“Donna did such a great job taking care of my little kitty boy Sebastian while we had flooring done in our home. Thank you so much Donna for your kindness and I will definitely be in contact in the future when I need a trusted person to care for my pet.”

“I couldn’t be more pleased with the care Steven provided for my pup, Abby! From the moment we met, it was clear he had a natural connection with dogs and a genuine love for animals. Abby was happy, well-exercised, and clearly well-loved while I was away. Steven kept me updated with messages, which gave me great peace of mind. It’s always a little nerve-wracking to leave your pet with someone new, but Steven exceeded all expectations. I returned to a happy, healthy pup. Highly recommend Steven to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter. I’ll definitely be reaching out to him again in the future!”

“My little old lady was so happy she didn't go to the door ready to leave when I got there! Brooke took the beat care of her❤️ I got lots of pictures. This was a last minute booking and Brooke responded quickly! She will be my go from this point!”

“Great experience!! Kail and Brenda are kind, loving people who took care of my dog Sadie. They have a large property and took her out to explore. She was fascinated with chickens and the ducks on their ponds. She was brushed and cared for each day. Altogether a better experience than being boarded with multiple other dogs in a closed pen. Highly recommend them.”

“Very satisfied overall with the experience. Provided regular updates and communication. Caution: Your little one may come back extra happy and spoiled from the love and attention/affection received. Looked very happy in the pics. Smiling Thank you Miss Mary and Mr. Felix for taking care of Max”


“Rachelle and Joseph were amazing and sent regular updates of our pup, Butters. He was right at home and we will absolutely use them in the future. True dog lovers.”

“Poria is amazing! My dog Bonnie didn’t want to leave! This time we had another puppy Winston stay with her and it was his first time away from home. She made both him and us feel comfortable and at ease. Always 5 star service”

“Can’t thank Emily enough for watching our pups! She sent updates and pictures throughout the weekend and made us feel reassured that our dogs were in great hands! Will definitely look to her whenever we need another sitter!”

“We had an amazing experience boarding our pup, Appa, with Tessa & Travis! They took fantastic care of him, and their dogs loved playing with him. Highly recommend their services for any pet parent!”

“Marcus was great during my trip to Florida! He was very attentive and even took notes during drop-off to ensure he knew everything about Polar. He sent me lots of pictures of Polar and provided frequent updates. 10/10, would book again :)”

“This is Reggie’s second time staying with Jennica. And we are so happy to have found her! She clearly loves dogs and gives our fur ball love and attention. She provides constant updates and stays on top of communication. We really appreciate her services!”

“My dogs had a great time with Joshua! I got lots of photos and updates. You could see how happy they were in the pics. He took great care of my 5 month old puppy and administered her medicine. So I'd definitely recommend him for your puppies and older dogs. They got lots of playtime outside but they were also kept inside with people and other dogs so they were not left lonely. Socializing is very important to me as my dogs are inside dogs and used to being with people. It was a great experience for us and we will definitely book again.”


“Nicole and her husband are amazing with our huskies Taz and Kira- they treat them like family, have been incredibly accommodating with travel changes, and the girls always come home happy and relaxed. They even take them for trips to the dog park to run around and socialize which they love! Can’t say enough positive about our experience with Nicole, highly recommend!”

“She's been wonderful and gave us daily updates. It was my first time boarding Jax anywhere and she made me at ease with her updates and how she seemed to approach him. All in all a good experience for us.”

“Michelle was super sweet and sent pics and videos the whole time our dog stayed with her. She had great communication and our dog did not want to leave. Her dog was so sweet too and they got along great.”

“Amazing person to take care of my dog. Samantha showed her vast experience during our meet and greet by asking a lot of really good questions to make sure he was taken care like it was her dog. Over the 2 week period, she sent numerous updates and pictures. I can't say enough good things about the experience. I highly recommend her and will definitely reach back out for more pet visits. Thank you so much!”

