Highly-rated overnight sitters - Polk
“Great couple to watch our pup. We wanted someone with a fenced in yard and other dogs to help socialize and tire our pup out and that’s exactly what we got. Our girl was happy to come back after the initial meet and greet and happy to book with them in the future.”

“Our dogs seemed to have had a great time! They came home and napped all day so they must've enjoyed playing with the other dogs haha We appreciated getting updates and pictures all weekend!”

“After we had a meet and greet Lelo was excited to come back and stay for the week. Bridget and her family made Lelo feel at home and loved. Bridget has a large room, where the dogs are free to play. Plenty of water and toys. Lelo can't wait to come back and hang out with her boys.”

“Nicole was kind, accommodating , flexible, and our dog Peach really did well with her! We received many updates with photos which was so much fun and appreciated! We didn’t even have to ask for those updates either 😊”

“Hannah was the perfect sitter for our three cats while we were out of town! Our boys were extremely well-taken care of and Hannah provided plentiful photos and information during her drop-ins. She was kind and very communicative through the whole process. I highly recommend Hannah for anyone looking for high-quality pet care!”


“Shelby did two drop-in visits for me. My girls were happy to see her and she met their needs perfectly. So glad I found Shelby to take care of my girls when I am away for long periods of a day.”

“Makayla did an outstanding job, We were away on vacation for a whole week and had her look in on the animals/house twice a day. She proved herself to be very loving and responsible! She was able to follow a detailed list of rules and responsibilities & my animals took to her very quickly which is especially unusual for my cat! Highly recommend 10/10!”


“Aaliyah was fantastic with Oliver! She was reliable, caring, and even took the time to administer his insulin properly each time that gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. Oliver was happy, healthy, and well cared for the whole time. Highly recommend Aaliyah to anyone needing a trustworthy, attentive sitter, especially for pets with medical needs or in general!”

“Shelby was able to accommodate my last minute booking, she did so with professionalism and so much flexibility! I was blown away by how sweet she was. She walked my dog, played with her in the house with her toys and went above and beyond for everything. The level of communication was great and she took pictures of the walk as well. My dog is shy with strangers and Shelby went slowly introducing herself to get her warmed up, had lots of treats for her. She was gentle while wrangling my energetic boxer puppy, and went out of her way to make me feel comfortable. Will definitely book again with her!”

“Mattey, my dog, loves Stephanie! His new best friends are Ryder & Max, her dogs. Stephanie made our trip wonderful because she let me know how Mattey was doing and sent lots of pictures!”

“There are no words to describe how incredibly grateful I am for Miranda and her services and that she even exists... I almost don't even want to put this all out here because then I have to share her with even more people! However, if I didn't tell it exactly as it is, I would be extremely selfish and feel terrible because someone else could lose out on having the beautiful experience of feeling the peace of mind (.... heart, and soul) to go on a trip and truly know your fur baby is being looked after not only responsibly, but with love and care. Oh, and that they would be having an absolute BLAST and the time of their lives!! I myself was worried my pup (River) wouldn't want to come back home 😂😂!! Miranda graciously took the time to communicate with me and shared many photos and videos of River's time with her and the crew there, and I loved every single second of all of them. Her Instagram page is where it's at too and an absolute must whether your baby is staying with her at the time or not... but definitely while they're staying b/c you get all the enjoyment of seeing them doing all the (very fun) things. Well worth every single penny in every way!! I will not hesitate in any way to have River stay with Miranda again when I go on another trip and I'm actually looking forward to doing so for myself and for River. Miranda, you're amazing and you've got an amazing thing going on... and you're stuck with us forever now 😁❤️🤗”

“We loved Vicki and her husband and so did Rudy! He ran off with her as soon as we got there and that was enough to put me at ease. He had a wonderful time and they treated him as their own. She sent pics during his stay and was in touch often, which I appreciated so much! Her home is lovely and we will 100% be bringing Rudy back for future stays! :)”

“Rumi took great care of my Bernese mountain dog Flynn! He was in literal paradise, she sent updates with photos, she was very easy to get ahold of and communicate with, and made his entire stay so wonderful! We will for sure be using her services again!!”

“Kelsi was amazing, her home is set up perfectly for dogs and my dog absolutely loved his time there. She was very responsive and even sent me pictures throughout the booking”
