“Amaris was able to sit for us at the last minute. She did a great job, updates, photos and left our house better than how we left it. We recommend Amaris and will be asking her to sit for Hermione again.”

“Rhianna was great! She was about to accommodate on short notice and on the meet and greet she asked great questions and was always trying to see what she could do to help out. She recommended a great pill to help Mugsy during the 4th with fireworks. While we were gone she communicated great and took great care of our baby and left the house in great condition. Definitely would recommend.”


“Jade was fantastic! We felt confident while out of town that all our pets were in good hands and getting the attention they needed. We definitely plan to work with her in the future.”


“Alexis was so amazing with our girl Prima! She communicated great and sent pictures. We knew she was taken care of and we had no worries at all! Would definitely recommend her to anyone and will ask her again to watch out Prima! :)”


“Jordyn did an excellent job of taking care of my huskies while I was gone for a week! With my younger one especially having destructive tendencies, I was a little worried about leaving that long, but she was great with them and the house was in great shape when I got back! She was reliable and communicative and I will definitely book her again!”


“Lexie was a fantastic dog sitter for us! She's very detailed and courteous. The pups were happy and she accommodated a few needs for our pup with IVDD. Highly recommend her!”


About: My own fur babies are spoiled, beyond loved, and probably the sweetest part of my life. My favorite part of pet sitting is getting to create bonds with new fur babies and adding to my clan without having to explain to my hunny where the new fur baby came from! 😜 I will happily pop by your home to walk your pup(s), feed them, and play with them. I also don’t mind taking care of your kitties if they need some care, company and loving. I‘ve fostered and pet-sit for decades and have never had any major issues. In fact, most fur babies have become like family! “Aunt Stac” loves getting updates from past “clients” and loves repeat visits when their parents go on vacation or out of town for work. I have a great schedule that allows me to give your babies a midday potty break or to swing by to let them out or feed them if you’re unable to come home as scheduled after work. I have my own pets so I am caring for fur babies every day, no matter what. I make sure to ask about particular behaviors of your pet and learn their personality so I can interact with them accordingly. I follow care instructions carefully so you don’t have to worry whether your fur baby is in good hands. My husband and I both have flexible work schedules so we’re easily able to accommodate our Pineapple Paws Pet Services clients. Whether your pup needs a midday walk or potty break or you’re stuck late at work and your fur baby needs dinner, we can take care of that for you! We have fur babies of our own so we’re caring for pets anyway, we’ll just add yours to the agenda! 😊 It’s important to learn the personality of your pet so we can interact appropriately. The last thing we want to do is make your baby feel uncomfortable in their home! We follow your care instructions carefully and will ask questions if we’re unsure about something.

“First time leaving my dogs behind on a trip. Chelsea took great care of them! I was concerned alot about one of them who's half blind and deaf eating, she glady kept me updated if she ate or not.”


“Cory is awesome! I was a lil nervous about leaving my fur babies but she kept me updated every day & I got lots of pictures. She left my house clean and followed all directions I left. Me & my fur babies are lucky to have found her. Definitely will be using her again !”



“Mary Kay is beyond exceptional - with care for our dog and even our home. We come hope to the happiest dog (who can be so anxious and stressed) always. Mary Kay’s communication and positivity is absolutely infectious. I cannot rave enough about her as a pet sitter and as a person. We are so lucky to have her take such wonderful care of our dog!”


“Great review. Jennifer took care of our fur baby while we were out of the country. She was prompt and took great care of not only the pup but our home. Everything was nice and neat when we got home which was much appreciated.”


“Nicole was great with our two dogs. My bigger dog is not too keen on getting close with other people, but she absolutely adored Nicole! So much that I think she wanted to go home with her lol. I know my dogs were treated well while we were on vacation. Will book with Nicole in the future. Thanks again!”


About: We have two dogs ourselves, both with special attention needed. Whether your pet has allergies, people shyness, behavior issues and more, we have grown accustomed to that and realize that all animals deserve the same love, and we plan to provide that. We have experience with senior dogs, medications needing to be given on a schedule, bathing, playing, and lots of options for toys and treats. All that said, no need is too large as your pet deserves the same level of care as you would give to your family, because they are your family. When you go on vacation, your dog should get their own vacation as well! We both grew up around dogs from a very young age and have enjoyed the companionship of other animal types as well, from fish, hamsters, guinea pigs, and more. Pet care is our daily routine. We both are blessed enough to be home throughout the entirety of the day whether that be working from home or being lucky enough to help make the home. We purposefully installed a fence for our house so that our dogs could run around and play, so your pet will get that exact same treatment. We have a quiet secluded neighborhood with lots of walking room and places to sniff, and seat protectors in the cars for on the go if your dog likes to see the world. Pup cups, dog parks, new places are all within reason.

About: Animals have been at the heart of my life for as long as I can remember. From my early toddler years, my family was always rescuing and caring for animals. That love for animals only deepened when we opened a farm, where I spent my childhood and teen years caring for dogs, cats, and everything in between. Recently, I had to say goodbye to my heart dog, Odin. While the loss was profound, it’s left me with a lot of extra love and care I’m eager to share with other animals. I have experience with dogs of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior companions, and I’m especially skilled in caring for dogs with medical needs or special routines. Whether your pet needs gentle patience, active play, or specialized care, I bring a lifetime of hands-on experience and genuine love to every animal I meet. I work part-time at the airport from 9:30-3. I am off 3 days a week so those days I am able to be home all day. I currently care for one well-behaved, crate-trained dog in my home. While we don’t allow dogs on the furniture, we go out of our way to make sure our pup is cozy, happy, and—if we’re being honest—a little bit spoiled. Comfort and care are always a top priority.

“Ava is simply the best! She truly understands small dogs and managed to bond with my barky, territorial Chiweenie—no small feat! From the start, she was attentive, sweet as pie, and sent me daily updates that made all the difference. Thanks to Ava, I was finally able to go on vacation with complete peace of mind, knowing my fur babes were in loving, capable hands. 100/10 recommend her to anyone needing a trustworthy and compassionate pet sitter! 🐾💖”


“Cheyenne was absolutely amazing! She stayed at our house for the weekend while we were out of town. She sent several updates on our pup throughout the day, gave her lots of attention, and took her on several walks! I will definitely be reaching out to here again!”


“Emily is wonderful! She dropped everything to help my father in law at the last minute. She took such good care of Bell and sent pictures/updates along the way. We are so grateful and will be reaching out again in the future ❤️”

Stacy H.
“Our little girl was able to stay in her home, her bed, her yard and be comfortable, safe and extremely well taken care of by Stacy. Stacy has been sitting for us since about 2014. At the time our girl was about 3. We still call upon Stacy. Stacy is extremely loving to our girl so much so that when we say Aunt Stacy is coming she gets excited =) Stacy is kind enough to send photos while we are away. And we feel more than comfortable with Stacy taking care of our girl along with our home. She brought the mail in for us, and made us feel a little bit better knowing that someone was at the house while we were away. I hope you chose Stacy to be your sitter as well. I know you won't regret it!”
