About: I love animals and have had pets as far back as I can remember. I currently have 3 dogs, two shih Tzu's and a labor doodle. I enjoy spending free time playing outside with them. I work from home, so i spend countless hours with my pups and play with them on breaks and lunches. My wife also works part time and is able to play with our dogs along with taking them outside in our fenced in back yard. Unfortunately going forward I can no longer take drop offs or pick ups after 1030pm est or before 9am. This is due to my 1 year old son who requires a full night's rest. I apologize for any inconvenience this may cause. For some reason if you cannot make that time frame please let me know and I'll do my best to accommodate your situation. I have a fenced in backyard for your dog to roam around and play in. I also have 3 other dogs they could play with.

“He was awesome! My cats are super-nervous rescues, and he stayed at the house to make them feel better while we were traveling. He gave me regular updates, and got the cats feeling comfortable enough to come out of hiding! Was a great cat sitter!”
5. Kitty L.
“I have two dogs with very different personalities. Kitty was wonderful with both. Her dogs are very friendly and the crew quickly got to know each other and got along quickly. Kitty has a wonderful way of working with dogs. I will be asking her to take care of the pups again in the future!”
6. Ashlen D.

About: I am a self-employed, stay-at-home mom who LOVES animals of all kinds, from bearded dragons to Bernese Mountain dogs, parakeets to Pekingese. Our current fuzzy companions include our Great Pyrenees, Rocky; two cats, Mrs. Kitty and Portland and 4 Peking ducks. Past menageries have includes chinchillas, hamsters, rabbits, rats, dogs, cats, parakeets, tarantulas and lizards. My husband and I have three girls, ages 3, 9 and 14, that I seem to have passed the animal obsession bug to. We have a huge property with a creek out front, so there is plenty of room right outside our door for exercise. We’d love to watch whatever you have, and will spoil them rotten with attention. We are athletic, outdoorsy people, so if you are looking for a dog walker, we would love to help out! We are happy to pick up and drop off as needed, and would love to help out with whatever you may need! We have two cats, four ducks and a dog, so I'm very used to caring for animals. Working your fur baby into our routine will be a pleasure! Your pet will be treated as our own and smothered with attention from our kids :) If you have any specific needs, please let me know! I can administer meds.

“Abbie is one of the top people I recommend to take care of animals! She has such a great heart and love for animals. Abbie is very attentive to the dogs and it’s needs. I have eight animals of my own and she does amazing with them all! They love her dearly. She is extremely reliable. I trust her 100% with my crew and so should you! I work as a full time dog trainer and can definitely point out a true animal lover when I see one. She is patient with my older pups, kind, and overall just an amazing person. If you need someone to watch your animals, this is your girl! She won’t let you down.”
12. Elizabeth S.
“We hired Elizabeth to petsit our cat who was injured and needed medication. She was able to help last minute and stay in our home with our fur baby to continue his treatment. She gave him all his meds on time and treated our home with respect. To add a constructive note I would suggest that the communication while sitting could improve. Overall Elizabeth is a good sitter and would recommend!”

16. Mathias H.
About: I've grown up with a love of all animals and have had at least one dog or cat in the family for as long as I can remember. My mom managed a boarding and training kennel and took me to work with her every day, where I not only assisted her with the daily tasks, but also learned about caring for animals of all types and sizes. I started pet sitting for family and friends around the age of 10, and also was responsible for taking care of the pets in our home. I take my animals out for regular playtime and bathroom breaks, clean up the yard, and feed and water as needed. We have an older dog so I've also gotten comfortable with administering medication, whether it's chewable, hiding pills in treats, or injecting into the animal itself. I was bit by the pet lover bug at an early age, and it's become a huge passion in my life. My schedule is open and ready to accommodate any of your pet sitting needs. I have reliable transportation so I can either stay overnight to pet sit for you or stop by for a quick check-in or playtime. I will treat your dog or cat like a member of my own fur family.I am comfortable feeding, crating, and administering medicine as needed. I will put the safety of your animals above everything else, so rest assured your pets are my top priority.

“Keeley was the first friend of my sons that came to my mind to dog sit my fur babies when I went on vacation! She is a fur mama herself and loves animals ! I love my dogs like children and would never leave them with anyone who wouldn’t treat them the same as I do ! They immediately bonded with her and I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing they were safe and sound in her care ! I would recommend Keeley to anyone!”
18. Bridgette B.
“Bridgette is more then willing to go above and beyond to accommodate different situations. She is very professional in her duties that have been agreed upon. Is very attentive to my pets needs, and shows a lot of caring in doing so. I would highly recommend her to anyone who is in need of loving and highly skilled care for their pet.”
19. Destiny W.
“Destiny did a good job watching my 2 doggies. A yorkie and pit bull mix. She offered to have an early meet and greet which helped them recognize her when she came to stay. House was neat and clean when I came home. I did have to reach out for my updates but not a big deal.”
20. Carly C.
“Carly is an incredible dog mom! Working at an animal shelter and fostering many dogs has allowed her to be an exceptional dog carer, always knowing how to handle every situation or emergency. I always call her when I have a question regarding my dogs. She loves her two pups endlessly, is very active, and always puts the dogs' needs first. I know she would take amazing care of your dogs as well!”
