“Super sitter! Duke loves Julie. They played and went for walks. He is really tiny and we are very protective of him. Julie was awesome with him. I definitely will have her again.”
2. Kim R.
“Kim was an absolute lifesaver during Hurricane Helene. She stayed with our fur babies the entire time, keeping them safe, calm, and cared for. Despite the storm, we had complete peace of mind knowing they were in Kim’s hands. Her dedication, kindness, and love for our pets truly shine. We are so grateful for her and are thrilled to have her as our sitter from this point forward! if you’re looking for a great sitter or house sitter that treats your babies like her own, look no further because Kim is literally the best. I wish I could give her 10 stars!”

6. Ana L.
About: I am an animal lover. I have always had to take care of someone’s dog(kid). I have four dogs of my own and would want someone to take good care of them. Patience is definitely a key component into taking care of them. I am currently working a full time job but my weekends are free to make extra money. I can do sitting after 6:00pm on Fridays. I have a fenced in yard for your legged kid to run around. I also have hard wood floors incase they were to have an accident. I rather have your pet inside than inside for better care.
