“This was our second time booking with G’la, and once again, she absolutely knocked it out of the park! She took care of our dog Finn and cat Tuna while we were in Mexico for our wedding, and knowing they were with someone they already loved made all the difference. Our boys adore her! It’s clear they feel safe, spoiled, and totally at home in her care. She kept us updated with sweet photos and thoughtful check-ins, and we came home to two very happy pets (and a clean house!). G’la is trustworthy, kind, and just really gets animals. We wouldn’t leave Finn and Tuna with anyone else. Five stars, every time!”


“Angelique was flexible, communicative, and super loving with our dogs. She was willing to come walk/meet the dogs prior and get to know them and our house. Her messages during the trip were informative, reassuring and had pics to make it easy to know our pups were doing well. We’ll definitely be adding her to who we reach out to for future trips. Thank you!”


“Dane agreed to dog sit for me at the last minute when my dog was having some health issues and I was worried about leaving him alone. Dane was so positive, friendly, and attentive! I will definitely seek him out in the future with any dog sitting needs.”


“Korin is absolutely fantastic- she’s a great communicator, was so kind and gentle while also being “in charge” with my reactive dog. She sent great updates and pictures and I can’t wait to work with her again!”


“Anais took excellent care of our pets and home while we were away for the weekend. Our dog can be a little finicky and needs a lot of company, but Anais was enthusiastic about getting to know his routine and we arrived home to find relaxed animals and the house just like we left it (she even washed her sheets - really not necessary!). Thanks Anais!”


“Erica stayed at my home and took great care of my two Tibetan Terriers. She was very responsive during her stay and sent pictures, which put my mind at ease. I came home to two happy babies and a clean home. I will definitely call on Erica again when I need a sitter.”


“Jesika and Jyhikeen sat for our 3 rambunctious cats for 10 days, and were wonderful! Great, caring communication, daily photos, and we came home to a clean house and happy cats. We'd absolutely hire them again.”


“Sarah was fantastic with our 2 dogs, including our high energy pit bull who is a handful. She had no problem dealing with their specific needs, feeding them and giving their medications according to our instructions. She house-sat the dogs in our home and she left the house clean and just as she found it. She watered our flowers and took out our trash bins, and brought in our mail. It's so hard to find someone you trust to be in your home while you are away and to take good care of your beloved pets, so I'm so happy to have found Sarah. She is really amazing. She is very organized and willing to help out any way she can. I really appreciate all of her help. Bonus, her own pit mix is such a sweetheart!”


“Natalie was amazing! She took great care of the dogs, including a troublesome puppy, and was super respectful of the house, the schedule, and our time! She took the request last-minute which was great and she was flexible and experienced with handling my dogs’ varying energy levels. She also contacted me right away when there was an issue and handled it like a pro! Would definitely book again & recommend.”


About: What sets me apart is the way I pay attention — to each animal’s individual needs, body language, routines, and comfort level. I grew up with both cats and dogs, so being around animals has always been natural to me. Over the years, I’ve learned to notice the little things: when a dog needs a break from stimulation, when a cat’s had enough attention, or when something seems off in their behavior. My goal is simple: to be someone you (and your pet) can rely on. I’m currently working full time. I work from home on Mondays and Fridays, and usually free on weekends. Happy to help spend time with the pets. In a client’s home, I aim to be a responsible and respectful guest. I follow their instructions closely, from feeding routines to walking schedules to medication needs. I also prioritize maintaining the pet’s usual environment and habits to minimize disruption. Whether it’s scooping litter boxes, refilling water bowls, or just keeping them company during the day, I treat each home and pet with care. Above all, I prioritize safety, trust, and empathy—so pets feel secure and pet parents feel confident while they’re away.

Your furry friend will be able to roam around and have him feel like home. Anything that you request for your furry friend will be considered and taken into account for their stay with me. I am very technologically savvy so you’ll be kept up to date with pictures and texts. I am home majority of the time as I work from home. I Love dogs so ready to treat your own like mine. Begin home full time allows me to take extra care of your fury best friend I have a fenced yard and plenty of room to allow your dog to stretch. I also have dog park 3 min walking distance to go for a walk and potty breaks if you’d like

“Ariena took great care of our pup while we were away. She sent lots of photos to help with my “mom guilt” so I knew that he was being well cared for. She stayed at our place and she left it well cared for! I will definitely be using her again for our future pet sitting needs!”


“Nicole was an amazing dog sitter, and I would use her again in a heartbeat. My dachshund is an older guy, and he is both deaf and struggling with dementia, which means that he requires a lot of care and help. Nicole was incredibly accommodating with regard to his needs - organizing her household to make it safe for him, watching him closely when he was around other dogs, etc. Nicole is also very gracious. For example, I found out upon returning from a two week trip that my dog had been waking her up really early. Rather than complaining about that - which would have been totally justified! - she figured out a way to deal with his early morning needs. Communication was wonderful, I received updates and pictures multiple times a day, and when I picked my pooch up, he seemed happy and well adjusted. Thank you so much Nicole!!”


“Daria stayed in our place with our dog and cat for a week. Unfortunately, our cat became sick during our travel, and she promptly informed us about the situation. She took our cat to the vet, followed instructions about the treatment, and sent us timely updates. She is very caring and went above and beyond attending to our sick cat. Also, she left our house clean and in order. I highly recommend her.”

And 12:30-20:30 on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays Depending on weekends I may be available anytime. We would just need to confirm each others schedules if needed.

“I can't thank him enough for the amazing care he gave to my dogs, Lana and Happy. From the very beginning, he treated them like his own. He even gave them a new ball, took them to the lake for walks and playtime, and kept me constantly updated with photos and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind. On top of all the love and attention, he made sure they were always safe and happy. It's clear he truly loves what he does, and that makes all the difference. I highly recommend him without hesitation!”


“These guys are great! I could tell they had good energy when they came over for a meet and greet before we left on our trip. We needed house/dog sitters and we returned to happy pups and a clean house. We enjoyed our trip knowing our fuzzy babies were safe and sound. They sent us pictures throughout the week and even washed the bed sheets so we didn't have to worry about cleaning when we arrived back home. It was a great experience with these guys and we will use them again for sure!”


“Felicia went above and beyond what we expected. She stayed with our furabies (one of whom is still a puppy) while we were on a 10 day trip to Iceland and we could not have been more at ease. She gave us regular updates and sent us pictures and videos of their playtime. We're pretty sure she cleaned our house too while we were gone :) The pups absolutely adore her and we are now booking her for regular walks while we're at work.”
