“Jaelyn was absolutely amazing! My dogs were so well taken care of. My home looked immaculate. She was very responsive and sent me constant updates. I can tell my babies were loved and spoiled while we were away. I will absolutely book Jaelyn again.”

About: Hi! I'm Christina. I'm married and have a dog, two cats, and an African Grey Parrot. I work remotely, I love to travel, and I love animals, so I'm happy to find a way to combine all three! I work remotely for a bank as a Technical Writer. When I'm not doing that, I love to read and travel. A few years ago, I did a solo cruise to Alaska, and it was probably one of the best trips of my life. Whale watching was something on my bucket list, and I was really excited that the stars aligned for the opportunity to do that on my birthday. My parents have lived on a farm for about 16 years now, so I have a lot of experience with farm life and caring for chickens, guineas, goats, fish, and livestock guardian dogs. Along with my experience owning dogs, cats, and parrots. If you think we would be a good fit, please feel free to reach out, and I'm happy to chat more! I work from home, so my schedule is very flexible which allows me the ability to work around your needs for pet sitting/walking. I'm happy to talk further about specific needs. I would follow instructions of the pet owner - supervised backyard play, on-leash walks, etc. I always provide updates at each check-in and include photos.

About: I have taken care of dogs and cats all my life, recently I have fostered several puppies until they were old enough for adoption. I have experience with dogs of all size and am used to walking dogs that pull on the leash :) I have stayed in others homes over night and have had dogs in my home while their family was away! I am currently working part time and make the schedule for my company so I can typically work around any schedule, however scheduling a sitting a week prior is preferred. If I am working it is typically 3:00 pm - 9:00 pm. I have a large fenced in backyard and a 6 year old dog who is very friendly and has never had any issues with pups who have come to stay with us in the past! My neighborhood has plenty of walking trails that are shaded for days that are hot.
“Michael is engaging , warm and super loving of our German Shepherd Charlie. He did a pre-visit a s right away connected and played. Michael is super responsive and provided thoughtful updates and some great pics too. We will definitely work with him again! Fantastic and trustworthy!”

“Karleen was an awesome sitter! Bo and Winston had so much fun with her and she gave a lot of updates throughout the weekend. Will definitely be using her in the future!”

“Grace did an amazing job with our girls and followed all of the directions we left for her! She came at the agreed upon times and made sure they were fed, watered, and pottied! She also sent pictures everyday and gave little updates! She also went above and beyond and brought in our mail and packages in, even though I didn’t ask her too! I completely recommend Grace!”

“Bret was very thorough from the start, asking detailed questions to make sure it was a good fit for both him and our dogs. It’s clear he likes to be well prepared and understand everything upfront. While we were away, our dogs were very well cared for and we received regular updates, which we appreciated. We also came home to a spotless house. Overall, we had a great experience and would absolutely reach out again!”
“Kellie is great!! She is outstanding with my girl and her sitting truly shows how my she cares. Kellie is very communicative and tentative to my pet and my home. I will always hope to book Kellie for all of my pets needs!”

“Trystan did amazing! Our previous sitter canceled last minute and she was very accommodating! We got tons of pictures throughout her stay and she even let us know when she was coming and going. She left the house even cleaner than when we left! Will 100% use her again!”

“Karyna was amazing to our fur babies! She house sat and cared for our 3 year old and 16 year old pups like they were her own. She sent us updates and pics/videos of them while we were on vacation and it was much appreciated! Karyna left our house tidy when she left. Thank you!!!!!!”

“India is truly the most amazing dog sitter we’ve ever had the pleasure of working with! Her attention and care is readily apparent in how she takes care of your pups like they are her own.”

