About: Hi there, I’m Sydney! Growing up I’ve always loved animals, both young and elderly. I would love to meet your furry friend and give them the attention they need and deserve while you’re away! I am free most afternoons and with notice I can typically be free on the weekend. I am a college student with a decently flexible schedule to fit you and your pets needs! In your home, your pet will have consistent access to fresh drinking water! Additionally, any needs or routines you and your furry friend have will be followed as best as I can, not to mention plenty of photos to come :)
“Melissa took amazing care of our dogs for the long weekend. She sent pictures and when we returned the dogs were happy and the house was tidy so we couldn’t have been happier!”


“Miguel is absolutely fantastic! He treated our dog like one of his own, sending regular updates and photos throughout our trip, which gave us complete peace of mind. Came home to a happy pup, and we couldn't be more pleased with the care He provided. We will definitely be using Miguel's services again!”

“Lindsay was an excellent dog sitter for our two pups. She was very responsive when asked any questions and kept us updated over the course of her stay. I would highly recommend booking her services.”
“Gracie was absolutely amazing with our two pups! We were given updates and pictures all throughout the day and never had to worry about a thing when we were out of town. We have used this service a lot and haven’t had anyone that can hold a candle to how great Gracie was! Will definitely be calling her again in the future!”

“Nicole was AMAZING! She not only accommodated a very last minute request due to a family emergency with our originally booked Rover but she was hands down the best one we have had yet! She is kind, communicative, and took such GREAT care of our home and our boy! Normally he is stressed when we get home from a trip but this time I think he was disappointed when we got home and spoiled all his fun LOL! We will definitely use Nicole again.”

“Kristina is THE BEST! She took GREAT care of our 2 very pampered chihuahuas and elderly cat, so much so, I think they were all a little disappointed when we got home. She definitely treated them like her own and we are so appreciative of that. We were able to enjoy our family vacation with multiple updates and pictures daily. She really is the sweetest person and we will definitely be having her back!”

“Olivia took great care of Percy while we were away and sent really lovely updates with pictures throughout the stay which we really appreciated! We knew our home and Percy were in good hands with Olivia.”

“Bonnie is by far the best sitter we have ever had! She was so great with our boys and took extremely good care of them while we were away. She took the time to make sure they were loved and pampered, brushed them for us and even gave them adorable bandanas. She left our home cleaner then we left it and also took care of plants/brought packages inside. I would highly recommend her!! Thank you Bonnie!”

“Anna was great! Our pets were well taken care of and she was respectful of our home. She sent us photos as requested too. Will definitely book with her again.”

“Zoe stayed with my Dachshund for two days while I was on a work trip. She was excellent with Samson and completely attentive to our needs. She sent pictures and practiced excellent communication. It was truly a piece of mind to have her help. Her and samson became great friends and we look forward to using her services again:) Thanks Again, Zoe!”

“Heather was great for our overnight trip. She sent plenty of picture and updates on the animals through her entire stay. We had never left the animals with someone they didn't know for an overnight trip so we were a bit nervous on how things would go. It went so well that we will be using her again for a trip in the near future.”

“Lauren is exceptionally response and kind. We have a high anxiety dog and he took so well to her. We will definitely look forward to hiring Lauren in the future. She is very conscientious and responsible. Great experience. Thanks Lauren!”

“Cynthia was absolutely fantastic! She took the time to get to know our dogs in advance and took exquisite care of them during her stay with them. We received updates regularly and tons of pictures! ? Our boys loved the amount of outside activity she allowed them and tons of affectionate attention. We know they were in great hands during our time away and will absolutely rebook with Cynthia in the future!”

About: When I am asked to pet sit I always am sure to maintain the pet's lifestyle that they have while you are home. It is a guarantee they will get lots of play time and love! I have watched pets for 10 years and I always have heard great things about my pet care. I love taking pets for walks and playing with their favorite toy! When I am pet sitting I am with your pet as much as you need me to be. I have trained puppies to sit, hive five, lay down, leash manners, tricks and fetch. I also have administered medicine by mouth to different sized dogs. I would love to get to know you and your fur baby! :) I love going on walks with my dog so having that extra walking time outdoors is great. I work full time but am able to make time for your pet. When you trust me to watch your pet, I am always going to treat them as if they are my own! Following all directions you give me is top priority. I always leave knowing your pet is happy because that’s what I would want for my pets!

Juliet was an amazing sitter! If ever I need a sitter again I will definitely be in touch. She spent time walking and playing fetch with Guppy Goose and kept her company while we were away. Trust was built pretty quickly, partly due to her great communication! Thanks Juliet!

This was our second time having Lisa check in our guinea pig, Storm, while we were on vacation. Storm was comfortable with her right away, and she shared the cutest photos. Lisa took extra time and care around the house. Would gladly recommend Lisa to anyone looking for trustworthy and reliable pretty care. 😊

Absolutely amazing experience! Annie went above and beyond caring for my dog and my home. I received frequent updates and tons of adorable pictures, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. My dog looked happy and well cared for in every photo. When I returned home, the house was spotless—just as I left it. I truly appreciate the level of care, communication, and attention to detail. I will definitely be booking again and highly recommend to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving sitter!”

Katherine was absolutely wonderful with our dogs, Bentley and Ellie! From the moment she arrived, she was caring, attentive, and made us feel completely at ease leaving them in her care. She followed all instructions perfectly, including giving medications, and sent us thoughtful updates and pictures while we were away. The dogs were happy, relaxed, and clearly well-loved while with her. We’re so grateful for the peace of mind she gave us and will definitely be booking with her again. Highly recommend her!
