Rod was amazing with Jake. Took him on lots of adventures, send me frequent updates and pictures and left the house in much better shape than I left it. I would highly recommend Rod and plan on having him hang out with Jake again.

Such an amazing sitter! Dee was extremely attentive to our dog and followed her routine to a Tee. She even went out of her way to take her to the nearby dog park to get some extra exercise! Would 100% recommend!!

About: Experienced in leading dogs big and small, young and old, well-mannered and not. Waking, sitting, drop ins, day care, and training. Deep understanding of dog psychology. Open to any specific requests, flexible with pet parents. I’m currently a full time trainer and pet sitter. I have a relatively flexible schedule. You’re welcome to send me messages about dates and about your pet. I’ll do my best to help out! I live in a large house, multiple floors. I have a large backyard with a leash anchor. Your pet will be my main focus for the duration of their stay whether it be training or sitting. The same goes for sitting or training in your home as well. I adapt well to new houses, don’t mind cats as well. I like to keep clean around the house, and I do offer deep cleaning as an extra.

Amie is phenomenal!! She really stepped up for us this past week when we were on vacation, she went above and beyond. Our house was badly hit with storms and she kept the pets and home safe. She’s not just your standard sitter, she’s so much more than that. We’re beyond blessed that she came into our lives and was able to take care of our fur babies for us. Took great care of our home, even cleaned out the fridge from losing power, ended up injuring her own knee on Mudd but didn’t skip a beat. Our puppy hadn’t been through storms yet and come to find out he absolutely hates them, she made him feel so comfortable. The communication was outstanding!! We will be using her without a doubt for all future trips. Thank you Amie from the bottom of our hearts!

Morgan was amazing with our cat and dog while we were on vacation. She sent us daily updates and was quick with communication. Our dog had a minor injury right before we left and Morgan was great at administering his medicine and making sure he adhered to the vet recommendations. We would definitely book with Morgan again.

About: What truly sets me apart is my deep personal experience with special-needs pets. As the proud owner of a blind dog, I understand firsthand that visually impaired pets don't just need a sitter—they need someone who can speak their language and navigate their world. I'm currently working part-time for the summer until late August. As a part-time worker, pet care fits easily into my day. I anchor the routine with a solid morning walk and feeding before my shift, which allows my pet to rest while I’m away. My afternoons and evenings are dedicated to a second feeding and exercise. On my days off, I dedicate extra time to cleaning pet areas and longer outings. Routine is so important for a pet's well-being, I am highly adaptable to unique needs. For senior pets or pets with sensory limitations—such as blindness—I take extra care to keep their environment entirely predictable. In my home, I ensure the layout remains identical so they can navigate safely, and in the client's home, I follow their exact setup. I use gentle voice and touch cues to avoid startling them, maintaining a calm, structured routine so they always feel secure and cared for.

Christie continues to impress - she takes such care with our dogs that she really does now feel like family. I have zero concerns about her ability to manage anything that comes up - or provide the required number of cuddles for our very spoiled poodles!

10/10 no notes for Sunnie. Dogs are happy and house is immaculate. Sunnie communicates everything that’s going on with the dogs—good and bad. She’s totally transparent which I really appreciate! Already booked her for my next trip! Thank you Sunnie!!

Julia did a great job! We were away for 5 days, and our dogs were happy and well fed when we returned. The house was cleaned and she checked in with pictures to let us know that everything was going well.

Lindsey watched our dogs Friday night and all day Saturday for drop in visits. She didn't just let them out potty and leave quickly. She actually stayed and played with them, gave them treats, and spent time with them outside even during the rain. I highly recommend her and we will be using her again soon! Thank you for taking great care of our dogs!

About: I have grown up surrounded by animals. I started taking care of pets on my own at the age of seven, and I’ve loved doing it ever since. I currently have two rescues of my own, and have experience in senior care. I currently work from home and have an open schedule. I have availability for a fixed schedule or just whenever you need the extra help. I know how important routine is in a pets life, whatever directions are given will be followed. And they will get plenty of cuddles and playtime.

April was wonderful. She responded to all of my texts in a timely manner. My dogs seemed at ease with her. She sent many texts and pictures while I was gone to let me know they were ok. I would highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs. I would definitely use her again.

April was great taking care of our 2 elderly dogs for a week. She was very communicative and even went and got one of our dogs a new collar when his broke unexpectedly. Will be using her again in the future.
