Haley did an excellent job taking care of our bunnies while we were away! Provided very detailed updates, lots of pictures, and made me feel very confident about their care. Haley even went above and beyond by taking care of things in house, like noticing that my bananas were going bad and putting in the freezer for me ☺️. Highly recommend and will hire again!

Laura was quick to respond to a last minute booking. Communicated well before and during her visit. Sent pictures and I knew our dog was in great hands. Spent time playing with our dog and helping to keep him entertained while my husband and I were out. I have 0 complaints and felt 100% comfortable! Would definitely recommend hiring Laura for your pet needs

Megan was reliable and came by everyday to spend time with our cat Finley while we were away for a week on vacation. Would use Megan again for any upcoming trips in the future to take care of our cat.

About: For as long as I can remember, I’ve always had a dog and it cat in my house. My first dog growing up was a brown lab and we quickly got a second lab who I picked out myself at 3 years old. Having that lab die when I was in high school was heart breaking. We immediately got a dog soon after to fill our hearts with the love we lost. I currently have an Australian Cattle Dog and a torbie. Let me take care of your fur baby when you don’t have the time and I’ll treat them like my own with all the love and care you would give them. I’m currently unemployed so I’m free 24/7. I do not believe in leaving animals alone. I do have a car so I will actually take them on errands with me. I am constantly with my fur babies and do not like to leave them alone. When I go into a room they come with me. I pay close attention to see if anyone needs a walk but will typically walk them every 2-4 hours or directly after feedings and right before bed. I just moved into a new home with a yard as well and usually like to sit outside and do some work on my computer. If requested, I can provide a crate for your fur baby as well or let them roam free at night. Everyone is allowed on furniture for more cuddles and love of course.

About: I’ve taken care of animals since I was a little kid. I took care of my own pets and my extended and immediate families animals. I had two dogs growing up, several hamsters, and Guinea pigs. I would feed them every day clean their cages or areas and take them on walks throughout the day if able to. I am currently a student attending Holy Family University where I also play basketball. I am back early to participle in summer league basketball games and workouts, but other than that my schedule is very free. I will follow the owners instructions and take care of pets as normal. I will make sure that a dog stays on its regular schedule so they stay content while their owner is away.

Emeline is awesome, shes our go-to sitter! We're so grateful we found her and shes also close to home. Big plus! She's never let us down, good communication during visits & gives Moomie good long walks at the park since we told her Moomies old and doesn't get out much. Moomie absolutely loves her & she knows what days Ems comes by because she waits by the window for her to come, that is sold us! If you're looking for a reliable & professional sitter Em is the best around!
