Jen was great, she took very good care of our babies. She sent lots of pictures which made us fell like we made a good choice having Jen watch our dogs.

Briana leaves the best “Rover Cards” after each visit! It’s very nice and reassuring to get a detailed message of how my dogs are doing while I’m away. She is very professional and kind. Couldn’t recommend her more!

Sarah clearly earned the trust of our boys. The “furry friends report card” was a nice touch and so detailed you felt you were watching the visit. Our cat Jasper has a new friend and looks forward to seeing Sarah again. We will not hesitate to book her the next time we need some TLC for our pets.

Madison is so friendly and reliable! We appreciate her working with us to watch our entire pack over the holidays with little advance notice. We reached out to her a second time for a pop up visit when we had a gap in coverage and were grateful she was so flexible and willing to help. Our doggos seemed to love her and were well cared for while we were gone. We will definitely book with her again!

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and have adopted both of my fur babies. I care for all animals-no matter the breed and will treat your babies like they’re my own! I’m available for walking and drop in visits any day of the week and would be able to stay with your fur babies on the weekends in your home! 🐶 Pets are most comfortable in their own home, which is why I will come to you! Let me know their routine and I will accommodate for you!

Caitlin has loved animals all her life. She has always had a dog and/or cat in the house growing up. She works with dogs at her job and there have been several dogs that only respond positively to her. She often dog-sits for friends and neighbors. Caitlin loves to participate in "Dog's Day Out" through the Animal Rescue League. You won't find anyone that cares for and loves animals more than Caitlin. I would trust her with anyone's pet. Your loved ones would be in very good hands.

I’ve known Ella for around ten years, and she watches my dog, Josie, at least once a week while I’m at work. She is very attentive to Josie’s needs and is great at understanding what she might be asking for (food, water, outside play time, etc.) She is flexible, responsible, and professional in all of her work, and I would highly recommend to any friends and family to watch your furry friends.

I am so thankful for Jaron coming to let out all three of my pups during the day. I have been doing it for a few months now and they all love him. I enjoy the pictures I get to see of them every time he comes. I would highly recommend having Jaron watch or take care of your animals!

Beth has dog sat for us many times. Our golden-doodle, Koda loves going to Beth’s house. She treats him like her own. If your looking for a responsible, caring and experienced dog watcher Beth is it. She’s the best.

About: I have experience with almost all dog breeds. I have had dogs and cats and various other animals as pets my whole life. I am currently 32 years old and have 3 dogs and house bunny. My bubba boy is an American Staffy, my crazy girl is a boxer/pit mix, and my baby dog is a chiweenie. My daughters bunny is a black and white Dutch bunny and is so fun to have in our home free roaming. I spent the last year in Florida working at a pet resort where I met all kinds of dogs and cats. I mostly worked with the dogs and this included, feeding, playtime, baths, nail trims, potty breaks, and cuddles. All while maintaining the safety of the dog. I am confident in my ability to work with dogs of all temperaments and sizes. I find true joy caring for animals and I can't wait to meet your furbaby. I currently only need to be available to my daughter. She's living her best life, and I'm her driver. I am available Monday through Friday after 8am until 330pm and then available again from 4pm on. On weekends I have full availability. I have a separate bedroom that I can keep your babies in and then I can keep my personal pets downstairs away from your pets so they can explore our home for playtime and not always be in the bedroom. I also have a fully fenced yard with adequate green space. If I were to pet sit within your home I would follow your requests and we could discuss plans further upon scheduling.
