“Morgan was so friendly and kept me up to date with pictures and messages of the pups. Our dogs loved spending time with her. Will definitely keep her in mind for rebooking!”


“Mary was a great dog and cat sitter. She was very communicative providing descriptions, photos, and videos after each visit. My dog is a bit nervous and skittish, but she was able to quickly bond with him and by the second day he was already comfortable with her.”


“Dogs seemed happy when I got home, and Randi was responsive and flexible. She house set so the dogs could sleep in their own beds but took them to her house to play with her pack during the day, which I'm sure they enjoyed.”


“Averi did great with Sandy. We were gone on an extended trip and Averi stayed with Sandy in our home for 16 days. She followed all instructions for Sandy and really carred for her. Sandy loved her time and we got a lot of pictures while we were gone. This helped keep us from worrying to much. She walked, played with, and gave Sandy her medicine. It was christmas and Sveri got Sandy a puppy stocking and photo with Santa. She went above everything we expected. I highly recommend her.”


About: My very first job—at the ripe age of 10—was pet sitting for my neighbor, and from that moment on, I knew animals would always have a special place in my life. Those furry friends quickly became my best friends, and honestly, it felt like I should have been paying them for the joy they brought me! Growing up, my family always had dogs, so I learned early on what it means to care for and be responsible for animals.

“Wesley was amazing. Kept in contact with us. Took amazing care of our pups. Let us know if any issues. She even got my little old pup to cuddle and that is rare. He really doesn’t like many people! She was amazing and we plan to use her again and again!!”


“Helena was everything we hoped for in a dog and house sitter. I appreciate so much all of the photos, the detailed updates on their time together, and how proactive Helena was with communicating. We cannot wait to be her repeat clients. If you want someone that you can trust that your dog will quickly be obsessed with, look no further. Seriously, thank you so much, Helena!”

About: Leaving your beloved fur friend doesn’t have to feel like a punishment. When left in the care of an affectionate, protective and attentive dog momma like myself, leaving can be an ultimate act of love. My name is Alicia and I have cared for and loved animals as long as I can remember. I grew up with pets. Any species you can imagine, I had one! However, my heart has always been with dogs. I have been a rescue foster for two years and it is the most rewarding way to give back. I have a large dog friendly home in a neighborhood with two dog parks, walking trails, and a large field right across the street. So your pup will not be lacking in space to run and play ooorr lounge and snooze. I have one puppy, he is a medium size cockapoo that’s quite shy but a gentle teddy bear and loves to play chase with other pups! I look forward to meeting you and your fur baby! Every dog that stays in my care is immediately assigned a tracking device on their harness/collar for added security. I also provide you with the link to their location and the link to my pet cameras so you can get a peek at your baby while you’re away. I work part time currently so I am free weekdays Tuesday - Thursday and after 2pm on Mondays and Fridays. For weekends it’s a case by case basis. I live in a beautiful neighborhood with two dog parks, walking trails, and large fields to run and play. I also have a friendly playful pup that is always down for a game of chase.

About: I have had dogs ever since I was little but didn't start being able truly experience the responsibility of taking care of dogs until about 12. Caring for my dogs has served as a great example throughout my life of showing me patience, unconditional love, and loyalty. Over the years I have had 6 dogs with 3 being the ones that I was old enough to care for. All of them with their individual, outgoing personalities have been a joy in my life. A stand out experience I've had with my dogs, has to be currently with caring for my elderly and sickly dog, Yoshi. He is a 10-year-old Husky-Akita who has an autoimmune disease called Pemphigus Vulgaris which severely affects his skin. Out of my family of 4, I have been his primary caretaker; administering his medicine when he was on it, researching different remedies to help him, bathing him to soothe his irritated & itchy skin, making him a natural ointment to treat his wounds, and changing his diet off of dry dog food to a medley of Freshpet dog food and steamed vegetables. Although the process is trying, I see him as God's animal and I feel I've been given the responsibility to care and love him unconditionally as animals were made to do the same for us. I am a freelance graphic designer who works from home so I have open availability to provide animal care. Mostly available Sun-Fri, Limited availability on Saturdays I have a small yard but live in a housing development that is dog friendly with lots of sidewalks and trails that provide dog waste trashcans. Besides walking, I provide feeding, brushing, bathing, administering ointment or medication, and lots of love and attention.

“Ciara is absolutely fantastic. We booked her at the last minute and were out of town so we weren't able to actually do a walk through with her but she did everything we asked of her and more. She was very communicative, sent so many photos and status check ins of my dog, and in general is so sweet and you can tell she loves animals. I will be using her services in the future and recommend to everyone. She is amazing.”


About: I have taken care of dogs ranging from a Maltese to a pit bull since I was 9 years old.

Sometimes it may vary when I am available but can let you know in a quick message on the app! In my client's home, I would ensure that the dog has food and water if needed while I am there. The dog would be taken out on walks to ensure they are getting exercise and can use the bathroom. While I am with the dog I would play and keep them company.
