“Kylie did a great job! The boys were well taken of care of and communication was great. Can’t thank her enough for helping us on short notice.”
“Sarah has been a great addition to our home every time she watches our pup. We’ve used her many times, and trust her every time. She communicates great and treats our dog like her own. He is always happy when we get home!! Thankful for Sarah when she stays with our dog.”
“Emelyn was super great with our two pups! She was easy to get in touch with and the dogs loved her. She left things clean and organized and we will definitely be using her again in the future!”
“Misty was great and Luna was safe and secure, happy and healthy when I arrived home. Finding a dog sitter on Memorial Day seemed like an impossible request so imagine my surprise when she accepted, arrived and did a great job. I highly recommend her!”
“Angelee is the best! She made our first time leaving our dog, Charlie, with a sitter a breeze and she will be our first call for all future pet sitting needs! We came home to a spotless house (with a washed and made guest bed even!), received frequent updates while we were gone, and never once worried about Charlie while he was in her care. She is communicative, prompt, so friendly, and clearly loves animals. Angelee worked to keep Charlie’s routine and environment consistent while we were away. Charlie got lots of walks and playtime. He clearly loved Angelee as he was looking for her in our guest room after we got home! It is such a relief to find someone who you can trust with your pet and your home. Angelee goes above and beyond! Cannot recommend her highly enough!!”
“Hannah did an outstanding job watching my dogs at my home for a couple nights. Her communication and updates throughout her stay were outstanding. She went up and beyond to make sure the house was in better shape than when it was left. My dog’s really enjoyed her. I would definitely recommend Hannah.”
“Mackenna was amazing with my Australian Shepherd while I was on vacation. From the moment they met, he was totally at ease with her, which isn’t always the case with him. She sent me regular updates, which I really appreciated, and communication was super easy the whole time. Knowing he was in such good hands made it so much easier to actually relax and enjoy my trip. You can tell she genuinely cares, and that made all the difference. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter they can truly trust!”
“Joni has been the best for our pup! Our dog loves all of the time spent with Joni. She has always been professional and communicative and has become our go to for watching our dog!!”
“We had another great sitting experience with Addie. I appreciate how well she communicates and the photos that she sends. Dogs were happy and well cared for upon return. Thank you, Addie!”
About: I’ve cared for dogs and cats for many years and have experience pet sitting for multiple families, including drop-in visits and overnight care. I’ve cared for cats regularly over several years, watched dogs of different sizes, ages, and personalities, and genuinely enjoy spending time with animals of all kinds. I also volunteer through Doggy Day Out at the shelter, where I help walk and socialize dogs, and I grew up with a family dog, so caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. I enjoy walks, playtime, cuddles, and making sure pets feel comfortable, safe, and loved while their owners are away. I have experience incorporating caregiving and pet care into my daily routine and enjoy creating consistent schedules for feeding, walks, playtime, potty breaks, and companionship. I am organized, dependable, and make it a priority to ensure pets feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. My schedule allows me to provide regular walks, check-ins, enrichment, and quality time, and I always work to follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible to help them feel at home. I spend a lot of time at home and have a flexible schedule, allowing me to provide plenty of attention, companionship, and consistency throughout the week. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their normal routines as closely as possible to help them feel comfortable and reduce stress. I make sure pets have fresh water, are fed on schedule, and receive plenty of attention, enrichment, playtime, and companionship. I prioritize safety by keeping doors and outdoor areas secure, being attentive during walks and potty breaks, and cleaning litter boxes as needed. I also provide updates and photos so owners feel informed, reassured, and connected while away.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Kylie watched my dogs and stayed at my home for a week, and I truly couldn’t have asked for a better experience. My dogs were so comfortable and content when I returned because she made sure they never felt alone while I was away. She clearly gave them so much love, attention, and care. She also took wonderful care of my home. Everything was clean, organized, and exactly as I left it. During the week, an unexpected water issue came up, and Kylie handled it with grace, professionalism, and excellent communication, seeing it through until everything was resolved. Kylie is dependable, caring, professional, and genuinely goes above and beyond. I am extremely happy with her services and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and loving pet sitter.
We had to leave Smoke for 2 weeks. It was not easy for me, but happily, I found Rhiannon! She took excellent care of Smoke and of the house. She even watered and looked after the gardens. Could not ask for a better sitter. We’ll be booking with her again without hesitation.
Jessica was a wonderful housesitter while I was out of town. She provided updates about her visits, providing times she would be there, as well as pictures of my cat. I really appreciated her fantastic communication and the way she took care of my cat and house! I found her to be honest, thoughtful, and great with my cat!
This was the second time Makenna has housesat for my dog. My girl is always happy and calm when I return home, which has not been the case with other sitters. Makenna is excellent at communicating and sending photos. She makes sure my girl gets lots of play and snuggles. Also, my house is always clean when I return. Poppy and I will definitely be relying on Makenna again!
Lindsay was amazing with the pups. She worked with my flexible schedule and gave the dogs everything they needed. She treated them like they were her own and I did not have to worry once while I was gone. I would highly recommend her and will continue using her in the future!
Eric was great! He took great care of our snuggly beagle and our home. Chester was at ease with Eric and we could tell that he got all the treats and affection to which he is deservedly entitled. We will definitely ask Eric to sit for us again on our next trip.
Maya was a wonderful dog sitter. I would not hesitate to use her again. Maya took the time to meet with me and my puppy prior to the scheduled dog sitting. It was clear immediately that she was loving, caring and an experienced dog sitter. I felt very comfortable leaving my puppy with Maya from the beginning. Maya took very good care of my puppy and played with her. Although my puppy was glad to see me, I could tell she had a really good time with Maya.
