“(Disclosure: Jill is a family member) Jill has watched our dog Lilo for years and has always taken great care of her. This time, we were in Cancun for a week and left our dog in her very capable hands. Lilo has a medical condition that requires her to receive oral medication (via pill and syringe) as well as having very strict food instructions, and Jill is comfortable with whatever we need her to do. She left our house as clean as when we left it, and even watered our newly planted grass and landscaping. I highly recommend Jill for whatever your pet needs!”


“We were worried to leave our dog Ellie all week while we were in vacation but she was in great hands with Tracy! I got lots of pictures and check ins which was reassuring!”

“The most marvelous dog and cat sitter ever!!!!!! Stephanie made me not worry at all on our vacation!!! I would use her anytime I need someone! Top notch!”


“Lisa was wonderful! She came to do a meet and greet and Poppy was instantly drawn to her. She sent updates and kept me informed and I felt very comfortable having her there to watch Poppy while we were away. I would definitely recommend. Thank you Lisa!!”


About: Experienced with senior dogs, and I understand patience and gentleness they require. I’m attentive to their routine and health needs. I will treat them like family. I do not work and am available to sit for your dogs or they can come to my home. I will treat them like family. I do not have any other animals and could give my full attention to your dog. I have a peaceful environment at home and welcome the company.

“Brooklyn was able to help me out last minute and was great. She paid a lot of attention to my dogs and they really liked her. She communicated well and was fully invested in making sure my dogs were well-taken care of while I was gone.”


“We are so thankful to have found Bree. She provided constant updates and was always willing to check in more if we wanted. We will 100% be using her for our extended vacations.”


“Hannah helped me out with a last minute request when my sitter got COVID. She was awesome!! Kept me updated and took great care of my pets. Highly recommend booking with Hannah!”


“Amy was amazing at everything. My dog is very fearful and she accommodated to his needs by meeting him before and interacted with him to gain his trust. She treated him amazing and was very communicative during her stay. He trusted her right away and I cannot be more thankful for finding her! She stayed at our home with our dog for 10 days and everything was perfect!!”


“Brandi and Lu were excellent dog sitters. Our dogs fell in love with them immediately and I felt at ease knowing they were in good hands. We needed help with a sitter for a long trip last minute and they were so accommodating. Not only were they over communicative and followed all the instructions for our special girls, they were lovely house guests. They went above and beyond, and even brushed my fluffy dog. But most of all, my girls were happy. Will definitely be having them again! 🙏🏻🙏🏻”


“Hannah was great! Both my dog and cat are typically very nervous of new people, but they warmed up to Hannah very fast! She sent great updates and tons of pictures which I really appreciated. I will definitely book with her next time I go away!”


“Lydia is great with my dog Fiona! She takes care of her and plays with her!! Fiona loves when Lydia comes to watch her!! I would highly recommend Lydia for all your pet watching needs!!!”


About: I, Carter and my mother Mindy, have been pet owners our entire lives. We have experience with young, adult, and senior dogs. Along with experience in administering certain types of medications, and our house is blind dog friendly thanks to indoor gates and a fenced in and safe backyard. We’ve recently lost our last dog and don’t plan to get another animal companion, but we love to help people care for their furry companions temporarily as a way to give back to the same people who did such for us when we were pet owners. Mindy works from home and loves to work outside in her garden, which would mean a lot of outside time for your pet in our fenced in backyard. Carter is around more in the mornings and nights meaning if your animal is a “night owl” they shall still be cared for round the clock. We have a designated area for food and water in our house, along with many toys and bones from throughout the years. We are in a very safe neighborhood with a fenced in backyard and lots of room to run. Any animals living with us will always be treated with kindness and a sense of belonging no matter the duration of their stay!

“Let me start by saying I have two very senior rescues who both definitely have their quirks and needs. I was so nervous to leave Patch and Lilah during our vacation, because I had never left them since adopting them about a year ago. Tonie was INCREDIBLE! She has a vast knowledge of dogs and their needs. She sent me pictures of her outside playing with them, laying on the couch with them, etc. I will definitely hire Tonie again to watch the dogs for future vacations. She really truly cares about the pets she watches, that shows.”


About: Hi, I'm Rheagan! As a lifelong animal lover with two cats and a dog of my own, caring for pets is second nature to me. I've had the joy of living with and looking after a variety of animals over the years, and I truly enjoy getting to know each pet's unique personality. Whether your pet is playful and energetic or prefers a calm and quiet environment, I adapt to meet their needs and make them feel comfortable and cared for. I believe in building trust through patience, kindness, and respect-just like I do with my own fur family. I'd love the opportunity to meet your pet and give them the love and attention they deserve while you're away! I currently have a limited schedule to weekends. If you need services outside of that, feel free to send a request and I’ll let you know if I’m available. I am currently available for sittings, walks, and drop-ins Friday - Sunday 7am - 11pm. Your pet’s safety and comfort come first. I create a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment and follow routines that keep tails wagging and paws relaxed. With lots of love, attention, and respect for your pet’s needs, I treat every animal like my own.
