4. Julia G.


“Julia is kind, caring and clearly loves cats. I had peace of mind, knowing that our kitties had someone invested in their happiness and well-being checking in on them every day.”


5. Jenny L.

“Jenny is an exceptional pet sitter who went above and beyond in caring for my cat, Louie. Her attention to detail and genuine love for animals was evident from the moment she started. She sent updates with photos of Louie, showing him looking happy and content. Not only did Jenny follow Louie's feeding schedule meticulously, but she also spent quality time playing with him and giving him the attention he needs. She noticed his favorite spots around the house and made sure to give him scratches and pets just where he likes them. What impressed me most was her conscientiousness. She kept the litter box impeccably clean and even noticed when Louie was being a bit shy and knew exactly how to coax him out with his favorite toys. She left detailed notes about his daily activities, eating habits, and general mood. I returned home to find a happy, well-cared-for cat who clearly had been given lots of love and attention. Jenny's professional yet caring approach gave me complete peace of mind while I was away. I would highly recommend her services to anyone looking for a trustworthy, attentive, and loving pet sitter. She's truly a gem!”

16. Angela L.
About: I have a love for health care and a love for animals and would like to be able to blend the two while caring for your pets. I have raised two puppies to become well behaved and well adjusted parts of the family. My last dog is now my Grand dog, and I am looking for some more pup play whatever their age. I work part-time and have a flexible schedule. I am available in both the morning or evening depending on which the day of the week. I am able to care for your pets with a walk, with feeding, with medication as needed, and of course with some companionship while you are away.


17. Elizabeth I.
About: What separates me from others is that i have grown up around animals my whole life! I had dogs, cats, and even horses! I have always felt a special connection to animals! I feel I understand them in some way! I know that not every animal likes everyone and thats okay! I have delt with dog reactive dogs, and kennel reactive dogs. I have also given medication to dogs wether it was at specific times or with their breakfast and dinners! Where I work I make sure the dogs waters are full and that they have the most fun and safe time! Ill treat the animals like my own family with love and care! It fits my routine because it isnt full time. I am currently a college student and trying to make it in this economy. I know taking care of animals can be time consuming but it also means that I will have time for my school work as well! In my home I have two cats and they stay in the basement with me due to me living with my grandma. When I am home they are able to roam the whole basement but when I am not home they get their own I call mini apartment. I have a set time frame on when I feed my cats and make sure they have access to their water all day long! If i was to be in a clients home I would ask them their rules on their animal and make sure they get followed! I would also ask them if their animal likes to chew on things to ensure they dont get into anything. If an animal has a medication I would set a timer so I dont loose track because I know medicine is so important! If we go on walks I will make sure the collar isnt too loose to where it might slip off. I would take the dog to a dog friendly park(unless dog reactive).




18. Christine R.
About: I've taken care of dogs my entire life, from my first Shetland Sheepdog "Shelly", to my beloved Australian Shepherd "Joey", and now my two Maltese/Yorkies (Morkies) "Xander" and "Roxie". I'll take care of your dog like it's one of my own. Pets are allowed on the couch in my home and are guaranteed lots of attention from my two teenagers. It can be stressful to leave your pup for any length of time so I will be sure to send pictures and updates daily while you are gone! My townhome is uniquely situated with walking paths just outside the door and a well-known dog park just down the street. I work at an area high school and so in the summertime I am home all day and ready to play! (Sorry, no cats due to allergies!) Starting August 23rd I'm heading back to work for the new school year. I'll be available to sit during the week if your pup can be home alone for up to 8 hours during the day (until 3:45pm). I AM available on weekends all day and also many school holidays! I have a pet-proofed lower level the dogs are free to roam and welcome to jump up onto the furniture to relax. Water is available all day and dogs are fed while in separate areas.


19. Mark R.

“Mark helped me out last minute. Marley was very happy to see him, even did his famous beg for a treat. Mark was great about letting me know when he stopped by and left. If I ever run into a pinch again, I will definitely reach out to Mark.”


20. Pete & Holly S.

“Pete and Holly made sure our 4 pets were comfortable with them before our trip. Even came a 2nd time to visit the pets so they remembered them. Great updates during our trip.”
