“Paige was great. She was responsible and did a wonderful job taking care of our little boy and girl. Including looking out for other not typical parts of the housesitting experience. We would definitely hire her again.”
“Alicia was a top-notch dog sitter. She sent us so many wonderful, high-quality photos of our dog Goldie, which was most appreciated! She was an excellent communicator. I felt like Goldie was in good hands, and I highly recommend her!”
“Our eperience with Jayna couldn't have been better! Jayna did way more than what was expected. Our baby girl (Lani) was spoiled and well taken care of. Jayna took Lani on her daily walks, snuggled her with blankets at night, sent photo updates of our pup twice a day, and left our home honestly, in better conditions than when we left it! Jayna went above an beyond by bringing in our mail, being on a look out for incoming packages, keeping our backyard grass clean, and leaving my kitchen counters spotless. Couldn't have asked for a better pet sitter. Thanks so much!”
“Sage was amazing! This is the first time we used her as a doggie sitter for our baby Gracie, she was so great taking care of her and we look forward to using Sage again. In our opinion, she is the BEST!!! 🩷😊🐶”
“Audrey is a gem! My dog was unwell while I was away and Audrey handled everything so perfectly and with great calm. She took such good care of my fur baby and I am so grateful. Will continue to look to Audrey for my dog’s care!”
“Olivia is a great communicator and regularly updated me with photos and texts. I felt very confident that my dogs and cats were well cared for and would absolutely recommend Olivia to take care of your fur kids.”
“Cristen was awesome! Our schedules changed a bunch around this and she was extremely flexible and accommodating. We got many pics and updates and knew our little guy was in good hands. Will definitely use her again!”
“Our flight got cancelled and Maria came to the rescue! One of our two dogs is very nervous and it is always scary for us to have someone walking into the home without us there. But because they know and love Maria, we knew that our dogs were in good hands when she stayed with them for a few hours when our trip home was delayed. How they react to her is a good indication of the care that she gives them.”
“We cannot say enough good things about Maureen. She's the best. This was our first time with Maureen as our sitter. We have 2 cats and 2 dogs. One dog Spanky, is a COVID puppy and doesn't take to people easily. He took to Maureen the first time they meet. When we were on vacation we received daily reports and pictures from her. It set our minds at ease. So happy she will be taking care of our fur children again in December.”
About: I've had dogs my entire life, and caring for them has always been a big part of who I am. As a lifelong dog owner, I understand that every dog has unique needs, routines, and personalities. My own dog is now a senior and can't enjoy the long walks and hikes we used to take together, so I'd love the opportunity to spend that time with other dogs who still enjoy those adventures. I've been caring for neighbors', family friends', and relatives' dogs since I was young, giving me experience with dogs of all ages and temperaments. I've also helped with puppy training and understand the importance of consistency, patience, and positive reinforcement. I'm flexible, dependable, and detail-oriented. Whether your dog needs a strict routine followed closely or a customized schedule based on their individual needs, I'll make sure they receive attentive, loving care. My goal is to treat every dog like my own and give owners peace of mind while they're away. My schedule is very flexible, which allows me to provide dependable and attentive care for your pets. I work part-time both from home and at a local coffee shop, but my shifts are typically only about four hours long. This makes it easy for me to accommodate morning, afternoon, and evening visits, walks, and check-ins. I enjoy staying active and spending time outdoors, so I’m happy to fit pet care into my daily routine and give your pets the attention, exercise, and companionship they deserve. When caring for pets, my top priorities are safety, comfort, and maintaining their normal routine. For house sitting, drop-in visits, and dog walking, I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding schedules, medications, exercise needs, and household rules. I understand that every pet has a unique personality and comfort level, so I take time to build trust and make sure they feel secure while you are away. I also provide regular updates, photos, and communication so you can have peace of mind knowing your pet is happy, safe, and well cared for in their own familiar environment.
About: As a first-grade teacher, I bring patience, responsibility, and a caring nature to every pet I meet. I understand that every dog is different and deserves personalized attention. Whether your pup loves long walks, playtime, or extra cuddles, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved. I’m reliable, communicative, and will keep you updated with photos and messages so you can enjoy peace of mind while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my routine. As a teacher, I have a structured schedule and am available before and after school, on weekends, holidays, and during school breaks. Right now I am on summer break and am available a lot more in my mornings and early afternoons. I enjoy being active and spending time outdoors, so dog walks are something I genuinely look forward to. I make sure every pet gets plenty of attention, exercise, and care while they’re with me. I focus on making pets feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while keeping their routine as consistent as possible. In a client’s home, I follow feeding schedules, provide fresh water, take dogs on walks, offer playtime and companionship, and make sure they get plenty of attention and affection. I also keep owners updated with photos and messages. My goal is to give pets a fun, stress-free experience while giving their owners peace of mind.
