1. Samantha L.
“This is Samantha's second series of visits with Cameo. Samantha really has bonded well with Cameo. She plays with her and brushes her and sends me multiple pictures of their visits. Samantha is a pleasure to work with and I do trust her to take good care of Cameo when I am away. I very highly recommend Samantha and I will call on her again the next time I travel.”
2. Jared A.
“Jared is easy to work with and reliable! We always reach out to him first to watch our pups.”
3. Laura G.
“Laura is fantastic and super awesome with Tüks! This last visit was kind of spur of the moment and Laura was super accommodating. We highly recommend Laura as does Tüks. Thank you!!!”
4. Danielle S.
“The Venn diagram of Dani’s level of responsibility/reliability compared to her love of animals is a circle. You want your pet to be cared for with the same attention to detail and thoroughness as Leslie Knope? Dani is your person. You want your pet to be safe protected at all costs with the fierceness of a secret service agent? Dani is your person. You want your pet to be doted on with the love and adoration of a very present grandparent? Dani is your person. You cannot go wrong here folks. Unrelated to animals but a Testament to her skills and personality: Dani is always my first answer for “who would you want on your zombie apocalypse team”… she’s level headed, common sense, dependable, resilient, medical knowledge, ecological knowledge, a great leader etc etc. If she could confidently take on the zombie apocalypse, this position will literally be a walk in the park. (In terms of actual reference, i have a dog and cat that she has cared for for me for almost a decade) Take my word for it, your pet will be in GREAT hands!”
5. Joyce L.
“Joyce did such a great job watching our cats! She did drop in visits and send so many amazing videos and pictures. We felt so comfortable knowing they were safe and take of:)”
6. Kevin & Inez W.

7. Hannah C.
“Hannah is a fabulous pet sitter! She watches my 16 year old brown tabby whenever I am out of town. Hannah always takes the time to socialize and play with her in addition to making sure she has fresh water and food, as well as a clean litterbox. Hannah loves all animals, she is great with dogs, too! She goes the extra mile to make sure your pet is comfortable and has whatever they need.”

10. Morgan B.
“Morgan is my reliable go-to when I need help looking after my own dogs, and the occasional foster pup. She is always on-time and does a great job, and my dogs are happy to see her!”
11. Kasey B.
“Kasey took great care of our cat while we were away! She came over to meet him beforehand and was prepared with a list of questions; she’s clearly an experienced pet-sitter and we felt very comfortable leaving our cat in her care. She spent plenty of time with him while we were gone and was even willing to take him outside on his leash and harness. We came home to a happy cat ? Kasey was also very accommodating to last-minute changes in our schedule, and sent us lots of fun photos of our cat!”
12. Hannah F.
“Our cats have never been happier that when Hannah is taking care of them! She spends quality enrichment time with each of them in addition to just giving them food and clearing their litterbox, and always sends plenty of photo updates. She's finagled them to the vet when they need to go, and they still think she's the best. Your pets are in the best possible hands!”

About: Growing up with dogs, I've always had a love for taking care of and making sure all dogs - big or small - feel loved, safe, and comfortable. At previous places of work, I often watched my coworkers dogs in their homes while they were away. Whether its couch snuggles or early morning walks, I'm here for it! My ability to really listen to and hear what a dog needs sets me apart from other sitters; I firmly believe that there is so much more to a dog than people give them credit. They are such intelligent individuals with a raw sense of joy that it would be an absolute honor to get to spend time watching your furry friend! This fall, I am between full-time job commitments and my schedule is fairly flexible in terms of when I can take care of your furry friend! I am otherwise recording my first studio album - with ukulele and my voice so that is pretty exciting. While my current apartment does not allow me to board animals, I am more than happy to stay in your home and care for your pet! As I mentioned, I cannot currently offer boarding services -- but I am eager to help out and take care of a pet in a client's home (check-ins/overnights). Not only will I be respectful of the space itself, but I will also be sure to attune to the needs of the dog in their home as I am a guest while I am there. This includes learning all necessary information head of time about the home, how to access needed things, and asking any lingering questions so that there is no question of your pet's comfort and safety in your time away.
19. Samantha H.
About: My family had a couple cats growing up and I've cat sat / cared for cats over the years for neighbors. My fiancé and I both hope to get a cat or dog in the near future so any experience and exposure to caring for an animal would be really helpful. I’ve been around dogs plenty but not specifically cared for them other than through association with friends. Love every moment. I am very flexible right now and have availability during the week Monday to Thursday at this time and will update as my schedule evolves. I hope to offer the utmost trust and reliability to my clients while creating a safe, caring and fun environment for their beloved pets. I enjoy hiking and long walks, so would definitely love an exercise buddy to help me achieve my step goals.

“Kaya was responsible and good at communicating & sending pictures of my cats when I was gone for the weekend. I’d definitely book her again.”
