“Ashley was great with our 1 year old GSD puppy! She stayed overnight at our house with our puppy and two cats. She sent pictures of her overnight stay for our peace of mind as well. She was very responsible and professional. My husband and I will 100% request her services in the future!”

“Juliana did such a great job taking care of our dog for the weekend. She was super communicative & made sure our dog got tons of love while we were away. Looking forward to using her in the future!!”

“Alex did a great job with Chip while I was out of town. It was clear he gave Chip lots of attention and gave him plenty of exercise. Alex was also very communicative and provided great updates!”

“Merissa is a wonderful sitter and we are extremely happy with the care she provides! We have a few senior animals with special food and medical needs, and she made sure to follow all our instructions and kept us updated throughout her stay. She makes sure all of the animals are well-exercised and stimulated. We already have our next sit booked with her and highly recommend her as a responsible and thoughtful sitter.”

About: Working with animals is both my night and day job! What sets me apart is my calm, attentive approach and genuine love for animals. I’m experienced with both high-energy animal's and seniors needing gentle, consistent care. I adapt easily to each animals routine and personality, making them feel safe and loved. I like to provide updates, so you never have to worry while you’re away. Pet care fits naturally into my routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with my own two dogs. I plan to provide what I do to your companions. This includes walks, playtime, feeding, grooming, and attention, making every pet feel prioritized. I work part time so I make sure to stay organized and flexible so I can provide reliable, consistent care. In a client’s home, I respect their space and follow any rules or routines if asked to ensure pets feel comfortable and safe. I double check doors, monitor behavior, and keep a clean, safe environment. I will never leave pets unsupervised in unsafe conditions and will communicate clearly with owners, so they know their pet is cared for like my own.
“Ashley was a fantastic sitter. She stepped in when my sitter fell through at the last minute and took great care of my very energetic 11 month old and 60 pound pup. Grace is an energetic pup and Ashley had no problem keeping her entertained; she even took her for car rides. Ashley was able to give Grace her medication and took her on multiple walks a day. She also took great care of my house, took out the garbage, and left everything in perfect condition. Grace was obviously very well looked after and Ashley's attentiveness made me feel comfortable being so far away from home for the first time. i would recommend Ashley for any and all types pet care and sitting. She was a lifesaver on short notice and I will use her any time I travel in the future.”

“Kevin did a fantastic job house sitting with Igloo for the day! He even went out of his way to come meet Igloo a couple days before so that she would be comfortable staying with a new person in the house. He kept us updated with photos during the day. It was great being able to have the day to ourselves and not worry - we would definitely have him back again!”

“Our experience with Jessica was absolutely amazing. We were gone for a week, and she took such incredible care of our two dogs. Taking care of two dogs can be a lot, but Jessica handled everything so well and made the whole process stress-free for us She kept us updated regularly with pictures and messages, and it was clear the dogs were getting tons of love, attention, and care every single day. One of our dogs is usually cautious around new people and was completely adamant about not warming up to anyone at first but by mid week, they had become best buddies. Seeing that level of trust and comfort honestly meant so much to us. When we got home, the dogs were so happy, relaxed, and attached to her routine that it actually took them almost 10 minutes to realize we were back! That alone says everything about how comfortable and cared for they felt during the stay. We’re very grateful for the care and attention she gave our pups and would gladly trust her again in the future. Highly recommend”

“Heather took care of my young, high-energy dog while we were on vacation for a week and did an excellent job. We received frequent unsolicited updates, which I really appreciated. She did a great job keeping him busy and entertained. She also left our house very neat and tidy. I would absolutely book with her again in the future.”

“Madalyn is a true professional! She recently cared for our two Newfoundlands for a night where her knowledge of large breed dogs was essential. She communicated frequently with us and kept us updated with pictures. We have been seeking a consistent caregiver for our pups and we have found her!”


“Natasha stayed with our dog and two cats over a weekend. Since this was our first time working with her, she was kind enough to setup a meet and greet ahead of time. Everything went very smoothly and we look forward to having her stay with our pets again.”

“Patricia was great to work with, she always sent multiple pictures and updates with each visit while she house sat our two goofy senior dogs. Thanks for taking great care of them!”

