“Michael took amazing care of Copper while we were on vacation and left the place even better than when we left! Will definitely rebook in the future and would recommend him to anyone.”

“Stephanie took wonderful care of our two young cats in our home. They have a ton of energy and require a lot of playtime, and Stephanie clearly gave them a lot of attention and care. Additionally, one of our cats has pica, and Stephanie was very conscientious about that and was able to get her to take her liquid medication each morning (not an easy task). She provided detailed updates and lots of pics, and we felt very at ease knowing our kitties were safe in her care. We highly recommend Stephanie to everyone and we would love to work with her again!”

“Lucy got sick but Jennifer kept me informed every step of the way and got her to the ER so she could get the care she needed. I felt upset with myself but also relieved after speaking with the ER Vet who said we should have increased Lucys prednisone when we are away. Anyhow Jennifer went above and beyond with sending pictures and videos of Lucy which assured me she was being well taken care of. I booked her because she brought her dog Champ who fell in love with Lucy. I was able to enjoy our time in Hawaii only after seeing Lucy playing with Champ.”

“Gina was wonderfully attentive and communicative regarding the care of our pups and home. This was my first time using a pet sitter service and her attention to detail, clear communication and transparency really made me feel comfortable leaving my pups and home in her care. I definitely appreciate that she did some light chores and left the house cleaner than we left it!”

“Misao is very conscientious, she visited with us and Bentley at our home prior to sitting and reviewed our instructions and asked great questions. We were gone for a week and she sent pictures of Bentley daily. He did require multiple feedings every day, two walks and he doesn't like to be left alone for more than 2-3 hours, but Misao had no problem with this. When we came home Bentley was very relaxed and the home was very clean! It was like we never left. Thank you so much for the great care Misao!”

“If I could leave more than 5 stars, I would. Megan went above and beyond for our pups and we are so grateful to her for showering our pups with love while we were away. Great communication, left the house spotless, and sent pictures every day. We will definitely contact her again for any future needs.”


About: I grew up around dogs, from the moment I was born till now. Small to the largest they come, I am comfortable handling and caring for them all! I worked in animal husbandry at a major zoo and aquarium, so I am quite in tune to animal welfare needs! I have raised and cared for feral cats even too. I have worked in animal husbandry professionally for many years at a zoo and aquarium. I grew up with many dogs and several rodents even too so I am quite comfortable with all sorts of behaviors and demeanors! I am active and ready to engage with the animals in my care, with a variety of stimulus from play to exercise! Whether it’s just a quick check in, feeding, play time, or overnight stays, I am ready to provide the best care for your pet at a moments notice! I am extremely flexible with schedules and not worried at all about spending more time if needed attending to their behaviors and giving them attention. I pride myself on trust and love which goes both ways, for humans and animals! The relationship between you, the owner, and myself, is just as valuable as that between your pet and me! I promise, them and I will be best friends from the first visit on.

“Katey was amazing. She was very communicative and attuned to my pets needs and personalities. She was reliable and I came home to happy pets. I would definitely use her again!!”


About: I’ve been around animals my entire life and currently have both senior cats and a senior dog (pug) at home. Caring for aging pets has taught me the importance of patience, attentiveness, consistency, and understanding each pet’s individual needs and personality. I’m comfortable caring for both dogs and cats and love getting to know each pet’s unique routine and energy level. I recently graduated and currently have a very flexible schedule, which allows me to provide attentive care throughout the week for dogs and cats of all ages! I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and overnight stays during both weekdays and weekends, and I’m able to spend plenty of quality time with pets during the day. I understand how important consistency and routine are for animals, especially while their owners are away, and I strive to provide dependable care, regular updates, and lots of attention to help pets feel comfortable and safe. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize maintaining their normal routine and helping them feel comfortable in their familiar environment. I’m attentive to feeding schedules, walks, litter box care, medications, and each pet’s individual needs and personality. I can easily crate a dog if necessary. I also value clear communication, cleanliness, and treating every home and pet with respect and care.
“Megan did an exceptional job watching my very big but silly 7mo/65lb puppy for a night! She sent no less than 10 photos and a few updates as the night went on. Typically he doesn’t want to sleep/cuddle near someone “new” but he took to her right away and fell asleep with his head on her lap. Megan left the house as I left it and even started the laundry with the bedsheets (despite me telling her not to worry about it!). Would highly recommend and I’ll be booking her again in the future.”

