Karen was great! Watched our (2) cats with a very quick short notice. Gave us updates, brought in our mail, and did a final walkthrough/sweep before they left. We will be using her services again.

About: I've had pets of my own for over 15 years, and currently have two dogs of my own! I have been pet sitting since I was a teenager and am a HUGE animal lover. I have experience caring for dogs, cats, and farm animals! My dogs are both over 70lbs, so I am very comfortable with larger dogs. I'm looking to walk dogs over weekends or in the evenings! (I could even do some early morning if you are close by!) I am currently a stay-at-home mom and this would be a great way to earn some extra income while being flexible for my family! If dogs need to be in the crate, I will always ensure the crate is locked properly and check multiple times to ensure the dog cannot get out. I am very careful with my own home when going in and out with our pets as well as locking up when leaving for safety. When caring for others pets, I will make sure to check everything multiple times before leaving! I love animals and will always show them the care as if they were my own.

About: I grew up with dogs and have always been the go-to pet sitter for all my friends and family. I have a soft spot for senior pets and love giving them the extra love and pampering they deserve. I'm working part time for the summer so I have lots of free time to spend with your pets! My schedule consists of intermittent 3 hour shifts throughout the week and weekend. I always take dogs out on a leash to ensure safety of the dog and others. If I am at the home with the dog I will always let them roam free in areas they are allowed to be in and will crate them if I need to leave for an extended period of time.

Sandy was super responsive to our last-minute request to watch our kitty for a long weekend. She is friendly and clearly cares a lot about animals. We felt comfortable leaving our cat alone for the weekend knowing Sandy would be checking in. Marcy (our cat) seemed happy and well taken care of when we got home. We would definitely use Sandy again.

About: (For the month of June willing to accept last minute requests.) I bring over 10 years of hands-on experience caring for both cats and dogs, with a strong foundation developed in a home with three cats and three dogs. I’ve consistently been the trusted pet sitter for our family, managing the care of multiple pets with attention to detail and consistency. During my time at college in Florida, I continued this commitment by helping care for cats on campus, gaining experience with a variety of personalities, needs, and environments. I am comfortable administering medication, including oral treatments and mixing medication with food, and I take pride in maintaining each pet’s routine to ensure a calm, low-stress experience. Known for being reliable and attentive, I approach every visit with patience, care, and a genuine love for animals, treating each cat as if they were my own while providing owners with confidence and peace of mind. I am home for summer break from college. I am available most days, with notice. Rover is my only source of employment, so no other conflicts will arise to interfere with your pets care. I have a dependable vehicle and I’m flexible with schedules. I respect your home and take pride in offering a safe and secure environment for your pets.

About: Going on vacation or out of town? I would love to care for your dogs where they will be loved, safe and comfortable, given lots of attention and can exercise, play, and socialize! Customized care is available for special needs or senior dogs. I am a life-long dog owner and have been dog boarding and pet sitting for 15 years. I am insured and bonded. Dog boarding is what I do full-time, so I am available to take care of your pups anytime, 7 days a week! They will be cared for and receive attention during the day and overnight. We have a large, fully fenced yard and our home is clean and smoke free. The entire house is theirs to play and relax in. We have plenty of comfortable, clean, and freshly washed dog beds. If you prefer, you can also bring your own bedding. They are always lots of clean toys and there is a dog door to the backyard. For the safety and serenity of all guests, dogs must be non-aggressive and up-to-date on shots.

We had a great experience with Melissa! She sent us lots of updates of our dog Bronson and was able to do an extra visit when we told her we were going to be home later than we thought. We hope she can help us again in the future.

Monica was terrific! Very professional and personable. I could tell from the pictures she would send while on her walks with my two doodles, they were comfortable with her. Knowing she was with my dogs gave me an extra sense of comfort while being away from my boys. I would definitely book her again.
