About: I have experience caring for dogs through both long-term and everyday responsibilities, including helping raise my aunt’s dog from puppyhood and regularly caring for my boyfriend’s dog. My responsibilities have included walking, feeding, playtime, maintaining routines, and providing companionship to help pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while their owners are away. What sets me apart from other sitters is the level of care and attention I give to each pet individually. I understand that being away from their owner can be stressful for some animals, so I focus on creating a calm, reassuring, and positive environment where they feel secure and loved. My experience caring for puppies has also taught me patience, consistency, and the importance of paying close attention to behavior, routines, and energy levels. I treat every pet with the same care, compassion, and responsibility I would want for my own animals. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I already spend a lot of time caring for my own cats. I make sure they’re fed, comfortable, and getting plenty of attention and playtime throughout the day. I even take my cat on walks, so I’m very attentive to both physical activity and emotional enrichment. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, so being patient, observant, and consistent with their routines comes very naturally to me. II believe pets communicate their needs through their behavior and body language, so I always pay close attention to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and understood. I respect each pet’s boundaries while also giving them plenty of attention, playtime, and care. In both my home and a client’s home, I focus on keeping pets comfortable, maintaining their routine, and making sure they don’t feel lonely or stressed while their owner is away.
“Sarah has house sit/dog sit for us twice now and is absolutely amazing! She keeps us updated, sends pics, and makes sure the house is just as clean as we left it! Plus our fur babies loooovvveee her! We highly recommend hiring her! Thanks again Sarah!!!!”
“Celeste was an absolutely wonderful dog sitter. She was communicative, thoughtful, and consistently kept me updated, which gave me so much peace of mind while I was away. It was clear she genuinely cared about my dog, and seeing how happy and comfortable my dog was in her presence meant everything to me. I could tell my dog felt safe, loved, and well cared for the entire time. I would absolutely trust Celeste again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and caring sitter.”
“Michelle did an incredible job house and pet sitting our dog and cat. She communicated well, sent delightful photos and updates, and even handled an unusual house issue safely and with no stress on our end. We can't wait to book with her again!”
“I can’t say enough nice things about Jordan. She jumped in at the very last minute and helped me with my 3 cats when my previous pet sitter had a last minute emergency. She was loving and attentive to my home as well as my cats!! Thank you so much!”

“Jacob is amazing and extremely mindful of our dogs wellbeing and the upkeep of the house. We love when he comes to sit and have peace of mind that everything is taken care of! Thanks 🫶”
“Miranda was awesome. She did a great job taking care of our chaotic pups. And she left our apartment is great shape. She was easy to communicate with, and totally willing to do whatever the pups needed. Definitely recommend 10/10.”
“Noel was kind, quick to respond, polite, respectful, and the perfect fit to watch our pup Yeti. She took great care of him and our home while we were gone! Definitely gave us peace of mind.”
“Erica was absolutely amazing! This was my first time using a house sitter for my two dogs, Pepper and Merlin, and she made the entire experience incredibly smooth and pleasant. From the very beginning, she was extremely responsive and professional. We had an initial meet and greet, and then she even came back a day or two before the booking just to reacquaint herself with the dogs—which really put me at ease. She followed all of my instructions to a T, she was prompt, and kept me consistently updated with messages and adorable pictures. I could tell my dogs really bonded with her. Honestly, when I got back home, I felt like they were looking around for *her* instead of me—which is probably the best sign of all! The house was left just as I had left it, and I truly appreciated the level of care and respect she showed both to my pets and my home. I've already shared her info with a few friends who also struggle with the high cost of boarding, the risks, or even the guilt of leaving senior dogs in unfamiliar places. This experience was ideal because my pups got to stay in their own environment, which really reduced their stress and anxiety. In addition, I didn't have to worry about them being around other dogs which could lead to unexpected injuries or even sickness. I highly recommend Erica and will definitely be booking with her again for any future sitting or drop-in visits needed!”
“Loving, conscientious pet- and house sitter! Janet is a great communicator, too. How wonderful to be able to travel and know that our sweetie is in good hands. We will definitely call on Janet again in the Hope that she can sit for us. The best!”
“Le’Yana was amazing ! My first time using the app to book someone to watch my dog and I don’t regret it ! Very sweet women , definitely would be booking her again . Thank you”
“Dawn was great with our 2 rambunctious doodles. She sent pics and updates regularly. Took them for numerous walks including a 5 mile walk at Pocahontas State Park! She also took great care of our house. We would definitely use her again!”

This was our first time using Jennifer and she did a great job with Bogart. He took to her right away and she sent lots of pictures which showed he was obviously very comfortable with her. She was on time and very easy to communicate with and left the house neat and tidy. Would definitely recommend.!
Brenda is a literal angel on earth. I know we will never find someone else even remotely close to how amazing she is to house sit and watch our dogs for us. If you book with Brenda, you will be giving your pets and yourself a luxury service. Our two dogs are 1.5yrs and 9mos and Old English Bulldogs. They are clever, stubborn, sweet, smart and all the things. I’m home every day with them between night shifts and am well aware of the challenges, constant upkeep, entertaining them, etc., I left instructions regarding what a normal day looks like at our home for Brenda and she blew my husband and I out of the water as far as dog parenting goes! She did enrichment activities, lots of exercise, training, critical thinking skills, and was with them the entire time we were gone minus some short errands. We’ve never left our dogs before and had to make a somewhat last minute, very stressful trip to visit family. I was so anxious and Brenda’s presence, her updates, and great conversations took the anxiety away the very first day we were gone. It was the best feeling! I knew we didn’t have to worry about anything at all other than spending time with my family. Coming home, excited to see our dogs, we walked into a house that appeared as if a cleaning service came, fresh cookies made on the counter for us, and two very relaxed, well behaved, sleepy dogs who obviously had a long day of fun! All we had to do was unpack and relax with our babies!!! I cannot recommend Brenda enough!!!! We are hoping she wants to come back. She did 50000% more than we ever would’ve asked of someone. And if we were rich, I would offer her a full time position in our lives as our dog nanny, trainer, bestie for the dogs and housekeeper!!! Thank you so, so, so much!!!! <3
We have had Kim care for our pets the few times we have needed it for the past year and a half. When scheduling our first long vacation in many years, I made sure Kim was available before doing any planning. I don’t think we’d be comfortable leaving our house and kitties without her! Our cats love her, and my husband and I feel secure knowing everything is in Kim’s hands. She is so thoughtful, thorough, and excellent with communication. We couldn’t ask for a better pet/house sitter!!
Bee was taking care of our pup for a week in our place and we have only nice things to say. She felt comfortable giving Kaan his daily medicine and updated us with cute pictures of them snuggling and walking. We knew our pup was in great hands and she left our place spotless as well. We highly recommend Bee and are so happy that we found her. Thank you 🙏🏻
Joy was amazing!! She stayed with our dog for 7 days. Our dog can be a lot to handle and she did it perfectly. I received an update and cute photo each day. She was very tidy, organized, and most of all- trustworthy! The list of compliments to give her is endless. Forrest is a very active dog with some anxiety. He usually doesn’t do well on a leash, but Joy was able to walk him with some slack on the leash. That’s a huge milestone for our dog. I know he loved every minute of it. While Forrest was very excited to see me, he kept checking to see if Joy was coming back. He definitely misses her. Joy will always be the first person I reach out to when we need someone to take care of Forrest!