About: I have owned dogs for a combined time of over 10 years. I enjoy walking them, playing with them, and cuddling with them. Over the summer I have a very flexible schedule as I am a teacher on summer break looking to make some extra cash. I am currently available most weekdays but not weekends. I am an early riser and love to go on walks. I’m looking forward to meeting your pup and spending time with them. I have a fenced back yard and one calm Great Dane/ Lab mix we adopted over a year ago named Danner. We do not have children or any other pets. I would treat your dog as I do my own, with love, care and compassion.
“Anna was amazing, not only did she show up on time, but she sent me several check ins throughout the night. She made sure that I knew that my Furkid was happy and safe. She followed the directions I left for her to the T. Anna was extremely punctual and professional. I would highly recommend her to anyone who is in need of pet sitting. She was the epitome of a perfect pet sitter. I will definitely book her again ❤️”
“Brooke was amazing! 10/10. She was responsible, punctual, communicative and took great care of our fur baby! We had regular updates and pics which were awesome! We came home to a spotless house. Luna loved Brooke! She was very warm and loving with our pup. Would definitely use Brooke again! Awesome!”
“Yesenia is fantastic! She cared for our kitties like they're her own. One, in particular, was going through some health challenges, and Yesenia took extra care to tend to her medication and special diet. She also played with them and kept us updated throughout, including lots of pictures.”

Sarah F. took excellent care of Sandi while we were away. She was very responsive and responsible, and kept us updated throughout the entire time. We really appreciated the regular updates and photos, which gave us peace of mind. Sandi was clearly well cared for, and we would absolutely trust Sarah again in the future.
Melissa helped out on a last minute request when we had a family emergency and had to leave town on short notice. She put our minds at ease knowing our dog and home were well cared for while we were away. She even went the extra mile and washed the sheets and towels she used while she was here. Thank you for everything Melissa.
Katherine provides outstanding care for our dog, Bailey, who gets so excited the moment she walks through the door. Beyond her excellent pet care, is a fantastic communicator. We receive updates, notes, and photos daily, which makes being away so much easier. Most importantly, I have complete peace of mind knowing she is in our home; she is incredibly reliable, professional, and treats our home with the utmost respect. She is easily the best dog sitter we have ever worked with, and we feel so lucky to have found her! 🐶
Brooke was amazing! 10/10. She was responsible, punctual, communicative and took great care of our fur baby! We had regular updates and pics which were awesome! We came home to a spotless house. Luna loved Brooke! She was very warm and loving with our pup. Would definitely use Brooke again! Awesome!
Molly was a wonderful pet sitter for my anxious/reactive 60lb gsd who she house sat for 1 month. My dog doesn't do well with alot of people so it was good to find someone who could work with her. She was also flexible in extending the pet sitting due to extraneous circumstances on my part and very thorough in communication. 100% would rebook again.
Chase was such a good sitter for my dog! I was initially worried because I was looking for someone last minute, but Chase put my worries at ease. He was communicative with me when I was away, kept the place clean, and also watered some plants! Would definitely hire Chase again.
We had Le Lee stay overnight with our 2 cats and they loved her! We have one cat who’s really social, loves to play and needs to be played with a lot so he doesn’t cause trouble, Le Lee gave him all the attention he needed and played with him until he was tired. Our other cat is super skittish and mostly hides when people come over. She has been known to hide the whole time when sitters are there but she was out and playing with Le Lee within the same day (amazing because she never does that!) Le Lee sent lots of pictures and updates for us which reassured me that everything was going well, and I wasn’t worried at all. She also was available last minute and made time to come do a meet and greet with us and the cats beforehand. I would highly recommend her for your pets, and I’ll definitely be asking her to stay with our cats again next time! Thank you so much Le Lee!
Mari was great. She is very communicative and quick to reply. She texted me a photo and update each day, which was very reassuring for me. My dog liked her, she followed directions and my house was kept clean and everything in its place when I returned. I will definitely book Mari the next time I need a pet sitter. Thanks Mari.
