Kristin was very thorough and thoughtful when meeting our pups. She did a great job walking our dogs and following up with how they did. We would definitely consider booking with her again.

Lavina is the best! My dog can be very playful (and not listen lol) and she has been very patient with him. She is very professional and gives me updates. So glad to have her take care of my pup! ?

Tiffany has been such a great help for my family! She has cared for and petsit my cat for the past 9 years when I would travel or be away from home and required assistance. I trust Tiffany because her attentive and warm level of care is reflected in her pleasant and professional demeanor, and my picky kitty automatically gravitated towards her. I strongly recommend her for other pet owners!

About: My name is Danielle and I'm 31 years old. I have been working full time for a pet sitting company for over 8 years now and I'm looking to take care of even more pets on the side! I have 2 dogs and 3 cats of my own and have owned several animals throughout my life. I am looking to do this part time as a fun, enjoyable side job while I pursue my career as an artist. I've never met an animal I didn't love so this would be the perfect job for me! I have experience with exotic animals in addition to dogs and cats, so don't hesitate to request my services for special critters too! NOTE: Because I have other pets I am only available to watch pets in their own homes I currently work full time as an artist from home, so I've got a pretty flexible schedule to fit in seeing your critters as needed! I am unable to care for critters in my own home, but I'll make sure your pets are nice and comfy in their own homes while you're away and follow any instructions provided to me.

Joy is excellent with all animals. She loved and cared for my dog while we were on a 9 day trip. She is trustworthy to stay at my home and walked Ruger and sent us pictures of all the fun and love he was having. I highly recommend Joy to any family.

Claudia took care of my cats for 14 years whenever the need arose and I have trusted her completely. She was my cat whisperer! I now have a rescue dog and she is so good with her. My dog adores her; she gets so excited when she sees Claudia pull in the driveway. She is now my dog whisperer!

We have had Jackie care for our small dog and couldn’t be happier. Jackie has worked with animals for years and made our small somewhat nervous dog feel comfortable so quickly! She is attentive to our dog’s needs and takes time to interact with as well as care for our sweet Lucky!

Rachel has helped take care of my pups (all 7 of them!) for close to a decade now, and has done a phenomenal job every time. She is the kindest, most caring, sweetest, hardest working, most animal loving pet sitter anyone could hope to find, and will always put your pet’s health and wellbeing first and foremost in every decision she makes. Our dogs LOVE going to see their “2nd mother”, as they’re always treated as members of the family every time she takes care of them.

About: I had a wonderful dog named Miles who passed in 2021. He was my first experience with my own animal friend and it was one of the best experiences of my life. He needed a lot of care in his last couple of years (he died when he was 16) as he had arthritis and other age related issues that required a lot of love and patience. Currently I have a cat named Alice who is a sweet orange cat with lots of personality. I look forward to making some new animal friends! I currently work full time two miles from my house so I am able to come home for a long lunch break when needed. For over night stays a Friday through Sunday would work best for me so that I can provide lots of attention to your pet. I care for my cat by providing her with a stimulating environment. Lots of pets, lots of love, and attention. I would do the same for your beloved animal friend.

Rhea is such a caring, responsible person. She is great with dogs of all breeds and treats each as if they are her own- giving them plenty of exercise, socialization and love! I wouldn't hesitate to leave my dog with her while I'm away and would recommend her to anyone looking for someone to care for a four-legged family member.
