“Zhanna made our time away relaxing because we had absolutely nothing to worry about when she watched our two golden doodles. She consistently sent pictures and kept us updated on how they were doing. She is very responsible, responsive and kind. Our dogs were looking for her in our guest room the day we came back which is a testament to her love for animals. I would, and will, use Zhanna again to doggy sit while away. I would highly reccomend her to anyone without concern.”
“Barbara was great, she kept us posted the entire time, left notes and maintained the house organized and clean. Poppy, our cat, did great and was comfortable and happy around Barbara.”
“Emily took care of our 3 girls (senior with dimentia, hyper pup and a diva) like a champ! I appreciated the check ins and pictures throughout their time with her. We will definitely use her as our go to sitter!”
“I highly recommend Chris as a dog sitter. He is reliable and always on time. The dogs adore him, and it's evident that he has a special bond with them. I appreciate how he keeps me informed by communicating any questions or issues that arise during his stays. Overall, I am very satisfied with his service and trust him completely with my furry companions”
“This was the first time we had used Blaize for in home per sitting. We had a family emergency and had to move up our trip by two weeks very last minute. Blaize was so flexible and agreed to sit literally the day before we had to leave. She was also respectful and comforting of my hesitation with having someone I didn’t know stay at my house and care for our two dogs. She was dependable, sent regular updates, and left my house as if she hadn’t even been there. We were very happy with Blaize and will continue to use her in the future.”
“Noel did a great job. He stayed in my home with my two dogs for 5 nights. He was very attentive to the instructions we left for the pups. The house was just as we left it when we returned. Will definitely reach out to him for future bookings.”
“Miles was amazing! Took amazing care of my 4 month old Shiba Inu while I was away for a few days, alone with 2 of my reptiles. (One being special needs) It was so relieving having someone trustworthy stay at my home to keep an eye on things for me, and take care of my babies.”
“I was so pleased with Samantha’s kind nature and competent care of my dog Scarlet and cat Happy! I am new to the area and was reluctant to leave my animals. Samantha sent me pictures throughout my leave and took care of everything. I highly recommend her and now look forward to being able to plan future trips! Thanks Samantha! ♥️❤️??”
“Amanda was great! Booked her very last minute. She was reliable and always answered my texts when checking on the boys. lots of pictures too. I will be using her again”
“Anthony did a great job with our dogs. He spent 11 days house/pet sitting our 2 German Shepherds. This breed can be difficult but he had no trouble, they were very well taken care of. He sent us video updates throughout the week so we could see what they were doing. I would not hesitate to ask for Anthony again.”
About: I always grew up with at least one dog in the house. First a 90 pound chocolate lab and then two cockapoos around 25 pounds. Now I spend a lot of time with my mom’s two dogs that are 35 and 75 pounds fluffballs and my sisters Maltese terrier that is the most anxious dog I’ve ever met. I also recently got my own mixed black lab puppy that is about 6 months old, so I’m very experienced with training puppies and cleaning up after them. I’ve only formally sat one cockerspaniel, but that was consistently for about 7 months of walks and sitting while she grew up. I like to keep the dogs active and having fun, but more importantly keeping them to their comforts and their schedules so they can be their happiest. I have an odd, but often flexible schedule with usually very open hours between 11-2. This makes that middle of the day walk perfect for me. I do not board as I have a puppy of my own that is my priority to train fully until she is ready to have new dogs in her space. This does mean that I’m up for any crazy dog walking or sitting because I have the most recent experience with that stage of puppy adventure.
“Sydney was fantastic taking care of our two standard poodles, as well as taking great care of our home. She gave us daily updates and was extremely responsive when we called or texted to check in. Highly recommend and will be using her again!”
“Alyssa took care of Luna at her home while we were on vacation for four days/three nights. Luna took to her immediately and it was clear that Alyssa has a lot of love and experience with dogs. She was loving and caring and sent us a photo of Luna twice daily with a sweet and fun caption. Alyssa has a wonderful dog, Ace, and Luna and Ace played well together in her spacious fenced in back yard. We were comfortable and enjoyed our time away, knowing that Luna was loved, well taken care of and also well exercised. She had a sweet playmate with Ace the whole time which is a real bonus! We will definitely ask Alyssa again to take care of Luna, when we have to travel without her. Thank you Alyssa for taking care so wonderfully of our Luna !”
“Colton took wonderful care of my lil maltipoo!! He sent plenty of updates, pics, and gave him lots of walks and playtime. It put my mind at ease to know my furbaby was in good hands while I was traveling for work. Absolutely recommend Colton and will for sure have him back for future stays!”

Kaylan M.
“Kaylan has been my first choice for pet-care on multiple occasions. I have two dogs: 1 is an 80 pound, pure goofball Sheepadoodle and the other a 35 pound Soft-coated Wheaten Terrier. They have different needs and temperaments and Kaylan accommodates those needs. Longer walks for the big guy and more snuggling with my little girl. She is good with their schedule and dietary needs and they are happy and healthy when I return home.”
