Breanna did such an amazing job with my 3 large dogs. Our dogs aren’t the easiest and only like to stay in an environment they know, so she watched them at our house, which we greatly appreciated. Breanna kept us updated through out the whole stay with constant pics and videos. Our one dog had an upset stomach while she was there due to her food and Breanna took care of her and also cleaned up after her. Breanna even took our dogs on walks together which I was very impressed by bc walking just one can be a lot. Grateful and pleased is an understatement. We were able to enjoy our trip knowing our fur babies were in the best hands. Bonus she even cleaned our house which wasn’t expected. We are having Breanna watch our dogs for another trip we have planned later this month and for any other dog sitting needs. She is the best and can’t recommend enough!

About: I’ve cared for plenty dogs and cats over the years, helping family, friends, and neighbors with feeding, walks, playtime, distributing medication, potty breaks, and check-ins. I even have my own love baby . I’m very patient, attentive, dependable. I only accept bookings on days when I’m completely available, allowing me to dedicate my full attention to your pet. I plan my schedule around each booking so your pet receives consistent care, companionship, playtime, and attention. Your pet’s safety and comfort always come first. I follow your instructions and routines, keep a close eye on your pet, and treat your home with the same and or even better respect I would my own. I’ll also provide updates and pictures so you can feel confident while you’re away.

About: Hi! I'm a lifelong animal lover and was the proud pet parent of a Yorkie-Poodle named Jazz, who was my best friend and companion for 15 wonderful years. Saying goodbye to him in 2019 was one of the hardest things I've ever experienced, but caring for him taught me that every pet has their own unique personality, routine, and needs—and that they deserve to be treated with patience, kindness, and love. Professionally, I own a client-focused business where trust, reliability, and attention to detail are essential every day. Those same qualities carry over into the way I care for pets. I understand that inviting someone into your home and trusting them with a beloved family member is a big decision, and I don't take that responsibility lightly. I provide dog walks and drop-in visits in your home, where your pet can remain comfortable in the environment they know and love. Before our first visit, I take the time to learn about your pet's routine, personality, preferences, favorite activities, and any special instructions so I can provide care that's tailored to their individual needs. During each visit, I'll carefully follow your instructions for feeding, fresh water, potty breaks, walks, exercise, playtime, and any other care your pet needs. Whether your pet enjoys an energetic walk, a favorite toy, quiet companionship, or simply extra affection, my goal is to make them feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you're away. I believe consistency is important, so I strive to keep your pet's normal routine as uninterrupted as possible. I'll always ensure your pet's safety and well-being by paying close attention to their behavior and surroundings, while treating your home with the same care and respect I would expect in my own. Communication is just as important as great pet care, so you'll receive updates and photos after each visit, giving you peace of mind while you're away. I do not offer overnight stays, and medication requests are considered on a case-by-case basis to ensure I can safely meet your pet's needs. My goal is simple: to provide dependable, compassionate care so your pet feels loved, comfortable, and secure, while giving you complete confidence that they're in caring, trustworthy hands. I look forward to meeting you and providing your beloved companion the same kindness, patience, and unconditional love that made my 15 years with Jazz so special. Pet care is something I intentionally build into my weekly routine. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to provide dependable drop-in visits and dog walks while balancing my other professional responsibilities. I carefully schedule each visit so every pet receives the time, attention, companionship, exercise, and consistency they deserve. My goal is to make sure both pets and their owners feel comfortable, cared for, and confident while they're apart. Because I provide care in my clients' homes, my goal is to help pets feel safe, comfortable, and secure in the environment they know best. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and preferences, so I take the time to carefully follow each owner's instructions regarding feeding, walks, potty breaks, playtime, and any other special requests. Safety is always my top priority. I make sure doors, gates, collars, harnesses, and leashes are secure before every walk, and I remain attentive to my surroundings to help keep pets safe. I also pay close attention to each pet's body language and comfort level, allowing them to build trust with me at their own pace. As a small business owner, I understand the importance of professionalism, reliability, and respecting my clients' homes. I will treat your home with the same care and respect I would expect in my own, leaving it just as I found it. I believe communication is just as important as great pet care, so I'll provide updates and photos during my visits to give you peace of mind while you're away. My goal is for every pet to feel loved, cared for, and comfortable, and for every pet parent to feel confident knowing their furry family member is in dependable, compassionate hands.

Superb sitter that provides excellent communication and updates throughout the stay. We received many pictures throughout the day. During our first meeting we felt more than comfortable leaving our sweet girl to her care. Ashley is the best sitter we have ever used. We will be planning our vacations around Ashley’s availability as we will never use anyone else. ❤️

Karina has house sat for me/my pets three times now and each time has been great. She is very respectful of my home and the animals seem to love her. She sends pics daily along with little updates and doesn’t get annoyed by even the neediest creatures (my cat and dog want attention 24/7). I will continue to use her for my pet sitting services in the future!

About: I adopted my first dog (Koda) a little over 6 years ago when he was just a puppy. Raising him alone, I’ve gained much experience with potty training, leash pulling, social interactions, etc. He is friendly with other dogs, cats and children. We are an active household, so getting out and about is always a goal of ours, whether it be going for a hike through the woods, the dog park, swimming or just a simple walk through the neighborhood. I’m willing to accommodate the needs of your dog and personal exercise preferences during your pup’ stay. I work from home full time so your dog/cat will have supervision 24/7 along with a comfortable bed to sleep/rest in and frequent potty breaks. I’d like to note that if you request boarding in your home for overnights, I may need to bring my dog Koda (depending on dates of service) with me as well while I stay to watch your pet. He is friendly and fine with all breeds, gender and sizes. I work full time from home so am available for 24/7 supervision. My job is very accommodating so I am able to get up periodically throughout the day to take care of your pets needs. Play time, potty breaks, all of the above! I have one friendly dog about 6.5 years old. He would love to have a playmate to hangout with! I take koda outside 3-4 times a day for potty breaks and am able and willing to accomade your pets needs however that may be.

Casie was a perfect house-sitter and weekend pal for my dog! Very responsive, sent lots of pics, kept my mind at ease while away, and left my house in perfect condition. I especially appreciated that she knows and appreciates the pitbull breed to help ease any concerns I may have about my dog’s quirks. Would absolutely book again in the future!

We truly couldn’t have asked for a better house cat sitter. Victoria was incredibly patient, knowledgeable, and dependable, and went above and beyond in every way. Our cat normally will be distant, aloof and slow to trust, yet he warmed up to Victoria remarkably fast—something that almost never happens. Her calm, intuitive, and genuinely caring approach made all the difference. I was truly amazed witnessing the bond the two created with each other. We came home to a happy, relaxed cat and a perfectly cared-for home, which speaks volumes. Having someone this trustworthy and attentive gave us complete peace of mind. She is very pleasant to converse with when giving daily updates. We would book her again in a heartbeat and recommend her without hesitation.

Areatha was great with my cat, Agatha. She sent photos and videos almost every day so I knew that Agatha was being well taken care of. She was very responsive to all my messages before and during the sit. When my flight home was cancelled and I had to take a flight the next day, Areatha was great about watching Agatha one more day. I highly recommend her.
