“This was the first time we used Angela for 2 overnights for our doggie and cat. I had selected her based on her stellar reviews and validated references. She not only met but exceeded our expectations on all fronts. Very communicative -providing detailed descriptions of their adventures with pictures and texts. Extremely responsive. Took loving care of our pets and we didn’t need to worry at all. She took our doggie on trips to 2 different parks and around the hood. She followed our suggestions and even went above and beyond our expectations! Angela is thoughtful, caring, mature, responsible and truly loves animals. Both pets were well taken care of and we won’t hesitate to book with Angela again as I now can’t imagine having anyone else care for our furry family members!”
“Amberleigh was very attentive to my cats and provided me with frequent updates throughout the day, which gave me peace of mind. She also voluntarily tidied up around my apartment including cleaning my hardwood floors and wiping surfaces. I highly recommend her!”
“Howie had a great time with Hannah! She was so attentive to him, texted me photos, kept me updated. She alerted me to something she had noticed, and I knew he was in really good hands! Thanks Hannah!!”
“Maia was amazing from start to finish! She accommodated a last-minute booking and was an absolute dream dog sitter! She took great care of both our giant pup and our home. We were nervous after 5 years of not using a sitter, but I can’t say enough good things about how comfortable she made us feel!”
“Tara was great with our dog Cooper who is used to just family members taking care of him. She provided updates and pictures. We were very happy with the care and attention she provided while we were away.”
“Kai and Devon were great pet sitters for us during the week that we were away on vacation! They communicated well with us and provided updates on how our pets were doing. They kept our house clean and even took the time to wash sheets, towels, and blankets before they left. Overall they did a great job for us and we would definitely book them again!”
About: I've had dogs since i was a child. Your pets are your family members and deserve to be cared for by someone who will pay attention to them, play with them and follow your instructions via food and snacks. Dogs make my heart happy. I'm currently working from home so I have the time for long walks, outside play sessions and light grooming. I am available at any time with at least a days notice. I give your pets all of my attention and time in your home along with cuddles. Food preparation, snacks, hydration, I will follow your instructions to the letter. Your pets deserve to be safe and taken care of. If you have a cat that likes crocheted toys, I'm your person!
“Carol was awesome! It was the first time I was leaving my puppy, and I felt totally at ease knowing Carol was loving her the way I would. Lots of photos and great communication. My dog was happy, and I could enjoy vacation knowing my pup was in great care. I will definitely book with her again!”

We know the next time we go away our pups will be in loving hands!”

Nate is a caring and kind person who communicates well and is always looking out for our dogs best interest. He not only took care of our pups but when my grandma was walking to her car he helped her and was so kind to her. Great person great pet sitter 10/10!
Jessica exceeded every expectation! I was out of the country for 10 days. Jessica house sat and took care of my two 11-year-old cats. My boy needs meds every morning and evening. She made great effort to make sure he got the meds, especially the first couple of days when he was getting used to her. She actually brought gates from her home and moved furniture so that she could give my boy his meds. She texted me every day with updates and pictures. I recommend her without hesitation. She's great!
My pups enjoyed another successful stay within my home, with Destiny at the helm of their adventures in (canine) babysitting. Destiny came for a pre visit since it’s been awhile, and was every bit as friendly and communicative about needs, concerns, preferences, as I remembered. Loved the daily walks and pics that she sent so I felt comfortable that Chico and Olive were in good hands.
Our experience with Robyn was all I could ever hope for in a pet sitter and more! She is communicative, enthusiastic, kind, caring, and responsible. We got so many beautiful photos of our dog, Teddy, looking so happy and well cared for while we were away, along with very frequent updates on what they were doing and what was planned for later in the day. Robyn had so many fun activities planned for Teddy, I don't think he even realized we were gone, he was so busy and having such a great time! I felt at ease from the moment I met Robyn, and I did not worry once while Teddy was in her care. There is literally not one thing she could have done better. She went above and beyond to make our Teddy feel loved and spoiled. We are so grateful to have found Robyn and plan to book many future services with her in the future!
