“Christy was great with our pitbull! She can be a handful and doesn’t like other dogs but Christy was so flexible and it was so good to know that she was well taken care of while we were out of town. We would definitely choose her again!”
“We loved Tonja and her family. Leaving our dog, Moe with them was so easy and I had absolutely no worries the whole time gone on vacation. Moe became part of their family from sun bathing and swimming to sleeping! Pictures and communication from Tonja was amazing. Moe Loved the family and so do we. Thank you so much for taking such good care of Moe. We will definitely be back!!!”

“Not going to lie, we were nervous leaving our pup with a stranger, but we felt at ease right away. Mark has such a calm demeanor and knows what he is doing. There is another pup he cares for and they play well together, which is great for socializing. If I check in, he responds very quickly and sends us a picture or two. He knows about nervous parents.☺️”
“Katie and her family have been a true blessing for us and our pup, Stormy. The way they shower her with affection and take care of her needs is truly remarkable, making us feel grateful and relieved that she's in good hands. It's no wonder that we affectionately refer to them as Stormy's second family, as she has grown to love them as her own. Without hesitation, we highly recommend Katie to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving dog sitter.”

About: Every pet is unique. I tailor my care plans to meet your pet's individual personality and needs, whether that means high-energy playtime or patience with a shy pet, always using a gentle, force-free approach. I offer 24/7 Furbo live camera access. My goal is to provide exceptional, worry-free care, treating your pet like family while ensuring their safety and happiness in your absence. As a full-time stay-at-home mom, I am home the majority of the day, allowing me to provide a high level of attention and supervision for your pet. Unlike sitters with traditional 9-to-5 jobs, my flexible schedule means more playtime, more potty breaks, and consistent companionship for your furry family member. Pet-proofed my home securing trash bins, cover sharp corners, keep toilet lids down, and removing or locking away any toxic or dangerous items. I use baby gates and childproof locks to block off certain areas. I set up a comfortable, low-traffic area with an orthopedic bed and futon couch or if your pet needs to be kenneled or crated at night that can be offered as well. I ensure to use toys and chews that are appropriate for the pet's size and species. I do not have a fenced in yard but I will make sure your pet is using their collar/harness and leash when outside at all times.
