet owner. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your pet, and I treat every animal like my own—with patience, respect, and lots of affection. Whether your pet is active and playful or prefers a quiet cuddle, I’m happy to adapt to their needs. Right now, I have a very open and flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time and attention to pet care. I don’t have a rigid routine and can easily adapt to your pet’s needs, whether that means early morning walks, midday visits, or overnight stays. I’m able to provide consistent care and companionship without distractions, and I love being able to focus fully on making sure pets feel safe, happy, and well cared for. My goal is always to stick as closely as possible to your pet’s usual routine so they feel comfortable while you're away. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I treat both the animals and the space with the utmost respect. I always follow the pet’s usual routine closely (feeding, walks, medication, and playtime) to help them feel safe and comfortable while you're away. I’m a very clean and tidy person, and I always leave the home exactly as I found it. I make sure not to disturb anything unnecessarily and take care to clean up after both myself and the pet. My goal is for you to come home to a happy pet and a home that looks untouched, just the way you left it!
“Natalie was excellent! She went above and beyond to make sure my dogs weren’t left alone too long when I had a wonky travel schedule, and she was great at communicating about everything my pups were up to. I definitely recommend her!”
“Elisa is amazing. She kept my hyper puppy occupied and tired out. She also left my home cleaner than it was when I left. She sent pictures and provided tons of updates. I highly recommend her.”
“We’ve used Rachel a few times for both dog walking and house sitting. Our two dogs absolutely love her! Rachel was great about sending us photos and updates on the dogs. It really made us feel that our dogs were in good hands and being well taken care of. Would definitely book Rachel again and highly recommend.”
“Christina is amazing! I would highly recommend her to anyone. She is kind, warm, responsible, a fantastic communicator… the list goes on. My family was away for a week from our elderly sick pup and our newer pup and she not only handled it well - she probably did better than we do! We will use her again and hope to see her again just because she’s that great!”
“Carly house and cat sat for my 2 kitties for a FULL MONTH! She was an absolute lifesaver. I came home to 2 happy cats and a house that was cleaner than when I left it. 10/10 recommend!”

Kristy is the best with my two boys and they just love her! She is a total cat person and really understands their little personalities. She was great giving Jax his meds, which he can sometimes be a handful. She took such good care of my house too, while I was away and followed all instructions to a T! I received twice daily updates with pics, which allowed me to relax and enjoy my vacation. I can’t say enough about Kristy and will definitely book her again!!
Angela did a wonderful job watching Peppa!! I felt really comfortable knowing that she was home with her while I was out of the country. On the day I was set to leave, Peppa woke up with an upset stomach and diarrhea. I was nervous to leave her, but Angela was well equipped with prior experience in a situation like this. She made sure Peppa felt comfortable and took her out as much as she needed. Very happy to say that Peppa had no accidents in the house and her diarrhea spell was over very quickly. Would definitely recommend Angela to anyone needing someone caring to watch their pets! :)
Natalie took such great care of my pups! I can tell how well they were taken care of once I’ve returned from a trip based their behavior… while my pups were happy to see me, they weren’t desperate for my attention when I returned. That is the indicator of how well they were cared for! Natalie communicated well, asked questions when she needed and made sure to follow the rules of the house to keep my pups out of trouble! Thank you Natalie!
Madison was AWESOME with both of our pups! We were out of state for our wedding, which was already stressful, but thanks to Madison, there was no extra stress for us or our pups! She sent daily updates/photos & both of our pups loved soaking up all the snuggles with her. She cleaned/tidied up our home prior to leaving and left it exactly the way (if not better) than we left it. We will definitely book Madison again for our next trip!
First class on every way. Daisy “approved” of her from the start and they got along famously. Requests for feeding, walking, and medicating were followed carefully and with good judgment. Yes, Mandy will be called first next time Daisy needs an in house sitter.
Nora is so wonderful! She house sat for us and our pup was extremely loved and taken care of! We came back to a clean home, got frequent check ins and updates while we were away, she was great about communication and meeting us before we left to go over everything. We’ll definitely use her in the future!
Ya Lun watched our dog while we went away for the weekend. We came back to a happy and healthy dog. She communicated with us the whole trip and provided pictures of our dog while we were away! We look forward to booking her again knowing our dog will be in safe and caring hands.
Katie was wonderful and took such good care of our babies! We felt totally comfortable with her in our home and she was very respectful with it but of course the number one thing being care of our dogs and she was terrific. I’m already going to book her for another trip we’re planning.
We are so happy we found Ben! Ben house sat our 2 year old pup while we were out of town. He kept Riggs happy and safe until our return. He provided us with updates and made sure he had his daily exercise. Ben treated our home just as well as he treated our pup. Ben exceeded our expectations and we would happily have him care for Riggs in the future.
