“Annamaria was great! My Dog was happy as can be and I know he received a lot of attention as she provided photos of him walking, eating, playing, etc., etc. I would absolutely book Annamaria again and I am sure we will in the future! Thank you for making my dog’s experience better than expected! We were happy to know he was in good hands.”

“Kenna did a great job with our energetic puppy! She was communicative, kept the house super clean, and was overall a joy to work with. My dog loved playing with her pup! This was our first time leaving our puppy so it was such a relief not having to worry! I love that she stayed overnight- it made things much easier. She walked the dog everyday and I could tell my dog was so happy (and tired) when we got home!”

“Can’t say enough great things about Nicole! She takes such good care of my senior pup. It’s never easy leaving a 16 year old dog, but Nicole puts me at ease with her reliability and frequent communication.”

“Genevieve was absolutely fantastic! I am always worried about leaving Pepper because she doesn’t like new people initially but she seemed to warm up to Genevieve very well. Genevieve was patient, friendly, and accommodating to any needs I had. She sent the cutest pictures and “pupdates” often to keep me in the loop. Since it was Christmas, she also opened gifts with Pepper on that day and sent fun videos. She took great care of our house as well. Cleaned up after herself and went over and beyond doing laundry as well. I would definitely recommend Genevieve to anyone who is looking for a reliable sitter for their fur babies. We will be using her again soon! Thanks for everything!”

“Maciyah was super accommodating and helpful when I had to book her last minute. And Duke seemed to really enjoy his stay. She sent tons of pictures and got him lots of walks. I highly recommend boarding with Maciyah.”


“Will did an amazing job with our puppy Reesey and kitty Lindy! He was great about keeping us updated on how they were doing and sent tons of pics! We left for the weekend and trusted him to stay at our house, would do it again if needed!”

About: I have always been the first to offer to cat or dog sit for my friends. My own cat needs daily oral medication, so I understand the importance of timely medication. I can't wait to meet you and your pets. I am currently attending online school, so I will have a lot of availability to care for your pets! I'm new to the area, and excited to get myself out there. I'm attentive to animal body language, and know some animal first-aid. In case of an emergency, I'm also capable of lifting up to about 80 pounds.
“Theresa and Adrian did a great job watching Laika. They communicated expectations clearly ahead of time and sent updates throughout the stay. We were able to enjoy our trip knowing our dog was well taken care of.”

About: I’ve had pets my whole life and have grown up around a large variety. I’ve pet sat and dog walked for friends and neighbors over the years off and on. I work from home during the week and come a go a bit on weekends. I wouldn’t ever be gone more than 8 hours for any animal. Feel free to ask if you have any questions. I’m very attentive to pets in my home and make sure that they are in safe environments with everything they need. I am very respectful in other people’s homes and make sure the pets are well taken care of. If boarding at my home, I did just get two roommates who live upstairs and one of them has a cat who is friendly with dogs. There is a door to separate the upstairs as well.
“Kayla is a great pet sitter and has house sat for me on multiple occasions. Kayla has been great with my 2 dogs and 2 cats, always sending picture and video updates. Kayla is also SO mindful of our space, making sure to keep it tidy and in order while we are gone.”

“Kristina was wonderful ! Very responsible and so loving towards My pooch Marley ! He loves her from day one ! I’d highly recommend her ! My dog is not an easy personality and he was happy as can be upon my return ! 5 stars”


“Sophia was very flexible with a last minute sitting request for two dogs. She visited the home 3 times per day, walked the dogs 1-2 times per day, fed, and administered medications. The home was kept in the condition it was left in. The dogs were very comfortable and in good spirits after a 3 day sitting. Sophia had good communication and demeanor. She left check in messages and photos with every visit. Would definitely book with Sophia again.”

“Tess is great! My two dogs clearly were loved by the look from all the pictures she sent me. The house is as clean as I left it and she communicated the whole time I was gone. I will definitely be booking with her again.”

“Allie made Skeeter's first time being watched while I was on vacation stress-free. Updates were perfect and the pictures were adorable. Skeeter is a rescue dog and part Chi so can be temperamental with new people, but he was already relaxed on the couch when I left. Allie followed Skeeter's special instructions and I knew he was in good hands. I think Skeeter found his person!”

