Hana was superb for our short notice overnighter. She was on time, communicative, and I would never have even known she was at the house. We will definitely be keeping her in mind in the future!

She is punctual and responsive to all messages. Tiffany is very personal, professional and patient with our dogs. She allowed my older dog to relax and chill out while at the same time, she played with my very energetic and playful puppy.

Chris took great care of Maggie and my house. Chris sent us lots of pictures and comments about Maggie. We will definitely have Chris back when we need another dog and house sitter. I'm really happy the experience was good for my dog by not leaving her in a kennel.

About: I love animals and animals seem to dig me too. I grew up around many small to large dog breeds and I am a mother of a 10 year old Pomeranian named Baby and a fluffy Persian cat named Soda. Trust that I will cater to your dogs needs-even the silly wants too. Skills: senior pet care, attention to detail, communication, patience, ability to say no to puppy eyes, playful, safety first mindset. Im a part time worker now and if you let me know in advance I can make time for that. Please dont feel shy to ask. At home my cat and dog love each other and cuddle a lot but if your pets dont get along like mine did at first then I am perfectly equipped to separate them and care for them individually.

We had an amazing experience with Melissa! She stayed in our home for a week with our two dogs, one of whom has severe anxiety. She took the time to do a meet-and-greet beforehand, gave him the space he needed, carefully read his body language, and earned his trust. She was reliable with his daily medications and patient in helping him feel comfortable. Our home was left spotless and respected, and it was clear she treated both our dogs and our space with great care. She even surprised us with a kind and thoughtful gesture at the end of the stay, which meant so much to our family. We are so grateful to have found her and would 100% book with her again. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a caring, dependable, and professional sitter!

We live in an apartment on the 2nd floor and have ample area outside to walk your pups and let them get some exercise. We hope you pick us for your overnight doggie care needs ! We enjoy taking care of dogs that we can give back! Pet care is my main source of income now! So, my routine involves them and taking my daughter to and from school! They are hardly left home alone!

Gabriel did a great job taking care of our dog, Lexi. He was responsible, attentive, and made sure to meet her specific needs. We could tell she was well cared for while we were away, and that gave us real peace of mind. Highly recommend Gabriel to anyone looking for a reliable and caring pet sitter!

About: My goal is to make sure your fur babies feel like they’re in loving hands . I’ve been around dogs and cats most of my childhood well into adulthood and I can honestly say I truly love interacting with and caring for them. I currently work , but my schedule is pretty flexible and why not fill it with doing something I can enjoy doing? Loving for and caring on fur babies. I would follow whatever structure you currently have with your pet , it seems that usually is the most efficient . Again your fur babies would be in the greatest care with me.

Abby was a life saver for us. We usually use family to help with our pets so using someone not family brought me a level of anxiety i wasn’t ready for. First impression of Abby was professional and prompt. The animals Immediately loved her and she asked all the right questions to ease this fur mom’s anxiety. Having her able to stay at our home was added peace of mind. We came home to happy pets and a clean home. I’m so thankful to have found Abby.

We loved Audrey! She was our house sitter for a weekend and our pups seemed enamored by her. She sent so many pictures and was so kind as to take them for separate walks so they got extra love and affection. Would love to have her come back again!
