2. Sara T.

“Sara did a great job making my two cats and a dog feel safe and loved in our absence. She did everything we asked of her and more. Thank you, Sara, for easing our worries about leaving our animals!”


3. Cheyenne W.

“Cheyenne has dog sat for us a few times and each time she was timely and a good communicator. We’d definitely recommend and continue to book her!”


4. Lisa H.

“Lisa was super great with our pups, Penny and Sedona. They both warmed up to her immediately and Lisa made sure they were comfortable and loved while we were away. We got frequent updates and pictures which really eased our minds. Lisa also gave us peace of mind, being at the house and keeping us updated on things. She also took care of our chickens and went out of her way to get some extra treats when we ran out. We couldn't have asked for a better dog sitter/housesitter to take care of our babies and our home. We will definitely be booking with Lisa again!”


5. Kathryn C.

“It was our first time getting a sitter to stay in our home and care for our 3 dogs for 2 days and Kathryn did not dissapoint. She was very attentive, sweet, patient, and understood all the directions on what to do for our 3 fur babies since they all have different eating habits and personalities. She made sure she texted me throughout her stay if she had any questions and sent us plenty of pics to keep us updated. She was very respectful of our home too. Her price is completely reasonable and I felt like the kids were in good hands with her. I would ask for her help again in the future and I definitely recommend.”


6. Jocelyn G.
“Jocelyn has been watching my Yorkie and now also my Pug for years. She’s a very caring and lovable person. She loves animals and has 3 of her own, 2 which are rescued dogs. every time i go on vacation she is the one I trust my dogs with. She’s responsible and will take good care. She treats every dog like her own.”

“Danny was great! He helped us out last minute when another sitter fell through for Thanksgiving. He was prompt, communicative, and did a great job with our dog and cat! We’ll definitely be using him again in the future :)”


14. Erica S.
About: I was always had furry siblings but have graduated to a cat mama. I enjoy creating personal heavens for our companions. Reliable, punctual and kind. I have a full-time job that pays the bills but I am looking for ways to feed my soul. Overnights are great as well as drop ins. I would prefer to host at client's homes as my current home does not allow dogs. Willing to board or take cats overnight. Let's make it a sleepover!


15. Daniel Z.
“Daniel has cared for pets all his life. He loves animals so he is willing to give all the love he can offer. He meets all the responsibilities when it comes to pet care. :)”


16. Emily D.

“Emily did a wonderful job! I always appreciate getting photos, but even in the pics you could see that my pup was very happy. She was prompt and very communicative. I will absolutely be keeping her number handy for my next trip!”


17. Kayleigh K.
About: Growing up my parents always had at least 3 dogs at a time so I learned at a very early age how to care for them! I now have 3 big dogs of my own who get walked daily all together. I have experience administering medicine whenever necessary and have potty trained multiple puppies. I have gladly cared for multiple senior dogs as well who needed more attention and some who frequently had accidents in the house. I can’t wait to get to know you and your fur babies no matter the age or size!! I am currently very flexible with my availability and can accommodate almost any hours for walking or any days for pet sitting. I’m more than happy to pet sit overnight any time during the week. I am able to stay with your pet in your home for long periods of time so they are not left alone too often. I also love to send plenty of pictures to my clients so they feel at ease that their pet is getting the best care! I can also offer daily walks for your dog if I am staying at your house if that is something you are interested in!


18. Victoria A.
“Tori is an amazing person. I have known her personally for many years but she started taking care of my fur babies about two years ago. They love her. I have a very skittish dog that will not warm up to anyone and Tori can get him to go outside for her, snuggle with her, etc. She is very loving, LOVES animals and will make sure your babies are taken care of. I know my animals can cause messes (I have 4 of them) and I always come back to my house clean and no sign of any messes (which I know she is covering for them). :) I would highly recommend Tori to anyone looking for a pet sitter. She will take care of them as if they are her own.”


19. Taylor W.
“Taylor is absolutely amazing! From the very first walk, they were punctual, professional and clearly experienced with dogs. I always feel confident that my dog is in great hands. 10/10”


20. Jennifer M.
“Jennifer was FANTASTIC! She actually spent time hanging out with my dogs when house sitting. Jennifer even came back over to check on dogs when flight got in late. I will use her again! Thank you!”
