“Arisha is absolutely amazing. She was an excellent communicator, sending pictures and updates regularly. She was so sweet to all the animals, even trying to make progress with a very reluctant cat. She took great care of the house as well. I felt so calm knowing she was treating my fur babies like they were her own. She will definitely be my go-to sitter from now on!!”

“Mercedes was great - needed a sitter last minute to come house sit for a few hours. She showed up when the last rover sitter we tried to book had cancelled on us last minute. Agreed to come by and do a meet and greet the same day we needed to find kenji a sitter. Very reliable. Kenji seemed to absolutely love her company while we were gone. Will definitely use her for house visits in the future!”

“Connor was very reliable, trustworthy, honest and capable. He’s great with my sweet but needy Labrador and I trusted him to take care of my house when I was out of state. Such a blessing. We appreciate his good attitude, willingness to go above and beyond and reliability! Thank you, Connor!”

“Amy was great with our dogs. They instantly liked her too. She left the home in great condition. Amy sent us updates and pictures during her stay. We will love to use her again.”
“Maria was fantastic! We left on a weeklong trip and Maria not only took such great care of our pups, but she went above and beyond to spoil them. We appreciate the constant communication and feeling like we could leave out fur babies in great hands! Thank you for everything and we look forward to our next booking with you!”


“Jane was so sweet and great with my pets. She was flexible and understanding when our plans had to change due to unforeseen circumstances. She was a real blessing. She was punctual, thorough, and was consistent with checking in so I knew my pets were well taken care of! Totally recommend her to everyone!”

“I can’t recommend Alexa enough! We were already out of state when a severe snowstorm was forecasted. She ended up staying snowed in at our house for several days to take care of our pets. My pets love her, even my very shy cat! I really appreciate how great she is at communicating. She kept me updated with pictures and videos, and made sure to let me know her plans and timing. On top of everything, she left the house in fantastic condition. I’m so thankful for her and would absolutely trust her with my pets again.”

“Jocelyn went above and beyond for our Ranger. We came home to a happy Yorkie, clean house, and received pictures the whole weekend. We would highly recommend Jocelyn for pet sitting/house sitting. We will definitely book her again if she is available:)”

“Louann stayed with our 2 dogs over the weekend while we were away. She did a wonderful job and made us feel at ease knowing they were being taken care of and getting attention while we were gone. I will definitely use Louann again. It's hard to find someone who has such a passion for dogs as she does!”

“Samantha is a wonderful pet sitter and our 4 girls loved her. 🐶❤️ She even won over our latest rescue, who wouldn’t let us near her for the first 6 months after she showed up at our property. Samantha followed all instructions for our senior Schnauzer, who has to take meds four times a day, and sent pictures and videos every day. We will definitely be using her when we travel in the future.”
“The boys absolutely LOVED her and I also got lots of comfort with cute videos and pictures of the boys! Scooby says 100/10 best play mate and Prince says 100/10 best snuggles! Thank you!!”

“Brittany is an absolute gem! While I was on vacation, she stayed in my home to care for my dog, Zoey. Brittany updated me daily with adorable videos and pictures of Zoey enjoying her walks, playtime, and relaxation. It was reassuring to see Zoey having such a great time in my absence. What truly stood out was Brittany's expertise and experience with animal training and behavior modification. She worked with Zoey to help her adjust to my absence, and I've noticed a significant improvement in her confidence and behavior. Even on daily walks, Zoey is more relaxed and less anxious—a skill that will continue to benefit us long after the stay. Brittany is not only incredibly talented with animals but also professional, respectful, and above all, trustworthy. Her commitment to ensuring both Zoey and I felt comfortable throughout the process was remarkable. She treated our home with the utmost care, which was reassuring and instilled a sense of security in her services. I am so impressed with her dedication and work ethic. Brittany has set a high bar, and I will undoubtedly be booking her again to care for Zoey in the future. If you're looking for a dependable, skilled, and compassionate pet sitter, look no further than Brittany!”

About: I have been taking care of dogs and my own pet for a little over seven years now. I am most experienced with senior dogs, as most of my friends and family have older dogs with plenty of extra needs. I have fostered puppies for a few years now, and I am very well-versed in potty-training puppies as well! I currently have a full time job, Monday through Friday 8-5pm, some Saturdays 8-12pm and off on Sundays. I will be available to care for your pets in their own environment and safe place so they can feel comfortably in their own space and keep their same routine. I have a large, fenced backyard free of any harmful plants for my dog. Plenty of toys, a neighborhood perfect for walking, practicing leash training, and ample space for my pet to relax and play! I adhere to a schedule, whether it’s for my own or for my client, and I am very strict about it unless there is room for extra time depending on the dog’s mood/behavior. Very energetic, so your dog will receive proper exercise, attention, and so much love in my presence!
