Brooke was great- very communicative and kept us updated throughout the weekend. House was in perfect shape and she even brought in our trash bins. Summer is looking forward to her next visit later this week.

Sierra did a great job with our crazy dogs and was good at communication. She also sent photos. She took good care of the house while we were gone. She is a kind person, pleasant to work with. I would definitely hire her again! :)

Yuleika is the best!! She has taken care of my dog, Cocoa Bean, a few times before, but this time she did so for over 2 weeks! I appreciated that she sent photos and updates daily. On top of taking excellent care of Cocoa, she was a great house guest while we were away :)

Lesa was wonderful! She took great care of our furry friends and stuck to their schedules. She gave our dog long walks and lots of play time at the park. We got regular updates and photos from her! We felt very comfortable that they were well taken care of! She left the house in excellent condition. Would highly recommend!!

Rachel has always cared for my pets any time I need her. She has always been responsible when in my home and treated my pets like her own. My dogs don’t like to be boarded and always would be so anxious when picking them up. I found rachel to sit for my dogs and after coming back from vacation my pups were so happy and in great condition! Will always recommend her!

Kristin helped me out last minute with a housesitting gig over the holidays and was great with my nervous pup. Having an anxious dog can make leaving home stressful sometimes, but Kristin did an awesome job of making both me and my dog Harris comfortable with her staying in our home. I would recommend Kristin to any of my friends and will definitely try to book with them for future travels.

Demarcus is attentive and kind. He updated us on the pups’ days and went above and beyond to keep them happy. We had one dog who needed some extra attention and he gave her the attention and gave us updates multiple times a day. He is our new favorite sitter!

Thank you, Donovan, for staying with Peggy at my house! Peggy can be a bit vocal at times and Donovan was very patient with her as she got to know him. I really appreciated all the clear communication up front and having our meet and greet allowed us to align on all the details. It made being out of town a lot easier knowing that Donovan was taking care of Peggy.

Erin was amazing!!! She communicated great and sent pictures of my sweet boy! He’s an older dog and has a lot of medications he takes daily and she gave them without any issues! She stayed at my house so my dog wouldn’t get anxious and uncomfortable while I was away. She even cleaned the floors before she left!! I would definitely book with her again and will refer her as a wonderful pet sitter!!!

Stefany is truly a one of a kind Rover! She stayed over night at our house for a full week with our two pups and took such great care of them. We did a meet and greet before our trip, and the dogs instantly loved her and she was so attentive with asking questions and making sure the dogs would have everything they needed. She was great about checking in, sending us pictures, getting all the snuggles & playtime in, and taking great care of our house too! We even came back to the sweetest surprises from her and our dogs were so calm and well taken care of when we returned from our vacation. We will 100% have Stefany stay with our dogs again! She is truly a perfect match for our pups and a fantastic Rover. THANK YOU STEFANY!!

About: Since I was 4 years old, dogs have been a part of my family. I’ve had 3 of my own, but I treat and think of all of my friends and family pets as my own too. Even just for a walk or a short play date, your pet would be given the utmost energy, compassion, and quality care I can provide. For many years, I worked at a summer day camp where I oversaw the needs of children, and for 4 years, I did the same at UNC Children’s Hospital. A smile is always on my face and a positive attitude is always in my heart, so I hope to provide only the best interactions. I graduated from UNC Chapel Hill and UPenn. I have flexible availability to cater to the needs of you and your pet. I can go on short or long walks, come over for extended play dates, or pet sit overnight. In my own home, my pets are treated as a normal member of the family. They can enter rooms as they please, and go outside in our front, fenced-in yard when requested. We always ensure they have water in the bowls, food during meals, and belly rubs constantly. At night, my dogs have had the freedom to choose where they want to sleep as we leave their crate door open in case they want to spend the night there or in another location. Different families have different rules with their pets, and I will be sure to listen to any and all requests you have.