“Amy was great with our kitty Tommy. He took to her right away so felt at ease with her staying at our place. She sent me pics often and he was happy. Will definitely use her again for more upcoming trips.”

“Valerie took wonderful care of our three dogs. She let me know when she gave Domino his heart medication which put my mind at ease. She also took pictures of them once or twice a day and sent them to me. She also took care of my daughter‘s tortoise which decided to be an escape artist, and she had to hunt him down in the neighbors yard. On returning from our vacation, she left the house extremely clean, which was extremely appreciated.”

Literally the sweetest person to have taken care of your fur babies. She is compassionate and caring. During my trip, she sent me multiple pictures of my little stinky babies. If you need someone you can trust and know will provide unconditional love. Already planning rebooking! 💓

Our dog likes absolutely no one, but she warmed up to Diane during the course of our trip, and they became pals! Diane is is patient and caring with nervous pups, and really helped make sure Pickles trusted her. She and her kitty brother Ozzie seemed to really enjoy their time with her, and I love that we finally have a reliable sitter to care for them when needed. Frequent updates helped us not miss our babies so much (even though we still did!). Will use her again with no hesitate!

Emily was great with my 2 dogs while I was away for business travel. She stayed at my house to provide care and was very good about communicating updates in the form of photos, videos, and texting! I can tell she feels comfortable and confident working with dogs of various sizes and personalities! Emily seemed to truly care about and enjoy spending time with my fur babies. They got lots of walks, playtime and cuddles! Emily was respectful of my home and followed all care instructions that I provided. She did have several personal obligations where she needed to leave for a short bit, but let me know when she needed to be gone. I felt good about knowing that Emily was there while I could not be home. I would recommend her services to other pet parents!

Will took excellent care of my cat and home. He is a great communicator and I could tell he spent extra time playing with my cat as he was super chill. Will’s consideration for the details of my pet and home was noteworthy. His updates were exactly what I needed to relax away from home and my routine driven kitty 🐈⬛

Omg Emily was so great!!! Her communication was literally 10/10 and she sent me so many pictures and videos and updates of my dogs while she house+dog sat for me for 3 days. She even left my house cleaner than how she found it! As someone who is brand new to the area, I was so nervous to leave my dogs and house to someone new but Emily is literally exactly who you want. She asked so many good and thorough questions before and during her stay. I just can't say enough good things about her. I'll 100% be requesting her to take care of my babies again bc I already know I'll have total peace of mind having her take care of them :)

Keryandra was an amazing house and pet sitter. She was very communicative and sent lots of pictures. We have a high energy/neurotic pomsky and I felt like she understood her and did her best to meet her high demands When there were fires and Canada making air quality bad she took the dogs to Petsmart and Lowe’s for safe exercise! When our dog was sick she cared for her and cleaned everything up. Definitely recommend!
Rhiannon was amazing! She gave detailed updates, managed a complicated medication schedule with ease, and went above and beyond to make my nervous pup feel comfortable while I was gone. I came back to a clean home and happy pets. I would recommend Rhiannon's services and look forward to booking with her again.
We couldn’t have asked for a better house and dog sitter! Mark stayed in our home while we were away, and he took incredible care of our dog, Willie Nelson. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing Willie was comfortable in his own home with someone so kind, responsible, and attentive. Mark went above and beyond while we were gone. He kept us updated, treated our home with care and respect, and most importantly, gave Willie so much love and attention. We came home to a happy, relaxed dog, and our house was just as we left it. Mark is also an incredibly talented local artist, and he’s simply a wonderful human being. If you’re looking for someone you can completely trust with your pets and your home, I can’t recommend him enough. We’ll absolutely be booking him again!

We went to asia for two weeks and Gary did an amazing job taking care of our home and dogs. We have a very active pup and he went out of his way to ensure he got his proper exercise. Gary also left our home in immaculate condition probably cleaner than we left it!! Thank you again so much and we would absolutely book you in the future!!