“Abigail was great! She provided updates throughout the day along with pictures and even video! She took care of our pup and home like it was her own. Thank you for a great visit!”
About: We’re two best friends eager to care for your babies! We are great with dogs and cats, but also have experience with exotic animals. Aaron worked as a full time animal caretaker at Pet Supplies Plus and worked closely with small animals, reptiles and fish. As for our own home, we have 7 babies that get our full attention daily. We have two pit mixes, four cats, and a ball python. Our daily routine is to feed, play, cuddle and engage as much as possible with our babies. We always make sure their needs are met and we promise to love and care for yours in the same way we do for our own furry/scaled children. In addition to our own pets, we enjoy taking care of and helping out family members and friends with their pet needs. We have cared for hyperactive puppies (and some adults that haven’t grown out of it lol), senior dogs that need a lot of patience and help with their physical activity and potty/bladder needs, and plenty of cats that we love to work with and ensure they receive patience with socialization. We have a fairly flexible and open schedule and love to organize a daily routine! Aaron is primarily available on the weekdays and Denny is available on the weekends. We are happy to send available times or be given times and work with you to ensure timely care for your babies :) We have a huge fenced in yard on our property that our dogs love to play in and explore. We have worked on crate training for our dogs for while we’re away and frequently take them on walks while we’re home. They love to socialize with one another, our cats and us! Our cats are also super loving and enjoy their cat trees, their litter robot and getting to free roam around our house. All of our pets are also huge cuddle bugs!

“Jill is AMAZING! Our pup has pretty severe separation anxiety and is shy around new people, so we were a little nervous to leave her with a sitter for the first time. Turns out we had nothing to worry about — Jill was incredibly understand, kind and accommodating, going above and beyond to ensure Aspen was comfortable and happy. Will absolutely rebook in the future. She is just the best!”

“Jim is our go to dog sitter. He was so kind and willing to stay an extra day when we asked to extend our trip! We are able to travel with such a peace of mind knowing our pups and home are in such good hands!”

“Miles took amazing care of our dog Baxter. He was very communicative and we felt so comfortable knowing Baxter and our home were in his care while we were away. We could not be happier with the house sitting services he provided. Would definitely recommend!”
“What a great experience with Madison. From the start, communication was clear and reliable, and it was obvious that Jake was well taken care of while I was away. I received updates and photos that gave me peace of mind. It’s not always easy leaving your dog with someone else, but this experience made it stress free!! Highly recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter to contact Madison. 👍👍👍👍👍”

“Lauren was fantastic!!!! She sent me pictures and kept my dogs happy! I think that I even came back to a cleaner home than when I left!! She is very knowledgeable about dogs so I felt very comfortable with them in her care! I would highly recommend using her, as I will myself again!”

Michael was INCREDIBLE with our lab Harley. He stayed at our home for 4 days/3 nights and kept everything super clean, sent me the most adorable updates (I didn’t even have to ask him!), and made my first long weekend away from my best buddy a breeze. I could truly relax and not worry about a thing, and that is priceless. I will absolutely be contacting Michael for all future pet sitting needs :)

Caylee was amazing. She was very sweet and took great care of my pup. Showed up on time and great communication. Always sent pictures. Kept my dog great company while I was away from my trip. I will highly recommend her for any one needing a dog sitter. I will be reaching out to her any time I can’t take my dog with me. She is first on the list now. You can trust her with your pets.

Absolutely fantastic. Needed an emergency last minute sit and Alexis was so accommodating. Alexis took amazing care of my 3 difficult puppers, providing great communication the whole time and even making sure some of my dogs idiosyncrasies were normal (they were but so wonderful to have that level of detail in their care).

We wish we could leave more than 5 stars! Brittany fulfilled a last-minute, long-term house/dog sitting job for us (28 days!) while we were traveling out of the country and she did such an amazing job. Brittany is a caretaker and dog lover at heart and we were so comfortable to have her stay in our home with our two dogs (a brown lab and a border collie). When we got home our pups were happy and healthy (and probably a little disappointed it wasn’t her coming in the door haha), and our home was immaculately clean. Brittany was very communicative while we were away and took care of everything we asked of her. She clearly loved on our dogs while we were gone and we couldn’t be more pleased with the level of care she took of both the dogs and the house. We know exactly who to call the next time we need a sitter!

Alex was amazing!! She was very professional and attentive to instructions, she made two visits to meet and greet and go over things for her stay to house and dog sit. She was so sweet and treated Harley like her own! She sent pics and updates. We Came home to a happy, calm Harley and very clean house. I would use Alex again in a heart beat, I felt very comfortable leaving for vacation and knowing she was caring for our fur baby and home!!

Lauren was fantastic!!!! She sent me pictures and kept my dogs happy! I think that I even came back to a cleaner home than when I left!! She is very knowledgeable about dogs so I felt very comfortable with them in her care! I would highly recommend using her, as I will myself again!