“Yvette did an incredible job caring for our elderly Pitt Bull with special needs, as well as our chickens and ducks while we were out of town!! She kept us up to date and sent us pictures! It was so nice to be able to relax knowing our pets were being well taken care of. We will definitely contact her for our future vacations! Thank you Yvette!!”

“Mollie was a delight to work with, responsive and pro-active through the entire process. Our incredibly shy kitty, who has previously hidden from all outside caretakers, was taking a treat from Mollie on night one. Out more outgoing boy spent most of his time on Mollie's lap and was a chatterbox about his fun time when we got home. Knowing both our kitties and our home was in excellent hands is a great relief.”


“I have used Erica for drop ins and home sitting and will gladly do so again in the future. She is kind, communicative, and takes excellent care of my pets. They are happy and at ease with her and I feel great peace of mind knowing she is there.”

“Nova was great and both pups took to her immediately! She is very prompt in her communication and was early to both our first meet up and our scheduled dog sitting which made life so much less stressful. I hope to book her again in the future for my dogs.”

“Destiny was very attentive to Luna’s needs and kept her company while I was gone. I received plenty of photos and updates which made me feel at ease. I would absolutely book with Destiny again!”

“Holly watched our pup and our home for an extended house sitting stay. She was very respectful and kept the home tidy as well as kept our dog company. We’ve used Holly for several months and will continue to do so in the future! Thanks again Holly!”

“Andrea is amazing! She went above and beyond taking care of our pups and home. She took them on walks, spent quality time with them, kept us very well updated and even cleaned up our house. We and the pups will be excited to have her back for our next trip!”

Adam was tremendous and just great with Banks and Bodhi He was super communicative throughout the stay, which made it really easy for us to relax and enjoy our time away knowing the dogs were in good hands. He was great with both of them, and it was obvious they were comfortable and happy with him. He also took fantastic care of our house while we were gone, which we really appreciated. We came home to two happy dogs and everything in the house exactly as we left it. We’d definitely have Adam watch them again and would recommend him to anyone looking for a great sitter!

Halcyon did a great job caring for our cat and elderly dog. She was flexible in managing last minute changes to our dog’s medication regimen as well as contractors being at our house working on the exterior while we were away. She kept all my many plants alive inside and outside, provided regular updates, and sent plenty of cute photos. The house was spotless upon our return, and both pets were happy and relaxed.

Brie house sat for my three, high energy pups! She was very responsive and sent plenty of pics so I was not worried about them. I appreciated that Brie was willing to come to my house ahead of time to meet my dogs. I have a German shepherd who can be house protective. It made me feel better that she came to meet them and they all loved her with no protective issues!

We're fans! Keri was the perfect choice for us and our two dogs -- one who's a senior and one who's young and needs a lot of attention. She's caring, kind and considerate. Our dogs loved her -- they were happy and calm when we got home and we know that's because of all the love and attention they got. She responds very quickly to messages, and I really appreciated the great communication and the updates, including pictures of the dogs. Our house was immaculate when we returned home, including washed sheets still warm in the dryer! That's above and beyond. I can't recommend her highly enough. We have a family event coming up and are hoping she's available -- it'll give us great peace of mind and our dogs will be thrilled.

Alassandra was a consummate professional. We being quite attached to our huckleberry, left a very extensive list on what our dog is accustomed to being very pampered and attentive dog owners. She followed everything to a tee including upkeep of the house for the days we hired her for. Daily updates with photos and description of the day’s activities. Huckleberry was in good hands. Highly recommend her. Thanks again alassandra.
Gabrielle was such a great house sitter she offered to bring in mail, water plants, and kept me up to date on what was going on around the apartments. She sent pictures of the dog every day and brought him to local parks. Upon return the place was clean and the dog did not seem stressed. Would book again!
