“Karen communicated wonderfully, followed our requests and send photos of the babies. We were super pleased with her and will be having her back again soon next time we are away!”
“Panny was phenomenal! He took care of our pups and our home with great care and attention to detail. Our dogs loved him from the moment he arrived and he kept us up to date with pics/updates throughout our entire trip. We returned home to a clean house and happy pups!”
“Alexa took great care of our great pyr rescue, Jasper, for the weekend. Jasper has had some trauma in his past life so he has some quirks which Alexa handled very well. I was so happy to find a sitter to stay at our home with him, as keeping his routine and staying in a familiar place is important for this guy. I highly recommend Alexa as a pet sitter, she is very responsible and sweet with dogs!”
“Taigh was a lifesaver - he responded immediately to my last-minute request for help to watch our little dog and stay at our house for the long weekend. He took great care of both the dog and our house, kept us posted as to our dog's goings on, and even had his mom check in on the dog when he was going to be at work for a long stint. We really appreciated the photos and texts with updates, as well as with his stripping the bed and washing the sheets. We would definitely recommend Taigh and plan to use him again for future pet/house sitting needs.”
“Helena was fantastic. She did a great job watching my dog. Very affectionate and loving, neat and tidy around the house, great communicator, gave him his medication. Just a fantastic experience with Helena. Highly recommend.”
About: I worked at a dog groomers for 6 years. I have worked with just about every breed and every type of temperament. Before that I did dog walking and pet sitting. I have worked with a variety of animals including cats, birds, turtles, and goats. I have a flexible job helping with goats in the summertime, and I am available weekdays and weekends. I am able to spend a lot of time with your pet. I have a lot of experience with dogs, I want to give you the utmost reassurance they will be safe with me. I have a fenced in yard, and access to lots of great walking trails and beaches.
“We knew our high energy pups were in the absolute best hands with Paige!! They loved her immediately and our anxious doggo was totally at ease. She sent us a bunch of photos and left the house very clean! We were grateful to find such a genuine and caring person to love on our dogs while out of town— already planning to use Paige as a dog/house sitter in the future.”
“While we were away for a medical procedure, our 15 year old dog became quite ill, requiring lots of attention and complex caregiving — and house cleaning — as well as comforting. Caitlin managed all parts of this VERY difficult booking, which was much more than she bargained for, with competence and grace , and kept her safe and comfortable while we scheduled the Vet and raced home. We were so relieved to have such close and competent attention for our little girl, and grateful for Caitlin‘s grace and confidence at a precarious time. We can’t say enough good about Caitlin and we can’t thank herenough.”
“Heather was amazing! We used her for our wedding and she was so wonderful to have! She was super easy to get into contact with and was very reliable. My in laws were so relieved to have their pup in the best care!”
“Marie took care of our new puppy and older dog while we were gone for a day trip. Marie is a terrific communicator, sent tons of pics and updates, and took wonderful care of our dogs. We feel so lucky to have found her!”
About: I have taken care of dogs my entire life. My family has always had multiple dogs in our home and a house isn’t a home without a dog. For years I have cared for friends and family dogs while they were either at work or vacation. Now that I am retired I have a lot more time to give helping others who need support to care for their dog. I am available all hours of the day and night. I can pick up dogs or they can be brought to my home. I am semi retired and this allows me lots of flexibility in my schedule. I have a fenced in yard that backs up to conservation land that I use to exercise my own dogs. If allowed by owner, walks on the beach at low tide is a favorite activity for our dogs. During the summers I walk the many trails this area has to offer, many with ponds the dogs love to swim in.
“Caitlin is amazing!!! She was phenomenal with our highly energy pup. She took such amazing care of Millie and sent great pictures and updates. And Millie loves her so much. Can not recommend Caitlin enough. She is the best!”

“Isabelle was amazing and took such great care of our pup! She kept him entertained and sent us lots of pics and updates. Most importantly, she was genuinely kind and caring. We couldn’t have left him in better hands!”
“Jackie is an excellent, highly dependable, compassionate dog sitter and we would highly recommend her! She took great care of our golden, Cam, who loved his special one on one time with her. She spoiled him with great walk, massages and treats for the week we were gone. We enjoyed the pics and updates, knowing he was in the best hands. I think Cam was disappointed to have his holiday with Jackie end but we look forward to having her back again. Thank you Jackie! Two paws up from Cam🥰”
