“Arleen, is the best pet sitter we have ever had. She was thorough in getting to know the needs of my pet and making sure she was well taken care of. She took her on walks, shared pictures, and spent time with her. I would highly recommend Arleen and give her more than 5 stars.”

About: Experienced with energetic and strong willed dogs. Experienced with structured care, consistent routines, and happy dogs :) Will love your pup like it’s my own Caring for pets is already a big part of my everyday life. My routine revolves around making sure my dog is walked, fed, and given plenty of attention throughout the day. Feel free to message me about availability! I typically am available whenever you need!! I have a very friendly and energetic Husky in my home who loves staying active. We go on walks around the neighborhood about every 2 hours for potty breaks, as well as mental and physical stimulation. We also occasionally enjoy car rides to the dog park for extra fun and exercise. Since my yard is unfenced, I have a secure outdoor lead available. If your dog enjoys spending time outside like mine, I’d be happy to accommodate that upon request. For safety and comfort, I also have a crate available and can crate your dog or mine as needed.
“Kim was so great! My dog Lexi was well cared for and happy when I picked her up. Kim shared pics and video while I was away, made me feel like my baby was in good hands. She was.”

“I can’t say enough about the excellent care my baby receives from Carrie. Gravy just loves to spend time with her and comes home so happy. I always feel at ease leaving her and know that she is in the best of hands ❤️.”

“Shanna was the best! She took great care of our energetic labs! We enjoyed the updates and pictures throughout their stay. Goose and Tater clearly enjoyed themselves. I’m certain they will look forward to staying with her again! Shanna is knowledgeable about dogs and their needs. You can rest easy that your pet is in capable hands!”


About: I’ve been caring for dogs my whole life, from growing up with multiple large farm dogs to now taking care of my small dachshund–chihuahua mix. Being around such a wide range of sizes and personalities has made me really adaptable and confident with different types of dogs. What sets me apart is my patience and attention to each pet’s individual needs. I have experience caring for senior dogs and pets that need extra support, including giving medications like pills, eye drops, and ear drops. I’m also very mindful of routines, knowing how important consistency is for keeping pets comfortable and stress-free. I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and building trust with them- It’s not just something I do, it’s something I look forward to. My goal is to make sure every pet feels safe, cared for, and at home, while giving owners peace of mind that their pet is in good hands. I am currently on summer break and I’m looking forward to committing my time to pet sitting! I have a completely open schedule for the next few months. At home, it’s me, my grandma, and our small chihuahua mix, Romeo. We spend a lot of time outdoors in our yard gardening, relaxing, and enjoying the summer, and Romeo loves being outside with us. We also take short car rides to a nearby park for walks and a change of scenery. Inside, pets have plenty of cozy spots to relax, including crates (if they’re used to one), quiet corners, and my room for extra comfort. I always make sure pets are supervised, safe, and sticking to their normal routines as much as possible. I’m mindful when introducing pets to Romeo and will always prioritize a calm, safe environment. If your pet prefers their own space or a more relaxed pace, I’m happy to accommodate that too. For care in a client’s home, I’m respectful of your space and will follow all instructions closely to keep your pet comfortable in their familiar environment. If your pet enjoys a calm, loving environment with light activity and lots of attention, they’ll fit right in here 😊
“Jasmine has been a blessing to me and my fur baby. I feel like she was heaven sent. Reign just 2 months old and we have never been apart but Jasmine made my uncomfortable go into ease within a few hours of having my baby. She sent so many updates, pics and videos. Jasmine and her kids are amazing. Children are very well manner and respectful. Nobody else will ever be able to keep Raign but Jasmine. She is now family. If I could rate her a 10 ⭐ I would.”
“Lori is absolutely amazing! She took such wonderful care of my cat Mellow while I was away, and I couldn’t be more grateful. Mellow is usually shy with new people, but he quickly warmed up to Lori thanks to her calm and loving energy. She kept me updated with sweet photos , videos and messages, which gave me total peace of mind. I came home to a very happy, relaxed cat—and a tidy home! Thank you, Lori, for treating Mellow like your own. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and trustworthy pet sitter!”

About: I have done it all: walks, playtime, training, overnight stays, house breaking puppies, etc. I am excited to meet your pup! My goal is to be respectful, fun, and kind. I currently work partime so am free in the afternoons! I will have my 7 month old daughter with me as my little helper 😉. I have the skills and knowledge to know how to respect and earn respect from your pup. Will make sure they feel safe and enjoy some time playing as well! As a mother and personal dog owner I have a nurturing spirit.
“Rachel was a phenomenal sitter. We were initially nervous about leaving our 3 pups for a 4-day visit but Rachel made the process as painless as possible for us. I was especially worried that my doggie would be too anxious to enjoy their stay; however I quickly learned that would not be an issue. Not only is she extremely efficient at taking care of your fur baby, she has a passion for animals I don’t think I’ve ever witnessed before. Please book with her if you get the chance, you will NOT regret it! Thank you again Rachel, we’ll see you soon 💙.”

“Debora took great care of our two miniature schnauzers and gave plenty of great updates and I know our dogs enjoyed their stay. I would highly recommend. Thanks again, Debora!”

“Baili is a plesent person. Got my puppies back, they were cold up on pick up, one had diarrhea, so he ate something he wasn't supposed too. She only gave updates when I asked for it, even tho I requested random updates. But I'm happy to have them back alive and for the most part well”

“Megan was great with my 2 boys. She sent me updates and pictures. They settled right in. She worked with me and a few things as well. I would highly recommend and ill def be using her again.”

“Morgan is sweet, patient, flexible, and our dogs always love her! Our pup didn’t even say goodbye this time, he led her right up to her front door so the fun could begin!”

“Emma was amazing!! We had an emergency and at a moments notice, she communicated & worked out her schedule to be available. She is so sweet & our dog loved her! She sent us pics to let us know that our pup was happy & getting lots of attention. We will definitely book with her again.”
“Marley and Cali LOVED staying with Megan and her family. In fact, they did not want to come home! Marley loved swimming in the pool and chasing balls while Cali enjoyed playing with the kids and bonding with the chicken, Howie. Megan took fantastic care of our dogs and we are thrilled to have found such a wonderful sitter.”

“Steve and Brittany did such a great job watching Finn! You can tell Finn loved his time there. Finn really enjoyed being able to play in their huge fenced in yard with Anakin. We will definitely rebook in the future.”

“Kathy and her crew took extra special care of our boy Nikko. He will be returning to his favorite spot soon. She has a wonderful outdoor area and furry friends to keep your special ones company.”

“Erica was absolutely the BEST dog sitter I could have ever asked for!!! She was recommended from and friend and did not dissapoint! She stayed in touch with pictures about 2x a day! Siri, my dog, always looked very happy and well taken care of!”
