“It is clear that Georgia loves animals. Our dog was well cared for, the house was spotless on our return, and she kept in touch throughout our trip. Would have back in a heartbeat!!”
“Danielle was absolutely amazing! We will continue to ask her to look after our pups for our future trips. She provided us with updates and didn’t mind at all that we had a lot of specific requests regarding the pups food etc. she took perfect care of them and kept them company so we didn’t have to worry at all about them while we were gone.”
“Abby took wonderful care of our senior cat! I was nervous about leaving him as he has advanced CKD and was worried our absence would stress him out and potentially lead to a crash. Abby was extremely communicative and responsive. The regular videos and pics she sent assured me my cat was doing great while we were gone! Her love of animals shines through in her communication. She left our house spotless. We would happily book Abby again!”
“Anna was amazing. I got updates on the morning and evening with pictures of the furkids. She was amazing with my girls. Took them on long walks and gave them tons of attention. The girls are looking forward to their next stay with Anna”
About: Animals are children to me. Grew up with many dogs/cats & birds! Offer great at home visits to exercise, play & feed your pets! Strong, driven individual that can handle multiple large dogs at a time. Also have trained many puppies through my youth and adult life, so can handle the little ones too! Respectful to clients and pets alike, understanding the value and security of your home and neighborhood. Will always walk dogs until they poop and pee; will pet and play with them during walks and visits. Please do not hesitate to ask questions or request supplemental services. You will not regret picking me as your animals caretaker!! I am working part time with a flexible schedule, so boarding your dog takes priority. I wake up early each morning and retire around 9p I have many trails in the back of our property, with hills and fields to run in. Dogs are given all the love I can muster in the home and out on walks or hikes! Very safe environment for your dog
About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my hands-on experience, reliability, and genuine love for animals. I’ve cared for both energetic puppies and older pets who need a slower pace and extra patience. I’m great at picking up on individual needs—whether that’s sticking to a strict feeding schedule, handling clean-up routines, or giving pets the one-on-one attention they deserve. I am free most weekdays after 3pm and open on weekends. I can guarantee you my undivided attention to your pets. I will make sure they are taken care of wonderfully. In my home, pets enjoy a safe, clean, and calm space with plenty of love and attention. I follow their routines carefully to keep things familiar and stress-free. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect the space, follow all instructions, and ensure their pet feels secure and cared for. Clear communication and gentle, attentive care help build trust every step of the way.
About: I have been the go-to pet care taker around the neighborhood forever! I am more than willing to do house sitting, as I feel like the animals are more comfortable that way and I have cats at the house. I work short 4 hour shifts 2 days during the week and then 6 hour shifts on the weekends, so I have plenty of time during the week!! I do not have a fenced in yard but I live in a quiet neighborhood with more than enough space to take a walk. I also have a pretty decently sized backyard!
About: I had a dog (pitbull mix) that passed at 14 years old last year and I often took care of my aunt’s dog (redhound mix) that lived until she was 16, so I can handle senior care for dogs. I have lived with cats in the past and have experience cat sitting. I have a flexible schedule in the summertime and have a job outdoors that I can take dogs to, though they would just have to get along with other dogs if I bring them to work. My home is just as welcome to pets as it is to humans. I have a large shared (unfenced) yard space and love taking dogs on (leashed!) walks around my neighborhood and surrounding mountains/natural areas. I have cleared litter boxes before.
“Lillian is marvelous. our kitty came to us during COVID isolation, so has not had the chance to meet many folks. Lillian's kind patience melted through his shyness and we were able to enjoy our time away without worry.”
“Brooke was a great sitter for our fur baby! She and Dude bonded at their first meeting. We received pictures and an update daily while we were gone. We would definitely have Brooke stay with Dude again.”
“Ariel was amazing! Great communication, flexible to our needs and the needs of our pets, and left our place looking sparkly clean! We highly recommend booking with Ariel and will certainly use her services again in the future!”
“Liz is amazing! My husband and I have never left our dogs with anyone but family so we were a bit nervous but she’s very communicative and treasuring. She also helped with our ducks which was of great help. So happy to have found someone in the neighborhood. Will definitely rebook in the future.”
“I am over the moon happy with the care that Colby provided for Oscar and Milo! I returned home to 2 very happy, calm dogs. Colby sent frequent updates, with pictures and took them out for very long walks. She is a great communicator and I knew the minute I met her that my dogs and my home would be in good hands. I highly recommend Colby!”
“Shelby was a wonderful sitter for Juniper. She made herself available on very short notice and took great care of Juniper who is recovering from surgery. She sent detailed updates and was lovely to communicate with. We would be happy to book with her again!”

“I am so grateful Elijah was able to care for our dog Louie while my husband and I were out of town for the weekend. He was great at keeping us updated on how things were going, touching base several times a day and sending photos. When we arrived home, Louie seemed calm and relaxed. Our home was left neat and tidy. We look forward to working with Elijah again knowing that we can be at ease leaving Louie in his care.”

Andrew C.
“Andrew has done a wonderful job with my dog Tunechi. He always takes him out for long walks to the park and knows he doesn't like to play in the dog run. He always gives Tunechi treats when appropriate and sends me cute photos of him all tuckered out post-walk. He is always punctual and doesn't skimp out on time in poor weather. I cannot recommend Andrew more!”

Carlyan V.
“I had the pleasure of having Carlyan care for my cat, Toby, while I was away, and I couldn’t be more grateful for her help. Toby can be a bit shy and particular, but Carlyan was incredibly gentle and caring with him from the start. She took the time to make sure he felt safe, comfortable, and loved, and I could tell he was in good hands throughout the entire time I was gone. Carlyan communicated with me regularly, kept me updated, and followed all of Toby’s care instructions perfectly. Her calm and attentive nature made all the difference. I would confidently recommend her pet sitting services to anyone looking for a responsible, kind, and reliable caregiver. I’ll absolutely be calling on her again! – Jess R.”
Kadyona S.
“Kadyona is an excellent pet sitter! She’s helped me on more than one occasion with my two dogs and two cats. She was thorough, kept our schedule with feedings and walkings, and the animals really loved her! She was also great about making sure they each received their supplements too! She’s kind, prompt, professional, and I’d recommend her to anyone!”

Laurie P.
“There are three things that set Laurie apart from other dog sitters: 1. She is reliably caring and understanding with our pet. She gets our dog, and loves her quirks. 2. Laurie is totally dependable. She trekked through 12’’ of snow up a steep driveway to visit our pet on a cold, winter morning. 3. Laurie is proactive about resolving problems whether they are behavioral, medical or something else. If your pet won’t take her medicine, she can handle it. If your pet needs some extra TLC, she can handle it. Laurie also walks our dog, sits with her and gives her much-needed attention and checks in with texts, photos and videos. I highly recommend her.”
Elijah H.

He was great at keeping us updated on how things were going, touching base several times a day and sending photos. When we arrived home, Louie seemed calm and relaxed.
