“This is my first time using Rover and we had a wonderful experience with Michelle. From the pictures we received our dog Levi looked like he was on vacation too. He loved swimming in the doggie pool and his hikes. It makes you time away so much more enjoyable when you know your dog is being so well cared for”


“Nola loves her stays with Katie and Preston and their furry family. I trust them to give her all the attention she needs and to provide great care. It’s great to have a trustworthy home away from home for her and she will be returning the next time I go out of town.”


“My dog Suzie had never been away from me since I found her 4 years ago, so I was concerned how she would do with a sitter. Suzie and I did a "meet and greet" with Robin and her dog Amos. After we visited with them I knew I could depend on Robin to keep any separation anxiety at bay. Robin sent pictures and updates every day. She has a great fenced back yard and doesn't mind fur babies on her furniture! I will definitely be using Robin's services for Suzie in the future. Thank you Robin, for a great experience for both Suzie and me.”


“Elijah was the best! Quick communicator. And I felt very at ease leaving my fur baby with him. I will certainly use him again. This, by far, has been my best pet sitting experience in years! THANK YOU SO MUCH, Elijah!”


“Jacqueline and Sammy took great care of our two dogs while we were on vacation. We received daily updates and many pictures, and our girls were well loved and taken care of while we were away! I would highly recommend them as dog sitters!”



“Alyssa is a seasoned dog sitter, and has the ideal set up for a great doggie holiday - Big fenced in yard, doggy beds/toys galore, and a great pack of pups that were playful and easy to get along with. She was very accommodating and flexible for a last-minute booking. Will definitely use again!”


“Elizabeth was a pleasure to work with, communicative, punctual and I could tell she really enjoyed spending time with my dog. I would recommend her to anyone and I will be reaching out again!”


“Fantastic stay for my dog! Miranda was very communicative while I was away and sent lots of pics & updates. My dog returned home a happy and tired camper. Would absolutely send her here again.”


“Michelle was a fantastic dog sitter! She was kind enough to accept Mr. Pibb at the last minute when we were in a pinch, and she and her daughter went above and beyond to make sure he felt comfortable and at home! She sent several videos and photos every day with detailed messages about how the day went, and what all they did together. Mr. Pibb got lots of snuggles and play time while he was there. I could tell he was really enjoying being there in the videos which helped me not have to worry about him at all! He was in very good hands with both Michelle and her daughter. Thank you Michelle! We will definitely book with you again in the future!”


“I cannot begin to say enough about the care which Lacie provided for our Emma. She is a 16 year-old Havanese and has issues such as being blind and deaf. She also has some severe arthritis. Lacie took excellent care of her needs, took her outside multitudes daily to enjoy the sun and provided us with daily photos of how well she got along.Lacie provided excellent care and Emma and seem to be so happy. I know it was a lot of extra work because of her special needs, but Lacey was fantastic. I highly recommend Lacie!!!”


“Solin could not have been placed better than Jennie and Craig. A warm, welcoming, and wonderful environment for our girl. Excellent in every facet of care and communication to keep us informed about our pup during her stay. Jennie and Craig are our first choice for future needs.”


“Kharen looked after our sweet Dani while we took a night out of town. Dani LOVED Kharen and had a great time! She updated us with pictures while we were away too! We will definitely be contacting Kharen again next time we need a sitter!”


“Cindy was excellent with my older Miniature Schnauzer. She has a bit of separation anxiety and Cindy seems to have put her at ease. Wonderful to be able to go to a concert and have someone care for your pup as you would.”


“Honey had a great time with Deborah. She was well taken care of and Deborah sent pictures every day. If you need a caregiver for your pet, you can trust Deborah.”


About: My standard rates apply for most bookings, including multi-pet households. However, for longer stays (typically 7+ days) with 4 or more animals, I’m open to discussing custom pricing. I want to make sure you’re covered while keeping things fair for both of us—feel free to message me and we can talk details if it’s an extended visit! I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for over 15 years, starting in a multi-pet household and continuing as a trusted sitter for friends, family, and neighbors. I’m comfortable with pets of all sizes and temperaments, and I have experience administering medications—both oral and topical. Whether it’s daily walks, playtime, mealtime, or snuggles, I adapt to each pet’s unique needs and routines. I treat every animal like my own and strive to make them feel safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away I’m currently in between jobs, so I have open availability through early August—including weekdays, weekends, and even short-notice bookings. Once my new job starts, I’ll still be available most weekday evenings and weekends unless I’m out of town. I do this because I genuinely love animals—pet sitting doesn’t feel like work to me. It’s something I truly enjoy, and it’s always rewarding to spend time with animals, care for them, and earn their trust. I’m most comfortable house sitting in your pet’s familiar environment—it’s usually less stressful for them, and I love making sure they stay relaxed and happy while you’re away. I’m great with cats and dogs alike, and I have lots of experience managing routines, giving meds, and keeping things tidy. I do have one friendly dog at home, and while I can host in emergencies, I typically prefer to care for your pets in their own space so they feel safe and settled. Your pet’s comfort and your peace of mind are always my priority.

Elizabeth W.
“Elizabeth watched my small dog Ellie while I was out of town, and I couldn’t have asked for a better caregiver. She’s incredibly professional, trustworthy, and clearly loves animals. She sent regular updates and photos, which gave me peace of mind and joy while I was away. Ellie can be a bit shy but she warmed up to Elizabeth right away which means a lot to me! I came home to a happy, well cared for pet. I wouldn’t hesitate to leave Ellie with her again. I have no doubt that anyone else's experience with Elizabeth would be the same, no matter the animal type.”
