Sierra did a great job. She did leave the cat poop in a grocery bag for a few days so when we came in the house didnt smell great. Otherwise she kept me in the loop every day, took pictures & sent & kept the house clean. I will most definitely use her again.

Eleana was such a life saver. She was so flexible and accepted my last minute booking quickly. I received pics and updates everyday, which was wonderful. Athena was recently diagnosed with Epilepsy and we were hesitant to leave her. She received her medicine twice a day and didn’t have any issues while we were gone. I highly recommend booking with Eleana. She gave our girl lots of love.

Allison took excellent care of our pets. She kept in constant touch with us while we were away. I was able to have fun on vacation and didn’t worry about my senior dog who can’t see or hear well. I will definitely use her again!

Karli stayed at my house and took care of my dog while I was out of town, and she did an absolutely amazing job. She treated my home with respect and my dog with so much love and attention. I received regular updates and photos that gave me total peace of mind the entire time I was away. My dog was calm, happy, and clearly well-cared for when I got back—which is all I can ask for! I will definitely book her again. Highly, highly recommend!

About: I don’t just “watch” your pets—I care for them like they’re my own. Every walk, every visit, and every overnight stay is filled with real attention, patience, and love. I take the time to learn each pet’s personality, routine, and needs so they feel safe, comfortable, and genuinely happy while you’re away. I currently offer dogsitting / dog walking plus cat care full time ! I walk at least 2-3 dogs a week and stay at someone’s house once or twice a month ! I care for them by give more than just a walk ! I offer the convenience, love and play time added to all of that !

Anika is the BEST! She made all my babies feel comfortable and took excellent care of them. She sent me a lot of pictures too! That really put my mind at ease - seeing how happy they were and knowing that Anika was there for them when I couldn't be. I 100% recommend Anika to anyone who is afraid to go out of town and leave their babies.... she is the best and your babies will love her!

About: I’ve grown up with pets my whole life and genuinely love all fur babies. I’m patient, gentle, and attentive, and I always treat every pet like it were my own. From playful pups to calm seniors, I make sure they feel safe, loved, and completely comfortable in my care. I have a flexible schedule as i will be a recent grad in December and am on the job hunt. I wouldn’t commit to something if i didn’t have the time. I am relaxed around pets no matter if it’s just going on a walk or playing with them for a long period of time! I would plan my day around caring for each pets needs. I follow your pet’s routine exactly and always prioritize safety, comfort, and calm. Whether in my home or yours, I provide a clean space, close supervision, and lots of love and updates.

About: I have loved animals ever since I was in elementary. I have had 5 Dogs, from a German Shepard to a little Yorkie Poodle mix. Currently I have 2 Guinea Pigs and 2 Leopard Geckos and a beautiful cat named karma. Family members and friends have asked me to look after their fur babies for days and entrusted them with me. I give my all when watching the fur babies and treat it as if they were mine. :) I am currently a full time college student, I am studying marine biology and plan to use that degree to go to a veterinarian School. While I may have classes in the morning and late afternoon, I have plenty of time to look after the beautiful fur babies you trust me with. When first entering an environment, it's important to take a mental note of any hazards that could be a danger to the animal. Any hazards being, loose metal wires they could chew, or foods that may be dangerous to them. Examining a new environment is also important. Always making sure to not have any allowed guests inside the customers house is very important part of great service as well, to instill that trust that the client has put in you for their furry loved one!

I would treat yours no differently! My three dogs are on an eating schedule and get regular walks so I have no problem sticking to your schedule for your babies.

About: I've been dogsitting for about 7 years and had the opportunity to meet and care for dogs of many sizes thanks to my volunteering experience through Companion Animal Alliance. I've cared for many different dog breeds including large breed dogs and breeds that need more intensive care like French Bulldogs. I'm currently Senior in college with few classes, so pet care is something that fits into my routine perfectly, be it walking your dog or housesitting. My goal is always to make sure that your pet feels just as comfortable and loved as you make them feel every day. I understand the stress associated with leaving your pet with someone new and I strive to stick to any routines to make both you and your fur baby as comfortable as possible.

About: I have taken care of many kinds of animals since I was 8. I have learned a ton from my Grandmother who is a veterinarian. I prioritize your pets' safety and I make sure I leave your home better than I have found it. I make sure your pets have fun and get lots of excrise while you are away! I prioritize your pets' schedules. I do have classes Monday to Friday from 7:30 to 2:35, but make sure that clients' pets are my priority right before and after class. I abide by any instructions that clients give me. Highly responsible making sure home is locked. I make sure pets are secure at all times and I am happy to discuss safety in more detail if clients have specific needs or concerns. I never take pets anywhere that clients have not given permission for. I don't have guests in clients' homes.
