“Rachel did a great job watching our old man for a couple nights. Munchie is 19 and pretty low maintenance but has his quirks. Sent pictures throughout the day and let us know when he was up and about. Would ask her to watch him again!”
“I felt very comfortable and confident leaving our pets in Megan's care while we were on vacation. Communication was always prompt with any questions I had and I know our pets were well taken care of. It's such a peace of mind knowing our pets were happy and at home with Megan vs boarding. We will definitely book her again in the future.”
“Paige was a fantastic dog sitter. We have two dogs who aren’t the best with strangers, but during the meet and greet she made them feel comfortable and did very well with them. She was so communicative during the stay, updated with pictures, and asked about certain behaviors to ensure she wasn’t letting bad behavior happen. She was so so amazing and definitely recommend!!!”
About: I have been house/dog sitting sine the mid 1980's ( I know, a whole other century)! I have no problem staying at your place and taking care of your doggies, collecting the mail, watering your plants, or whatever keeps strangers at bay. I do have allergies to cats which is a bummer as I am a new cat-grandma but can do feedings or litter changing ( I wear a mask)- I just can't stay over. I have always had dogs in my adult life, and would love to be the "Mrs. Grandma" to your little fur baby! I work from 8am to 4pm Monday-Friday beginning Aug 8.. My evenings and weekends are free of work obligations. I do love to stay busy and explore fun things to do in and around the city or I can snuggle at home with my Winnie and a good book. I have had double knee replacements so walking dogs can be a tad difficult if it is a long journey. My dog (Winnie) has graduated to not requiring her cage during the day and a fenced in yard which she loves chasing the frisbee and tennis balls. We live near a park and Winnie loves to explore the trails. We also have a rabbit (Chip) who was originally a gift for my son and quickly became mine. Chip has an area where he resides inside but loves to be hopping around the living room.
“Our pup and kitty LOVE Kaelin!! We’ve had her pet sit for the past 2 Christmas breaks and she’s been wonderful. Our dog is very high maintenance (kidney issues, IBS, and he’s blind) and it’s such a relief knowing he’s well taken care of while we’re away.”
“Lily was very friendly and was available rather last minute which made our lives so much easier! She was communicative and followed instructions perfectly. Would recommend her for any pet needs :)”
About: I have grown up my whole life with dogs from puppy to senior, as my parents both had dogs of their own and raised puppies. I am experienced with a wide variety of breeds from my time volunteering at the Fairfield Humane Society and have spent time pet sitting for many of my neighbors. I work remotely part time, so I set my own hours. This gives me ample time to spend with your best friend while you work or have other commitments to ensure everyone is happy and healthy. I have a fenced in backyard and am willing to cater my care to your dogs preferences from walk time to crate time and everything in between.
“Dajon was wonderful with Sadie. She suffers from severe anxiety & she was comfortable with him immediately. Dajon sends lots of updates & he was so flexible with my schedule. I am so grateful that I found him & I will definitely use him again. Thank you so much, Dajon!!”
“Zach was such a blessing to us. He was so understanding and flexible with our needs and our old doggies and kitties love him. He was attentive and thorough with all our millions of instructions for taking care of our geriatric Great Danes with many health issues. He also took care of some things last minute for us that I had forgotten to do. It was such a relief to find someone we could trust to stay with our boys. Thank you Zach ❤️”
“Justin took care of our poochers for a test night. Our one doggie takes a bit longer to warm up, and Justin was kind enough to do multiple meet and greets, and a test night. He's been patient, caring, and accommodating to get the furries comfortable. Couldn't recommend him enough!”
“Cody was amazing! It was his first time w our two dogs. One is a senior Pom mix on insulin and one is a puppy, Bernese Mountain dog. He came over twice before he was actually here staying at our house, for 1 week. Our dogs immediately loved him. We taught him how to give the shots to our senior dog and he did great! He kept in constant communication w texts and pics. We will get him again and continue to utilize him, as he was awesome!”
“Zachary was amazing! I had an 8-day trip for work, and he took such great care of my pups and my house. One of the dogs got a skin irritation that she stress-licked into a huge mess, and Zachary went above and beyond to find ways to help her. By the time I returned, it was almost all cleared up. All the check ins and videos and updates were so helpful and comforting. I know that they were in the best hands and had the greatest time with Zachary!”
“Madison was great! She took care of our dog, rabbit, and fish tanks for a week in our home and everything was in perfect shape when we came back. We got daily updates and photos of the animals and they all looked like they were having a great time. We will definitely have Madison back!”
“Trisha did a great job. Our animals loved her and she did a great job of communicating with us each day and sending photos. The house was also just as clean as when we left it. She did an awesome job and we will for certain be using her for our future trips.”
About: I have had dogs all my life and I have pet sit for many of family members for years. I also worked in a kennel for two summers. I also go to school for pre-vet so I work with animals all the time. At the moment I do not have a job so I have a ton of time to spend with your beloved pet. Wednesday and Thursday or hard for me at the moment because I take summer classes. I don’t have a pet at the moment so yours would not have to worry. I can easily crate if needed be and we have a huge yard for them to run around.
“Andrea was amazing with all three of my dogs. We have a puppy that we were afraid of having aggressive behavior since we were not home and he and the other dogs were so comfortable with her. It definitely helped to keep me at ease.”
About: I have had all kinds of animals growing up(cats and dogs)! I currently have a female golden retriever (Bella) who is spayed! She’s looking for play dates. 🫶🏼 I work 3 days a week as a nurse and can help watch your pets on my days off!! I can possibly do some nights also if I’m off a few days in a row. I have a female golden retriever. Smoke free home, I have 4 children that would enjoy playing with your pet! I have a fenced in back yard.
