“Maegan and her family were great sitters to my pug Sofia! I was sent plenty of pictures and I know she was cared for and loved dearly during my long 12 night trip away. Thank you for caring for her!”


“Brigid was perfect for my older dog Scout. She is very loving and attentive. Scout seemed very content with Brigid, who kept me updated with photos and videos. I couldn't have asked for a better sitter for Scout.”


“Sylvia and Mark (and fam) are great. They took great care of my old girl and were super understanding of her evolving idiosyncrasies. Would definitely trust them again and highly recommend.”


“Cheryle is a great dog-sitter. Her house is well set-up for a little dog, with low couches, ramps and lots of cozy spots. Her dachsund was a great companion for my dog, Roscoe. Roscoe came home calm and happy after 5 days at Cherlye's. He was on a variety of meds for a sore back and she managed all those well and took great care of him.”


“(I have a BullyMix) Jayla is great! Warm personality can see she is caring and my pup will be in great hands and he was!! This was my first time and my pups first of staying overnight and overall with someone he doesn't know. She shared pictures and updates and accommodated my delay in schedule. He seemed happy and at ease! Thank you will be booking again.”


“My dog can be anxious and shy around new people, so I felt incredibly guilty and worried when I dropped him off at Stephanie’s home for boarding for a last minute overnight work trip. But Stephanie was fantastic and very communicative while my dog was with her. She sent frequent updates and lots of pictures of him through out his stay that ease my mind and made me feel less guilty about leaving him with a stranger. And the biggest vote of confidence were all the pictures of him cuddling with her. I will definitely use her for future trips and dog walking in general.”



“Imonia was great sitter! I can tell Hulk and Lily enjoyed themselves a lot. She sent videos and photos to me which I loved! and gave me updates on how they were doing everyday and was very active with them. I would definitely recommend her to others and will definitely rebook.”

“Vera was nothing short of amazing. Her professionalism is outstanding! She has definitely found her calling. Vera immediately became family. We are excited for this new relationship!”


“Emily was an excellent pet sitter! Our pup has a new best friend! She kept us informed with plenty of updates and sent lots of great photos. We will definitely use her again if we need a sitter. Thanks Emily!”


“Catherine was great! Our sheltie had a great time. He was in very good spirits - we’ll fed, walked and clean! Plus we got lots of photos throughout! What more can you ask for!? Will definitely be using her again!”


“Laura is a very caring dog lover, evidenced by all the senior dogs she takes into her care. She understands dogs and provides them with a safe and loving environment. Communication was easy and consistent, and Laura was flexible about dropoff given problematic weather conditions. I highly recommend her!”


“Thanks to Serhii and Olesia they made a great job. I left my dog Morris with them for the day . They took him out for a walk and they sent me pictures and video of Morris having a good time, you can see that they really love animals and they take care very good.”


About: Friends and family members have trusted me to care for their furry loved ones for as long as I can remember. Our furry friends deserve just as much love and care as we do. I work from home three days out of the week, so I am able to care for pets during the day. I am also incredibly available throughout the weekends and each weeknight. I maintain a consistent daily routine for feeding, potty breaks, and playtime to keep pets feeling secure and comfortable. I keep clients updated with photos and updates on their pets' well-being, so they can feel confident that their furry friend is in good hands. I create a pet-friendly environment with plenty of space for pets to roam, play, and relax. I ensure all areas are pet-proofed and free from hazards. Pets receive lots of attention, playtime, and cuddles. I offer enrichment activities like toys and outdoor walks.

“Extremely good pet sitter. My elderly dog stayed over thanksgiving break and I got frequent updates/pictures. Very intuitive about my dog’s wants/needs. You would struggle finding a better person to take care of your animals, especially if you have a dog with a big personality.”



“Kirk always has the best time at Maggie’s- gets to meet and play with other pups and is so happy every time we pick him up! So appreciative that Kirk is always so well cared for by Maggie while we’re gone!”


“Cache was absolutely amazing with our puppy Nala! She sent consistent updates, and Nala seemed to have so much fun when she was there. 1,000,000% would recommend and most definitely will be a repeat client!”

(I have a BullyMix) Jayla is great! Warm personality can see she is caring and my pup will be in great hands and he was!! This was my first time and my pups first of staying overnight and overall with someone he doesn't know. She shared pictures and updates and accommodated my delay in schedule. He seemed happy and at ease! Thank you will be booking again.

She was so accommodating of my dogs needs and personality. She made sure he was fed on time, walked, and ready for pick up. She responds quick to all messages, and was able to fit me in last minute. She made sure to send cute videos of him and kept me updated on their day. I would highly recommend her as a great sitter. I’m definitely going to ask her to watch my dog again! :)

We are very pleased with Tucker’s one night stay with Amanda. He was very calm when we picked him up. Not only was Amanda proactive in letting us know how he settled in, in the evening but also took him for a long walk the next morning when it was cooler. We will gladly book another stay with Amanda in the future!

Emily was so fantastic with my rotti, Kenna. She is a rescue who has been with me for 5 years, but had a few homes before, and never been away from me overnight, so I was a little nervous about leaving her. Emily was very reassuring and they got along at the initial meet and greet and I could see that Emily has a very calm demeanor that is great for an anxious doggo. While I was away she sent me daily updates with lots of pictures and let me know how my girl was doing which I definitely appreciated. I would definitely recommend Emily and trust her to watch my pup in the future.
