“Lisa is by far our favorite house and pet sitter. She’s a wonderful communicator and really cared about our pets. She cleaned up and left the house in tip top shape as well.”


“We’ve got a long list of all the things we loved and appreciated about Jo during her stay with our fur baby. We truly couldn’t feel luckier that we connected with her! Our Brighton can be a bit of a handful but Jo’s confidence, kindness, knowledge, and the genuine excitement she showed made me KNOW that our girl was in the best of hands. Throughout her stay she provided great “pup-dates” with professional quality photos of what they were up to. She also helped out with some tasks around our house which was not expected but incredibly appreciated. We came home to a clean and tidy home and a very thoughtful thank you note with a super cute Polaroid photo. She thanked us but really we owe her all the thanks!! Would love to have her sit for us again in the future. Thanks, Jo!”


“Autumn was amazing with out 2 English setters- she handled medications wonderfully and gave them so much attention and walks! Our neighbor even commented on how great she was. Look forward to using her again!”


“Shea was absolutely fantastic. Our dog has some health issues, and Shea was very attentive to his medications and our concerns while we were away. We came home to a very happy dog. Our house was spotless. Without asking, Shea washed the bedding and put everything in its place. Her communication was thorough and consistent. Without any hesitation, we would ask Shea to sit for Rocky again! Thank you again for everything, Shea!”


“Ellie stayed to care of our pup when we had to travel out of town for a couple of days. She reached our place on time, and gave us regular updates about our pup and shared pictures. It was our first time leaving our pup overnight with a dog sitter and Ellie did an excellent job taking care of our pup. We highly recommend her as she is very good with dogs and dependable.”


About: I genuinely treat every pet as if they were my own, focusing on their individual needs, routines, and personalities. I'm dependable, attentive, and communicate openly with owners, ensuring peace of mind while they’re away. Whether it's extra playtime, careful attention to health needs, or simply being a calming presence, I go above and beyond to make sure each pet feels safe, loved, and happy. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine I plan my days around feeding times, walks, play sessions, and any special needs a pet may have. Whether it’s early morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening cuddle time, I make sure each pet gets consistent attention, exercise, and care throughout the day. Their well-being is always a top priority in my schedule. In my home, I provide a safe, comfortable, and pet friendly environment where pets can relax, play, and feel at home. I stick closely to their usual routines, offer plenty of attention, playtime, and outdoor walks, and make sure they have a cozy space to rest. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and follow all instructions carefully to keep pets in a familiar, low-stress environment. I focus on maintaining their normal schedule, giving them lots of love and engagement, and keeping owners updated with regular photos and messages.

I’ve house-sat for a wide variety of animals, from classic companions like cats and dogs to more exotic friends like bearded dragons. Need someone detail-oriented? I’ve cared for pets with specific medication schedules, strict diets, and set mealtimes, so I’m more than prepared to follow special routines with care and consistency. From playful puppies who get into everything, to sweet senior dogs who need a helping hand, I’m here for the cleanups, the cuddles, and everything in between! I’m working full-time throughout the summer, but my schedule includes a flexible lunch hour—so I’m happy to check in on your pet if extra care is needed! Your pet’s safety and comfort come first! I treat every animal like my own: gently, patiently, and with total attention to their unique needs and personalities.

“Gabby watched Winston (in-house) while my family was away for spring break. Winston is a high drive vizsla and can be quite a shock to people that aren't use to their relentlessness and lack of recognition of personal space. After meeting Gabby we knew Winston would be in good hands though. Gabby sent us updates (including pictures) and was quick to respond when we check-in. If you need someone to watch your pup, we definitely recommend Gabby!”


About: Have house sit for friends and family and watched their pets. I grew up with a dog since I was 3 and every encounter I’ve had with animals has been nothing but pleasant I am taking classes online right now, but I am available Monday-Friday and weekends if needed! I love pets and they honestly are destressing for me so I’ll be able to take time for your pets! I live in an apartment complex, on the second floor. We have a small patio, but the apartments have a designated dog park area that’s fenced in as well for them to get their zoomies out!

About: I have been around animals since I was born! I currently have a mini goldendoodle and she LOVES other animals and people! I live in a house with plenty of room to run around! I’d love to help take care of your pet whenever you need it! I’m currently working part-time so I will have plenty of time to care for your pets! I can make accommodations and plan ahead of time to make sure everything works out! I have a fenced yard for your pet to run around and play! My dog, Lenni, loves to play and is a great fur friend. On days I take care of your pet, I will make sure to take them outside, play with them, and take them on walks! There is also one other dog and 2 cats. All are very friendly and get along great with other animals!

About: I’ve had dogs my entire life! I got my first dog - a golden retriever - on my golden birthday when I turned 3, and have owned a dog every year since. I truly believe they’re like family! I work from home and go on walks often throughout the day! We’re a huge dog family so it would be a treat to be able to walk with some dogs as well! My daughter also LOVES dogs. I really ensure that I’m thoroughly reading the care instructions. I know that every dog is different, and for safety (and their own comfort) it’s best to stay strict to the instructions.

“Isabelle was fantastic! Met her the first time and whole heartedly trusted her with Benny. I left the country for a week and there were no issues or questions from her while I was away. Good communication and my place was just how I left it. Would recommend if you’re looking for someone you can trust with your loved one and home 🤍”
