About: I’ve taken care of my aunt’s dog since I was little and then briefly lived with one until he passed. I was in charge of walking and feeding them and both dogs absolutely adored me. Now as I’ve grown up, my favorite animals are still dogs but I unfortunately don’t have any and I have the cutest little kitties. Hoping to get my serotonin boost from hanging out with your pups instead! I’m currently studying so I’m available for onboarding any day you need me to! I’m free to watch over them and make sure their needs are met since I am home all day typically. My yard isn’t fenced fully but it is mostly and your fur baby will have all the space to run around. I will be home all day to keep them company and make sure they’re happy.

“The most marvelous dog and cat sitter ever!!!!!! Stephanie made me not worry at all on our vacation!!! I would use her anytime I need someone! Top notch!”


“Katie is great with our dogs! She is very kind and sweet. She is very quick to respond and send us picture and video updates. She worked great with our two crazy dogs who had to be kept separated due to behavior issues and she adapted to the situation very well. She has now watched our dogs twice & we will certainly ask her in the future! Highly recommend Katie!”


“Emma is the best and a true angel! We have three standard poodles who are our 4 legged kids and we have never left them in someone’s care outside of family. Poodles are very family oriented and can be wary of strangers. After meeting Emma, we were amazed at how quickly the girls took to Emma as if they had known her for a lifetime. She came to our home and provided outstanding care. Emma provided us periodic updates during the day and even sent pictures showing us how well things were going. Emma is a true blessing to our family and I know we will reach out to her again! 💕🐾”


“Bree was awesome and the cats appeared to like her also. She sent pictures and even took out the trash. We will be using her services again. It is so relaxing to be away and know that your pets are happy and well taken care of. I can't say enough about Bree.”

I know how stressful it can be to leave your pets behind, so I’m grateful for the opportunity to offer them a quiet, kid-free, pet-free, low-stress environment to settle into while you’re away. I’m extremely reliable, caring, and patient. Whether your pet needs medication, a consistent routine, or extra time to warm up to someone, I’m happy to adjust to whatever works best for them (and for you). Whether I’m with them for a drop-in or overnight stay, I’ll make sure your pets feel safe, loved, and well cared for.

When providing services like house visits or house sitting, I follow the same routine as in my own home and also follow any specific instructions or guidelines provided by the pet's owner.

As mentioned, I have a fenced yard and able to put them on a playpen for their safety and comfort if necessary.