“Ms. Alexis was absolutely amazing watching Biscuit! She was so accommodating and helpful as we had a sudden funeral to attend. Biscuit was extremely well taken care of and if you need someone who will truly love and take care of your pet, I 100% recommend using Ms. Alexis”

“Elizabeth’s communication is excellent; we also appreciate the pictures sent to us while we are away. Upon arriving back home, we found food and water as if we had done them ourselves. It’s really nice peace of mind to have Elizabeth taking care of our pets!”


“Many thanks to Caitlin for taking such good care of my bengal! She’s very accommodating and communicative! First time having to hire a cat-sitter and I couldn’t have asked for a better service 👍”


“Morgan was wonderful from start to finish. We booked a drop-in visit first so Coco could meet her before committing to house sitting, and it turned out to be a perfect match. Coco is the shyest dog in the world and is usually very hesitant around new people. Morgan was incredibly patient and allowed Coco to approach her at her own pace without any pressure. By the end of the visit, Coco was comfortable enough to let Morgan pet her and be close to her, which is something she rarely does with strangers. Morgan is kind, gentle, and clearly understands how to work with nervous dogs. We were so happy to find her and feel very confident leaving Coco in her care. We will definitely be booking house sitting with Morgan and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a caring and patient sitter.”


“I would highly recommend Devin and plan on having her come again. Our meet and greet really set my mind at ease and she provided daily pictures/updates. Her love of animals really shows. Thanks Devin!”


About: I’ve been around cats my entire life and understand that every cat has a unique personality and comfort level. I have experience caring for cats of different ages, from playful kittens to senior cats, and I’m comfortable with feeding, litter box maintenance, administering basic care, playtime, and providing companionship. I understand that cats can be sensitive to changes in their routine, so I take the time to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. Whether your cat is social and loves attention or prefers a quieter approach, I’ll respect their needs and provide care tailored to their personality. As a Veterinary Technician student and pet owner myself, I know how important it is to have someone trustworthy caring for your pets. My goal is to keep your cat happy, healthy, and stress-free until you’re back home.

“Hannah did a great job taking care of my kitties!! She even went above and beyond and swept around the litter box and brought in packages for us! She sent me pictures and kept me updated on them as well.”

“Rebecca was truly a gem! She was super communicative and sent photos and videos! My cats definitely loved her! Thank you so much for taking such great care of my actual children! <3”


“Nicole was great to work with! She was flexible with us as we added different little tasks to the to-do list or added an extra visit throughout our time away. She also put in the effort and was adaptive in her approach to get on our cats good side. She is truly kind, and cares about giving your pets (and the owners!) the best experience that she can. Definitely recommend and will be booking with her again!”

“Tori is great! She’s very flexible and my boys love her! Unfortunately, for her my work schedule is chaotic and I’m booking her on short notice but she always takes it in stride! 100% would recommend”

