“Grace was awesome! She was so helpful with toby, always sending me picture updates of her drop in with Toby. I will definitely be reaching out to her again with any help I need with Toby:-)”


“Jessica was fantastic with providing clear communication, including updates, photos, and how our pupper was doing! Very pleasant experience and would recommend/have again in the future.”


“Jeff did a great job watching my two cats, making sure they got their food, meds, and lots of snuggle time or just time with some company. He was very responsive, was respectful of all my requests - including a bit of a crazy food/med routine - and I could tell my cats really bonded with him and were happy to see him. It's always such a relief knowing your pets are being well cared for while you're away!”


“Katherine is the best. She has helped us with our cat, mail, packages, and unexpected needs. She is very kind and we feel so lucky to have found her.”


“Amy is wonderful! She did drop in visits for my two dogs while I was on vacation for 2 weeks. I could tell my dogs liked having her around from the daily updates and photos. I highly recommend her as a sitter and will definitely be requesting her pet services in the future!”


“Excellent visits! Great communication, sent lots of photos and very interactive with our cats. Flexible with providing care and changing up day to day routine. Absolutely perfect pet sitting experience!”


“Liz was incredible with our older dog. She was always there on time, even early during his morning visits. She brought treats and sent so many adorable photos of how well he was doing while we were away. I would absolutely use Liz again in the future. What a gem!”


“Elijah was very reliable and did a fantastic job of communicating from the first time I reached out to him about sitting. He took lots of photos and wrote notes that made it clear exactly how our cats were doing while we were away. Will definitely ask him to watch them again!”


“Hannah exceeded expectations. I was able to relax and enjoy my little getaway knowing my dogs were well cared for. She was courteous, communicative, and professional. She kept me informed while I was away—with a bonus of super adorable pictures. She’s a gem! Thank you, Hannah. Duke and Barbecue look forward to seeing you again. 🐾🩷”


“I hired Cassie because I was getting put on twelve hour shifts for a week at work which I was already stressed about and then I had to figure out what to do with my dog. Cassie did an amazing job to where I didn’t have to worry about my dog during the day. I would definitely recommend hiring her!”


“Abigail really connects with Our boys. The pictures are great. Abigail sends detailed report cards each day- for example: on the water level / cleanliness of the water bowl & food bowl area. Will book again.”

“I recently booked Mallory for an overnight stay happening in a few weeks. Yesterday I found myself in a pinch when my regular drop-in sitter wasn’t available last-minute, so I reached out to Mallory and she really saved the day! I so appreciate her quick responses, all the awesome pictures of my dog and the video of them playing together. Oh and the doggie report on his business. It’s quite comforting to have that level of attention and communication provided when your precious pets are in the care of others. Very grateful to have found her!”


“Jora was wonderful to work with! I will definitely use her again. She was timely, communicative, and loved on my sweet senior angel baby! Even keen enough to put a smaller treat away before she left so Penny wasn’t unsupervised with it. Would definitely recommend to anyone!!”


“Katie is wonderful! I loved getting an update and picture of Henry when she visited him. It’s so nice having a reliable petsitter. I will definitely ask Katie to take care of my boy again!”


About: With over 10 years of experience with dogs, I became the go-to person for friends and family — and soon their friends started calling me, too. I’ve also fostered for a local nonprofit animal rescue, though my schedule doesn’t allow me to have my own dog right now. I’ve cared for every kind of pup, from teacup Yorkies to sheepadoodles, and all ages from 3 months to 16 years. I’m comfortable with walks, feedings, baths — and if they need extra patience, daily meds, or a little more cuddle time, I’m here for it. My goal is for your pet to feel just as happy and secure with me as they do with you. My schedule varies since I’m in physician assistant school, but I can always make time! On weekdays, I’m available for walks/ drop-ins in the early mornings, afternoons, or evenings depending on the day. I’m also available most weekends. While I’m not able to board dogs in my home, I’m happy to stay at yours so your pet can stick to their routine and feel comfortable in their own space. I’m super flexible!! I’ll care for your pets exactly the way you do. I follow instructions closely, so everything feels comfortable while you’re away. I’m respectful of your home, keep things tidy, and make sure your pets are safe, happy, and loved!
