“Luca was amazing! We had a last minute trip and he was incredibly responsive and was able to meet up for a meet and greet very quickly. He took amazing care of our pup and our home for a few days while we were out of town. He sent frequent updates and pictures and overall was very communicative. Our dog was happy and our house was cleaner than we left it! 15/10, we will absolutely be using Luca again in the future and I recommend you do too!”

“Brigit was GREAT! Very thoughtful and communicated often to let us know how everything was going. We came back to find our crazy, energetic puppy a calmer puppy. Our older dog initially had some trust issues but Brigit kept working with him and when she came to drop the key off it was obvious that that was no longer an issue since he was so excited to see her. Thank you for taking such great care of our babies! I would definitely recommend Brigit!”
“Juan did a great job with our boy. We got updates and pictures and he was very responsive to any messages we sent while we were away. Took great care of the house as well!”

“Lucas was great! He reached out every day we were gone and even helped water our plants. The house was in order when we returned and most importantly our dog seemed happy and well cared for. We will definitely be using Lucas again in the future.”

About: I grew up on a farm with multiple dogs and cats, as well as your typical farm animals like horses, cows, pics, sheep etc. I especially love dogs and helped to train our dogs on the farm, as well as my current little Dachshund Obi who is the sweetest little boy. My most recent elderly dog sitting was a 3-week in-home visit that required a lot of physical assistance, as well as administering medications. I also find joy in taking care of animals and making both them and their owners comfortable. I'm a retired circus performer that currently directs, choreographs and teaches. Because this is part-time work, I have lots of free time to be available for your pets. When I'm in town, I'm available almost any day of the week and can easily work around my part-time work. I'm currently offering in-home visits, dog walking, and overnight care in your home. I always make sure to proactively communicate with my clients so that I'm fully informed as to how to make your pet to still feel at home, even with you away. Making sure they're healthy, happy and comfortable are my main concerns.
“Sheyenne was wonderfully accommodating with Shadow’s needs. She let Shadow sleep on the bed with her and gave her lots of love and petting. I would use Sheyenne again in a heartbeat!”

“Ck B. did a great job of house and pet sitting for me. My precious pup, Luna, warmed up to Ck very quickly. Ck is a consumate professional and I am very appreciative that she spent considerable time at my home, while I was out of town. I also appreciate Ck's due diligence to my pet's care and feeding, as well as her sending me photos of Luna to keep me informed. I will definitely request Ck for future house and pet sitting.”

“Jace is so friendly and professional! She took great care of our home and our fur and feather friends. Thank you so much for the peace of mind while we were away!!”

About: Dogs are well and dear to my heart, I currently don't have any dogs due to my heart dog passing about 1 year ago but she taught me that all pets young and old deserve a loving person to care for them and love them when their person can't be there. I have experience with a wide variety of dogs and cats and all of them deserve love. I currently have a full time job as a veterinary assistant and receptionist so I do work there 5 days a week from 7am to 4:30pm and thay is why I decided I should be able to care for fur babies on the weekends so I can dedicate more time to loving them while their pet parent is away. I am felixable if someone lived closer to me and my work then I may try and work out week day pet sitting plans. Every pet is different and their pets parents know them best. I always like to have a written list of their daily routines, when they get fed, how much food they get, if they need to sit and wait for their food. What activities they like the most, if they have any medications then I like to have a list of those and times to give them. Staying at a parent's home to love their pet for them gives the pet the familiarity of being in their own space instead of somewhere new, I leave the home better than I arrived. Sometimes I just do several drop in visits a couple time through the day depending on if I am not wanted to stay in the home.
“Sara was great with both my older dog and baby cat! She stayed with them overnight and everything went smoothly. Both animals didn't seem phased that I had been gone for a few days, which such a good sign! I plan on using her again for future stays, she was great!”


“This was my first time using Kristen for house sitting. She did an excellent job! I have a special needs dog and she took great care of her. She was respectful of her space and body language. She gave me regular updates and feedback as to what was happening. She went out of her way to accommodate my dog. I really appreciate her thoroughness and kindness towards my animals.”

“Elena helped us out at the last minute after another sitter cancelled and we couldn’t be more grateful that it worked out that way. She was very communicative, honest, and reliable. She went above and beyond to send us lots of pictures. We felt relieved to leave our pup in her care and she’s now our top choice for a petsitter. Thanks Elena!”

