Shane was fantastic. Responsible, communicative, clearly understands dogs and was patient with our pup who is, frankly, very annoying at first but he took the time to become buds and see how great our dog is.

Zoe was an amazing cat sitter for our two cats while we were away. She replies super quickly to messages and provides a detailed summary of every visit, including a lot of photos. But more importantly, she took great care of our cats, giving them food, cleaning after them, and giving them lots of love and attention. I would reach out to her should we need someone to look after them again, and I would definitely recommend her to other pet owners.

Jen is such a trustworthy and caring pet sitter and we feel SO fortunate to have found her! Her check-in updates were so detailed and the pictures she took of Maya were adorable. It’s so comforting knowing our girl was in the best of hands while we were away. We will definitely be contacting Jen again for future pet care! Thank you, Jen!!

I have three dogs at home and every time Serena comes by all three of them run to her jumping on her. They love her so much because how good she is with dogs. She is very kind and gentle with all of them and I can really tell the genuine love she has for them all even random dogs she may spot in public.

Kelly has provided great care for my puppy. I work long hours and needed someone to care for him during the day while I’m gone. Kelly has been a great fit, reliable, and friendly. I feel a lot better about leaving him during the day knowing that he is in good hands! Thank you Kelly! Bennett loves his time with you!

Carter is great with pets and understands their needs. He’s very active, likes to walk, and can adapt to many situations. He has watched and walked a range of young, old, large, and small dogs (along with a few cats) and can handle them all well. His pharmacy background gives him unique insight into vet meds and how to properly administer any medication they may be on.

About: I have been surrounded by dogs since childhood. Responsible for walks, training, feeding, and clean up. Right now I live in a condo with my adorable maine coon cat that I take care of! I work from home and love to get outside. I am flexible for walks during the week! I can be available as needed for drop ins at any local dog park. I go on several walks around the neighborhood throughout the day as part of a daily routine. Many dog friendly local parks are conveniently available!

Lauren is a true lover of animals. She has two adorable cats she treats like her own children, but she has a knack for caring for dogs as well. She’s great at making dogs who might be shy or nervous more comfortable, like my own dog Fox.
