“We booked our second house sitting experience with Brian, and he was fantastic again! He even took our senior puppy to her vet appointment, as we couldn't make it home in time. Thank you Brian for taking such great care of our girl.”

3. Ozzy J.

“Ozzy charmed our dogs, and our dogs were charmed by Ozzy. They were a bit late, but communicated that they would be. They fed our dogs, gave them their medications, and set the bar pretty high for us, by giving them lots of love and pets while we were away. We look forward to hiring them again, and we highly recommend them.”

“Allie was wonderful! We had her do house sitting while away for a week. She was tidy in the house and so responsive to any communications. Dependable and trust worthy.

8. Ashleigh L.

“Ashleigh did a great job with watching my senior doggie. She picked up after herself and did more than asked for in regards to taking my dog on walks during her weekend stay with him. Definitely would use her as a sitter again!”

I will definitely ask Danielle to watch my pets again!”

About: I would be taking care of your fur baby with my partner who loves pets as much as I do. I’ve had dogs all throughout my life so I love being around them. I love playing and taking care of them no matter the size or breed any dog is a friend of mine.Plus 2 great sitters for your lovely pet what’s better than that❤️ Open availability at the moment. Just reach out to me and we can talk to make anything work for great care and a fun time with your pup. I always supervise the dog and make sure he or she has water at all time and if it’s outside at anytime I make sure they are always on a leash.

15. jess p.

“Jess was great with our animals. She stayed at our home with our two dogs and two cats while we were out of town. Jess was a great guest. She left the house clean and was very respectful of our space. She was very communicative during her stay, sending us several updates with pictures included. She bonded very well with all four of the animals and sent several photos of the cats snuggled up with her. She also brushed our saint bernard often and even offered to care for my plants!”


16. Laura R.
About: Ever since I was four years old I had my first puppy. I loved her with everything I had, I believe that love me and my family gave her made her have such a long life. She was a Pomeranian and chiwawa mix, she was said to live till 6 she lived till 15. I have also rescued each of my pets so I understand how to handle and gain trust from anxiety and scared dogs. I also have experience with puppies so I expect to have to clean messes and I am fine with that. I am 100% a dog person. I want dogs to be living their best lives and give them as much love as they give us. I handle stressful and intense situations well, I am good under pressure. I love all dogs little chiwawas to huge great danes, no pup phases me. I am also felxible! I currently work from home which makes dog care easily in my schedule. I have a dog in my apartment named Elton and I go by his schedule. We go on both a walk and to the park everyday. In home I like to keep my dog busy with toys and running around. When he needs outside time I will bring him on walks or to the park. I know of both a park with no dogs for those who prefer alone time and parks with kind dogs for those who like to play.


17. Chantel P.

“Chantel was amazing. We have 2 cats that need regular care and medication, as well as a rat who was being medicated too. We went away and came home to cats so calm and relaxed it was like we never left. The house and litter was possibly even cleaner than we left if. She sent regular pictures and updates. I would recommend Chantel to anyone; especially if they have high maintenance pets.”


18. Felicity S.
“Felicity did such an awesome job watching my dog over the weekend! It is really difficult to leave my pup, but I felt zero stress leaving her with Felicity. She had so much fun that she did not want to leave! It is so comforting to have my dog stay with someone I can trust while I am away.”


19. Kaylee P.

“Kaylee was amazing! Poppy absolutely loved her and Kaylee was understanding of me being a little helicopter mom checking in and was sending updates and photos. I will 1000000% be rebooking with her in the future!”


20. Sadie K.

“Sadie was very understanding with my pup that has some pretty bad separation anxiety. She treated both my pups with care and I would recommend her!”
