“Wendy was by far the best dog sitter we've had! My house looked exactly the way I left it, my doggos were happy and relaxed, and she communicated consistently and proactively throughout the entire process. Would definitely recommend her to anyone and hopefully our pups will be lucky enough to get to have her stay again when we travel! ?”

“Brian was great with my dog! He sent me lots of pictures and updates which put my mind at ease! I was worried about leaving her with a stranger but the pictures of them playing and her chilling out let me enjoy my vacation. Will definitely be calling on Brian again.”

“As always, Alyssa took great care of my dog Jake during my overnight trip to Denver. I received updates on her arrival and departure, as well as some communications in-between and a photo, all of which are always a great comfort while I'm away. I highly recommend Alyssa as a dog and house sitter and appreciate her good work!”

About: I'm a young professional and homeowner with a six-year-old Cocker Spaniel and two cats (I just had to get my anxious boy his own cat). I've had animals my whole life and often find myself gravitating to animals over people. My animals are my family and in my care, yours will be too! I work a full-time job, but my home activities center around the animals. They're cared for morning and evening, and my weekend activities are centered around making sure the animals have adequate care and socialization. They're provided fresh water twice a day, food twice a day, and the dog always gets time outside of the house once I'm home, even in the cold.
“MacKinley did a nice job with our needy cat. She commented with me several times to check in with my preferences. Lucy was happy when we got home. She even left food that my cat likes since she couldn’t use it for her own anymore. Thanks Mackinley!”

About: Hi! I’m Lily, and caring for animals is genuinely one of my favorite things in life. I’ve had pets my whole life and have also worked at a doggy daycare, so I’m very comfortable handling dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I own dogs myself—they’re very docile and love having friends—so I understand how important it is to find someone you fully trust with your pets. I have experience with dogs of all sizes and temperaments, including anxious pups and dogs with special needs. One of my dogs is deaf and responds to sign, so I’m especially patient, attentive, and tuned in to nonverbal communication. Whether your pet needs high-energy playtime, structured walks, or just a calm and comforting presence, I’m happy to meet them where they’re at. Your pet’s safety and happiness are my top priorities. I’ll treat them like they’re my own—lots of love, attention, and updates so you never have to wonder how they’re doing. I’m reliable, communicative, and genuinely excited to meet your pets. I can’t wait to give them the care they deserve! My schedule is flexible and allows me to provide consistent care throughout the day. I currently work full-time, but I’m in the process of transitioning roles, which gives me increasing availability. My partner is home by 2:30 PM every day, and we’re both home in the evenings, so your pet will have plenty of supervision, attention, and company. We make sure pets are never left alone for long periods and always prioritize their comfort and routine. I’m happy to work with your pet’s specific schedule and needs—just let me know what works best for them! Your pet’s safety is my top priority. We have a fully fenced-in backyard with turf, providing a clean and secure space for safe outdoor play and bathroom breaks. Inside, our home is pet-proofed to prevent access to anything unsafe, and we always supervise interactions to ensure a calm and controlled environment. I’m attentive to each dog’s behavior and needs, and I take introductions slowly to make sure everyone feels comfortable. You can trust that your pet will be in a safe, secure, and well-managed environment at all times.
About: 20+ years of personal experience caring for cats and dogs in home environments. Experienced with multi-pet households, senior pet care, kitten/puppy routines, enrichment play, litter box maintenance, feeding schedules, and administering medications. Known for patience, attentiveness, and creating low-stress, comforting environments for pets while owners are away. I am currently in the process of finishing my degree. I have a lot of extra time and I love animals so I figured I would give this a shot. I attend college online so I can travel with my schooling. I provide consistent, attentive care in both settings by following each pet’s routine closely, including feeding, walks, litter care, play, and medication if needed. In my home, I maintain a calm, pet-friendly environment with supervision, safe spaces, enrichment activities, and structured routines that reduce stress and encourage comfort. In a client’s home, I respect their space and routines exactly as instructed, ensuring pets feel secure in their familiar environment while keeping everything clean, organized, and updated. Across both, I focus on reading behavior, providing companionship, and making sure every pet feels safe, cared for, and understood while their owners are away.
