“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!”

“Continues to be great with Dash. My puppy is always in good spirits when i come home from work, I can tell that he gets the socialization he needs playing with Tori. She even tired him out nicely once for an evening car ride later that day. I was very grateful.”


“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!!”

“Melissa was an amazing pet sitter. She was on time for check ins and gave a thorough report of activities. We will definitely be reaching out to Melissa again!”

“Incredible sitter, Mark really took the time to get to know each of our babies andtend to them individually. He swung by and added an extra visit for them in his spare time, and even walked them over 4 miles out of the kindness of his heart. I highly recommend this man if you're looking for someone who will care for your each of your animals on one , someone who will truly care for them, and is flexible, then look no further. Mark thank you brother, I truly appreciate you.”

“Kelly was amazing! She checked on both of our dogs for multiple days and took them on a walk each visit! Always on time, very loving and sent lots of pictures. We could not recommend her more!”

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.
About: I can’t remember a time when I didn’t have pets in our family. I have had many beloved pets growing up, including; cats, dogs, hamsters, and fish. Currently I have a pug and two wonderful rescue cats named beans and biscuits. As a pet lover and owner myself I understand the difficulty of finding someone who will care for your pets and respect your home. 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. All pets are unique and deserve undivided attention. I would love to be given the opportunity to care for your pet. I am available every Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. Thank you for your interest feel free to reach out!
“Tawny was excellent with our two dogs. They loved her and had no issues while we were gone. She listened to and executed all instructions to a tee. She was also very flexible with our last minute weekend trip. We will use her primarily again if she's available and would highly recommend her to anyone.”

“Jessica was an absolute lifesaver. My dog had just bitten a neighbor around 5pm, and I was overwhelmed and unsure if I could even trust someone new with him. But Jessica showed up just a few hours later at 8pm—calm, confident, and completely unfazed. She handled him with care and patience, and he actually responded really well to her. I couldn’t believe how smooth it went given the circumstances. Her professionalism and quick response gave me so much peace of mind when I really needed it. Highly recommend her to anyone, especially those with reactive or anxious dogs!”

About: I love animals especially dogs! I regularly volunteer at a dog shelter, have owned dogs my whole life, and believe every dog deserves to have the best day ever! I am available for walks, taking them to the park, playing fetch, or coming into your home for visits. I’m currently in between jobs so I have lots of time to spend with your pet! If you need walks daily or vacation I’m your girl I make sure the pets I’m caring for are safe, have water and food, activity, and a comfy place to sit, I am willing to follow your instructions
“Izzy is awesome! She has a very calm and positive attitude towards taking care of our dogs. We were running late one night and she happened to be driving by our house from another one of her clients, she reached out to me to see if she could be of help because she remembered our dogs 5pm feeding time! Incredible! Love her!”

“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!”

“Alyson, Thank you for being there for Miss Mabel. She loves affection and attention and you gave her just the right balance of that and listened to her when she was not fond of walking. Excellent! Thank you! We appreciate you and had complete peace of mind during your three visits today while we were an hour or so away.”

“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! ☺️”

“Heather was great! She sent text and picture updates, brought toys, and was great with my high-energy dog. I will not hesitate to book her in the future and recommend her to anyone who asks for a pet sitter referral!”

“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!”

Samantha was so sweet and took amazing care of my two cats! She was extremely communicative, quick to reply, and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. She did great with my shy kitties, which meant so much to me. I’ve already rebooked her since then and plan to continue using her in the future. Highly recommend Samantha’s care!

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.
