“Carol Ann was an exceptional caregiver for our dog, Oreo. She was always checking in with us every day and sending us videos and/or pictures of Oreo. She also went above and beyond taking care of our home during a storm that came through ensuring our patio/porches were secured. We came back very late due to flight delays and she stayed late just to ensure Oreo was cared for until we got home. We would highly recommend Carol Ann to care and sit for your pet.”

“Our dogs loved staying with Victoria! She went above and beyond to make them comfortable during their stay. Would highly recommend leaving your pets in her care!!”
About: I have taken care of animals my whole entire life. I have been pet sitting for years. All of my friends, family and patients have relied on me to take care of their Pets for short and long periods. I am home during the day and especially at night -so it is Very easy for me to include them in my daily schedule. I am available most weekends and holidays. I have a front and backyard -the back has a linai and a pool but it is enclosed. I have access to multiple fields nearby to my house. I allow dogs to swim in the pool with the owner's permission. My house flooring has no carpet so messes are easy to clean up. Requirement: For the safety of our future dogs we will be sitting,we require proof of up to date vaccinations and flea/tick treatment. A copy or picture of your pets most recent veterinarian visit summary will be fine.
“Donna did a wonderful looking after my 2 labradors. She didn't hesitate to reach out if she had a question and sent me photos of the dogs every day. Professional, caring, on-time. I'd recommend her to anyone and definitely use her again.”


“Allyson was amazing with our dog Oreo. We were so pleased with her care. She shared photos of Oreo and kept in contact with us. We definitely recommend Allyson and will use her in the future.”

“Sabrina was amazing with our high energy GSP. She sent lots of pictures and made us feel super comfortable leaving our sweet girl for the first time. She followed our requested routine and cared for our pup just as we would have. We will definitely be using her again!”

“Anthony was FANTASTIC! First of all, he was available on short notice. Then he had our Yorkie basically eating out of the palm of his hand and she never does that with anyone but us! He sent pictures to me while he was there, which was very reassuring. I can’t say enough good about him! Thank you, Anthony!”

“Shay is the absolute best! She stayed at our house for a week taking care of our four pets. She clearly loves animals, and it shows in how comfortable they were with her from the start. Shay sent photos and updates every day, was extremely responsive, took great care of our home, and even left Christmas presents for our two dogs. We weren’t stressed at all while we were away knowing she was staying at our place. We will definitely reach out again to invite her back!!”

“Misty is a lifesaver, so happy we connected. She stayed at the house with my Malinois for 4 days and when I got home, my dog was happy and healthy, and the house looked like Misty wasn’t there (she cleaned, did laundry, and left no trace). The peace of mind is priceless and I recommend Misty.”

“Mary was beyond wonderful!! She did an extra meet n greet so the dogs could get be comfortable with her and her husband. They both took such great care of my babies, with plenty of cuddles and pets. She gave me updates every day, with photos and videos. She left the house completely spotless and smelling wonderful. She is definitely our new go to petsitter, and it’s such a relief to have someone we trust that we can contact. I can’t recommend her enough!”

“I can't recommend Matt enough! I had a last minute need to go out of town and met with Matt, literally days, before I had to leave. I was immediate comfortable with him. I have three pets, a senior chi, a male hating cat (not viscous, just hides) and a 4 month old puppy. He took great care of the senior, kept my puppy happy and occupied and even got the cat to like him and purr. I got pictures every day and the house was left immaculate. I highly recommend him and will definitely use him again!!!”

“Both of my mini Australian Shepherd's adored Colin! He was very attentive and played with them a lot! They both slept like babies after he was here for the night! We will definitely use his services again ! Our dogs went to the front door to watch him, leave and looked sad! He was well loved and very respectful at our home!”

About: I absolutely adore animals. I love dogs and cats equally, I also have experience owning/caring for rodents and fish. I worked at a vet for a while so I have experience with animal care along with medicine distribution. I’m open to any hours of the day!l I’m very flexible when it comes to same day visits. Just contact me and I’ll work you right into my schedule! I always approach an animal with caution and care, I allow the animal to sniff my hand first and let them approach me. I am careful when reading their body language and I am adamant about respecting an animal’s boundaries.
“Teri took great and loving care of my dog for 12 days. She went on long walks and took him to a variety of dog parks every day which he loved. Teri is a great communicator and sent pictures every day. She took great care of my home as a house sitter as well. I have booked her again for dog & house sitting in the future as I was very happy with her dedication and care for my dog and home.”

“Hailey was excellent with our pets! She was very communicative and made sure they were all happy and healthy when we got home. We are in the middle of a move so it was a chaotic week and she took it all in stride. Excellent work.”

Leaving your furry family members for an extended period of time is never easy. Hailey helped to make the situation as good as it could have been. She was conscientious of our needs and very respectful of our home. We loved receiving updates and pictures during her stay and she was always quick to respond whenever we would reach out. We found Hailey to be diligent, trustworthy and prompt. We have already scheduled her next stay.

Tammy was excellent with our two very active yellow labs. They were very happy and well Cared for. In addition, Tammy took excellent care of our home—washed bedding and everything which was very much appreciated! We will happily use Tammy for pet sitting again!
I would highly recommend Parisa as a dog sitter . She took excellent care of Odie . In addition her communication to us was excellent .

Parisa is a kind , caring and patient dog sitter and Odie loved her .
