“We are so grateful to have found Laurie! She took such wonderful care of our dogs while we were away—attentive, thoughtful, and incredibly kind. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in such capable hands. Laurie provided great updates, was always communicative, and went above and beyond to make sure our pups were happy and comfortable. We came home to relaxed, content dogs and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter they can truly trust. Thank you, Laurie!”

About: Hi I’m Alexis. Dogs have always been my favorite animals. I aim to keep your buddy comfortable, taken care of, and engaged. I have a lot of energy to play with your dog, and love to go on runs. I am more than happy to accommodate any special needs they have. I have experience training two puppies over the past five years, potty training, etc. I live by a park where your dog will be able to run freely. I will love and take care of your dog like it’s my own. I have a 2 year old short hair named Legend, he’s playful and gets along really well with other dogs, he loves meeting new animals, and is always exploring. Please do not hesitate to reach out.

“I can’t say enough good things about Zacharia! He house sat for us and did an amazing job and was super nice! We received daily photo updates which really put us at ease while on vacation. Watering our indoor and outdoor plants was also not a problem for him. Great communication and prompt responses times. We really couldn’t ask for a better sitter for our fur babies. We will definitely be using Zacharia in the future!”


“Our first time having Christian house/cat sit for us and first time for the kitties too....all went great!! Came home to unstressed and happy kitties?. She is responsible and responsive- gave us regular reports and photos too. Will be having her sit again soon for 2+wks - can relax and know that all will be well with the kitties and our home!☺️”


“Amelia was very communicative, shared some photos, and seemed to have a nice couple of days w/ our dog. She was on time to our initial meet and ensured our dog was cared for before she left, even as our timeline shifted on return a couple of times. On top of it all, she left the house as clean or cleaner than she found it. We would definitely use her again if the occasion arises.”


“Kyla did an amazing job looking after our pups last minute. She had great communication, followed our pups routine and kept me updated throughout the. She was also incredibly sweet with our pups!”


“We last minute were scrambling to did a dog sitter while we got married when our other one we had booked cancelled. Sydney was so great with our golden retriever and made sure he got a walk and loves. We trusted her and would highly recommend her!”



“She is such a dog lover!! It definitely showed in her first interaction with my pups. My shepherd is a rescue and can be afraid of people but she got him to come to her with no issues and I can tell he was comfortable with her from the start. She treated my dogs like they were her own fur babies, I will 100% book with her again”
