“Kiley was fantastic with our dogs! She was consistent with checking on them in the time frame requested, did a great job letting us know if there were any questions that came up, and gave helpful updates with each check-in.”
About: I’ve had a pup in my household my whole life and I began walking and dog sitting for others in 2020. I have taken classes on pet and animal CPR. I am very caring and will taken great and extra care of your animal! Currently working a part time job and I am about to start a second one. I’m available for your pets in the mornings and early afternoons on weekdays with the possibility on weekends depending on work. On days that I am off I can accommodate multiple walks and/ or check ins. I have a medium sized dog who’s 2 years old at home, as well as a small 15lb pup. I listen well to instructions and take precautions if needed. I do not offer services for your dog to come to my home, however I will care for your dogs with the same quality.
“Naila was dependable and professional but…most of all…..she cared about my baby as much as I do. She kept me updated on everything going on with my Sadie and sent me lots of pictures of them snuggling and playing together. I would definitely recommend Naila and will be using her services again.”
“I cannot say enough good things about Krystal or adequately express how grateful I am for her. She is a professional but she also truly loves our fur babies and cares for them. I’m not sure I would travel if I could not book her to care for our cats while we’re gone!”
“Maronda was very accommodating and fast to respond to my last-minute request. She was very diligent about her scheduled arrival time. I much appreciated the video updates she’d send after each visit. Our pup was very happy with Maronda’s care. We will absolutely use Maronda’s help again in the future.”
“I have never used Rover and was very hesitant to leave our 7 cats for nearly 2 weeks. Upon meeting Jamie, I immediately felt that our cats would be in good hands. She always sent photos (even of the cats who were hiding) and responded timely if I had questions. Thank you so much for taking care of our babies!”
About: I have taken care of dogs of different breeds and ages. I love taking dogs for walks and playing fetch and of course for going to potty. For house sitting, I have house sat for months at a time for a couple who would go out of town several times through out the year. I am very careful to make sure that the house is kept the same way as when the owner left. I clean up after myself. I am available during the day and evenings if needed. My only unavailable day would be Sundays but Sunday evenings after 8 pm I am available. I just have the one cat and she is indoor only so I do not have a fenced in area so my house is not suitable for cat or dog sitting.
“Our vacation would not have been the same without Angela. I knew Buster was being so well cared for. She was always there within the time we discussed and sent so many photos. I looked forward to them everyday. I would highly recommend Angela! I know we will be using her services again.”
“Erik was great! My dog loved him & had so much fun playing with him! Very responsive, sent many pictures and videos, and truly loves animals! I felt completely stress free knowing my dog was in great hands!”
About: I’ve had animals my entire life and love taking care of them. The unconditional love and understanding an animal gives is unlike anything else. Earning their trust is something I take pride in. Since the beginning of Covid, I’ve pivoted to pet sitting and housesitting to earn a living. It brings me such joy everyday! I do pet sitting full time, so unless I’m already booked, I’m available to take care of your fur baby! Please let me know your needs. I will treat your pet as if they were my own! I understand that your animal is not simply a “pet”, but a cherished and important family member. If there is anything specific you would like done for your fur baby, please just ask!
About: I’ve taken care of many animals- dogs, cats, chickens and reptiles- since I was 10. Many family, friends and sometimes neighbors have asked me to care for their furry companions. My fall semester hasn’t started yet and I don’t have many plans for this month, so I have plenty of more time to spend with your pets! I have a big fenced yard for your baby to roam around. I also have 3 lovely dogs and 2 friendly cats to make the sleepover more comfortable.
About: I have owned two dogs, a cat, and a few fish back home in California. I have had experience with clipping nails, giving fluids, cleaning litter boxes, and the such. I am a medical student and have extra time throughout this semester! I have been missing having a pet of my own, so being able to take care of your precious animal would mean so much to me! I have an apartment of my own, there are several open green spaces that allow for dogs to play and use the restroom. I do not currently have any pets so any animal I board would have my full attention.
“Ashtan was the best with my babies. She took care of them like they were her own. She was extremely patient with them since it was the first time they met her. At the end they loved her. I will definitely hire her again 😁”
About: I have owned and loved a jack russel terrier from 6 months up until his passing at 17 years old. I currently have 3 beautiful cats. I assist friends, family, and neighbors with theirs pet care needs and advice as well. I am currently taking classes online for my associates degree so that does not interfere with my availability. I am working 30 hours a week at Target. Usually Tuesday through Saturday 8 - 4pm. My schedule does fluctuate, but is easily adjustable. I have a large fenced in yard at my mom’s place and her two friendly medium sized dogs if your dog wants company. I am happy to stay at a clients home with their pet as much as needed. I love going for long walks at Moss Rock or taking the dogs to Red Mountain dog park.

Christina would be a valuable addition to your business, and I wholeheartedly recommend her. Sincerely, Joey Jones”

Jen G.
“Jen was fantastic. She has stayed in our home and taken care of our dog (a beloved but fairly high maintenance Corgi) and two cats numerous times. She was the best sitter we have ever had! She asked lots of good questions before her first stay, which made me feel confident in hiring her. That confidence proved to be well-placed. She went above and beyond. She sent numerous pictures, videos, and updates, and in each everyone seemed to be having an absolute ball. She perfectly followed the routine and requests we left. It was clear she genuinely liked my pets and enjoyed being around them as much as they enjoyed her. Gizmo was sincerely worn out since Jen played with him so frequently. Jen is patient, kind, and knowledgeable. Additionally, she left the house just like I left it, clean and organized, and even gave attentive care to our plants. I plan on hiring her anytime I travel and fully recommend her and her services. You and your fur family will be thrilled.”
