“Emily was just wonderful! Our birds took to her right away. She provided excellent care, sent tons of pictures and communicated frequently. She was so attentive and caring, provided a lot of interaction and took care of them so well. They just loved her. We will definitely use Emily again!”

“We’d used Bonnie for over-night pet care. Bonnie was attentive to the needs of our dogs and dependable. When something unusual came up, she was able to make things work. We plan to use her in the future.”

“Linda stepped in on very short notice after my original sitter canceled, and she was fantastic. She took great care of my fur babies, followed my instructions closely, and even left the house cleaner than I left it. When I got home, the dogs were happy, relaxed, and clearly well exercised. I’d absolutely trust Linda again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable sitter.”

About: I recently graduated with a degree in veterinary technology! I have worked in clinics for three years and have experience with all dog breeds and special needs. I am currently working at a clinic during the day on weekdays. I can check on your pet before/after work and on my lunch break as needed and free all day on weekends. I love spending time with animals so I will always try to make time for your pet! I have 5 dogs at home that I care for as well as a few farm animals and cats. I want to give your pet the best care for them so whatever works for them works for me!
“Excellent communication, daily updates, easy to work with, and my boys were clearly very well taken care of. Helen will absolutely be my first call when I need someone to watch my dogs. 10/10 recommend.”

“Kayla did an amazing job accommodating all of our requests and made us feel very comfortable leaving our boys with her! She kept us updated and sent us all the pictures we asked for. The dogs were so comfortable I’m not even sure they realized we were gone. We will definitely be using her in the future!”

“First time to have Justin take care of my two dogs. They were well cared for, really appreciated not having to leave their home and very happy. Justin is friendly, listens and follows instructions and dependable. I will use his services many times in the future.”
About: I LOVE my doggos. I have had a dog in my life since I was 4, large and medium are typically my bread and butter. I know the little dogs can be timid but I can snuggle them until they tolerate me 😬. I am a millennial dog/cat mom, so you know I love scritches, belly rubs, snuggles, and giving treat-o’s. My dog doesn’t fetch but I’ll play with yours til the cows come home! I worked for a dog groomer as the bathing attendant for two summers as a kid, so if your babies need a quick bath while I’m there, depending on how they can handle it with a new person, I am available. I’m versed in giving pets medication, so no need to worry if your pupper needs a little something to help them stay healthy! I work from home full time currently, but if I need to leave during the day to go check on your fur baby/they’re on a bathroom/medication schedule, my boss is very lenient and lets me make up time. Walks would primarily only be available in the afternoons/evenings to avoid the heat around here. I am very organized and like to write down any rules/quirks/schedules that your pet needs to be on. I’m also not afraid to ask/answer questions, so if you’re open to conversations via the app, I’m your girl! There are pet walking areas within minutes of my home that I can take your pet to, if you feel comfortable with that, or I can walk them around the neighborhood, also.
“Sherry was amazing!! I love her and more importantly my dogs loved her! She was even cool and calm when there was a little spat!! And I love that she loves my dogs! I completely recommend her and I will use her again!”

“Mary did an amazing job taking care of our senior dog, Chestnut! She followed all of our care instructions extremely well and was so attentive to his needs. She sent regular updates and pictures, which gave us so much peace of mind, and even took him on a walk—something he absolutely loves. We also came home to a house that was cleaner than when we left it, which was such a nice surprise. Mary was on time, easy to communicate with, and truly went above and beyond. We would absolutely recommend her and will definitely be working with her again!”

“It was so hard for me to trust a stranger with my precious boi but Leigha made it easy when I was away. She showed up a half hour early and waited in her car to make sure she was on time since I had an early flight. She sent tons of pics and videos and gave me wonderful tips and feedback from all her experience with dogs. This showed how much interest and attention she had on my little man. Most importantly, my baby loved her which was apparent in all the videos. He wasn’t stressed at all when I got home but he slept hard the next day which means he was stimulated. I feel very lucky to have found Leigha.”

“Kinzley was great with our Joscoe! He loves her and we know she spoiled him while we were gone. We felt very comfortable with her staying in our home and caring for our big boy. Highly recommend her for your house sitting/pet sitting needs.”

Sarah has been great! She took care of a total of four cats which belonged to me and my friend. She is very friendly with the cats, sent timely photos and videos (which was a relief), understood the needs of our pets and understands the traditional as well as modern cat appliances which was a plus. Had a truly amazing experience.

I cannot say enough great things about Emily! Our Rex, feel in love with her and he normally is very shy. She was so polite and on time. She was extremely gentle with our Rex. I believe anyone who chooses her will not be disappointed. Your animal will be in wonderful hands, Don and Sylvie Stewart and Rex too!
