“Leah was more than a dream come true for me. My dogs gravitated towards her and she was very thoughtful and thorough with her care. I couldn’t ask for more from her. Leah sent many photos and videos and made sure to help even my anxieties. So fortunate to have found Leah!”
“Highly, highly recommend! Denise is a caring animal lover with heaps of experience from all her work at the animal humane. My rescue felt comfortable with her very quickly and was well cared for during the week+ that I was away. On top of that, my house was in great condition when I got back. Thanks, Denise, for the daily photos, clear communication, and for being so great at what you do!”
“Very communicative and easy to get ahold of. They were able to extend out stay last minute due to a funeral, which we (and the dogs!) really appreciated. House looks great on return and dogs are well cared for. Our go-to family for dog sitting.”
“My dogs and I loved having Lauren stay with them. She is observant and trustworthy. I can tell how they connect with her that they felt at home with her. My 2 large dogs are high energy and talkative. They have been difficult to manage for friends and family in the past. Lauren was able to communicate with them and set firm boundaries. I really appreciated having her stay, spend time with them, and know they were safe and loved with her.”
About: Animals are a large part of my life and I enjoy taking care of each one and their particular needs. I have a wide range of experience from livestock to feathered friends and love them all! I am comfortable administering medication, grooming, playing, and loving on indoor and outdoor animals of all ages. I am attentive to detail and will make sure your pets and home are taking care of to the highest degree. Please reach out with any questions and I look forward to giving you peace of mind while you are away. I'm currently on summer vacation, so I will have plenty of time to give your pets attention and love! I am available to drop in for a visit or stay at your home. If I am already booked for a house stay, no worries, I can still check in on your pets! I can send lots of photos and videos to give peace of mind. Your pets will receive the highest quality of care, and I am happy to follow any special instructions for each and every one. I guarantee a save environment and happy animals!
“Colby was an excellent pet sitter! Enjoyable to meet, thoughtful, attentive, responsible. Very sweet with my animals. Sent regular photos and updates and was available for an extra night when I had a flight issue. I highly recommend Colby!”
About: I’ve been trusted to care for elderly dogs that need medication, to the littles still in potty training. I will follow whatever instructions are left to give the best care. Even if your baby needs their food “cooked” on the stove or need to be tucked in for a story. I’ve raised two dogs of my own and one cat, all who love to play. Ex-teacher on summer break so my schedule is open. I will be starting school in the fall so scheduling will change but I can easily be flexible and respond quickly. I can accommodate crating, open, yards, going for walks, etc. I aim to give your pet consistency so they are safe and comfortable when in my care.
“Madison was wonderful! Really sweet and made us feel at ease by keeping us posted with photos of our pups. We felt our home was well taken care of while we were away and can’t recommend her enough!”
“Juan did a great job with our boy. We got updates and pictures and he was very responsive to any messages we sent while we were away. Took great care of the house as well!”
“As always, Ava takes great care of my Tallulah & Dennis. Always prompt and arrives when she says. I’m so appreciative of the great care she gives my 2. Especially my Dennis who doesn’t really like anyone but me. She provides regular updates and communicates often. I’m so appreciative and grateful. She is a blessing.”
“This is our second time using Alexus and she did not disappoint, yet again! She’s so diligent and attentive to our pups every need and more. She goes above and beyond to make sure our dogs don’t even miss us while we are away! She stays on schedule so they don’t feel a change in routine. We are so grateful for her! She is the best and I highly recommend her for loving your fur babies while away. Thank you million’s Alexus!”
“Love Martina, she communicates well and takes good care of the dogs. This is the 3rd or 4th time I have used her. She is awesome, thank you for taking care of my home and the dogs”
“Jackson did a terrific job sitting with my dog while I was on a two week road trip. I came back to find Shakti healthy and happy, and my house in great shape. I would not hesitate to recommend Jackson!”
“Abigail took excellent care of Simba during our time away. She sent us picture updates and was communicative. We returned to a clean home and a happy pup. Would definitely have her again to watch our sweet Simba. Thank you Abigail!”
“Ethanee did a great job caring for my dog and cat while I was away. I booked her twice and my animals were happy and well cared for when I returned home to them. I will definitely book her again!”
“We got our dog's cancer diagnosis shortly before Amber was scheduled to dog/house sit for us, so my anxiety was at an all time high. Amber provided detailed updates with photos and eased my anxiety greatly. The pups even liked her enough to sleep in bed with her where normally they keep their distance! We will absolutely use Amber in the future!”
“Hoss is amazing!!! They were available on unreasonably short notice when the original sitter I had booked randomly disappeared. Our dogs were obsessed with Hoss from the first moment, and I have no doubt our precious ones felt safe and cared for the entire time. On top of looking after two finicky pups (one is elderly and requires medication, one is shy and stubborn, and they are both bratty), they took great care of our home and made sure to send us updates, even going out of their way to hand feed our little girl her kibbles when she went on hunger strike because of our absence. Hoss is attentive and understanding, a true animal lover. And to top it all off they have a great personality, radiating kindness and fun energy. We would be lucky to have them sit for us again. 10/10 highly recommend.”

Denise was wonderful with our pets! She was always on time, very responsive, and took great care of everyone while we were away. She kept us updated throughout her stay, which gave us a lot of peace of mind. Our pets warmed up to her quickly, and it was clear they were comfortable in her care. We would happily book Denise again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter.
Greg provided outstanding service for our four dogs and watching and caring for our home while we were gone. He provided frequent updates and pics, and our doggies did well with him. Our house was pristine When we returned. We highly recommend him for all your pet needs!
Larkin was great at communicating and taking care of my kitten! She’s very friendly and took great care of our house as well. My kitten, who is often skittish around new people, was super comfortable with her and seemed content when I got home. So glad to have found such a responsible and kind person to hangout with my pet!
Rose is tremendous. she is sweet and the dog and 3 cats love her. She is responsible and respectful of staying in someone else's home. I am an anxious pet mama and really didn't worry at all with her in charge. she sent tons of great pictures and updates. I have already reserved her for 2 more stays, so happy to have her on our team.
We had an absolutely amazing experience with our house and pet sitter! She stayed in our home and took such great care of everything. She even left the house exactly how we left it—if not better. We have three dogs (both large and small) and two cats, all ranging from young to elderly, and she handled all of their unique needs so well. She administered medications properly and made sure every pet was comfortable, safe, and happy. She adapted to what my pets needed to feel comfortable at night which I think is amazing! Honestly, I think our animals were more excited to see her than they were to see us when we got home—they were hoping it was her walking through the door! That says everything. She was also very proactive, reaching out ahead of time to gather all the necessary information and ensure everything went smoothly. Her communication throughout was outstanding—very detailed, consistent, and reassuring while we were away. We would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, and genuinely caring.
Jennifer is great! She is reliable, punctual, and trustworthy. Most importantly, she took great care of my two little dogs; she sent daily photos and updates, which was very reassuring. I didn't worry about a thing while on my trip. I will hire her again and I highly recommend her!