About: I have experience with high energy dogs such as German Sheppard and Goldendoodle. I have a senior dog and I have experience with administering medicine daily. I currently work 8-5 but half day on Fridays. I can stop by before or after work to check on animals. I can also do weekends I use a wireless fence at home so I am currently not offering in home care. But I am experienced in making sure those machines work
About: Total animal lover. I work full time but I have three days off a week. I love keeping animals when I can. I don't have any breed restrictions or age limits. I don't ever get asked to keep puppies but I will. I will keep up with whatever exercise your dog requires. I like to keep dogs tired so there's lots of play time and walking at my house. I can follow any feeding/potty schedule. I am capable and comfortable with caring for special needs dogs. I can administer any medication, if needed. I try not to board more than one dog at a time unless it's urgent to my client. I have a deep love of all animals so I can assure your dog will get plenty of attention and good care. I work Wednesday through Saturday so my off days are Sunday, Monday, Tuesday. This doesn’t include holidays. Willing to negotiate or work with other schedules I have a gate around my property at my home and I use baby gates to keep dogs out of certain areas (great if dogs need to be separated).
About: I have had pets my whole life. I have experience with puppies from one month old and up and well as cats. I watch a few friends pets! I am currently work but get my schedule usually a few weeks in advance so can work with you! I take my dogs for walks so would love to take yours as well! I four friendly well behaved dogs at home and have had several other pets as well. I would love to help you and your family out when needed. I currently work fulltime as a pharmacy technician but get my schedule a week or two in advance so can work with your schedules as well! We have a large fenced in yard and our dogs play fetch all the time. During the summer we get out their dog swimming pool and let them play for hours!
About: I'm an enthusiastic animal lover with a true passion for caring for pets of all shapes and sizes. I live on a mini farm where I share my life with a variety of animals, including goats, pigs, sheep, dogs, cats, a bearded dragon, a hamster, and fish! I have a special fondness for dogs and understand their unique needs and personalities. My experience in the medical field has equipped me to handle various emergencies, so you can rest assured that your furry friends will be in safe hands. I believe in loving animals unconditionally and providing them with the care they deserve. Whether it’s playtime, walks, or just cuddling on the couch, I’m dedicated to ensuring that your pets feel comfortable and loved while you're away! Feel free to reach out if you have any questions or if you’d like to chat about how I can help care for your beloved pets! I currently work full time so I am only available on the weekends and some evenings! My calendar is blocked out for most week days but please feel free to reach out if you need your dog walked or a quick drop-in and I will see how I’m able to assist during the week! When caring for pets in someone else's home, I start by obtaining detailed instructions from the owner about feeding schedules, exercise routines, and any specific needs. I make sure to familiarize myself with the household rules regarding pet access and do my best to maintain the pets' regular routines to minimize their stress. I always provide fresh water, follow feeding instructions, and engage the pets in regular play and exercise. I keep a watchful eye on them for any signs of distress or health issues, and I make sure to keep the environment clean by tidying up after them. Spending quality time with the pets is important to me, as it helps them feel secure and loved. I also familiarize myself with the nearest veterinarian and have the owner's contact information handy for emergencies. Lastly, I keep the owner updated with messages or photos to reassure them that their pets are happy and well cared for. By following these guidelines, I ensure a positive experience for both myself and the pets.

About: Hi, I’m Brooke! I’m home with my 7 month old and have two dogs and a cat, so we are very pet friendly, my husband and I love our animals. Your pet would get a lot of attention here. I keep things as relaxed as possible and treat your pet like part of my family :) We spend time outside, and have plenty of cuddles inside. I have a fenced yard, and pets are welcome on my furniture. I’ll send you pictures and updates while you’re away too so you feel very comfortable knowing your pet is taken care of. Feel free to reach out if you want to know more or set some time to meet beforehand ☺️ Pet care is a big part of my everyday life! I’m home all day. Between my own two dogs and any pets I’m looking after, my day usually includes lots of walks, playtime, cuddles, and keeping everyone on a good schedule. I love being able to give each pet the attention and care they need throughout the day. My backyard is fully fenced and offers plenty of space for potty breaks and outdoor play. I am very trust worthy and make sure your pet is secured safely in my home leaving no doors open for long periods of time.

“Mrs. Chelly and Mr. Joe are an absolute pleasure to be with! I can already tell that they are going to provide continuous top level care for my puppy while she’s with them. Absolutely going to be taking her back. Thank you Mrs. Chelly and Mr. Joe! I’ll be seeing y’all again very soon!”

“Geraldine and her husband has been amazing with our Nui boy! They have been amazing in watching, caring and loving him while we went on our family trip to Hilo. She kept us up to date on how he was doing every day and took lots of pictures of him which made us so happy that he was enjoying himself. She is great with Nui as he is very anxious and it was his very first time away from us at all. She’s amazing and so much so that we asked for her to watch him for the day so that we could enjoy celebrating a birthday without having to worry about him. We appreciate Geraldine and her hubby for all that they do and we definitely recommend her to everyone! We will definitely keep her in mind should we need services again. Grateful and thankful for the aloha she shares with our Nui boy. Mahalo Nui loa!”

“We drove down from Ohio for a graduation in GA and needed to find someone to care for our 1.5 year old golden doodle. We’ve never left her with anyone before and were a bit nervous, especially before 12 hours from home. We were so happy with Mary and Felix and the care they gave her. We appreciated the pictures of our sweet girl that they sent to us as well. We have another graduation next year and will be reaching back out to them again for sure when we are back in the state.”

