“Burgandy is an amazing pet sitter. She has watched my 5 dogs and 2 birds on a few occasions, and they are always happy, loved, and well-cared for.

“Process was super easy. Megan responded very quickly right from the start and throughout the stay. We worked out an arrangement I think we were both happy with. She is very friendly and has such an honest and reliable demeanor that I immediately felt comfortable leaving my pooches in her care. Megan sent pictures and little update messages with almost every visit so I could see that my pups were safe and happy. GREAT experience and I would definitely book with Megan again in the future.”

10. Claire H.
“Claire is a wonderful animal caregiver! In addition to their own array of animals, they have cared for my cat Patrick since he was a kitten, and he is absolutely obsessed with them, if that tells you anything about their demeanor. They have also loved my family's senior puppies with such gentle care, as well as my friend's young deaf dog, who is crazy and difficult to control, if you don't know how to connect with him. They care so much, not getting upset at something like an accident on the floor, or an angry yip because you touched a sensitive spot, they still speak calmly and interact with empathy, like you would caring for any other member of the family! No special need or personality quirk is too big. They just want the best for your furry family member, and it shows! Let them love on your pets for you, when you can't be there!”
11. Lilli J.
About: I’ve taken care of animals my whole life. I got my start young at five when I met my first pet, a pit-bull puppy named Ammo. I taught him basic commands, like sit, speak, and shake. I taught him how to walk with me, not against me. While watching him make progress, I learned to adore caring and training for pets. Over the course of the last 12 years, I have been caring for family and friends’ pets. They’re animals have given me experience in caring for senior pets, as well as, pets who are nearing the end of their journeys. Along with experience with older pets, I had opportunities to care for sick animals. Through these opportunities, I learned how to spot signs of sickness, and more importantly, spot signs of immediate or soon medical attention. I am a dedicated pet caregiver, available any day of the week. I like to walk often on my free time, so walking with your furry friend wouldn’t be much of a change than what I do regularly. I prefer to be in my home by dark so an overnight wouldn’t take me away from anything:)! I have a spacious, one bedroom apartment with a lawn surrounding the home. I do potty breaks every 1-2 hours, depending on the dog. I have a spare litter box in home and I deep clean it in between every client. When in my home, if you tell me there’s a nail clipping that needs to be done or a bath, it shall be done with plenty of encouragement throughout. I like to play and cuddle with them too:). While in your home, I will look out for any messes or accidents made by your pet, and promptly clean them. I‘ll come by every 2 hours for potty breaks and to refill water. After potty breaks and/or refills, I will stay with your pet for 10 minutes to assess their emotional well being as to let you know how they’re doing through your absence.

20. Kelsey B.
“I cannot recommend Kelsey enough! She took care of my two cats and dog multiple times over the last year, and her service exceeded all my expectations. From the beginning, Kelsey was professional, communicative, and friendly. She made sure to get all the details about my pets’ routines, dietary needs, and quirks, which gave me peace of mind. During my trips, I received regular updates, including photos and videos, showing how happy and well-cared-for my pets were. Kelsey even went the extra mile by tidying up the litter area and bringing in my mail! It was such a relief knowing my pets were in loving and capable hands. I came back to find them relaxed and happy.”
