Claudia is an amazing pet sitter and gets our highest recommendation. She was very consistent in letting us know how our dogs were doing and spent quality time with them during each visit. We were 100% confident that the dogs were being loved and given attention, as we could see how happy and at ease the dogs were in all the pictures she shared with us. We will definitely ask Claudia to watch the dogs again the next time we are away.

Angela was punctual and gave me good communication. She stayed later than the agreement to make sure my dog went potty, for which I was thankful. Would hire again.

Scout was wonderful with my two cats. Although one was elusive for the 4 days we were gone. The other one is very social and enjoyed her time with Scout. Scout gave her plenty of play time during her visits. I really appreciated Scout being able to take care of our girls on such short notice. Will definitely be using her again. Thank you.

Taresse was great as always with our cats, from coming at a special time one day when our senior kitty wouldn't take his meds to staying longer another day to help one of our boys feel more comfortable during thunderstorms.

Alex did a wonderful job with my 2 dogs. We weren’t able to do an in-person meet and greet before the booking, but she did a great job with my nervous chihuahua and even got her to eat (which she usually won’t for others). She took a lot of great photos and provided a detailed description of her visit. 1000% recommend!

Aryanna took great care of our kitty while we were away for a long weekend! She kept us updated and shared lots of pictures with us. It definitely put us at ease knowing we had another cat lover watching our boy for us.

Laurie and James do an AWESOME job with our Golden Retriever puppy. We are gone during the day and that leads to problems when you have a new puppy. He is too young for daycare and needs some direction. :-). Laurie and James come daily to exercise Hamilton, reinforce training and just give him love before my son gets home at 2. Hamilton has thrived since they started and it really helps that he has had some midday structured time. Their love of dogs is evident and, while it is easy to find people who love dogs, the key is to find people who know that does not mean “let the dog do whatever he wants”. James and Laurie are that perfect balance.

About: I will take care of all animals and I can do medicine for dogs or cats who need it. If a dog is special I will take care of them. I will put the animals first no matter what is going on. I can do emergency pet sitting. I love animals all kinds of animals and i love taking care of them also. I can walk as far as you need the dogs to be walked, I love walking. I can stay overnight if you need me to. If the pets have a certain schedule I will stick to the schedule. I can pet sit for however long you need me to pet sit. I will love and treat the pets with nothing but love and respect. I am currently a stay at home fur parent but I want to take care of animals again cause that’s what I love, I love pet sitting. I would stick to a schedule and I would follow the rules and I will constantly play with them. And if you want help training I help with that too. And most importantly I will keep them safe.

Erika took care of our dog and two cats for a week long vacation. One of our cats required twice daily medication as well. She was prompt, thorough, and allowed us to fully enjoy our vacation because we knew our animals were in great care. We will highly recommend her to friends and definitely look forward to working with her again. We know our animals will miss her!!

Nicole is amazing! We have had the same dog sitter for 7 years, this was the first year we had to get a new sitter cause prior sitter moved too far away. When I left on Saturday I was so anxious about my baby. Every check in Nicole provide an update. She was so aware of Sandy’s behavior as they changed a bit through the week. She set me pictures and updates. I can’t tell how amazing that feels to know my baby was cared for in the same way I would have cared for her. When we got home, and for the fist time in while, Sandy was not “mad” at us for leaving. Yes I can tell when my dog is not happy with me. Thank you so much Nicole for your amazing care for my baby. Hope to be able to book you in the near future. ?

Sebby seemed in great spirit when I came home (from an 10 hour shifts) after Jessica having to drop ins and walks with him! He has never been on a leash with a stranger and Jessiva still made it happen and I know he can be pretty stubborn so I'd definitely give her all the credit for handling him!

Vanessa took such great care of my pups while I was gone for the evening. She sent pictures and updates during her visit to reassure me after a previous negative Rover experience. I will definitely be booking her again in the future!

I do not trust many people with my dogs but after seeing John interact with animals I knew he would take great care of them. My anxious dogs warmed right up to him. He communicates great and even sends pictures of your pets while he’s with them!

Matt has been walking and pet sitting for my two dogs for the past 3 years. He is very caring with them and does a great job walking and playing with them. I would definitely recommend him as a dog walker and dog sitter.
