“Stasia took great care of our dogs and our home while we were away! The house looked exactly as we left it when we returned. She was great at communication before and while we were gone as well. We have 3 GSPs and they seemed very well cared for by her.”
“Melissa was wonderful with Buddy. The previsit really helped making things go more smoothly when she arrived to care for him. We definitely will have her back. Thanks Melissa for taking such great care of Bud!”
“Rhiannon is a wonderful caretaker and human. She communicates clearly, is patient, compassionate, and follows through. It was clear that my dog felt loved, comfortable, and well cared for, and her timely updates gave me peace of mind (he is a senior dog). Thank you, Rhiannon - Raj surely hopes to see you again!”
“Savanah is amazing! She stayed with our two cats for a week & made our whole trip worry-free! Our cats adore her, & she sent regular pictures & video updates, as well as kept the house running. Her communication is fantastic, & I never felt concerned about anything at home while we traveled. I will definitely hire Savanah again. She feels like family now now. What a wonderful experience! Thank you, again, Savanah!”
“Dont really want to extole Laurie's work here because I want to keep her the best secret ever, but that wouldn't be fair. She's kind, smart, conscientious, flexible, my dogs LOVE her. She's great! The house was tidy and her communication was just right, not too much but enough to give me confidence that all was going well. I'm going to book her again any chance I get.”
“I thank Marcus for his time over the holidays. I had wished for more check-ins and photos as the trip progressed. He was very accommodating when our travel plans changed.”
“Great communication and she did a wonderful job taking care of our pets and home. Our dog and 2 cats were instantly very comfortable and she did a fantastic job keeping us posted on how they were doing during the stay. I highly recommend.”
“Syanne did an amazing job taking care of our 3 fur babies. She was so patient with them and won them over easily. We were able to enjoy our trip knowing they were receiving great care. Syanne was always available and gave updates while we were away. We will definitely use her services again!”
About: Having 3 fur-babies of my own I know how important our animals are to us pet parents! Dogs can be rowdy! But I’m grateful to have trained them at such a young age and how important walking and socializing them is! I’ve had my doggies since their baby ages with all of them now being 4-8 years old it’s important they still get the care and attention they need I work full time but my doggies eat at designated times to keep their diet and physical health as best as possible. Walking them helps not only keep them fit but even helps me get my steps in too! Usually 30 minutes to and hour a walk a day does them good since they have a big backyard they play in all day long too! Due to having doggies of my own I don’t offer dog sitting just for them comfort of my dogs. But I’m always willing to walk yours !
About: I've been a pet ownee since the age of ten. (Seems like they own us rather than the other way around :-) I've had some great companions over the years including our current dog: Norah Bones. She's 13 and may be the happiest dog on the planet. She's at least in the top ten. There's usually been a cat or two in my house connected to my wife, kids or roommates that I care for as well. Friends have asked me to care, board and travel with their pets more often now that I'm semi-retired. And it seems I'm a pet-whisperer of sorts according to friends. Their pets have always bonded with me sooner than most people they know. I'm traveling often and around the country more now. Denver in July. May be in your area soon. My only concern is when I return home and my dog, Norah wants to know all about the new scents and who I've been seeing. Happy to work out details for your pet's care as needed. Morning and evening walks/outdoor pee breaks would be standard. I'm a retired math/science teacher and can learn any special care needs your pet requires. Also have friends in Atlanta that are well trained in pet care and vet tech services.
About: I've had dogs since I was 5 and have worked with them for the past 2 and a half years. I've trained several puppies, taken care of my own elderly pups when they had arthritis, cancer, and other illnesses that come with old age. I am fully committed to caring for your pets so long as it does not interfere with other clients. Anytime even 2am if need be. My goal is to make your pet feel as safe, comfortable, and loved as possible in the absence of their favorite humans (you). I always treat my clients and their fur babies with respect and care.
“Kat did a terrific job watching our dog and cat while we went out of town for a week! We got lots of cute pictures and updates and came home to happy pets and a clean house. We will definitely be booking Kat again in the future.”
“We had Esperita house sit for us while we were on holiday for a week. She did such an amazing dog updating us everyday that we always knew our dogs were doing well and being taken care of. She also took great care of our house that it looked just like we left it. There are dog sitters and there are dog sitters, and Esperita is one of the top tier that we will no doubt continue to use. Thank you so much!”
About: I’ve been taking care of pets, both my own and my family members, for 8 years. I was 10 years old when I got my first dog and he is the most calm natured and loving dog I’ve ever met. My family members regularly ask me to pet sit for them when they are busy or go out of town. I’m a high school senior and I need to raise money to afford college tuition. I get out of school at 1:30 every day and am free on weekends so I will almost always have time to care for your little babies :) I have a 1.5 acre fenced in yard so any pets will have lots of space to run and play. If they are allowed, I’ll give them treats. We have many toys for cats and dogs so they will always have something to entertain them.
About: Caring for all animals. Fur babies large and small. Young and old alike. Barn animals… horses,mini horses,goats chickens and donkeys. Of course your kitty too. We do reptiles. Finding one’s self with little to do after retirement, caring for animals just fit in so well and what a stress reliever these fur babies are. 😄 I have double fenced in areas, with all sizes of houses. My preference is to care for animals in their own environments. They are Less stressed at home.😉

Tambra A.
“Tamara has taken care of my critters several times. She stays at my home and cares for my very shy Airedale plus 2 active Dales. She also gives tender care to my 17 year cat. Besides my special needs inside critters she tends to my 4 horses and keeps the wild bird feeders filled. I appreciate the attention she gives as she is in my home the entire time.”
