I ended up needing someone to let my dog out on short notice and Julia was super accommodating. The pictures and check in updates gave me peace of mind. I really appreciate the care and attention she gave my dog.

Danielle did an incredible job looking after our kitties. Our cats took to her immediately and she had incredible attention to detail. Danielle went the extra mile and brought in packages that were delivered while we were away. She is definitely an animal person, and we look forward to having her watch our fur babies in the future!

About: I’ve worked with animals since I was 14, first starting off in grooming and then moving onto boarding and now I am a full time veterinary assistant. I feel confident in caring for all different kinds of pets and I am very flexible to accommodate your pets specific needs! I work full this at a veterinary clinic on the weekdays, so weekends work best for me, but willing to work on weekdays when I’m available I feel confident in taking care of a wide variety of pets and am very skilled at daily care needs including walking, feeding, playing and even giving medications.

We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter than David! From the moment he met our dogs, they bonded with him instantly and were genuinely excited to see him each day while we were away. David’s communication was outstanding—he kept us consistently updated with messages and photos, which gave us great peace of mind. It was clear he genuinely cared for our dogs and made sure they felt loved and comfortable in our absence. He also treated our home with great respect and care, as if it were his own. We highly recommend David to anyone looking for a reliable, kind, and professional sitter. We will definitely be reaching out to him again in the future!

About: Your pets are family — and they deserve to be treated that way. Animals have been part of my life since childhood. I grew up with cats and dogs - breeds ranging from Akitas to MinPins. But dogs have always been my greatest passion. I began pet sitting for friends and family in college, and over time my experience grew into a deeper focus on canine behavior, training, and understanding each dog’s unique personality and needs. I currently share my home with two rescue dogs, Radar and Remi (staffy mix and pit/bully mix), whose journeys inspired me to expand my knowledge through extensive professional training with world-renowned trainers, a behavioral mentorship program, and two years working part-time at a professional dog training facility, specializing in puppies and behavioral cases. I’m comfortable with dogs of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments — including anxious, reactive, or high-energy dogs. My approach combines structure, patience, compassion, and safety so your pet feels calm, secure, and understood. Whether your dog needs active engagement, gentle reassurance, or experienced handling, you can trust they’ll be cared for like one of my own. I’m a full-time Mortgage Loan Officer who works both from home and out in the field, which allows me to maintain a flexible schedule and accommodate your pet’s needs I’m happy to follow whatever routine or care plan works best for you and your pet — whether that includes walks, feeding, playtime, enrichment, training reinforcement, cuddles, or simply providing calm companionship and love. Both of my dogs have been crate trained, and I’m comfortable supporting crate routines if needed. While they don’t need or use muzzles, I’ve muzzled trained them, if there were ever a situation that called for it. My behavioral mentorship was with a fear-free trainer, but I also have experience learning from trainers who incorporate tools, allowing me to adapt to the approach you and your dog are familiar with. My goal is to work within your pet’s established structure so they feel safe, comfortable, and understood.

Hannah is wonderful! My kitties love her. She is a great communicator and goes above and beyond to keep me in the loop about how things are going. On these most recent visits, my kitties had some accidents due to tummy issues and she kept me informed while also cleaning up the messes with no complaints. We will definitely rebook with her next time we go out of town!

Allie is so kind and does great work with our timid girl. Allie is patient and you can tell she is a great caregiver because she thinks of all of the little things (like placing her keys down to say hi because she knew keys might scare a nervous dog).

Emily was great! My dog is recovering from surgery and I needed someone who could visit him without letting him roam outside his kennel too much. She provided gentle company with him and made him feel calm and loved.

"Carissa was PHENOMENA with my cats! Even my most skittish cat warmed up to her quickly, which is rare!! She clearly has a natural way with animals and made sure my pets felt safe and loved while I was away. I came home to calm, happy, and well-cared cats. I will definitely be booking with Carissa again and highly recommend her
