Lindsey is amazing and was a life saver for our entire family! Our dog does not do well out of her element and we had to go away for 4 days. Lindsey, sent pics, videos, cute messages, and reassuring notes for us that made us feel at ease. And, most importantly, Hershee was happy!

Ian was ah-mazing with my burtoncito 🥰 always with him, making sure he had everything he needed and even paying special attention when I was having work done in my home that week. I couldn’t ask for a better care taker for my fur-babes and currently booking again! Thanks Ian!

Brianna treated my dogs like they were her own. I was able to relax and enjoy my vacation with no worries. In fact, I think the dogs were a little disappointed when she left and I came home.

Nicole was absolutely fantastic with our St. Bernard, Layla. Because Layla is so large, we’re always a bit nervous about who can confidently handle her—but Nicole immediately put us at ease. She was calm, capable, and incredibly playful and loving with Layla from the start. Nicole was also very communicative and proactive throughout, keeping us updated and sent us photos. We would highly recommend Nicole and will absolutely be working with her again!

She left the house spotless and went above and beyond to keep everything in our boys' world as business as usual as possible while we were away. We know when we take a longer trip they'll be in great hands! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Marie was such a great dog sitter for our two senior pups! She gave us updates on their day, photos, and I can tell that the dogs had a wonderful time. They went on many adventurous walks. She also took great care of the house while staying. She was communicative whenever she had questions. We will absolutely be booking with her again next time we need a dog sitter.

I cannot recommend Zhanna highly enough! She took exceptional care of Bella, my 15.5-year-old corgi. She went above and beyond to ensure Bella felt safe, happy, and loved. Her kindness and attention to detail were evident from the moment we met, and it is clear that she genuinely cares about her job. Bella’s unique needs were met with the utmost care, and I appreciated how Zhanna was thorough in following instructions. She also communicated well, giving me peace of mind while staying at my place because she sent daily pictures of my corgi. I would 100% use Zhanna again, so if you're looking for a pet sitter, especially one who will stay overnight with your fur baby, I wholeheartedly recommend Zhanna!!!

John is a rockstar. He stepped in for us in a moment’s notice to take care of our dog, Adam. He went above and beyond to be with our pup and help maintain his routine in our home. Anyone would be lucky to welcome John into their home to spend time with their fur babies. I know Adam is looking forward to hanging out with John again the next time we need a sitter.

About: I learn quick and fast. I’ve had dogs my whole life and couldn’t live without them. I make sure they have what they need and will go out of my way to make sure they’re safe and happy! I go to Penn State for school. I’m home for summer and I’m free throughout my break. I love pet sitting and meeting all animals! I’m good at cleaning and making sure your home is tidy. If there any damages, I’ll do whatever I can do to fix them. My priority is to make sure your pet is happy and safe.

Robin is by far the best sitter I’ve ever worked with. She is incredibly detail oriented and followed my 4+ pages of instructions for my two cats, and went above and beyond to really bond with them. I got regular updates and never worried for a single second, I knew they were in the best of hands. Robin truly has a skill with and love for cats and I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone needing care. I am the type to worry when I leave my cats, and Robin soothed any concern I had, and I had a worry free vacation like I had so needed. Robin truly cares for the cats and their owners alike. She went above and beyond to change their litter and cleaned my apartment at the end. It’s something I’d never ask, but when you come home from a long day of travel, that clean apartment is the best thing to come home to. Words cannot express enough just how wonderful she is and how good she is at pet sitting. I can tell my cats already miss her, and I’m so excited for us all for when she cares for them next- without a doubt she is our new regular sitter, we all love her so much!

Auston and Kaitlyn our lifesavers. They were able to take care of our lovely cats and dogs complete with a lot of special care needed for a couple of our four legged friends. They were able to juggle our needs with everything going on in their life and we were just blessed to find them. I would highly recommend them for your daily pet care or overnight.