“Jennifer was an absolute life saver in caring for my 2 unique little chiweenies who are not used to other people, let alone Mom being away. They warmed up to her so fast and I came home to 2 very happy and cared for dogs. Jennifer communicates frequently and sends lots of pics which I so appreciate and dealt with some of my diva dogs behaviors like a total pro. I am so grateful.”

“Aarti was amazing! Very knowledgeable and receptive. With her background in vet med, this eased my worries. She was attentive and loving to our two crazy, high energy, wack job Cattle Dogs. She made effort to expend energy safely going out at times when the NM heat wasn't too unbearable for them. She expressed love and concern for our dog's safety and happiness. She had an amazing idea to come to our home when we were getting ready to leave to assist our babies in their transition period. She sent cute pictures regularly and was phenomenal with her communication. I'm typically a super anxious worrywart but I found myself relaxing and enjoying my vacation because she put my mind at such ease. I will be booking her anytime we leave town! She's one in a million!”

“Becca has watched my old dog in my home (house sitting) a few times and is always friendly, reliable, communicative, and respectful of my home. My dog has a lot of needs at her age, and Becca takes such excellent care of her. I highly recommend Becca!!”
“Olivia was GREAT! She came in for the long weekend, stayed with our 14 years, 8-month-old mini–Australian Shepherd, Taylor, and watched over our property while we were gone. So cool to have a house and pet sitter like Olivia. I was able to watch Olivia and Taylor walking and playing in the water through my ring cameras and Taylor was obviously having a good time! Being a very senior dog, I worried that Taylor would not warm up to someone new taking over. But I shouldn't have worried at all because very quickly, Taylor had Olivia trained to do things his way, on his schedule! :) They became buddies right away. Our house was safely watched over as well as Taylor and that's exactly what I hoped for. I will definitely reach out to Olivia if I ever need someone again, and I will recommend her to all my friends and neighbors. Thanks, Olivia!!”

“My dogs love Paulina. Not only that, she invested so much time and energy with them. She went far above what I expected. She updated me regularly and sent photos while I was gone. By far the best experience I've had with a long term sitter. I will be booking her services again.”

We’ve worked with Rita for a few years now. She is amazing with all of our three animals who are at different ages with various personalities. She watched them recently, took the dogs on walks, made sure they got play time, and went above and beyond in several ways. She always gives our cat lots of attention too and her medication that she takes twice a day. Rita is the best!

Erin did an excellent job caring for my 3 cats. When I got home, they seemed relaxed and calm, so I knew they were happy with her, too. One of my cats that doesn't come out to meet visitors was on the sofa next to her, letting her pet him. She sent me photos and gave me updates. Her communication is fantastic. I'm so grateful I found Erin to look after my cats and that she's reliable and trustworthy. She's a gem.

My dogs love Paulina. Not only that, she invested so much time and energy with them. She went far above what I expected. She updated me regularly and sent photos while I was gone. By far the best experience I've had with a long term sitter. I will be booking her services again.

Hutch was absolutely fantastic to work with! She spent a long weekend house sitting and watching our dog, Luna, while we were out on vacation. Not only did Luna seem to have a great time with her, but Hutch took fantastic care and watch of our home—even dealing with some unexpected house issues that came up while we were away. We highly recommend working with Hutch as your pet and house sitter!

Cindi took marvelous care of Trixie, my 2 1/2 year-old cavalier! Trixie was very relaxed when I came home and I really appreciated all the great photographs and keeping in touch with me as I asked! I would definitely have Cindi care for my dogs going forward! The house was immaculate. Wholeheartedly recommend!

Kristen was fantastic with watching our dog for a few days at our home. She is a true professional with attention to detail. She updated us regularly and sent pictures. She is kind, caring, and trustworthy. Great with our dog and followed his routine/instructions to a tee!

Ava did a wonderful job caring for our dog and cat. She spent plenty of quality time with them while staying in our home, and even left the place cleaner than when she arrived. She is an excellent communicator and made sure to send us pictures and updates, which was a huge comfort while we were out of town. 10/10 would recommend! Thank you Ava!
