1. Nexsy m.


“Nexsy was incredible. She helped on short notice and still snuck in a meet and greet. Polite, kind, and very understanding of our dogs. She went above and beyond during the time she spent with them by doing some helpful behavioral training. We felt they were in safe and capable hands. Highly recommended!”


2. Mary M.

“Mary was a literal godsend. We booked her kind of last minute for a 4 day weekend and she was an absolute rockstar!! She was great with our animals, very respectful and clear with her communication. She did exactly what we agreed too and even went ABOVE AND BEYOND to make sure our pets were well cared for and safe. We even had an incident were one of the dogs was refusing to go back inside when the visit time was over and instead of getting frustrated and upset, she remained professional and was extremely smart in managing the situation and getting it under control. We would absolutely use her again and HIGHLY recommend her to anyone who is looking for a true pro in animal care.”


3. Mary C.

“Mary did a great job pet sitting our dog Chelsey. She sent updates and pics to give us peace of mind and left the house clean upon our return.”


4. Samantha L.

“Samantha is kind, knowledgeable, entirely reliable and more than fluent reader and astute observer of pups: a truly gifted person. She kept us up to date with photos and stories & we were reassured by her care and insight.”


5. Ace G.

“Ace did a fantastic job with our busy puppy! She kept us updated and sent many pictures of our happy dog. The house was left in great condition! We would certainly use Ace again any time and recommend her 100#. Thank you, Ace for a great job. You put our minds at ease.”


6. Haley L.

“Haley was a natural with our 2 Goldens. From the 1st meet and greet to staying with our girls for a few days, we never had to worry. We came home to a clean house and happy, tired dogs ! We will definitely have Haley back soon! 😀”


7. Kevin T.

“Kay stayed with our three pups on very short notice. I’m so grateful we found him. Kay was great with communication, we came home to happy pups and a clean home. We highly recommend Kay.”


8. Jessica B.
“Jessica did a great job caring for our pets while we were away on vacation. Not only did she take care of the essentials, but she also interacted with them and made them feel loved.”


9. Jayda "Adara" W.

“Adara did a fabulous job caring for our fur baby, Toby, in our home when we went away for the weekend! Toby is a bit (ok, VERY) quirky, and he doesn't do well with changes to his routine. Adara went above and beyond when caring for him. We felt very comfortable with her in our home, as well. Toby gives Adara a 10/10 for pet sitting, and so do we!”


10. Kaitlynn S.

“Kaitlynn was amazing! My dogs have special needs and their care instructions are very specific. She kept their routine and did perfect! She gave my dogs much love and attention. She is the only sitter I would trust with my dogs. After I got back home, I asked one of my dogs (she uses button communication) if Kaitlynn was nice and she said yes! 🐾”


11. Julissa A.

Thank you so much for your hard and amazing work!”


12. Adam P.
“I couldn’t be happier with Adam as our pet sitter. He walks my terrier mix three times a week and is always dependable, friendly, and caring. My dog absolutely loves him. They don’t just go for walks—they play and have fun too. It’s such a relief knowing my pup is in great hands.”

17. Emma M.
About: I have a lifelong love for dogs and extensive experience caring for them. Growing up, I had a dog of my own and continue to share my home with a family dog. Over the years, I’ve also helped care for friends’ and neighbors’ dogs, giving me hands-on experience with different breeds, temperaments, and needs. What sets me apart from other sitters is my genuine passion for dogs and my familiarity with both puppies and senior dogs. I’m comfortable with training puppies, including basic commands and housebreaking, as well as providing gentle care for older dogs who may require extra attention and patience. I understand the importance of keeping pets comfortable, happy, and safe while their owners are away. I am a full-time student at Springfield College and currently unemployed, so I have a flexible schedule. This allows me to dedicate plenty of time to pet care during the day and week. I can easily fit walks, playtime, and any special needs into my routine. When caring for pets, whether in my home or the client’s home, I make sure to follow their usual routines to keep them comfortable and happy. This includes feeding them on schedule, giving plenty of water, taking them for regular walks, and providing lots of playtime and attention. I always create a safe and calm environment, and I’m careful to watch for any signs that a pet might be stressed or unwell. I also make sure to keep their space clean and respect any special needs or instructions from the owner.

About: I watch dogs and babies take them from family plan family members and neighbors when they need a babysitter and I also work around whatever the dogs needs are I have appointments and stuff but I work around the animals that I have and I have playdates for my dog and other dogs so they get a lot of activity and a lot of work I'm around what band needs and schedules are This is safe and friendly environment I take the dogs on walks I let them play outside I take them to the dog park and they're on a schedule for eating


19. Logan A.

“Logan did a great job caring for our shih tzu while we were away. He was gentle and caring with her and sent regular updates and pictures! He stayed at our home with our dog and when we returned we found our home was spotless. We could tell how much our dog loved him by her run back and forth when he came over after we got home! I would highly recommend Logan.”


20. Amanda S.

“Amanda was not only flexible, regularly in contact during her visits, and professional but amazing with my dogs! She took such great and thorough care od them and put me at ease while i was away. I 100% recommend!”