“We were in town for a funeral and very thankful to find Kail on Rover. He and his wife took excellent care of our big fur baby. They have a lovely property they took him on a walk and he got to play with their dog. On our 3 hour car ride back home he was actually tuckered out enough to curl up and go to sleep (instead of pestering to have the window down on a hot July day). Very thankful Kail could help us in this time of need.”

About: I've had dogs of all sizes and ages since childhood. My husband faithfully walks the dogs at least once a day. We have two small dogs who love to play and run. We would love to have your dogs here with us well-taken care of while you are away! Tessa is a stay-at-home mom who occasionally babysits or subs at school. If we accept your reservation, she will be here at home to take care of the dogs as needed. We have a fully fenced yard. We usually leave our doggie window open except in extreme weather, so your dog can go in and out as desired. We have a dachshund mix and a shiz tsu/ poodle who would love to keep your dog company
“Amazing, amazing. Brandi sends photos and videos throughout the day. Hershey is always enjoying his time playing with toys, playing outside with his new furry friends, and enjoying sweet naptimes after he’s all tuckered out. Will continue to use Brandi for future pup day care.”

“Heather was fantastic! I get so nervous leaving Bandito with people and she sent me lots of pictures and videos to help put my mind and ease and show me how he was settling in. I will definitely be taking Bandito back. Thank you for taking such great care of my baby!”

About: I’m the type of person that if I see someone handing out free puppies or if I see a lost dog, I’ll be taking them home. I’ve always had such empathy for animals, that on multiple occasions I have done this. For example, last year there was a man handing out free puppies outside of a petco. I almost immediately took him home. The feeling of taking him and giving him a bath, food, and water was so rewarding. I’ve since realized I love working with animals and wish to continue my work. I would absolutely love to help you out with watching your pet while you’re away. I’m currently a college student. I only have classes on Mondays and Wednesday’s, but anytime after class I’ll be able to dedicate my time to your pet. In my home, I have one dog of my own, and I have a fenced in yard. My dog loves to swim, so if yours does too I’m happy to watch them while they swim. I’ve had a lot of experience with crates so I’m equipped to handle them. No matter what, I just want your pet to be safe and comfortable while you’re away!
About: I’ve cared for dogs of all breeds my whole life and often looked after neighbors’ pets too—loving, reliable, and experienced animal caregiver who truly cares!

Your pet’s safety is my top priority. While I don’t have a fenced yard, I offer a spacious home, a secure screened patio, and plenty of supervised play. My two friendly cats love company, and I always ensure a calm, clean, and loving environment where your pet will feel comfortable and cared for.
“Amazing! Hands down best pet sitter/doggie daycare ever! George (1yr old large dog) had a great time and made new friends and learned so much ?Will be doing daycare with Alexcis exclusively-she’s truly amazing. George is now taking a nap before 6pm ?Truly amazing ?”

“My dog loves this woman. She did a few drop-in visits for us prior to in-home daycare. We pulled up to her home and, when she saw Chelsey, my timid pup went trotting into Chelsey’s house like she forgot I existed (she was excited to see me at pickup, so no hard feelings lol). Have already booked her again!”

About: We are an animal loving family of five. My husband, children, and I adore dogs and will lovingly take care of yours while you’re away! I am a stay at home parent so I'm home and available much of the time to tend to your pet as needed. I love exercising and being outdoors and would love to take your dog for a walk or run depending on his or her needs. I'm also willing to take care of multiple dogs if you have more than one. Your pet is sure to get plenty of affection and attention here with all of our family members! We are flexible and adaptable to whatever your pet needs. The highlight of my day is spending time with and caring for animals. I will make sure your pet is loved and doted on and has their needs met! I adore cats and would love to come to your house to care for your cat/cats but at this time I cannot board cats at our home.
“My puppy came home tired out and wagged her tail to go back when she saw Mary the next time. Very busy home with lots of action and fun. Mary was very responsive, able to provide updates, and followed requests. Thanks!”

