“Molly was a joy to meet, we were both instantly aware she was a great fit to pet sit our 4 fur babies - 2 cats 2 dogs - she's sweet, kind, warm, with a gentle spirit and my pets were immediately attached to her - my Corgi didn't leave her side the entirety of the meet and greet(s). She has amazing attention to detail and appreciated my very long and extensive 'note' of instructions! She never hesitated to take care of everything for the entire stay, and if she had a question she reached out. My home was exactly how it was left when we returned from our vacation, and my pets very happy and content. Also she's wonderful at sending pictures of my fur babies throughout the visit. I would definitely recommend Molly as a pet / house sitter!!”
“Madison took care of our 4 pets- 2 large dogs & 2 cats while we were out of town for 5 days. One of the dogs had just had surgery and ended up being somewhat challenging with his bandage. She made sure he was taken care of and kept us up to date the whole time. She went above and beyond! We will use her in the future!”
About: I don’t have my own pet anymore as he passed from old age. I like to take care of other people’s pets when they are on vacation and care for them with as much love as if they were my own. I will stay at your home if needed , schedule potty break services as well. I work at an elementary school so let out before I go to work and right after, evenings and bed time. I will take care of pets in clients home with care plan that fits the pets needs. Give them plenty of attention and care to take away any worries when you are away.
“Kaitlyn was amazing. I had her for an overnight stay for my dog. She was very attentive and great about following my dogs regular routine/needs. She was interactive with my dog and keep me updated! Highly recommend!”
“Katie was fantastic! She came over a couple of times before staying with our cat and dog which made us feel very comfortable. Our animals loved her. Within 20 minutes of being at our house I was sent a picture of our dog giving her a big kiss. The cat who is very selective about showing himself was hanging out in the living room with her. Would highly recommend. Would definitely use her again.”
“Heather looked after my dog, Maisy, and 2 cats while I went away for 4 days. She was great!! Communication was excellent with lots of detailed updates and pictures. It was very reassuring to hear how they were making out. She walked Maisy twice a day and gave her lots of love 🥰. It’s clear she has a lot of experience with cats and dogs! You can tell she genuinely loves these pets. And to top it off, I came home to a clean house! She even took out the trash. It is so nice to know I have found a trustworthy person to come into my home and take such good care of my pets while I am away. I would highly recommend her and will definitely be using her again!!”
“Amy took very good care of my two cats. She sends pictures to me everyday which is a blessing, knowing that the kitties are doing good. She is very responsive and easy to communicate. Would recommend to everyone in need a kitty friend.”
“Derek was very responsive and very flexible with how short-notice our request was. Was willing to learn about cat asthma and how to handle it if an attack occurred, which we greatly appreciated as that was a major concern for us. Overall very chill and got some great photos!”
“Michelle was truly a lifesaver while I was away! She cared for my pets with so much love and attention it was clear from the updates and photos that they were comfortable and happy in her care. She followed all instructions perfectly and even went the extra mile to keep everything tidy. I felt completely at ease knowing they were in such good hands. I’m so grateful and wouldn’t hesitate to trust her again!”

“Amelia was great with our nervous puppy. She house sat for us and really made sure Peanut had a great time. She sent lots of pictures and videos and was great about communicating with us to coordinate everything. Peanut went from too afraid to leave her crate to sleeping snuggled up right next to her in just a day or two.”
“Johanna is honestly the best sitter I could have found! I have a 1.5 year old GSD who is a little high maintenance and he fell in love with her instantly. She treats my pets exactly as I would if I were home and I couldn’t ask for better communication from a sitter. She keeps me updated throughout her stay and sends me pictures when she arrives.”

“Liz is a wonderful sitter. I have two cats that's she spends a week with every year while I go on vacation. She feeds them according to the schedule they are on while I'm home and makes sure that the liter boxes are clean. She spends time with them everyday. I use to worry how the boys would be when I got home before and now I know I can go and not worry cause they are in good hands. Highly recommended if you want someone who cares about the animals as if they are own.”