“Anna was awesome!! I really appreciated her updates and communication. She left the house in great shape. Most importantly, my cat Azi clearly adored her, and I could travel knowing he was safe and happy. Will definitely hire again :)”

About: Hi! I’m a lifelong animal lover with 11 years of experience who provides a safe, clean, and loving environment. I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your fur baby, and I’ll treat them like part of the family. I enjoy walks, playtime, and making sure each dog gets plenty of attention and affection. I can’t wait for all the new amazing pets I will get to meet and have the privilege of taking care of! I work full-time 8am- 4pm Monday through Friday, so best with dogs that are comfortable being home alone during the workday. Before and after work, I’ll provide walks, playtime, feeding, and lots of attention. On evenings and weekends, I’ll have much more time to spend with them! I grew up with dogs and have loved caring for them my entire life. After recently losing my family dog to old age, I want to continue sharing that love by caring for other people’s pets. I provide a safe, loving environment, follow each pet’s routine, and treat every animal like family. My goal is to give you peace of mind while you’re away.
“Patrick was amazing! He was so kind and responsive to my cats and my dog! He sent my partner and I lots of updates and communicated with us. I would 100% books again!”

“I am a nervous pup mom and I want Coco Moose in his home. I tried traditional boarding and was mortified. I am so glad I found/connected with Emer. She is so helpful and understanding of my pup mom feelings. Her communication while I was away, was next level! Text with updates and she sent 1 of the cutest pictures ever along with many others. She spoiled him with extra walks too. When I returned home, Coco was happy, content and obviously very well taken care of. My home looked exactly as I left it. I can't wait until my next trip to have Emer back. It's 1 less thing I need to worry about when I need to leave. THANK YOU!”

About: I had over ten dogs growing up, both large and small, and have had three cats. All have lived to an old age and had a wonderful quality of life! I work from 7am-3pm Monday-Friday with occasional work from homes, so I can provide pet care in the early morning and/or afternoon/evening! On weekends, I am flexible! I focus on building trust and affection with pets, ensuring play time and pets are on their terms, giving space as needed! I am big on safety and keeping a watchful eye on them.

We had to scramble to find a sitter last min after our previous option had to back out and luckily we were able to find Vanesa. She did a great job keeping us updated during our trip with pictures and made it a little easier to leave our furry family at home knowing they were in good hands.

Jessica was wonderful. Our first day out one of our dogs got sick. Jessica took excellent care of him. Told us what was happening and kept us informed throughout the day on his progress. He couldn't have asked for better care. Our other dog, feeling left out really took advantage of the older dog not feeling well and stole all of Jessica's available time. Jessica was awesome with both of them and our adapting instructions. We would not hesitate to ask Jessica back to watch our dogs.

Patrick was great house sitting with our big, needy, oaf of a dog. Our pup can be reactive with other dogs while walking, Patrick ha no trouble with him and was also good with giving him meds. He is courteous, timely and trustworthy. Our dog was comfortable right off the bat with him and was super chill when we got home. We'll continue to call on Patrick for sitting in the future & highly recommend him to others for sitting or walks.
Ashley is the most reliable, caring and conscientious dog sitter, and my Lola loves her, which makes my travels worry free. She gives me the best daily uodates, and I know that my dog is in great hands while I am away. I’d give her ten stars if that was an option,

Merissa, is a fan favorite. Our pups adore her and love spending time with her. They love snuggles and playtime with her. We love how well she takes care of our fur-babies. We know they are in great hands and that they will have a great time, which helps us to be able to enjoy our evening out.

Winona cat and housesit on the 4th of July weekend, during a loud and very scary time for animals. She was very communicative and responsive throughout the entire process of working with her. She sent photos throughout her visit! I felt like the cats were in very good hands with her and she set my mind at ease.
We had Bradley housesit for us and our dog and cat were so well taken care of. Both Tove and Buddy were completely content when we got home as if we never even left. Tove was given plenty of attention and walks. Bradley is able to handle Tove who has leash reactivity and can be a handful. Buddy also was at ease and seemed loved the extra attention. Overall a really wonderful experience and we hope to have Bradley sit for us again.

Eydid did an amazing job house sitting and pet setting my elderly cat Simone for nearly 3 weeks, while I was on honeymoon. He routinely sent pictures and videos and even spent the night a few times to give Simone night time cuddles, which she loves so much. She was in the best spirits I’ve seen my cat after being gone for so long I am recommending him (and Valeria) to all of my friends
