“Megan was an excellent sitter when she stayed with our dog Bentley last week. We had scheduled to have her come watch him for our planned baby induction last Friday, but our baby decided he wanted to come early and Megan was kind enough to come stay with him a day early. She sent tons of photos and updated us while she was at our house. We look forward to having her watch Bentley again next time we need her.”

“We cannot recommend Ashley enough! Prior to the house sitting stay, Ashley came to meet us and our pup. Instantly, she made our shy pup feel comfortable. She is a great communicator and updated us throughout our vacation, which put us at ease. We highly recommend booking Ashley to take care of your animals!”

“Candace took great care of our puppy while we were out to dinner! She was reliable, communicative, and made us feel completely at ease. Josh was happy and well cared for when we got home. We'd definitely book with her again!”


“Caitlin was great. She kept me up to date with Moxie and leaves the house in great condition, even washing the sheets. I would highly recommend her. I am already booking her for another visit.”

About: I’ve had animals for my entire life including cats, dogs, fish, hamster and guinea pigs. I have taken care of many other animals and love being around them. I have volunteered at animal shelters since middle school and am currently walking shelter dogs. I love animals and want to fit them into any free time I have. I care for my animals everyday and want to care for others as well! I treat every animal and home with the upmost of respect. I want to treat every animal the way I would want mine treated. I love every animal so when they are in my care they are in great care.
“Victoria is the absolute best. She spent the day with my pup Joey and gave him lots of love and cuddles. He is super relaxed with her and I will 100% be a repeat customer. ❤️”

“We were very happy with Lee! While we were away for the weekend, Lee stayed at our home watching our dog, Roxy. We received pictures and updates daily. When we returned, everything looked great! We appreciate Lee taking good care of Roxy and would have Lee dog sit again.”

“Meagan helped us out when we had to travel out of town for three days. She stayed with our 12 week old puppy at our apartment. She was great with little Kara. She kept us posted, administered meds and took very good care of our pup.”

“Eli is amazing! My dogs instantly loved him, which always makes it so much easier to leave your four legged loved ones with someone you don't know. This was our first time using Eli, and there is no question that we will have him back. I loved the updates, he was super easy going and my dogs were happy as could be.”

“My dogs love Haley! I have one easy angel pup and another not so easy grumpy pup, and Haley quickly won them both over. She has a great presence that commands respect which is important for our pup who needs boundaries during introductions. She provided us with updates and photos while we were gone and we will absolutely have her help us again!!”


“Sidney did a wonderful job sitting for us and our 3 small dogs for 4 nights. We hope she is available every time we need a pet sitter. She provided photos every day and there were no issues the entire time. Thanks again Sydney!”


“Tara watched our rambunctious dog Wes for four nights at our home and we couldn’t be happier with the care she gave him. She bonded instantly with him (which says quite a lot actually for our dog), was in touch every day with updates, and improvised on food when some of his food ran out. TRa also discovered a broken nail and was prepared to take time off from work to take Wes to the vet, although we elected to wait and see. She was professional and caring, everything you could ask for in a pet sitter. I would recommend her again in a heartbeat!”
“Julie is an excellent sitter and she went above and beyond for us while watching our 1yr old chocolate lab puppy and house when we were on vacation. She made it really easy for us and had excellent communication the whole time, sending us updates while we were away to let us know our fur baby was OK. Julie was flexible to our needs and requests and really stepped up to help us and did an amazing job all around. When we came home, our house was very clean and our dog was very happy! All around great experience and I would highly recommend Julie and would not hesitate to book her again. Thank you SO much Julie you are the best and we really appreciate you!”

“Marlena was awesome to work with and we are so glad we found her! She was super communicative and sent lots of updates and photos of our two babies. Her care offered so much peace of mind while we traveled. Highly recommend trusting your fur family with her!”

“Tyler was so amazing with our dog Boone!! We felt so comfortable having Tyler in our home for the weekend, he took really good care of the house and our pup! Can’t wait to have him watch our dog again!”
“I can’t recommend Heather highly enough. She was so sweet with our dogs and very thorough during our initial meeting. While we were out of town, she stayed at our house and went above and beyond caring for babies and our space- she vacuumed at the end of her stay and even shoveled our deck, both without being asked. Each day we were gone, Heather sent us multiple photos and updates. We would book with her again in a heartbeat!”


About: My husband and I understand how difficult it can be to find trustworthy, high-quality pet care for a beloved family member. Having cared for our own dogs through every stage of life—including senior years and vision loss—we know that every dog has unique needs and deserves patience, compassion, and individualized attention. After losing our two cherished pups, we're not quite ready to welcome another dog of our own, but we deeply miss the joy and companionship that dogs bring. That's why we open our home to a limited number of pets and provide the kind of care we would want for our own family members. Because I work from home, your dog will receive plenty of attention, companionship, supervision, and affection throughout the day. We have no children and no resident pets, creating a calm, low-stress environment. We also only care for one family's dog at a time, ensuring your pet receives truly personalized care. Our goal is simple: to provide a safe, loving home where your dog feels comfortable, secure, and treated like family while you're away. I work from home full-time in a quiet home with no children or pets, providing constant supervision, companionship, personalized care, and plenty of attention. I provide a safe, loving home where dogs receive patience, affection, one-on-one attention, and gentle care tailored to their unique needs and personality.
