“Justin’s family took amazing care of our cat Davy Jones while I was away, and I couldn’t be more grateful. Davy means the world to me, and they treated him like family. They made sure all of his needs were met and went above and beyond making time to meet him before my trip. My Davy can be picky with who he gets along with but from the moment they came over he was out rolling around at their feet begging for pets. I came home to a happy, well taken care of boy. I would absolutely trust them again and highly recommend them. I can’t wait to book again in the future knowing my guy will be well taken care of.”

“Denise did an amazing job watching our two cats! It was a little bit of a last minute request, but she responded very quickly and put us at ease. We will definitely be reaching out in the future!”

“Great communication and willingness to help. I am so glad I found these two, and I will be using them as long as I am in the area. If you are deciding between sitters to watch/walk your dog, simply choose Krisanne and Gaston. You will be soooo happy you did.”

About: I’m an experienced and dependable dog sitter/caregiver who loves spending time with animals! I’m flexible, reliable, and committed to giving every dog the attention, care, and affection they deserve!! I’ve watched and raised dogs of all ages and sizes and also volunteer at my local shelter :) I am currently working part time as a nanny and going to school during the weekdays. I am able to leave school partly to take a dog outside if needed :) I am comfortable with crating, feeding, picking up waste, and taking pets on walks! I’ve always had dogs in my home so I am super comfortable caring for them. I am very respectful of boundaries and am very commutative through texts and pictures/videos to ensure you and your pets feel safe!!
“Sydney was wonderful! She stepped in very last minute and was able to arrange a meet and greet with only a couple of hours of notice. She sent pictures and wonderful updates each time she dropped in for my dogs. I will definitely use her again!”

About: Throughout highschool I dog sat for a family who was out of town a lot. I cared for 3 dogs, one of whom was older! I have a lot of experience in caring for dogs, from respecting their boundaries to specific dietary needs. I also own a dog and raised her from a puppy; she would love some furry friends 🐶. (Also I’m not JUST here for the cute dogs). I will be beginning my journey into getting my masters degree, so I will have a lot of free time to care for your lovely pets. I will have a part time job but I will work around those days of work:) In my clients home I make sure to try and keep the pets in a similar routine to what they are used to. I think this is important for the pet to be as comfortable as possible. I also make it a priority to play with them and take them outside (if this is something they like). This keeps them stimulated, and if they are anything like my Aussie dog, less anxious.
About: We both grew up with pets in our family homes and we now have a golden Retriever/Australian Shepard mix and two cats. Our pup will love to play with yours and we love going on lots of walks - we can’t wait to meet your sweet furry friend! We already have a dog and he is part of our daily schedule! Welcoming another pup to our daily schedule wont effect our day :) We have a friendly dog to keep your furry friend company and we live in a very safe neighborhood. We have a turf area for pet relief right outside our front door at our town home and a small area our dog Cyprus loves on the back side of our townhome.

About: As a dog mama myself, I understand what it means to leave your pup in someone else's hands. I treat every dog like family — with the same patience, attention, and love I give my own. We go on lots of walks (there's a trail right next to my house) and have tons of play time and cuddle time. I work from home, so am able to give your pup the attention s/he needs and deserves. I go on frequent walks with my own pup and have a dog door so the pups can go in and out as they need. There is a trail right beside out house and we go on lots of walks throughout the day. Pups are allowed on the furniture and even sleep with me!

About: Hi! I’ve been helping care for pets for friends and family for the past 3 years and have become one of their main go-to sitters. I have experience with overnight stays, drop-in visits, feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and administering medications (including shots) when needed. I understand that every pet has different needs and personalities, and I always work to make them feel safe and show them all the love, so they are comfortable and cared for while their owners are away. I currently work full-time from 8 AM–5 PM with an hour lunch break from 12–1, which gives me flexibility for midday check-ins if needed. I’m also an early riser and have plenty of time in the mornings and evenings to give pets attention, exercise, feeding, medications, and companionship. I have weekends completely free, allowing for extra time and flexibility for overnight stays or pets needing more consistent care and attention. I know pets are family, and I treat every animal with patience, kindness, and care. I currently have 2 cats of my own and grew up around dogs and several other animals, which has helped me become very comfortable reading different pet personalities and behaviors. I pay close attention to routines, moods, and body language so I can quickly notice if something seems out of the ordinary. My goal is always to create a safe, calm, and loving environment where pets feel comfortable, secure, and well cared for while you’re away.
“Cindy is great. My pup really enjoys their activities together & she gives her all the attention she needs! Highly recommend booking with her!”


About: -Grew up on a farm with a wide range of animals -My pups are my children and treated like royalty. Their homemade dinners are more healthy than what my fiance and I make for ourselves! -My uncle is a vet so I've got a vet on stand by for any small to large questions and needs that may arise. I work at a teen homeless shelter so my shifts paired with my fiance's job shifts make house sitting at my house not feasible. I am able to do drop in services along with walk. I value safety above all else. Your best friend will be taken care of as if they are my own. Good communication will be maintained so you are kept in the loop and not having to worry.
About: I've had several types of animals throughout my whole life so I have plenty of experience. I've cared for dogs, cats, reptiles, small animals, etc. I feel comfortable caring for pets of all sizes, ages, and temperaments. My schedule is currently fairly flexible. It's easy for me to adjust my routine to care for and spend time with your pet throughout the day. I'll make sure that your pet is comfortable and well cared for while you're away. I'm happy to do drop in visits, walks, or house sitting. I'll follow the instruction given to me and keep you updated with messages and photos.
About: Hello! I’ve been dogsitting/housesitting for at least 3 years now if not more. I adore meeting new doggos and learning about all of their little quirks. I am very committed to making sure I stick to the rules you have and I find communication very valuable. Of course, above all else I love having a connection with your fur baby and being able to be there for them whenever you need. For the next month or two I’ll likely be available most of the day every day. Currently unemployed but looking into other jobs and I start my last year of school in August. Again I’m more than happy to meet with you and discuss schedule if you’re interested! In the couple times I have taken care of other’s pets I always make sure they’re safe. Whatever the pet parent’s standard is, I follow. It’s important to keep a pattern with our pets so they don’t feel too uncomfortable with their owner being gone. I also provide frequent updates if the pet parent prefers.
