“Kelsey was amazing with our dog Winston! He gets nervous about staying with other people and she was very understanding and catered to his needs. Would definitely recommend her!”

“Samantha was absolutely amazing with my cat! She went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect while I was away. She was reliable, communicative, attentive, and clearly truly cares about animals. I received updates and photos that gave me total peace of mind, and I came home to a happy, relaxed kitty and everything well cared for. I would absolutely book with Samantha again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and compassionate sitter. Thank you again, Samantha!”

“Penny and the whole family are super sweet and perfect to watch your dog my dog Sherman warmed up very quickly and even slept with her teenage son. Definitely will use them again because I have busy work weeks at times. Sherman is a bit much sometimes when he sees other dogs a bit reactive but Penny kept an eye on him and never went out without his leash and collar and made sure all dogs weren't out. He had a blast came home and ran around like a puppy again. Will definitely be using her again.”

“Joy took care of my 6 yr old poodle mix on very short notice so i could make a very important week-long personal trip. She took right over and took excellent care of a picky eater, but lovable 10 lb dog, whom is my baby. She sent me photos while i was gone to let me know how she was doing, and so i would not worry. I would recommend Joy. She obviously loves dogs. Edie M.”

About: I have loved dogs since I was a child. The previous work was also related to dogs, doing pet grooming in a pet hospital. He knows a lot about dogs and can handle many unexpected situations. The home currently has a lot of toys for dogs and a large yard. Take them for a walk every day. When I have free time on weekends, I take my dog for a walk in the park, and I take my dog out for a walk every morning and afternoon. Dogs are regularly dewormed. Will prepare common medicines for dogs to prevent emergencies. Whenever I go home, I sanitize before entering. They will also clean the kennel and bathe them on a daily basis. I take them out for a walk and run in the morning. I can see such a cute dog every morning when I open my eyes, which makes me feel very happy and especially cured. And they are all friendly. Very friendly to people. Take them for a walk every day to satisfy their consumption throughout the day.

My goal is to create a calm, comfortable, and positive experience for every pet in my care:) I work from home, so I get to enjoy a full hour lunch break to relax or recharge, & even could let a dog out, and play with your sweet dog while on lunch. On weekends, I’m usually out walking and making the most of my free time outdoors, chilling inside watching Netflix, and could possibly be cuddled on the couch with your doggie! I can take your dog out as many times as needed, a lot of cuddles, & sometimes even playing around with toys. Pets are allowed on furniture, and bed. We love doggies!
