“Asia is a wonderful sitter. She kept Cooper for an extended period for me and was very flexible with scheduling. She has extensive experience with dogs and can read cues and knows how to give them space if needed, especially for my anxious pup. I came home to a clean house and living plants too :) I will definitely be rebooking with Asia when I can in the future. Thank you so much!”
“Julia was great! She sent pictures of our animals as an update and was a huge help when we needed someone pretty last minute to watch our house.”
“Lawrence took great care of our dog and house while we were away— would definitely recommend him! Our dog is often anxious around new people but she liked him pretty much immediately.”
“laryn took great care of my dog and my home while I was out of town. I had never had someone I did not know stay at my place while I wasn’t there, and I felt very comfortable. my dog seemed happy and cared for while I was gone, and she was communicative with updates. would definitely recommend her and would have her watch my dog again!”
“I was super hesitant to have a sitter in house for my pup because I was scared of my house being a wreck when I came back. Thankfully, this fear did not come true with Mary as a sitter. They were clean and kept my apartment how I left it… if not better. They sent me quite a few update pictures of my pup, and just regular updates in general. They also made sure my pup was okay with plenty of water in the time it was going to take me to get home after they left. Your pup will be in good hands with Mary!”
“Lark stayed for a week at our home and was so caring of our furry baby Kevin. Kevin's not always predictable and they made good friends with loving belly rubs, etc. She shared pictured throughout the week. We will definitely be calling her back to see if she can stay again when we plan our next trip! Thank you so very much!”
About: I have worked with animals since I was in middle school. I enjoy being around animals and I want the best for them. I am certified and very good at what I do. I am currently working part time and also homeschooling my children so I will have ample time to care for your companion. I am available everyday after 3pm but sometimes I have morning's open as well. Communication is key with me so we can work something out so everyone is happy. I have learned fear free tactics that can help with introductions and getting comfortable. I can easily crate if needed and will calm down any stressful environment.
About: I’m not just another sitter who shows up and leaves. I genuinely care for pets as if they were my own. What makes me different is the attention to detail and the patience I bring to every walk, visit, or overnight stay. I take the time to understand each pet’s personality, needs, and routine so they feel safe and loved, not just “looked after.” While others may treat this as just a side job, I see it as a responsibility and a privilege. Your pet deserves someone dependable, caring, and trustworthy and that’s exactly what I offer. I’m currently not working, so I’m available anytime any day, if you need somebody that’s really going to take time with your pet, that’s me!! I provide pet care directly in the client’s home so pets can stay comfortable in their familiar environment. I always follow their usual routine feeding, walking, playtime, and any special instructions so they feel safe, loved, and stress-free while their owner is away.
“So Diane is absolutely the best dog sitter we have ever had. Our elderly dog (Puddles) ended up having some medical issues while Diane was taking care of her, and Diane did an outstanding job taking care of our Puddles during this time. Puddles is doing fine and we truly appreciate Diane keeping Puddles. We highly recommend Diane taking care of your pets. She is someone you can trust! Thanks again.”
“Catelyn is the best sitter. She watched my dog, Louie, over the weekend, and it was clear from the start that he was in the best hands. Louie can be a bit particular, but Catelyn took the time to get to know him, and he absolutely adored her. She kept me updated with photos and messages, which really put my mind at ease. I could tell Louie was not only well cared for, but genuinely happy while I was away.”
“Shayelle took fantastic care of Stella (and our house)! She checked in with concerns and sent pics to let us know how they were doing. She put our minds at ease while we were out of town. Would absolutely recommend.”
About: I had 3 cats all throughout my life, and have house sat for dogs during college! I love caring for all animals, and I hope that we can connect! I can do all days during the week that I'm not working my full time job - I mainly work 3 days a week for 12 hours each day. I maintain a safe environment through learning each pet's needs, as well as making sure that if they're on a schedule that they're on top of that said schedule.
“Mikayla did a great job looking after my babies and communicating! She sent plenty of pictures and was even kind enough to wash the sheets for the room she stayed in. I really appreciate her services and will definitely use her for future pet care needs!”
About: I always take care of my sisters dogs as well as friends dogs and I love it, it’s so much fun! I’m really good with animals. I have a cat of my own so I take care of her everyday but I go to school but have online classes so I have plenty of time to watch your pet. Dogs like more attention than cats so with my cat I give her space but with dogs give them more attention! I always am tentative to what varies to each animal
