About: Erik and I love animals in general but we absolutely love our Dogs and cats! We consistently care for my family Dog named Mookie! Who spends her full time with my Dads family but we care for her as well. We love taking her on adventurous walks,frequent potty breaks whilst sticking to her feeding schedule, and supplement / medication routines. She also loves to join us for car rides as well! Weekly scheduling is possible! We’d love to have consistent clients and build dependable wholesome connections. As our schedule opens up, we will update our availability as well! Whether in our own space or in a clients home we ensure that the pets are getting their needs met by sticking to their routines, offering them comfort through snuggles and play! Or giving them space if they are shy or like to be in their own areas but we continue to keep and eye on them. As far as walks, we ensure that they stay safe on the roads, pay attention to how they are around other animals and also allowing them to take their time.

“This was our first time using a dog sitter for our anxious human-wannabe 13 yo Maltese yorkie (she usually stays with family). We were nervous leaving our sweet girl with a stranger, but Charlii immediately made us feel at ease during our meet and greet. She took great care of our dog, giving her love, care, and attention as if she were her own. Her daily updates are thorough, and included things like medication success, meal amounts, playtime activities, and lots of pictures. We returned after a week away to a happy, healthy dog and a clean home. She’s incredible and we wouldn’t hesitate to book again.”

“Rich is absolutely outstanding. This was the second time he stayed with Remi while we were away for nine days, and I didn’t worry once. Remi is a young, sensitive dog with anxiety and a very specific routine, and Rich handled everything with incredible patience, skill, and genuine care. He did Remi’s mat training, gave all of his medications, took him on walks, managed his anxious moments with calm confidence, and followed all of the routines we’ve worked so hard to establish. It was clear that he cared about helping Remi feel safe and successful, not just getting through the day. Rich also sent thoughtful updates and photos throughout our trip, gave us a detailed report when we returned, and left our house spotless. Finding someone you trust with a dog like Remi is priceless, and Rich has earned that trust completely. I would recommend him without hesitation to anyone, especially if you have a dog with anxiety or behavioral needs. We feel incredibly lucky to have found him.”

“Sophia is an incredible pet sitter, run don’t walk to book her! Sophia came over for a meet and greet a few weeks before my travel dates to get familiar with my dog, cat, and home. While I was away, I received numerous detailed updates with photos and descriptions of their day together. Sophia was also an MVP while I figured out a nightmare travel day home - multiple cancelled flights and delays - she quickly responded to texts and ensured my girls would be taken care of beyond our initial booked dates. Once I finally arrived home, my house was spotless - bed sheets and towels washed, dishwasher loaded, carpets vacuumed, trash taken out. But the most telling was how calm and comfortable my dog and cat were 🥰 Excited to see me, but clearly had a very enjoyable, loving week hanging with their new BFF. Thank you Sophia! I will 100% be booking again soon!”

“I first met Kelly for a preliminary 'meet & greet' and I immediately sensed her comfort with our young, certified therapy Aussie dog 'Sydney'. On the day of the sitting, Kelly arrived promptly and Sydney (again) greeted her warmly. During the visit Kelly texted us some cute photos of Sydney and Kelly at-play. I highly recommend Kelly and as the need arises we will definitely request her services without hesitation.”

About: I believe dogs and cats have a way of communicating, and I’ve learned to understand them deeply, creating a truly rewarding connection. I can read their subtle cues and know exactly what they need. I’m partially retired, and because I love dogs, caring for them fits perfectly into my daily routine. This opportunity allows me to spend quality time with your four-legged family member while helping you with their care on a temporary basis. I have owned my home for the last 20 years and have been an active member of my HOA board, even leading the security committee for several years—demonstrating my commitment to a safe, secure environment. Additionally, I rescued and cared for a 10-pound Pomeranian in my condo for six wonderful years, ensuring his well-being daily. These experiences reflect my dedication to responsible care and vigilance—qualities I bring to any dog walking service.

