“We loved having Tiffany as our house sitter while on vacation this past week! She is always so attentive to our pups and makes a huge effort to care for them when we are gone. I love when she texts us pictures to show how they are doing. We love Tiffany!”


“Erica was prompt with all communication and I’m pretty sure my home is cleaner than I left it. I appreciated her frequent updates, especially considering our dog can be a handful. I’m glad to have found a trustworthy sitter who is willing to care for our pet in our own home. We’ve already booked her again!”


“Lauren was amazing and took great care of our two pups. She kept us updated on them the entire time we were gone. We’ll definitely be looking to her for future care!”


“It's difficult to know who you can trust to care for your animals when you aren't home. For us, it's also been a concern knowing who we can have watch our very senior dog, Kingston. Kelley has been a trusted caregiver for us three times now and I am so grateful to her for being willing to stay in our home and watch the "babies" when we're away.”


“Barbara was wonderful!!! Right before we left on our trip, Luke was diagnosed with Pancreatitis and a UTI. Barbara still agreed to come and stay with him. So, in addition to his seizure medicine, she gave him additional medicine for his recent diagnosis. Barbara texted me at least twice a day and sent pictures. Luke was happy and eating again. We were SO PLEASED with the care she gave Luke and will definitely call on her again.”

About: Hi! I'm a lifelong pet lover with years of experience caring for my own dogs and cats. I offer walking, sitting, and overnight stays with lots of love and attention. I’m reliable, gentle, and treat every pet like my own. Whether it’s a walk or a weekend stay, your pet will be safe, happy, and well cared for! I have a part-time job with a flexible schedule, so I’m able to plan my days around pet care. This gives me plenty of time for walks, playtime, and overnight stays throughout the week. I follow your pet’s routine closely to keep them safe and comfortable. In your home, I respect your space and stick to all care instructions. At my home, pets can enjoy a large yard and a small fenced area for safe outdoor time. Their safety, comfort, and happiness are always my top priorities.

“Stella is phenomenal. We’d rate her ten stars if we could. We have been looking for an excellent dog caretaker for 10 months now and have been let down in the past. Stella exceeded all of our expectations. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for a highly skilled, proactive and caring person to watch their 4 legged loved ones. Thank you Stella!”


About: I been around dogs and cats my whole life. I been housesitting for family and friends for the last 5-6years. My grandmother’s pets are on a strict schedule, and diet therefore I understand strict diet. I’ve worked on a farm so I have experience with farm animals, small pets, and some exotic animals. In the last two years, I’ve had two sets of puppies so I know what it takes to care of puppies. My Roxy was 13 year old when we had to put her down from old age, so I know what it takes to care for a senior dog. I’m currently not working, therefore I have plenty of time to cuddle, play and care with your pets. I can send pictures and/or videos thought your vacation for peace of mind! I like taking care of pets in their own house to make them feel as safe as possible. I will follow any rules or instructions you have for your house and pets.

“Shannon did an AMAZING job taking care of our pets (and home!) In our absence. We returned to happy fur babies, a clean home, and a few thoughtful surprises as well. We'll certainly be reaching out again next time we are traveling!”