About: I have taken care of multiple animals. I have experience in providing medication as well as dog walking. I’m excited to have the opportunity to love on your fur baby while you are away. I work, but my schedule is flexible enough to fit in regular feedings, playtime, and check-ins throughout the day. I can adjust visits around work hours, and I always make sure your pet stays on their routine with plenty of attention, clean litter, and love built in. I follow each pet’s routine closely meals on time, fresh water, clean litter boxes, walks or play as needed, and plenty of attention based on their comfort level.

About: Hey, I’m Ridge. I’ve been around animals my entire life and treat every pet like they’re my own. I have 15+ years of hands-on experience caring for dogs, starting with my own Schnauzer growing up and continuing through years of helping family, friends, and neighbors with their pets. I’ve worked with dogs of all breeds and sizes, including pet sitting, dog walking, and daily care routines. In addition to dogs, I’ve also cared for cats, fish, and reptiles, so I’m comfortable with a wide range of pets and their specific needs. Right now, I help care for three family dogs, along with assisting friends and family whenever they need reliable pet care. I enjoy staying active with pets—whether that’s going to the dog park, playing, walking, or just spending quality time making sure they feel safe and comfortable. I’m currently a college student, but I have a flexible schedule, which allows me to offer pet sitting, house sitting, and drop-in visits on both weekdays and weekends. I’ve got a pretty flexible schedule—just let me know what you’re looking for and we can work out the details from there. I’m happy to adjust to what works best for you and your pets! I provide care by coming directly to your home, where your pets feel safest and most comfortable in their familiar environment. This helps reduce stress and keeps their daily routine consistent while you’re away. I prioritize creating a calm, secure atmosphere by following your pet’s normal feeding, walking, and care schedule as closely as possible. I also make sure your home is respected and kept clean and organized during my visits or overnight stays. My goal is to build trust with both you and your pets by providing reliable, attentive care so you can feel confident knowing everything is being handled responsibly while you’re away.

We are retired and are at home most all the time so your fur baby will not be lonely in your absence. We're never too busy to give them the attention they deserve. Most dogs enjoy being outside. I do too! I take them for long walks and let them explore all the smells and surroundings. If they want to nap, I don't mind them on my lap. We have a lot of toys for them to play with. We've sensitive to their needs and feelings. We like to send a lot of pictures and updates so their owners will have peace of mind.

About: I have worked and been around animals since I was born. I use to work for a reserve rehabilitator and animal shop owner. I have worked with many breeds of cats and dogs and understand each one can be uniquely different. What works for one may not always work for another. I’m retired navy so I have all day to work with your animals. I can do drop ins throughout the day to check on them to let them out or take on a walk. Pretty flexible schedule. In my home I have a 5 year old husky who has been raised around cats and puppies. He is good at helping correct puppies. He has had one litter of his own pups. I do not have a fenced yard, but can take them on leash in the yard and live in a nice neighborhood to walk your animal. If you want crate training I have a couple already here at the house

About: I’ve been dog sitting for around 4 years now. I’ve taken care of up to 3 dogs at a time, as well as dogs of all sizes from King Charles Spaniel’s to American XL Bully. I have taken care of senior dogs, and less than year old puppies. I repeat dog sit for many families! I and trustworthy and responsible, and take care of the house while you’re away as well!

I can be very flexible though, and will work around what works best for your animals! I will happily take your pups out in the back yard, take them for walks, cuddle with them, bathe them, and give them plenty of treats and love!