About: I have cared for multi-pet households. I have experience feeding, brushing, changing litter, and administering medication. I love animals of all sorts. I am also good with them. I am good at reading their body language, and a lot of them gravitate towards me for whatever reason. They tend to be comfortable with my presence. I am between jobs at the moment, so that means I am somewhat more flexible to work around your schedule. I am a little bit busy with stuff in my personal life, and obviously I have boundaries about when I can and can't be at your home and how much work I want to take on, but the lack of structure in my life right now means we have more options for how I can show up for your pets. I am not in school either at the moment. I am not planning to have this be my only source of income, but for now I am flexible. I can't have pets come to my apartment; it is too small and I don't live on the bottom floor so it would be too much of a hassle to take them outside. I can only come to your home. I am very respectful of boundaries and property when I enter someone else's home. I will pay close attention to your instructions about how to care for your pets and any important other details I need to know. I am responsible and detail oriented, so you can trust me in your home and with your animals. I care that my clients feel secure with me being there while they are away.

When a health issue arose during my absence, she handled it exceptionally well by keeping me informed, sending photos, and communicating promptly. Fortunately, everything worked out fine. When I returned, Gemma was happy, relaxed, and clearly well cared for. Ava also took excellent care of my home and followed all of the condo rules. I couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would absolutely hire her again. I highly recommend her!”

About: Hi! My name is Stephanie and I have been pet sitting for over 15 years. My love of animals has led me to initially start looking after family and friend's critters to wanting to help others as a way to care for their pets when they're busy or unable to. I have cared for both cats, dogs, even a pig, ranging from young to old. Currently, I provide daily check-ins to see how pets are doing. I also provide walks and play time so they get some engagement and aren't lonely while their owners are away on business or vacation or just busy with work. If you are looking for someone to help you with a walk, a check-in, or play time, please don't hesitate to contact me! I'm currently funemployed so my schedule is extremely flexible. For drop-ins, I drop in once in the morning at 8:30am and/or again in the evening at 6:30pm. For walks, they would be during middle of the day at around 1pm. Prior to an service, I try to communicate with pet owners about anything I should know. I prefer to over communicate to make sure everyone is on the same page and that I have everything I need to make every visit, stay, or walk successful. When visiting a client's home, I allow pets to come up to me first so they can get acquainted with me. I don't force interaction since that can break down trust. If any of the pets have soiled or damaged anything on the property, I'd document it, send it to the client, then clean up any mess. Whether I'm staying at someone's house or doing drop-ins, I give each pet lots of love and attention in the form of pets, belly rubs, and playing games with them. If they are skittish, I tend to let them approach me when they feel comfortable.

Lola watched our cat Cookie Dough for 10 days while we were traveling internationally. She was very communicative and responsible, even when he played escape artist for a few hours, she dropped everything to get him safely back in the house. She left our home spotless for our return. It's clear she bonded with our sweet boy and we would be happy to work with her again. Thank you!

She immediately understood how to connect with our trauma rescue girl who hates when we’re away and how to manage her severe reactiveness with other dogs. We always felt like she was in great hands.

Hollie was great with our 7yr old pittie. She stayed in our home for over a week while we were away. She sent us daily pictures and also messaged if there were any concerns or updates. I appreciated that she made sure to follow her routine and any special instructions. We had a lot of peace of mind knowing that not only was our fur baby well taken care of but also loved. I highly recommend her and would be happy to have her take care of Laika again in the future.

I'm so glad I booked with Carmen. She's got a gentle spirit and an empathic approach that reassured me that Juniper would be in wonderful hands. Juni obviously missed her when she left because she returned to the bed Carmen had slept in and stayed there all day. She sent me photos of Juniper while I was away and I could see she was happy with Carmen. Would rebook and recommend. And I think for extra sensitive animals Carmen would be a perfect choice as she takes care to make them feel respected and safe and let them come out of their shell.

She sent regular updates, including pictures showing our pets happy, relaxed, and incredibly well cared for. Sara is a thoughtful, communicative, responsive, snd caring sitter who clearly love animals -- and they love her back! We will definitely be booking her again :)

We had another great experience with Hong. She took care of our 2 dogs over the weekend and they are so happy to see her again. We are confident that our dogs are in good hands when we leave them with her. She gives them individualized attention and they were both nicely brushed when we got home. She also does a super job of communicating and so we get lots of good pictures and updates while we are away. And our house is well cared for. Hong is terrific.

Rita was so great with my dog Billy! I could tell from the moment she came over that she has a natural way with animals and such a patient, calming disposition, which was especially great for Billy, who can be a little particular. She jumped right in, took him on a walk, and really made it a priority to help him feel comfortable with her. On top of that, she was incredibly communicative, flexible, and just an all-around wonderful house sitter. I felt so good knowing Billy was in her care and would absolutely work with Rita again!
