“Amber is a good person. She was flexible for pick up and drop off. Amber was in touch with us at all times, and it was very nice of her to sent us pictures and videos of our doggie. She followed our requests which were very important to us and our pet. We would definitely recommend her as a dog sitter.”
“Brayden was amazing with my year old, Jaxx! He had so much fun playing at Braydens house & you could tell he was exhausted when I got him back from having so much fun with all the other dogs!! Brayden was extremely accommodating to my difficult schedule and was always very responsive when it came to communication! I definitely recommend him for all future pet needs!! Thanks!”
About: I grew up around dogs and have been a dog Mom for almost three years now. I believe that dogs deserve a full life filled with new experiences and activities. I'm your girl if you want your pup to be active and social while you're away. I have experience caring for dogs of different temperaments and ages. Please let me know what your dog's needs are and I will accommodate you all as best I can. I understand the pain of leaving your puppy with a stranger - rest assured, I will treat your pup with as much respect and affection as my own. Please feel free to reach out to schedule a meet and greet if you would like to see if I am a good fit for your pup. I have worked remote the last few years which means your dog will rarely be without my presence during their stay. I will fit their schedule and needs in right alongside my own dog's. I have a large unfenced back yard where our dog loves to play. We are happy to crate your dog, put them on a long lead outside and do anything that makes you comfortable and assured that your pet is safe.
“Bethany was amazing with Dax! I wasn’t worried a bit while I was on my trip!! He had the best time playing with her and her pups! Highly recommend will 100% be rebooking in the future when I need someone to watch my dog!”
“Kayla and her sweet children took such good care of my dogs I think they were almost sad to return home. Lots of outdoor play and love in a family environment. Lots of pictures and updates. Dogs were cared for exactly as if they were in their own home with care taken to follow familiar routines. We look forward to using Kayla’s services again!”
“Cheri was great!! She gave Dax time to get used to her house before introducing him to her precious dog. She sent pics and updated me when I picked Dax up. I was running late and she was very gracious about that.”
“Diana and her wife did an amazing job taking care if our rambunctious babies! I let them know about how they like to eat things they shouldn't that are lying around the house and how our dog Lily likes to be an escape artist in the back yard. They took such great care of our babies that they informed me they swept up the floors thoroughly before we dropped them off and they watched them closely in the yard. Because of how well they were watching them, they were able to prevent our puppy Lily from succeeding in one of her escape attempts in their yard (she was digging up a hole, but they caught it, covered up the hole and kept her away from that side of the yard). I was able to enjoy our vacation so much more because I felt like I didn't have to worry about my babies being taken care of well. They communicated with me everyday and sent me lots of photos while we were gone. I will definitely come back to Diana and her wife when we need dog sitting for our upcoming trips.”
“Lauren is so nice! I can’t even explain how much it meant when she sent pics to me of my Sassy while I was at work. At the time, Sassy was a brand new rescue to me, so being in a strange environment worried me. Lauren has a calming demeanor and Sassy was totally at peace while in her care. I would highly suggest Lauren anytime!!!”
“I was overwhelmed knowing how great my Bella girl was taken care of. She had other dogs to play and even sleep with. I think her vacation went better than mine!! I would truly recommend Kirsten ?.”
“We had a terrific experience with Heather caring for our 2 dogs. She was quick responding to texts and sent pictures of our dogs looking very comfortable in her home. I would highly recommend Heather for pet care.”
“First off y'all are awesome!! I absolutely couldn't recommend a sitter in the area more highly. I was a little apprehensive at first because right before the big trip my boy got a UTI. Callie assured me he would be in great hands and I wouldn't have to worry about a thing. Boy was she right. I'm already looking forward to planning my next trip knowing Max will be safe and very loved!!”

“Ria has been helping with my Dog for the last year. He has special needs and instructions, and she follows them perfectly. Ria also is very caring and loving to my dog. They have a great relationship going between them. She will also send pictures when I’m away on a trip. Ria and her husband Andrei are super people. Reliable, personable, thoughtful and friendly.

“Look no further if you need a sitter for your pet, Brittany is the best in the area! She is a reliable, attentive and loving person to care for your pets in your absence. Brittany has taken great care of our dog while we were away on vacation. We came home to a very happy and healthy pooch. She not only made sure our dog ate her appropriate diet, but she also made sure that she had her daily medications. You can tell that Brittany feels very strongly about animals welfare, she made sure that our baby was safe and well cared for while we were away. Don't hesitate to book her today, you and your fur babies will not regret it!”
