“Rachael stayed with our 2 girls for a week at our house. They loved her & we loved that they were in such great hands! While we were gone, we received numerous updates and pictures each day. We returned to an immaculate house! Very professional, Highly recommended!”


“Katelyn was wonderful! We hired her to housesit & stay with our dog while we were gone for 2 days. She is a sweet person, clearly loves dogs & was easy to make plans with. She and our dog were fast friends. She sent me regular updates on how he was doing w/ pics & responded quickly when I missed my pup & needed a check in. When we got back home, other than a very well-cared for & happy dog, you couldn't even tell she had been there. Everything was how we left it. Would hire her again in a heartbeat. Thanks Katelyn!”


“We had used Faith once before for an overnight. This time we were lucky enough to get her for an entire week while we were on vacation. We were over the moon knowing we didn’t have to worry about our babies. Faith always goes above and beyond sending pictures and videos and updates, giving our 3 rascals all the love, playing with them, and general daily care. She is worth her weight in gold! :)”


About: I've had animals my whole life. I have house sat my friends and family's pets for years while they go on vacation. In my spare time I work with the animals at the Animal Refuge League both dogs and cats. They have provided different types of training for both cat and canine care. I work from home so I am able to house sit and still continue working. This allows me to be with youe pets as often as possible during your time away. I do not care for pets in my home since I have a cat and a dog myself. (They get watched by my roommate while I'm away)

“Kaden took wonderful care of our dogs and our home. The dogs were happy At the meet and greet meeting Kaden asked questions that would help him to best care for our pups and be respectful of our home. We will definitely ask him to care for them again!”


“It's such a relief to find quality, reliable pet care for my sweet, aging golden-doodle. Ashley spent 5 days taking care of my dog and my home. She sent photos & videos, communicated with daily updates and was attuned to his physical limitations. It's clear that Ashley loves animals and she bonds easily with them. The added bonus was how well she took care of my home! It was spotless when I returned, sheets, neatly folded, and everything in its place. Highly recommend!”


“Dawn was great!! My pets were obviously very well cared for :) My pup has some special needs and she was on top of it and sent plenty of updates and pics to ease my mind as this was the first time we’ve left our dog with anyone since she had her amputation back in September. I didn’t worry about a thing and was able to enjoy a long weekend away knowing my pup was well attended to. Will definitely use Dawn again :)”


“Once again, Ashley did a great job. It's really comforting to know that we can leave our dog Pearl with a trusted "friend". She is always so happy to see Ashley. Thanks again Ashley!”


“We couldn’t be more grateful for the amazing care Trie provided for our 13-year-old Maltipoo. He has a tough time with separation anxiety and often struggles with eating when we're away, but Trie was absolutely incredible with him. She stayed by his side, took him on several walks a day, and knew exactly how to encourage him to eat. Trie sent us frequent updates and lots of photos, which gave us so much peace of mind. For the first time, we were able to truly relax on vacation knowing our fur baby was in such loving hands. She is incredibly sweet, gentle, kind, and attentive — exactly the kind of person you’d hope to find to care for your pet. We’ll definitely be booking with her again for any future travel!”


“We have used Elisa's services multiple times. She can be counted on to be on time and has an amazing repour with our dog. Multiple times our dog has had medical issues and she was fantastic, and has frequent communications with us. I would recommend her for any situation.”


“Allie was wonderful. Our 2 golden retrievers were so well taken care of-I don’t think they wanted her to leave! Allie communicated well, followed our care instructions, and kept our place nice and tidy. We will absolutely reach out to Allie in the future!”


“Took wonderful care of my dog and kept me updated on how things were going and sent pictures. Very responsive and responsible. Definitely would recommend Kimberly and will use her again!”

About: Iv had pets my whole life and have pet sat for friends and family many times in the past.

I am not currently working so I have all the extra time in the world, My children are at school for 8 hours of the day so if your pet(s) prefer no kids the morning/afternoon would be best for you, they’re older and calm kids who love pets so if your pet is ok with kids they’ll get along great.
