Emily was incredibly quick to respond, and she was energetic and polite with her communications while watching our pup. We felt like our dog was in good hands, and we won’t hesitate to book with Emily again!

The best pet sitter in town! This was my first time leaving him for more than a few hours, and I was very nervous he wouldn’t do well. My dog absolutely adores Matt and got so excited the first time they met. Matt when over and above with his services and even took him out for an extra walk each day. I got tons of pictures and videos of Buddy having the time of his life! It was so nice to see Buddy having so much fun. If you are looking for someone to drop in for your dog Matt’s the person to go to!

Gabi was really easy to work with and helped me navigate the app so I could get assistance I was looking for. She played with my dog and took him out to use the restroom and sent me photos. I was happy seeing Milo in the pictures.

Maddy has been walking and overnight sitting my dog for years. My dog has complicated medications that she administered and managed with ease. She is incredibly reliable and grew up on a farm so she is great with all types of animals.

Emilie is communicative, professional, has a sweet personality and very easy to work with. She has watched my sweet older cats several times and I always feel very comfortable having her there while I’m away. My one cat is very shy and timid at first but she was patient with him and he’s coming around. My cats are so special to me and it’s great to have someone trustworthy and reliable care for them while I’m away. Thank you, Emilie! :)

Lani’s first walking session got a little complicated when my dog became protective right at the front door. I reviewed the front door ring footage out of curiosity & was shocked to hear the noises that came from my pooch. Lani was so patient & still continued with the walking session even after some scary snarling. Lani communicated what was happening from the very beginning & even feels comfortable to return for additional walks. She was very understanding of my anxious/scared doggo.

Amy does such an amazing job! She took special care of our elderly dog while also engaging our younger dog and cat. Her updates are both informative and humorous — she really captured the character of the pets. Will definitely use again.

Danica was amazing! Our Eva was so happy and comfortable with her. She made extra effort to play with our girl and spend time with her! Danica sent the cutest photos and videos and updates. We feel very comfortable having her in our home while we are away! We are thrilled to have found such a caring, animal-loving, experienced caretaker for our girl! We will absolutely use Danica’s services again in the future and highly recommend her to take care of your pets!

About: I have years of experience volunteering at a veterinary clinic and have experience with pet boarding. I own two male French bulldogs that love to play with other dogs! I have a part-time internship in marketing and have extra availability during the week. My hours are flexible, and I can readily accommodate different schedules. I have experience in working with new dogs, making them feel comfortable while meeting the needs of their owners. I am consistent and work safely in new environments while respecting a dog's boundaries.

Claudia is simply the "BEST". It is absolutely clear that she cares dearly for our pups and all animals! Her general and deep knowledge of animals is quite vast! While visiting our farm she often gives love and attention to our other farm animals as well as our pups! Moreover -- she is extremely reliable and dependable. Would certainly recommend to any and all!!
