I have booked with her many times and she always does an excellent job. One day while I was out of town, she even took the time to help a poor lost dog that had taken refuge on my front porch. She is a great pet sitter and a very compassionate person!

Victoria is our go-to sitter. She's amazing at communicating with us and takes the best pictures of our pets. She takes additional time on the small details, like even leaving a Christmas card and treats for the animals. Thank you Victoria.

Samantha did an amazing job with my three cats! They are very spoiled and needy and require a little of extra attention. She was very attentive and sent a lot of pictures so I was able to see her interactions with them. I could not be more pleased with the service she provided. My cats are my babies, and it felt great that I knew I could trust her completely!!

About: I have been taking care of dogs since I was 18. I taught my dog play dead. I also taught my mom’s dog to have great recall. I love dogs and am very passionate about them. I am currently working almost full time but I am available 2 days for sure free. I will also come before and after work to make sure that the pets are ok! I will make sure anything that could be poisonous will be out of reach. I will also check that the animals are acting like their normal selves.

Melissa was absolutely wonderful and gave me total peace of mind while I was away. She was reliable, communicative, and clearly cared about my dog like her own. I really appreciated the regular updates and photos—it made such a difference knowing everything was going smoothly. She followed all instructions perfectly and went above and beyond to make sure my dog was happy and comfortable during each visit. It’s clear she takes her role seriously and genuinely loves what she does. I would 100% book with Melissa again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring sitter!

My clients can rest assure that they will be provided the highest degree of professionalism and heartfelt pet care for their four-legged family members.

I wanted to extend my heartfelt gratitude for taking care of my K & A. Your dedication, care, and attention to detail made my time away much easier knowing they were in such good hands. It was clear that Annie treated them with care and affection as if they were her own. The updates and photos were reassuring and made me smile and feel at ease. Annie went above and beyond facilitating a smooth process while me being in the hospital. Outstanding communication. She is a reliable and caring dog sitter. You truly made a difference, and I'm so thankful for your help. My babies certainly chose you! ☺️

Mark was amazing! He was extremely attentive during each visit and communicated really well, sending lots of photos that gave us total peace of mind. He truly went out of his way to keep us updated on how our furry baby was doing. We had to book last minute, and even though it was a hectic time because of the holidays, Mark was more than willing to work with us. That meant so much to us. We will absolutely be using him again and would definitely recommend him to anyone looking for someone reliable and caring! 🫶🏼🫶🏼

Emerald helped us with our dog at very last minute, before even having met him or our family, and she did a wonderful job. She was on time and thorough with her walks and care of our dog. She also left us notes in rover about his status and whether or not he pooped/peed and was fed. We appreciated everything she did so much and will surely hire her again!! Thank you!

Christopher and Abigail are EXACTLY the folks you want taking care of your furry fam. I received excellent communication, thorough check ins, good feedback, and patience (as I was navigating this app for the first time and in a panic). I appreciate how well they listened and the notes I received. My house was in perfect order when I returned. My animals were happy and well taken care of. I could not ask for more!

About: Hello! I'm Hollis and I've been a lifelong dog lover with years of experience caring for furry friends of all shapes and sizes. I understand that dogs are a part of the family and it is important to find someone to treat and look after your pup as one their own. I have 2 rescues and a large breed dog who all have their unique personalities and quirks. So whether it's a playful pup or a senior dog needing gentle attention, I provide reliable and compassionate care tailored to each pet's needs. I also have experience training and working with service dogs along with working with therapy animals as a mental health professional specializes in animal assisted therapy . I have a senior golden girl who is partially deaf and has arthritis so I am comfortable working with senior dogs as well. Services Offered: Dog Walking: Regular exercise to keep your dog happy and healthy. Drop-In Visits: Quick check-ins for feeding, playtime, and potty breaks. Why Choose Me? Dependable: Your pet's well-being and routine are my top priorities. Experienced: I have had dogs all of my life and I have extensive training in understanding dog body language and behavior. Flexible: Customizable services to fit your schedule and your pet's preferences. Passionate: I treat every dog as if they were my own, with love and respect. Let's schedule a meet-and-greet to discuss how I can provide the best care for your beloved companion. Your dog's happiness is my goal! Contact me to book your pet's next adventure with me! I am in the process of transitioning jobs that will give me more flexibility in my daily work schedule and I also work from home 2 to 3 days a week. During our meet and greet I will ask questions like how gates close, any holes in fences, if your dog is a digger, if your dog is leash reactive or reactive around other dogs, best way to enter the home so the dog isn’t scared or freighted, and how you would like your home locked up after the visit has been completed.

Melissa is incredible! She went above and beyond to take care of our two dogs while we were gone for a few days. She made sure they were fed, walked, played with, and loved. We would absolutely look forward to asking her to look after our little buddies again!

Lucia is pretty much the only one my shy scaredy cat likes, she immediately won Ave over and got Ave to trust her! I feel 1000x better when I’m gone knowing Lucia is there. Would HIGHLY recommend and will continue to rebook with her (pretty sure this is the third or fourth time - every one has been excellent). Also very communicative, responsible, nice and takes plenty of pics! Thank you so much, really appreciate you.
