“Kristine was very responsible taking care of our dog and home while we were gone for 4 days. In fact, more than we expected. We will definitely want her to take of Boots again when we need a dog sitter.”
“Our 130# Newfoundland and cat were well taken care of. Communication was great, even using a different app since we were in Europe. Would not hesitate to use Charlotte again, she cared for our animals like they were hers.”
About: I am a husky lover and owner who has spent most of my life taking care of dogs! I am 30 years old and have grown up taking care of beagles as well as pet sitting for family members and neighbors. Now, I currently have two huskies, ages 3 and 1. I enjoy long walks with my pups and lots of play time! On the weekends, I enjoy taking my dogs on long hikes, taking them to the dog park for some play time and even runs on the beach. My huskies are friendly with dogs their size and love making new friends. They also have spent time around cats and although they avoid playing, they do love other furry friends. My energetic attitude and love for animals makes me the best match for the job.
“Haley did a fantastic job looking after our dog and house while we were away for a week. She sent lots of pictures, daily updates, and took our pup to the park multiple times. Will definitely look forward to using Haley again for house/pet sitting!”
“We were on vacation with our high-anxiety pup and Carissa was happy to help us out - she's a great communicator and we appreciate her willingness to come up to our Airbnb in the mountains!”
“Was gone for about 3 days. Jessica was able to provide me with a morning and afternoon report on how my pets were doing and sent me plenty of pictures. I was so grateful and was able to enjoy my trip knowing that they were in good hands. My 2 cats and pup were so comfortable with her. Definitely recommend and will rebook again!”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, and got into dog training 2 years ago. I assisted a dog training company with the dogs they would board and care for, and assisted with multiple training outings. I also raised and trained my own service animal. I’m currently working part time, and will focus solely on providing care for your pet and home. They are my number one priority and love to do things with them. I will take them on long walks and do training with them to get their brain going. I’ll make sure their meals are extra tasty and made with love.
“Megan is an absolute treasure!! And that’s with a T not a P. Although she was also a pleasure to work with she is one of the most capable, friendly, caring, conscientious, pet sitters I have ever met. I will definitely use her again. I say treasure because she’s the sitter I would want again and again and again. 10/10 🥰🥰”
“She was amazing! Came on time, follow all the instructions with my little puppy. Send me the updates and photos of Poet. Puppy was happy and safe when I came back home. Her prices are very affordable. You can feel that she loves the animals. Highly recommend Christopher!”
About: I have been a pet owner for as long as I can remember. I have had both dogs and cats and love them both equally. I have cared for pets for both family members and friends. I've watched all types of animals with many different personalities. On top of pet sitting, I have fostered multiple litters of kittens, which has taught me patience and attentiveness. In my free time, I also enjoy volunteering at a local rescue to help walk dogs. I understand the hard work, attention and love that goes into managing any kind of animal, and I am willing to do just about anything to make sure that your pet feels loved and safe. I am a grad student who only has in person classes on Tuesday typically 8am - 4pm, which makes me very flexible for the rest of the week. I am very conscious about safety when it comes to walk, and/or letting dogs out in a fenced in area. I am sure to read any instructions before hand to learn about any issues individual pet needs.
“Jennifer was a doll! She was so kind and caring. She even sent pics of our babies while we were on vacation and kept in touch with us. We can’t wait to call on her for next time!”
About: My family has had 2 dogs since I was 10 and two cats since I was 14 which I took part in caring for. Four years ago I also got a cat of my own! I have been fortunate enough to also care for pets from different friends and families while they’ve been away! So, I have a lot of experience feeding, playing, cleaning up after and caring for cats and dogs of all different breeds! I am currently taking some time off of work before starting PA school over the summer. So I have a pretty open schedule to figure out what works best for you and your furry friends! I am great at following any directions from you to ensure that your pet is safe with me! You let me know what standards and precautions you follow and prefer and I will always abide by them!

If you are looking for a pet sitter who will treat your fur baby like absolute royalty, look no further! We needed someone last-minute to watch our dog for an entire week, and she completely saved the day by stepping in with such short notice. From the moment we left, we were at total ease. She sent constant updates and a ton of amazing pictures throughout the week, which we absolutely loved. It was so reassuring to see our pup so happy, relaxed, and well-cared-for while we were away. She is professional, incredibly dependable, and clearly has a huge heart for animals. We are so incredibly grateful for her help and will absolutely be booking her again in the future. Highly, highly recommend!
Haley house sat for me for a full a week. I have a little dog, Jake, who is almost 15, and a 4 year old hound mix, Maui, who was a rescue. As soon as she walked in my house my dogs went right to her and there was an immediate connection. The dogs had a great week with Haley, and my house looked great when I returned. She sent me updates and pictures frequently, and my dogs loved her. I would definitely rebook with Haley.
Charlotte came for the day to get to know Finn, our little dog, before coming to stay over in a few weeks time. We left for the day and when we returned Finn was sitting next to her on the sofa looking content and happy:) Charlotte is a calm and friendly person who understands pups very well. :)
Could not be more pleased with the compassionate care our dogs received while we were out of the country on vacation! I am the animal worrier of the family and felt very much at ease while away. We returned to a home of happy puppies! Thank you so very much for providing top notch care!
Kathy G was awesome with our pups while we were gone. She sent updates, pictures and more every day which really kept us from worrying about our fur babies! She also left us a clean house and kept up on the dog items that needed washing. We will definitely call Kathy G again!
What an absolute Doll Tearia is… she did a fantastic job with our babies today… she put the thunder hood and thunder shirt on one of my Goldens during the storm. She was on time and the house was perfect when we got home. She left a lovely note and we will definitely be calling her in the future! Top notch!