About: What sets me apart is my genuine love for animals and my hands-on experience caring for dogs. I had a dog named Bella who was part of my family for 10 years, which taught me the importance of patience, responsibility, and understanding a dog’s needs at every stage of life. I am attentive, reliable, and committed to making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. Whether it’s providing exercise, companionship, or extra attention, I treat every pet as if they were my own. I’m currently working part time and looking to watching and walking your pets.Im available to help anytime during the week and weekends when i’m needed. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their normal routine as closely as possible to help their pets feel comfortable and secure. I provide fresh food and water, walks, playtime, bathroom breaks, and plenty of attention and companionship. I also make sure the home is kept clean and that any specific instructions from the owner are followed carefully. My goal is to ensure every pet feels safe, happy, and well cared for while their owner is away.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats for my family for about a year now, and I’ve been wanting to walk dogs for a while now, and I believe I’m the best choice for your needs. I am currently on summer break, so I’ll have plenty of time to spend with you animals! I am available any day of the week from 7am-9PM. I live in a house with a fenced in yard that my cat loves to play in. He loves to go on rides weekly. I also clean out his litter box daily.
About: I love animals. I have lots of cat experience and a bit less dog experience. I love to pet sit for my friends when they go out of town and I enjoy walking dogs for my daily exercise. My favorite thing to do these days is to stay home and watch movies with my cat or my parents’ 3-legged dog. I’m very attentive to the needs of animals to include their safety, cleanliness and health. I’m a nurse and I work 12 hour shifts. This means my schedule gives me more days off during the week when compared to a 9-5 job, but my schedule is not the same each week. If we schedule pet sitting in advance, this is what I would prefer. Last minute appointments would be fine too if I am off work for the day. I’m a bit of a night owl so weird hours are fine too. I have a fenced back yard and have hosted puppies before that I was fostering for a local rescue. I have a cat so dog friendly cats are preferred if you want them to stay over at my place. I can also stay at your place if preferred. I have a car
“Madison did a great job with our puppy! She was very timely and made sure to send me pictures and keep me in the loop on how he was doing. It was so comforting knowing my puppy was getting love and attention when I couldn’t be there. Will definitely be booking again!”

About: Total animal lover. I work full time but I have three days off a week. I love keeping animals when I can. I don't have any breed restrictions or age limits. I don't ever get asked to keep puppies but I will. I will keep up with whatever exercise your dog requires. I like to keep dogs tired so there's lots of play time and walking at my house. I can follow any feeding/potty schedule. I am capable and comfortable with caring for special needs dogs. I can administer any medication, if needed. I try not to board more than one dog at a time unless it's urgent to my client. I have a deep love of all animals so I can assure your dog will get plenty of attention and good care. I work Wednesday through Saturday so my off days are Sunday, Monday, Tuesday. This doesn’t include holidays. Willing to negotiate or work with other schedules I have a gate around my property at my home and I use baby gates to keep dogs out of certain areas (great if dogs need to be separated).
About: I have had pets my whole life. I have experience with puppies from one month old and up and well as cats. I watch a few friends pets! I am currently work but get my schedule usually a few weeks in advance so can work with you! I take my dogs for walks so would love to take yours as well! I four friendly well behaved dogs at home and have had several other pets as well. I would love to help you and your family out when needed. I currently work fulltime as a pharmacy technician but get my schedule a week or two in advance so can work with your schedules as well! We have a large fenced in yard and our dogs play fetch all the time. During the summer we get out their dog swimming pool and let them play for hours!

“I couldn’t be more pleased with the care Steven provided for my pup, Abby! From the moment we met, it was clear he had a natural connection with dogs and a genuine love for animals. Abby was happy, well-exercised, and clearly well-loved while I was away. Steven kept me updated with messages, which gave me great peace of mind. It’s always a little nerve-wracking to leave your pet with someone new, but Steven exceeded all expectations. I returned to a happy, healthy pup. Highly recommend Steven to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter. I’ll definitely be reaching out to him again in the future!”

“Great experience!! Kail and Brenda are kind, loving people who took care of my dog Sadie. They have a large property and took her out to explore. She was fascinated with chickens and the ducks on their ponds. She was brushed and cared for each day. Altogether a better experience than being boarded with multiple other dogs in a closed pen. Highly recommend them.”


“Rachelle and Joseph were amazing and sent regular updates of our pup, Butters. He was right at home and we will absolutely use them in the future. True dog lovers.”

