“Autumn is fabulous!!! She remained in touch with us during our entire trip. She sent pictures and videos regularly. Cocoa couldn’t have been in better hands. Autumn and her family treated Cocoa very well. At pick-up, Cocoa was excited to see us, but she also appeared sad to leave Autumn. We are 100% pleased with Autumn’s care, and we will definitely trust her with Cocoa in the future!!!”
“I’m so grateful that Megan and William were able to take Betty last minute and were so flexible with our plans! They kept me updated with pictures throughout her stay, which gave me great peace of mind. I also really appreciated them taking Betty for a walk and giving her such great care. I would definitely recommend Megan and William to anyone looking for kind, reliable, and thoughtful sitters!”

“Tyler was great with my dog Riley! She immediately took to his house and yard, as well as Tyler himself. He was flexible in terms of scheduling a meet-and-greet that was kinda last minute and was professional. He also provided plenty of photo updates of Riley throughout the stay. Overall, I would definitely use Tyler again for dog sitting.”


About: I grew up with dogs as pets in our home and I currently have a Labrador. I have over 15 years of dog care experience and would be happy to care of your fur baby and give them a wonderful staycation of their own while you are away. I would love to know about your pet’s daily routine, special needs, exercise requirements , medication and allergy information - please share as much details possible. I can attend to picky eaters - just let me know your fur baby’s likes and dislikes, how they want to be fed. I will be able to follow their daily health supplement , oral medication requirements. I love taking my dog on long walks, trails and your pup will be enjoying the same outdoor activities while staying at my place. Looking forward to meeting your fur baby ! I work remotely and taking care of your pup will fit well in my daily routine as I also have my own fur baby. My calendar is up to date . I have fully fenced in yard and your pets will be safe and well taken care of while at my place. I would love to take your pups for walks, have backyard playtime and running. As a dog mom myself , I completely understand the emotion we go through when leaving our fur babies away and knowing that , I want to assure you that your pup’s emotional and physical security will be my top priority. They will be spoiled with cuddles, hugs and indoor- outdoor relax time as per their liking. The fenced in yard is where they can run and play to their hearts content carefree and I do have lots of outdoor toys for them to enjoy.
“Alex is a fantastic sitter. She sent me lots of photos of Hank during my trip, and when circumstances held me up for an extra day, she was willing to extend the booking. I can feel confident leaving Hank with her, knowing that he will be in good hands, and I highly recommend Alex to any pet parent.”


“Coralee and her family are absolutely wonderful! They are very warm and kind, and I could tell they really care about their guest pups. We felt extremely at ease having our dog Beau stay with them, and it only helped that they were very communicative and kept us updated with texts and pics the entire time we were away. We will DEFINITELY have Beau stay with them again next time :)”


“Laura made Willow feel right at home from the start! And Laura made us feel comfortable right from the start with all of the photos/texts she shared. Couldn't have been happier with Willow's care.”

“Raeann was by far the best Rover we ever had. She took the time to meet our dog beforehand and was wonderful. She gave us updates with pictures very often and made us feel like we left our dog with an old friend. I'd recommend Raeann to any pet owner who wants a worry-free experience! We will definitely be using her again in the future.”

“First time using rover. She was great. Sent me at least 6 pictures during my dogs stay. I will definitely always ask her to watch my dog from now on.”
“Gina took good care of our 1yr old puppy - took her on lots of walks, fun outings to breweries, and play times for our energetic girl. Gina was very easy to work with for us as well. She was flexible with drop-off and pick-up times, and went out of her way to coordinate a pick up time when we left some of Lilah's stuff behind.”

“We recently needed to find a new sitter for our dogs for the first time in a couple of years so we were a little anxious about how they would handle a new place. They had a great first stay with Ellyn! She sent pictures/updates every day and we could tell that they were comfortable and well cared for. They were happy and tired from their adventures when we picked them up. We will definitely use Ellyn again and would highly recommend her!”

“Adam was a great sitter for Remi. He was very communicative and flexible with our revised pick up time. Proof of life photos were provided every day with a small summary of the day. Would highly recommend!”

“super kind & kept me up to date with pictures and messages so i knew my pup was doing well. very accommodating and i’ll definitely be back with denyal if i leave town again!”

About: Having been a dog and cat owner for most of my life, I'm excited to be able to take the love and care that I've provided and share it with your fur baby. I work from home most days, so I am able to spend a lot of time with your dog or cat, including overnights. Feeding, walks, play time, cuddles, general attention. I just want to be your pets new best friend! I love dogs and cats of all shapes, sizes, and ages. I am good with pets that need medication (oral) and that are still being housebroken. Communication is important and my goal is to keep you as updated about your pet as you would like. It is my priority that you, your pet, and myself are safe and comfortable, so meet and greets before any booking are a must. Looking forward to become friends with your favorite animal. I work from home most days of the week, with meetings over Zoom and in person throughout the week. I'm usually not gone from home longer than a few hours at a time. This can be adjusted accordingly. Weekends are not a problem to be there for your animal as needed. When staying at a clients home it is my priority to respect the home owners space. Meeting prior to any overnights is a must to discuss details, learn how your pet behaves at home, and where they are comfortable being in the home. Communication between myself and the pet owner is very important.
