“If I could leave 10+ stars out of 5; I would! Jordan was amazing and so reassuring! She noticed my dog’s eye was a little red and offered to bring meds for my dog… so thoughtful! To add to her awesomeness, she also was flexible with her schedule and was able to accommodate me when I requested to add another drop in day of. My dogs loved her… it was obvious during our meet and greet and on photos. Will certainly book again and recommend to others.”

“I entrusted Jeanne with my dogs for five days, marking the first time I had left them alone at home. She performed dependable drop-in visits, maintained their feeding schedule, refreshed their water, and provided photo updates. She did an excellent job ensuring my picky eater was properly fed. I greatly valued her professionalism and would highly recommend her.”

“Hannah was an amazing sitter! She took great pictures of my cat as well as pictures to make sure I knew he had food, clean litter and water! I would definitely recommend her and will be using her again in the future!”

“Beth helped me out when my sitter fell through and I was already out of town. She was able to jump in with barely any notice AND I cannot express how thankful I was for her flexibility to help me out on a holiday. My two dogs looked so happy in all of the picture updates she sent. I would definitely book again :)”

“Teresa took excellent care of my two cats during an overnight trip. She was extremely communicative during her visits and worked to resolve issues with my litter robot. Highly recommend!”

About: i’ve taken care of animals since I was a kid and have had lots of dogs that I absolutely adore. I love just being around animals and will always do my best to make them feel safe and comfortable I am currently a college student and I want a job where I have more flexibility. I have a lot of free time and to me would rather spend it with animals over other things. I am very good with lots of different dogs and am very attentive so in your home I will make sure to be respectful of their space and treat them with the upmost care.
“Haley was incredible! We were nervous about leaving our puppy alone for the first time, but she came to do a meet and greet to get to know our puppy which made us feel so much better! She always gave lots of picture updates, made sure he pottied and had lots of play time during her visits as well! We plan on booking her again if we need any other drop-in visits! Thanks, Haley!!”

“Felecia was so awesome! Resun and Roxy absolutely love her I can tell and are very comfortable with her. They even let her bathe them lol. We appreciate her patience during the 2 meet and greets as well for she did not have to do that. She took great care of our home EVEN washed their dog bowls out🫂☺️ We are grateful to know her and be able to travel freely now without worry. Thank you Felecia! See you again soon”


“Alyssa is attentive and takes great care of our babies while we are away. We have used her services several times and will continue to in the future. Also she takes the best candid pet pics!”

“Stephanie is amazing, she has taken great care of my dogs and she is very professional. She goes above and beyond her service, and she is great communicator as well. My dogs love her. She is my favorite sitter. 10 stars!!!”

“Anna is a stand out dog sitter! She is always on time and great with communication. She is accommodating and amazing with our dogs, even though they’re a bit rowdy!”

“We hired Kylie to take care of our babies for 10 days and I couldn’t be more pleased. I was very nervous as this was the first time leaving them in the hands of someone else for so long. She gave constant updates and took care of my babies just as she said she would. She was in constant communication and everything went smooth. She has no problem giving me pictures and updates. I will happily use her again in the future. If you’re looking for a reliable, knowledgeable, friendly sitter — Kylie is the one. Can’t thank her enough!”

About: I started working as a vet tech at 17 and have two years of boarding experience at a veterinary hospital, well versed in schedules and procedures including medication and special needs. Currently working but flexible schedule, willing to work with your needs! Older/less active dogs preferred but happy to play with a puppy when so necessary. I worked directly beneath the boarding manager and trained new staff in observation, care schedules, and proper safety protocols. I also form bonds of trust with any animal I’m working with to ensure their and my comfort.
“Ashlynn is wonderful! She was flexible with my changing schedule and kept in contact with me throughout my trip. She sent lots of pictures and my dog looked very happy spending time with her. I will definitely book Ashlynn for my next trip!”
“Zara definitely has a way with animals. My dog doesn’t like everyone and he warmed right up to her. I would highly recommend her and I hope she’ll be able to watch Petey many more times in the future.”

Mary was phenomenal. Took great care of my kitties and they seemed to adore her. She was there at the stated time every day and sent wonderful pictures that really made me feel so much better about leaving my cats in her care. Fantastic! She even coaxed my shy kitty out after just a few visits.

McKayla did a great job caring for my community cat, made sure the food was put out, sent helpful updates, and included pictures so I could see that everything was okay. I really appreciated her communication and reliability, especially since caring for a feral cat can be a little different than caring for an indoor pet. I would definitely recommend her and would book with her again.
My wife and I had to leave my Pittie for five days. We saw Alyssa’s reviews and immediately contacted her for an in-house meeting. I was very impressed with the meeting and asked if she could watch Nina for us. During the five days she watched Nina, she was terrific!! Every time she came to our home, she sent us pictures of Nina and explained how the day went with her. She even bought Nina a couple of toys. As much as we missed Nina, we knew she was being well taken care of. It’s hard to leave our pets, but having someone like Alyssa makes it much easier. She was the best!!

Rodney has been amazing!! I had to go out of town unexpectedly for an extended period of time and after our first meeting, I knew I’d found someone who would take care of my babies while I was away and I wouldn’t have to worry. He was so communicative and easy to work with and my 3 fluffy kitties were well looked after! As a huge bonus he also helped keep my place clean while I was gone so I didn’t come home to a thick layer of cat hair everywhere (long haired cats are fine aren’t they?). Thank you so much Rodney, you’re the best!!!