“Can’t thank Emily enough for watching our pups! She sent updates and pictures throughout the weekend and made us feel reassured that our dogs were in great hands! Will definitely look to her whenever we need another sitter!”

“Marcus was great during my trip to Florida! He was very attentive and even took notes during drop-off to ensure he knew everything about Polar. He sent me lots of pictures of Polar and provided frequent updates. 10/10, would book again :)”

“My dogs had a great time with Joshua! I got lots of photos and updates. You could see how happy they were in the pics. He took great care of my 5 month old puppy and administered her medicine. So I'd definitely recommend him for your puppies and older dogs. They got lots of playtime outside but they were also kept inside with people and other dogs so they were not left lonely. Socializing is very important to me as my dogs are inside dogs and used to being with people. It was a great experience for us and we will definitely book again.”


“Nicole and her husband are amazing with our huskies Taz and Kira- they treat them like family, have been incredibly accommodating with travel changes, and the girls always come home happy and relaxed. They even take them for trips to the dog park to run around and socialize which they love! Can’t say enough positive about our experience with Nicole, highly recommend!”

“She's been wonderful and gave us daily updates. It was my first time boarding Jax anywhere and she made me at ease with her updates and how she seemed to approach him. All in all a good experience for us.”

“Michelle was super sweet and sent pics and videos the whole time our dog stayed with her. She had great communication and our dog did not want to leave. Her dog was so sweet too and they got along great.”

“Amazing person to take care of my dog. Samantha showed her vast experience during our meet and greet by asking a lot of really good questions to make sure he was taken care like it was her dog. Over the 2 week period, she sent numerous updates and pictures. I can't say enough good things about the experience. I highly recommend her and will definitely reach back out for more pet visits. Thank you so much!”

“Ms. Alexis was absolutely amazing watching Biscuit! She was so accommodating and helpful as we had a sudden funeral to attend. Biscuit was extremely well taken care of and if you need someone who will truly love and take care of your pet, I 100% recommend using Ms. Alexis”

“Charles did an amazing job taking care of Kenji. From daily updates and photos to ensuring Kenji had walks and playtime. Kenji got along well with Knox, who is a Dalmatian as well. Kenji was happy when I returned, and it was a huge relief to know he was in such good hands. Highly recommend Charles for anyone needing a dependable and caring dog sitter!”

“Ashley was awesome . My Rose had a great time at her house! I was a little nervous leaving Rose there because she has two pits but they handled her like she was one of the pack! Rose is 9 months old and very energetic , all in your bubble, hey look at me kind of dog and her dogs was wonderful with her!!! I highly recommend Ashley for your pet care needs!!!”

“Sarah and Hagan provided a great place for my Weimaraner to stay over a long weekend. They have an air conditioned kennel with large fenced in area perfect for any size dog to be comfortable! Our 11 month old pup has a lot of energy and can get anxious when left alone but seemed to have a great time and was checked on regularly. They are very educated on handling dogs. We received plenty of pictures and videos during our dog’s stay. Would highly recommend Sarah and Hagan!”

“Geraldine, Where do I start with your excellent care of my Carin Terrier Nessie! She looked so relaxed & happy in every picture you sent! I notice her belly has less hair, so I know the belly rubs she dearly loves, were an hourly event! Thank you & your husband for being the fur baby lovers you advertise to be. We will be back! Vicki & Nessie”


“Ms. Valerie was an amazing host. She was flexible on drop off and pickup. She sent several updates and pictures during our dog's stay. You can tell she truly loves animals. She took care of our dog as if it was hers. I can't say enough positive things about her or her home. Highly recommended!”


About: I’ve been raised with many pets, and started caring for others than my own a few years ago. I’ve looked after senior animals, babies, and all in between! I’ll be your pets favorite human (until you get back)! I’m currently home from college for the summer and have a free schedule! I have my own car and am free all day for check-ins, play time, and walks! I also have experience with overnight care as well! I’ve pet-sit and house-sat for many satisfied families in the past, and follow any instructions given! I’m sure your pets have a favorite hangout spot at your house or around the neighborhood, and I’m happy to accompany them!
