“This was Louis' first time watching our dogs and he was absolutely amazing. Harper is 7 and has never stayed with anyone ever in the 7 years that we have had her and Bailey is almost 10 and had 1 sitter when she was a couple years old. We plan our travels so that the dogs can come with us but unfortunately couldn't do that this time. Louis was patient and caring and a wonderful playmate for our girls. He sent pictures throughout the day and kept in great contact which I really appreciated. We will absolutely hire him next time and I will be sharing his information with my sister who needs a new sitter. ❤️”


“Amelia is the best around she is very attentive Great with my dogs. I went to a baseball tournament in Portland and my fridge broke she moved all the freezer items into the garage freezer for me and helped my friends who came to get the condiments out she is so great! Very responsive and I have already booked with her twice!”


“Adam was fantastic! His professionalism and communication were exactly what we were looking for. He listened to our detailed instructions and worked patiently with our dog for the week we were out of town. He took care of our house and our dog very well. I definitely plan on hiring him again”


“Jessica was wonderful for our house/dog and cat sitting!! She communicated wonderfully and sent cute pics and updates along the way. She even navigated a challenging situation with our dog and handled it like a pro! We will definitely be inviting her to return for another stay.”


“Jennifer is wonderful. Communicates clearly and is gentle and soft spoken with my high energy Frenchie. I can go to work knowing he is in good hands. She sends updates and pictures during her time at the house and leaves things in order. I would recommend her.”


“Ada house sitter and cared for our dog for 3 days and 2 nights. She sent several pictures each day and was a very effective communicator. My dog was happy to have her company. I will be booking her again. The house was maintained very well by Ada.”


“Addie has stayed with my two pups a few times now. They both seem well-cared for when I return. Addie's also responsive and easy to communicate with :)”


“Maria was quick to respond and kindly came over for a meet and greet. She was easy to work with and had no problem caring for our elderly dog with a few special needs, as well as our higher energy Husky! She sent updates and the visit went smoothly.”


“Llewyn did a fantastic job with Strider. Strider isn't an easy dog to watch and we were gone for 8 days..., extremely pleased that Llewyn managed to make it through. We'll definitely re-book (for shorter trips) with her.”



“Jessie took wonderful care of our two pups and cat while we were away. He communicated daily and spent a lot of time with our fur kids, who always have separation anxiety while we are gone. We would recommend using Jesse for overnight stays.”


About: I have experience with puppies, senior dogs, different sizes of dogs, and reactive dogs. I begun in the business as a groomer and from there I decided I enjoyed caring and comforting pets as well as giving pet parents peace of mind when they leave for vacation. Some things I can provide is exercise, playtime, any medication and basic needs (potty, food, water). I’m currently a graduate student so my time is very flexible. I am available on weekends and during the weekdays I can adjust my schedule when needed. I do meet and greets with the parents to determine what is best for the pet. I ask for any hazards to be removed from the homes. While out on walks, pets will always be on leash but I can provide long-line for a more “off-leash” experience where the pet can run around while still being tethered. I will only go to dog parks on request.

“Alyssa and Eve watched our dog for a week at our house while we headed out of the country on a cruise. I can’t say enough good things about this pair but will try. Most importantly our dog was loved and well cared for throughout the visit. They followed all our instructions to a tee, fed her on time, made sure she got her medicine, took her on many walks and played endless games of hide and seek and tug of war. I was very grateful for how accessible Alyssa and Eve were throughout the stay. If we ever needed to get in touch with them they were quick to reply. They sent frequent updates, videos and photos letting us know how things were going. And sometimes, things don’t go as planned and in those moments, Alyssa was quick to come up with a solution to ensure our dog was taken care of. Finally they took great care of the house and left it exactly as they found it. We are very picky when it comes to our dog sitters and are so grateful to have found this pair. We already have Alyssa booked for three future pet stays so safe to say we are fans!”


“Julia was absolutely amazing with all 6 of my babies, I have 4 cats and 2 dogs and I could really tell that she was giving them the best care while we were away! She was great at communicating and asking anything she needed to know. We will definitely be using her again!”



“Erica is an excellent communicator with good common sense (a huge compliment!). My dog liked her from the moment they met. I recommend her without reservation.”


“Sam helped us out in a pinch last-minute when we needed a sitter for the evening so we could go to a Fleet Foxes concert. He showed up early to meet the dogs and get familiar with house then kept us at ease by sending photos throughout the evening. Very respectful and responsible so we look forward to having him watch our dogs again!”


About: I worked at a zoo where I took care of reptiles birds and mammals! I have some experience in taking care of animals, from medications to trimmings to just basic feeding and bathroom breaks! I do have a kitty cat. she does get fed twice a day with her little box cleaned every 2 days and of course play time and cuddles!! Depending on the need of the animals will match what I need to do. My apartment is pet proof (cat proof) but just let me know what your animal needs and I can do it!

“Luna was absolutely amazing! I was so anxious to leave Penny with someone, but she was incredible — gave me updates throughout the stay and was respectful of her needs. She also kept my house in great shape and I felt safe having her stay with my dog. I look forward to using Luna’s services in the future and would definitely recommend her!”


“Kaylee was fabulous house/pet sitting with our 2 dogs and 4 cats for four days. Followed instructions to the ‘T’ and went above beyond; very communicative and reassuring.”


“Cierra is a great dog sitter! Excellent communication, on-time, and we appreciated the photo updates. We would not hesitate to book her services again.”


About: I have experience giving ear, eye drops, and medication. I can brush teeth, clean ears, and trim nails. I have attended service dog training and have trained my own dog. I love to walk dogs for hours per day. When I get home, I love to snuggle up with a cat and watch a movie. I incorporate playtime and training before meals. Before bed, I do a basic hygiene routine with wipes, paw balm, and teeth brushing. I will respect the rules you have for animals in your home. I will treat your animals like they were my own, with all of the respect and care.

Nicole M.
“I cannot speak highly enough of Nicole's exceptional care, knowledge, and compassion when it comes to working with dogs. With over 10 years of hands-on experience, she has a natural ability to connect with dogs of all breeds, sizes, ages and temperaments, even those with higher reactivity or special behavioral or medical needs. Whether it's a drop-in visit or an extended boarding stay, Nicole creates a calm, structured, and loving environment that helps dogs feel safe and understood. Her deep understanding of canine body language and behavior ensures that every dog in her care receives thoughtful, individualized attention. My dogs are usually nervous and reactive around new people, but they took to her instantly. A true testament to her experience and energy. She communicates clearly, sends regular updates, and always goes the extra mile to make sure both pets and pet parents feel at ease. If you're looking for someone you can trust completely with your furry family member, look no further. Nicole is the real deal! Dedicated, responsible, and truly passionate about what she does. Your dog will be in the best hands!”
