“After my sister moved away, we were pretty stressed about who would watch our cat when we went out of town. Especially because she has a lot of health problems and medication needs. Hayley was able to administer her meds no problem and sent us detailed updates and photos that helped ease our mind while on vacation. We will definitely be using her again! She was quick to respond, professional, and it’s obvious she has a lot of experience.”

“Brooke had great communication during drop in visits for our kitty! She was also patient with our shy guy and allowed him time to come out and investigate on his own. We knew our kitty was in great hands while we were out of town!”

“Miss Hettie did a terrific job caring for our two kitty cats! Very happy we were able to book her. She went over and above what was expected. So grateful for her outstanding service. We know who we'll call on next time we go on another trip. Thank you, Hettie!”

“Ashley and Michael were absolutely amazing with our dogs. Our living situation isn’t ideal for dog sitting, but they picked up and made it seem like no issue at all. Will definitely be using them again. They took plenty of pictures and allowed our dogs plenty of exercise while we were gone.”

“Lyric was great! We booked last minute and she was able to come meet the dogs and cats the same day we booked. She was flexible and dependable! We will definitely be using her again next time we need a Rover!”

“Kimberly came to our apartment for drop-in checkups on my two cats for two weeks. She did a great job communicating and making sure the cats and apartment were well taken care of. She also showed that she was willing to go the extra mile to make sure they got everything they needed if necessary. We really appreciated her help and would hire her again for future help!”


“Kaylee was great with my 3 dogs. She was on time, communicated well for every visit, and I felt I could trust her with my fur babies. Will definitely book with her again if needed!”

“Makaila did an excellent job taking care of my dog over a long holiday weekend. She was extremely flexible, responsive, and attentive. She even spent extra time during visits with my dog out of her own freewill and kindness so that my dog would fell less lonely over the long weekend. All while sending plenty of updates. I felt comfortable leaving knowing my dog would be well taken care of. Highly recommend!”

“Lexi completed drop in visits and walks for our fur baby, while we were out of town. She was very responsive, on time for all the drop ins, and did great with him! We would use Lexi again, when we’re out of town.”


About: Hi, I’m Ainsley! Dogs have been a massive part of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up, my home was always filled with paws—giving me firsthand experience raising energetic puppies, keeping up with active adult dogs, and providing gentle, attentive care to sweet senior dogs. I’ve spent years pet-sitting for family members, treating their fur babies exactly like my own. Whether your dog needs a high-energy brisk walk, a slow and sniff-filled stroll, or just some extra patience and TLC, I’ve got you covered. I can’t wait to meet your pup and become their new favorite walking buddy! I have a fairly open schedule while school is out for the summer! I’m available most mornings for check-ins and walks, and most evenings for over night care. I’m willing to adapt to any space! I have plenty of experience with all types of animals, and am confident that I can care for yours.
