“Megan is the best! Not only is she warm and wonderful with the dogs (one pooch kept looking for her throughout our first night back!) but also she is responsible, communicative, and sent photos while we were away for 8 days…and how really nice to come home and find everything clean and tidy. Of course, we missed our pooches but were able to enjoy our vacation knowing they were in Megan’s conscientious care. Clearly, Megan is our first choice for future bookings!”
“Great woman, took care of my baby like her own. I can’t thank her enough. She was super patient with my baby. Very accommodating when I needed it and gave me regular updates sometimes 2-3 times a day. I can’t thank her enough, and I can’t wait to refer her to others and will definitely use her again in my future trips!”
“Dorthy did a fantastic job taking care of all 6 of our pets! She went above and beyond and took care of them as her own! She has a gift with animals and all of our pets loved her. I would absolutely recommended her to anyone looking for a fabulous sitter!”
“Lauren is amazing! She’s watched my dogs numerous times at this point and the dogs love her! She’s responsible, takes care of things around the house, ensure the dogs are having a good time and keeps me informed! Thank you always!!”
“Ashley was absolutely wonderful. She communicated with me frequently and sent several photos of our pups and she was very detailed in every update. I would definitely recommend and use her again!”
“Sydney was very good and reliable. She communicated with me well. One of my dogs is very skittish with new people and he warmed right up to her. I’d definitely use her again on the future.”
About: I have owned and cared for dogs since I was a kid, and now at age 45, you could definitely do worse for someone to take care of your pup. I am available for boarding, house sitting (dependent upon the situation), doggy daycare and/or walks. As a retiree, I have all of the time needed to properly care for your pet. I am currently a dog owner, so your pup will have company. I have a large, fenced in yard, with plenty of shade. I primarily keep my dog in the home, so your pup will have as much time in or outside as he/she prefers.
“Lisa was great with my Greatest Dane!! She kept in contact with me and kept me informed about my fur. She's his first and last caretaker for long term... how she keeps us around!!”
“Valerie did an awesome job with our two Boxer babies. She did a couple of meet and greets prior to the gig starting to make sure our dogs were comfortable with her and she with them. We got updates along with pictures. When we arrived home, they seemed like they barely missed us. I would definitely recommend using Valerie.”
“Amanda did a fantastic job with our cats while we were away. She sent great pictures of our fur babies and communicated with me throughout the day. She answered all my questions to make sure I felt comfortable. Highly recommend.”
About: I’ve been an animal lover since childhood. When I was 9, my mom would bring home strays of all kinds and we would nurse them back to health the best we could and then find responsible owners. I’m talking cats, dogs, birds, lizards, etc! If we found an animal that needed help, we took it home and tried our best to love it! My mom was my inspiration and I’ve continued doing this for years. I’m responsible and loving and patient! Trust me to care for your babies and you won’t be disappointed! I’m retired from full time work. I do work part time but it’s based upon my preferences. My husband is also retired and is home all day. My Yorkie is given free range of our spacious home. We walk him 2 times per day. Although our yard isn’t fenced, we sit outside with our dog frequently and have a nice play area for dogs. They will never be left alone!
“Meron did great watching Milo over the weekend. She came by for a meet and greet and Milo was instantly very comfortable and friendly around her. She provided updates while we were away and arrived on time for his feedings and drop in visits throughout the day. We’d definitely use Meron again in the future!”
About: I’ve been dog sitting for over four years, working with dogs of all sizes and personalities. I have experience caring for large breeds and also potty training smaller pups. I’m proud dog parent of two well-trained dogs of my own, so I understand how important consistency and love are when caring for pets. In addition to dogs, I also specialize in cat care—making sure your friends get the attention and care they need while you’re away. Whether it’s playtime, feeding, or cuddles, your pets will be in trusted, caring hands I’m available for pet sitting Monday through Friday after 12pm, with the exception of Wednesdays. On Wednesdays, I’m available after 4 p.m. On weekends I am available at all times! ,I’m flexible and happy to work with your schedule to make sure your pets get the care they need! When caring for pets in your home, I treat them like part of my own family. I prioritize their safety, well-being, and comfort by following their usual routines and giving them plenty of attention and affection. I make sure they have fresh food and water, clean spaces, regular potty breaks, and playtime suited to their energy level. I take the time to build trust so your pet feels calm and comfortable with me, and I always keep you updated with check-ins and photos. Your pet’s happiness and security are my top priorities.
