We are so thankful that Joshua was available to watch our dog and house for our recent vacation. We were gone just under a month and he took excellent care of everything, texting us with regular updates and sending videos of our pup. It is clear that he is very caring and conscientious. We already have several more mini vacations planned! 😊

Sidney was a HUGE help. We needed a house sitter last minute and she responded quickly and was willing to do a meet and greet in advance for our peace of mind. We were out of state so it was very important we had updates and communication. Sidney went above and beyond to provide photos, videos and constant reassurance of how things were going. She respected our house rules and asked for permission before anything. We appreciated her greatly and are now rebooking her moving forward🤗

Angel is amazing! She is kind, a great communicator, and reliable. Our dog had a little bit of an upset tummy from seperation anxiety when we left and Angel cared and looked out for her. We were out of state and it was really nice knowing we had someone trusted to care for her while we were away. Highly recommend Angel!

Eric has been a great friend of mine since high school. Whenever I’m out of town or very busy, I always ask him to stay the night at my apartment and take care of my husky. He shows initiative and is also reliable. I would recommend him.

About: Long time animal lover and pet owner, devoted to helping our furry friends live their best life. Current dog mom of two, I've been caring for mine and other people's pets for years. I started from dropping in to check on neighbors dogs and cats in my teens to caring for the pets of families I provided childcare to in adulthood. I'm happy to walk, feed, play with, reinforce training, bathe, and clean up after any pet. I am currently working part-time, so my schedule is fairly flexible. I'm very available during weekdays up until 7pm, and for drop-ins on the weekend. If needed, I have a fully fenced in yard and both a small dog crate and a large one. Being a dog mom myself, I would only be able to house other pets if mine are with their dad or if ours jive well together. When visiting pets in their own home, I play with/give attention to the pet upon arrival, complete any tasks given to me by their owner, and shower the pet with as much love as they want while I'm there.

About: I’ve had multiple types of animals from the moment I was born, and been a die hard animal lover ever since. I am a certified veterinary assistant and I currently work at a pet resort, so I’m experienced and knowledgeable in how to take care of all your pets needs! I currently have two cats, a 14 year old female who’s my cranky old lady and a 3 year old male who’s super rambunctious! I also have two German shepherds, so I can very easily handle large breed dogs. I can gladly walk, care for, and play with all your fur babies! Every animal I come across gets the same love and attention I’d give my own babies. Being in the veterinary medicine field I have plenty of hands on experience when it comes to caring for and handling all types of animals and all their specials needs. I am able to give oral and injectable medications no problem, follow any specific diet regimes, as well as handle any food aggressive dog with ease. I do work at a pet resort currently, but my schedule is still pretty flexible. That being said, I prefer to take dog clients that are okay being alone for 4-8 hours as my work schedule will usually have me gone anywhere 4-8 hours at a time. I do not drive currently but still easily get around and always arrive anywhere I need to be promptly and on time. If you live outside of my service radius I reserve the right to charge an extra fee (up to $50) for transportation to your home. Thank you for your understanding! My shepherds are indoor/outdoor, they are crate trained, house broken, and get lots of play time and exercise in the form of walks and outside games of fetch. My cats are indoor only, litterbox trained, and get lots of love and playtime. All the animals also get spoiled with treats and tons of attention! I’d treat your animals the same I would my own, make sure they’re happy and healthy and taken care of. Being trained in the veterinary medicine field, I can also safely take care of any special medical needs or restrictions your fur babies may have as well.

I felt comfortable with Zena taking care of my fur babies. She did give me an update and a photo of my fur baby and also told me when she left the house and for how long. She is very responsible and came on time. I definately will book again with her. Thanks

Matthew is wonderful in helping care for my dogs. I have two wonderful pups both under 2 years. He walks, plays and cares for them multiple times a week. He’s able to train them and is patient. It’s evident he enjoys being with dogs and takes excellent care of them. He includes new and engaging enrichment every time he cares for my pups! You would be lucky to have him watch your pets!

Lizbeth has been my biggest help with my dog. Whenever I need someone to look out for my husky rocky, I can trust Lizbeth will give him the care he needs. He can be a bit high maintenance but liz always handles the situation greatly 😊

Noah is absolutely wonderful with our 7 yr old Shih-tsu. He has house sat for us numerous times and has taken care of our dog. We’ve always had great experiences with him and our fur baby loves him! I’d highly recommend Noah!

About: Not only have I grew up all my life with different dogs and cats I also have worked for Pet Smart that required me to work with different animals each day. I have open availability I go to school full time and I am looking for a job that will be able to work with my schedule I also love to be around animals that uplifts my mood I would make sure they are happy and safe if it is for a walk I would drink water and snacks for them with approval first and maybe socks for them so the paws don’t get too hot on the pavement. For house sitting I would ensure that they are safe, being fed, and getting the quality time they need for playtime
