“Amy is truly a dog whisperer! My very barky and unsure husky mix warmed up to her within a few minutes and has been great for all the visits. Our other dog, a little beagle, has been a cuddle machine with her. I would recommend Amy with 10 stars if I could. We are definitely having her back!”


“Paige was a fantastic sit in Rover for my cat Blinker! She left detailed notes with many photos that I looked forward to every morning while I was on vacation :) She also was very helpful to let in my maintenance tech and be kind to him! I will rebook next time!”


“Peter cared for our 3 large dogs with no hesitation! He was a great communicator and very flexible with our schedule. We would definitely trust him to come back any time!”


“Kate was amazing! She did everything I asked her to do with the cats, left great notes, and kept me up to date with any issues. I felt very safe leaving my two kitties with her!”


“Heather took great care of our kitties while we were gone for the weekend. Very communicative, friendly and took on our booking somewhat last minute. We really appreciate your great care. We will request to book with her again. Thank you!!”


“This is my second time booking Anne for a pet sitting. She is so thorough and kind. She really cares about my cats and treats them so well. Her drop ins are very detailed. Definitely will be booking her next time!”


“Amelia was great, very flexible with our schedule and our puppy’s needs! She sent great updates and pictures while we were gone. Nelly was a happy, tired girl when we came back.”


“Andrew was great! I came home to two very happy fur babies. He went above and beyond when caring for them. I would definitely use him again when my family travels!!”


“Kaitlyn was great! She sent daily pictures and updates and we felt very comfortable leaving our two cats at home knowing she was going to be checking in!”


“Shykala did a wonderful job taking care of my cat while I was out of town. She really took the time to bond with him and she provided detailed updates, including lots of photos. I'll definitely book with Shykala again in the future!”


About: A former teacher and current husky owner providing loving, reliable care. Detail-oriented, active, and passionate about treating your pet like family—with structure, exercise, and affection. Pet care fits around my full-time job—I’m available after work on weekdays and fully open on weekends to give your pet the care they deserve. I take my husky on daily walks and make sure she gets plenty of outdoor time—whether we’re playing games, exploring, or just chillin in the fresh air. I’d love to provide the same service for you too.

“Emmerson did a great job with my big Belgian Malinois puppy who can be a lot to handle! He was very tidy and consistently sent updates and was always available to talk to.”


“Anders is fantastic!! I have a disabled, senior dog with a degenerative disease and I was really worried about finding someone with the right experience to check up on him during the day while I’m at work, and Anders has been perfect. He’s very professional, understanding, and clearly compassionate about pets. My dog has a lot of special needs since he’s unable to support himself with his hind legs now, including diapers and needing to be cleaned up between changing to avoid UTIs, and Anders has been great about meeting those needs. It’s a huge relief to me knowing my dog is well looked after while I’m away. There was a tornado warning in the city today and I was really worried about my pets, but luckily it aligned with Anders’ check in and he made sure to message me about moving my dog to the basement for me. Otherwise, I would’ve been freaking out with worry all day. Thanks so much for your help, Anders!”


About: I'm a theatre teacher and dog lover and with school out for the summer, I have some extra time and energy to spend it keeping your furry family member happy, safe, and loved while you're away! As an educator, I bring patience, attentiveness, and a strong sense of responsibility to pet care. Whether it’s energetic walks, relaxing cuddle time, or sticking to special routines, I tailor each visit to your pet’s unique personality and needs. You can count on me for: 🎭 Daily walks, playtime, and enrichment 🐾 Drop-ins, house sitting, or overnight care 🦴 Feeding, meds, and updates with adorable photos 🏠 Respectful, tidy care of your home during visits I co-parent a sweet rescue Pitanese named Atlas, but he will not be present in my home when your dog(s) come to stay. I will only care for one dog family in my home at a time (up to 2 dogs.) As a devoted dog parent, I know how important it is to trust someone with your family member(s), and I’d be honored to provide a reliable, loving presence while you’re away. Let’s connect—I can’t wait to meet your furry family! I will be off from my teaching job throughout much of the summer, so will have a very flexible schedule to spend with your pet(s)! I live in the bottom unit of a duplex home and have full access to a fully fenced in yard. My upstairs neighbor has a dog, but doesn't use the yard with his dog and exits through a separate entrance. I'm a gardener, so your dog will always be supervised while playing in the yard. We live near trails and a park, so there is plenty of opportunity for enrichment on walks as well. I allow my dog on the sofa, but if this is not a habit you want your dog to pick up, I will follow those instructions. I have past experience giving oral medication, caring for senior dogs, puppies, and dogs in recovery from an injury.

“Rachel was great! She spent a good time with my kitties, and they seemed to really warm up to her which is usually not their norm. She was communicative and sent pictures which I so appreciate!”


“Briana has been amazing to my sweet Penelope! They had an instant connection, and Briana has given me peace of mind that P is taken care of during drop in services.”
