“Kiki was reliable, communicative, and clearly loves dogs. She followed all instructions perfectly, kept us updated with photos, and our dog came home happy and relaxed. Couldn’t ask for a better sitter—will definitely book again.”


“This was our second time using Laura. She communicates amazing and sends pictures and video. She always leaves the house cleaner than when she found it. She truly is an amazing sitter and I feel blessed to have found her.”


About: I love animals. Super excited to work with you and your fur baby. Working with animals is a passion for me. Animals and I have a connection that makes them feel comfortable and at home. Of course it also entertains me in the mean time. I currently have a puppy that’s a year and a half that lives with me and my Husband. I also have a husky that's 4 yrs old that lives with my dad. I grew up around animals and it’s always a pleasure to be able to work with your fur baby. As far as special skills, I’m able to maintain control of the dog on walks as well as in home while providing the upmost care for your baby. Looking forward to meet you and your furry family. I am a college student taking cosmetology classes Monday- Friday from 5pm- 10pm. I work part time jobs that are based off my schedule during that week. (Uber, DoorDash) I am beyond flexible for you and your furry kids. I am closely located by a park. I am very active and loving. I will spend extra quality time with your furry baby to make sure they are comfortable during my time with them.

About: I have had dogs my whole life, and I have worked with all kinds of pets professionally for 5 years! I have worked at two different doggy daycare and boarding facilities, (that also have cats) and I am a co-manager at one currently! I love my job and am looking to expand my career. I can administer medications and follow a strict feeding schedule. I work with pups and cats of all age. I work full time and do school full time, but I do them on different days of the week! Over night sitting is something I am usually always available for (very rarely I’m not available) and I love getting to study/be outside! I care for pets as if they are a human. Pets deserve nothing but respect, and same goes for the owners privacy. I believe in keeping a safe, clean and healthy environment for pets, and no job is too big or too small. Owners are always welcome to ask me questions, ask for more background info, etc. I also always walk with pepper spray to keep myself, and the fur babies safe.

“Ashleigh came through for us when our friend had a family emergency and was unable to stay this weekend to watch our pups. It was short notice and she was still able to take the best care. We have her booked for a future stay as well! Couldn’t recommend her more - great communication, so good with the pups and left our place just as we did! ☺️ we also have dogs that don’t get along and have to be separated in our home and she did great with this!”


About: I would love to dog sit for you! I have a dog of my own and I’ve helped raise dogs all of my life. I love playing with high energy dogs as well as lounging around with the older ones. I have taken care of many friends and family’s dogs and I enjoy it! I can also help with basic training such as “sit, stay, and shake”. I work a part time job that allows me to have flexibility so I am available anytime with the exception of 2-4 hour jobs that I may have in the mornings/afternoons on some days. You can trust me with your fur babies while you are gone! I love animals and I would never hurt them. I have helped take care of animals my whole life so I can handle tough situations. I am also very responsible in remembering medications that your pet may need and when to feed/ take out to potty/ and play with them.

About: I have loved dogs since childhood and over the last 11 years I have fostered and adopted senior dogs to give them a forever home. I’m currently home full-time, so your dog will have my full attention, company, and care around the clock. Whether it’s belly rubs, gentle walks, or just relaxing together, I make sure each dog feels at home. I have a secure, pet-friendly home with plenty of space and a calm environment—perfect for seniors, anxious pups, or dogs that just need some extra TLC. I have a big fenced yard with a doggy door so they can come and go as they please. I just lost my senior boxer, Taylor, so it’s just me and my big rescue, Hank, a hound mix. I’ve cared for countless dogs in this home, including special need seniors.

“Brooke had to go through a severe storm at our house that took out power to half of the city. She kept Belle, who is terrified of storms, comfortable and safe until we were able to get home hours later. We can't thank her enough.”


About: Hello! I have three dogs and a ferret, I have always grown up with all kinds of animals. My life is structured around my dogs, they are my family, we are out walking, playing inside, chewing on yummy bones or napping with warm blankets. I have years of experience and love enjoying life with dogs being a part of it. I want to care for your family as I care for mine. I have been dog walking / cat house sitting for family and friends for a couple years and I really enjoy spending time with those animals, I'd love to get to know yours! We have a schedule of bathing, flea and tick treatments and special medication for my older chihuahua every month. My older chihuahua requires daily medication as well. I am very personable with my dogs, I speak to them often, they're definitely in the loop of things and get treats often. My dogs are my best buddies, I see all animals that way. <3

“Thank You Isabella! She is professional, personable and did a great job with our 3 labs and 1 cat. She kept us informed and sent some great pictures. We'll definitely use Isabella in the future. Thanks again !”


“What an absolute treasure to have Mary and Morgan taking care of my precious fur babies and my house full of plants, too! They were amazing and made me feel so confident in the care they provided to my two 90lbs people-loving lap- dogs! In fact Mary showered them with so much love and attention, I think they were hoping she was with me when I came home! Excellent communication prior, during, and day of return-even a special treat when I arrived back! Highly recommend this dynamic duo for your pet’s happiness, safety, and comfort as well as your own peace of mind while traveling! Thank you ladies!”

After a life changing period in my life, I have decided to devote more time to enjoy the things I like to do.
