“Jharasen was kind, communicative, and treated my dog well! He came home happy and well exercised. There were other dogs around for him to play with, which I think helped keep his separation anxiety well managed.”
“Brittany was as sweet as could be--and side note: ADORABLE twin toddlers! ;-) Apparently Buster and the tots kept each other busy to the point of everyone napping by the end of the visit. I was visiting from out of town for a family event, and if/when I go again, I'll definitely leave Buster with Brittany. Thank you so much, Brittany!”
“Amazing! Sent pictures and updated frequently. Was very flexible and made everything so easy!! Definitely will be working with her again in the future. Highly recommend.”
About: With many years of experience as a veterinary technician in both shelter and clinic settings, I bring a deep understanding of animal behavior, health, and care to every pet I work with. My hands-on experience ranges from administering medications and handling emergencies to comforting anxious pets and supporting their emotional well-being. I’ve worked with animals of all sizes, temperaments, and medical needs, making me exceptionally well-prepared for pet sitting, dog walking, and providing attentive, professional care. Your pets will be in the hands of someone who treats them with the same compassion, patience, and expertise that I’ve developed over years in the field! I love being able to meet other people's fur babies and make them feel safe and happy when under my care.❤️ I am currently only working two days a week at my veterinary clinic, which leaves me with a fairly open and flexible schedule. This allows me plenty of time to dedicate to pet sitting, dog walking, and providing reliable, attentive care for your pets when you need it most. When caring for pets in my home or a client’s home, I prioritize their comfort, safety, and routine. I make sure to follow any specific instructions regarding feeding, medications, exercise, and behavior. In my home, I provide a clean, pet-friendly environment with plenty of attention, playtime, and a calm atmosphere. When caring for pets in their own home, I maintain their regular routine to reduce stress, keep their space tidy, and make sure they feel secure and loved while their owners are away. My background as a veterinary technician means I’m also confident handling any special needs or medical situations that may arise.
“Heather was very communicative about our Nova girl, she took good care of her and made sure she was loved while we were away! We are very happy and will definitely have our Nova be watched by her in the future!”
“My fur baby Chloe enjoyed her stay with Rebecca! She communicated well, had clean and open home, she even gave Chloe a private room all to herself to make her comfortable. Photos and video was sent to me to keep us updated on how she was doing, all around great experience. She also cleaned her crate for me and gave our girl a good brushing, would definitely recommend her! Thanks again Rebecca!”
“Booking with Aleicia was the best choice! I'm always hesitant leaving my fur babies, but I won't be in the future! My dog stayed with her over spring break and I was afraid she wouldn't want to come home with all the fun she had!! I got multiple pictures daily which is reassuring. Aleicia was very quick to respond both with while trying to request a booking and during the stay.”
“Chino was well taken care of while I was away. Chino is shy and when I picked her up she did not seem shy at all with them, especially with Shannon's lovely daughter. I would recommend her and she also has a privacy fence surrounding her backyard, which put me at ease also.I would definitely ask for her services again!”

“She had a separate room for our 3 kitties with cat tree and litter box. It wasn't crowded. She came in and checked in on them a few times a day. They were just being anti social because of moving. She was a caring individual. She kept the litter boxes clean and was wonderful with communication and pictures.”
