“We had an outstanding experience with Kitt! She stayed in our home for a full week while we were on vacation and took amazing care of our two Westies. Her communication was excellent—she checked in every day with updates and adorable puppy photos. We came home to two happy pups and a spotless house. She was reliable, kind, and genuinely caring. We would absolutely book Kitt again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy sitter!”

About: I've had my own pets since I was a child (0ver 40 years) and have also fostered dogs through capital area humane society for years. I currently walk an older couples dog weekly to ensure she gets out and some exercise each week. I work from home and can take multiple breaks to walk away throughout the day. I love being outdoors and going for walks in any type of weather. Rain is something I try to avoid. I am free to work remotely from any location if you happen to need a pet sitter in home or multiple check ins throughout a specific time period.
“Katie is a great dog sitter! Our pups took to her immediately when they met her. She kept us posted daily as to their well-being while we were out, and followed instructions to the letter. She asked us questions about their care if she was uncertain, and even about other things she noticed around the house that she could help with. I highly recommend Katie and know we will call on her again in the future!”

“Chris has watched Sadie 2 times now, he has taken excellent care of our home and our very anxious old lady. He’s very enjoyable person to chat with as well and made us feel very comfortable entrusting him. 10/10 would recommend and will continue to use him exclusively if his schedule permits it.”

About: After our dog crossed the rainbow bridge at nearly 14 years old, my spouse, Randy and I, have loved caring for family pets intermittently. Being retired has opened up more time to share our love with your dog(s)! Retired couple. Our ranch home is pet friendly with sliding patio door for our fenced yard access. I am a nurse so also comfortable giving medications. We love walking dogs we care for if desired twice per day. We have a fenced yard with trail access for walking dogs if desired twice per day. Dogs are welcome on furniture if allowed at your home. We keep dog towels by our patio access for paw wiping.
“Angela was absolutely amazing with our dogs! We are so happy we found her. She was very professional and had a meet and greet with us before dog sitting for us for a few days. The dogs loved her right away and they’re always a good judge of character! We trusted Angela and she didn’t disappoint. She provided regular updates and pictures. When we came home the dogs were happy and well taken care of. She even left us with a couple adorable polaroids of our pups! We can’t wait to have her care for our babies again- we know they probably can’t wait either! Thank you so much Angela you are the BEST!”

“Absolutely phenomenal sitter and we will 100% ask her to look after our kitty again. She loved her just as much as we do and we can’t be more thankful. She was a great houseguest and she was a great sitter.”

“If I could give Malena 10 stars, I would! We had to leave our "quirky" senior dog with medical needs during a two week trip we had planned overseas. She got quite sick two years ago and we thought the chances she would still be with us this year were unfortunately pretty slim, so we went ahead and booked our trip. She fooled us and is doing quite well for a blind, almost-deaf, diabetic dog! :) Malena stayed at our house for two weeks and didn't blink an eye at Daisy's quirks or special needs. It is hard to explain these quirks without sounding like we are crazy dog owners (which maybe we are), but Malena was very receptive when we explained and was interested in how Daisy likes to do things to make sure she was comfortable. Malena was a life saver and really gave us the peace of mind to enjoy our trip. She sent updates and Daisy's tail was always up in the pictures (a very good sign). Everything seemed to go amazingly well!! When we got home, Daisy was so calm and relaxed...almost like we were hardly gone...and the house looked great! Also, our flight was delayed due to weather and Malena went out of her way to make sure Daisy was set until we got home. I have zero complaints and it was wonderful to be able to enjoy this trip over a year in the making without stressing about how Daisy was doing! We would love to have Malena back to watch Daisy whenever she is available!!!”

About: I grew up with dogs and have taken care of them until they were old. I am good with pets loving and stern.I will care for all animals like they are mine. I currently have a part time job where I work in the mornings. I am usually free after 3 and early mornings. I have plenty of free time now that it is summer. I have a fenced in yard where your dog can run. I have a dog friendly house where they can’t get in to anything that may hurt them. I can keep them company and provide toys as well.
About: I’ve been pet-sitting for over 10 years and truly love caring for animals of all kinds. From energetic puppies to independent cats, I take time to learn each pet’s personality and routine so they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and always make sure pets get the attention, playtime, and cuddles they deserve. You can count on me to treat your pets like my own, because they deserve nothing less. Pet care fits naturally into my week because I treat it like a true commitment. I maintain a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets focused, reliable attention at the times they need it most. Communication and consistency are always part of my routine. When I’m in a client’s home, I provide structured, dependable care. I follow your pet’s schedule exactly, mealtimes, walks, medications, and play, and make sure they’re relaxed and content. I’m attentive to detail, respectful of your space, and committed to open communication so you always know your pet is in good hands. When it comes to house sitting, I prefer not to stay over nights. I can do several drop ins through out the day. Depending on the need.
“Lindsay was wonderful with our dogs! She communicated with us a lot and sent a bunch of pictures. She even helped them feel better when there were a lot of fireworks while we were gone! She made sure they still ate and kept them company. Highly recommend Lindsay and we will be using her again!”

About: I have had my own dog since I was 8 and taken care of other family and friends’ dog throughout my life. They have relied on my to feed, walk, and watch their pets while they are gone. I currently work from home, so I would be available at different times throughout the week depending on my schedule but most times during the week. I am currently living in an apartment with two kittens. This building allows animals and there are big open grass area for dogs as well as a walking trail nearby.
