“There was some unexpected bumps that come up during week stay but Lauren was so gracious and she took Twix to her place. She sent updates everyday with pictures of him. Our somewhat picky dog became a dog that is more laid back, enjoyed their cat and and made many new friends. Lauren gave him the best care along with her family. Twix was so sad to leave their home, he had the best vacation.”

“This lady is awesome. She took great care of my boys and my other pets as well (sugar gliders and turtle). She was responsive and gave daily updates with pictures. I also had so much appreciation for her because on our way back from our trip, our flight was canceled, and she was able to still pop in on the crew and make sure they were ok and fed, we couldn’t have been more thankful for her. She will be at the top of our list should we have to go away again and I would highly recommend her if you need someone to looks after your fur babies. Thank you Katie!!”

“Victoria was accommodating and communicative. Very friendly and my pup loved her. Sent pictures and updated me every day (I was gone for a week). Thank you for being good to Myla and me!”

“Kameron was great! We can’t wait to use her again in the future! She provided plenty of photos and when we got home everything was how we left it! Champ was a happy boy!!”

About: What I believe sets me apart from other sitters would be that I have always had a love for any animal, and have had animals of all kinds through them whole life so I know the struggles and the blessings. I’ve had 5 dogs my whole life, 1 cat, and 3 bunnies, along with some others that we had for a little bit. All of my dogs I have raised since they were puppies, except for one that was older, for the puppies, I have finally learnt the keys to potty train them, and always ensuring they’re eating and having naps to grow, I love the puppy stage but they go by so fast so I make sure to make the most out of it. As for elder dogs, I’ve only had the chance to experience one, he was given to us by the son of the lady that owned him, unfortunately, she would leave him outside all the time whether it was raining or super hot, didn’t love him, and would not feed him right, so we took the opportunity to take him. At first, he was very scared of us and anything, didn’t want to eat, was always hiding, and would often try to bite us if we tried petting, but thankfully, he eventually started to be more open with us and we finally got him to feel safe with us. I believe Pet care fits into my daily life because I only work a few days a week at my studio job, and I believe dog sitting, or cat sitting, would be the perfect job to do on my days off because I love helping out, specially if I get to go have fun with any animals, I currently own my bunny coco, so I spend a lot of time with her but I can always go and make sure your pet is well fed, and play with them for a while so they don’t get lonely or desperate! I’d love to sit animals! I unfortunately can’t take care of any pets in my house since my dogs don’t get along with any other dogs or pets, so I can’t provide that service.
“Brad did a great job staying with our dog in our home. She is very new to our family (adopted < 2 weeks ago), so we were a little nervous leaving her overnight. Brad came in with confidence, brought all of his own supplies for his stay, and was great about sending us pictures to help us know Josie was doing just fine while we were away. He is a real pro at this!”

“Ashton was a great sitter and met our needs last minute even. She was very communicative and updated us a few times a day on our dogs with pictures and their various activities. Our dogs are very used to someone being home a large portion of the day and she stayed home with them the entire time which was very appreciated. We will definitely be booking her again!”

“We feel so fortunate to have found Susan. She cared for our two boys as if they were her own and they took to Susan as if they’d been around her their entire life. We couldn’t have had a better experience. We definitely will be using Susan whenever we go away.”

About: I've cared for and trained dogs for over 10 years, both my own and others. I've walked and watched dogs for multiple people I have over a year of experience working with dogs in a daycare group setting. I'm currently working a flexible self made schedule. Pet care is something I can easily fit into my week and something I enjoy doing very much. I've worked with all sorts of animals and have experience in giving them everything they need both mentally and physically. I have no problem spending extra time making sure your pet is happy and fulfilled after a visit.
About: I have had many dogs throughout my life from Boston terriers to bulldogs to Great Danes. I currently have two Great Danes, so i can pretty much handle any dog. I love big dogs and any breed of dog. I am a big dog person and will take good care of your dogs. I wouldn’t want my dogs treated poorly so I would treat your dogs as my own. I currently work remotely, so I am very flexible and can do about anything. I can walk dogs, dog sit, house sit, or anything else needed. I currently work remotely so as long as I can bring my laptop, I’m available anytime! Short notice requests are always welcome, and I shouldn’t have issues with scheduling. I will care for your dogs just as I would take care of mine! I want them to feel comfortable as whole as you while you’re away!
“Daniel was great with the fur babies. He was very responsive and sent lots of pictures. Both babies are long haired and he cleaned up all the leaves they brought in. He left the house cleaner then when he arrived.”

About: I have been taking care of a wide range of pets for the past five years. Whether for friends, family or new clients I have taken care of dogs, cats, birds, and reptiles! Rover is currently a full-time job while I’m part-time security guard for DSI Security. I was already doing pet services before/during the pandemic, so I like making connections through this application for more clients. I will be able to provide services accordingly with my schedule around the clock and care for your pet(s) whether it’s overnight sitting, walking or daily drop-ins! I can balance between DSI Security and my days off. The most important thing is making sure pets remain comfortable when you need to get away for a few days. A meet and greet prior to a service ensures this as I am able to become familiar with your pet(s) and how your day to day routine is for them.
About: I’ve care for and stayed and watched over my uncle, sisters dogs and and they’ve been in good hands I’ll feed, walk and play with them and love them like they are my own dogs and cats I work 4 days a week 10 hour shifts and off on Fridays and the weekend so. When I get off during the week I can go feed and walk your animals with my son and I not staying there with them.. If they stay out in your house I’ll watch them carefully so the don’t have any accidents in the house or get in anything they shouldn’t.. I’ll do what y’all Prefer me to I’ll follow y’all directions so the animals are happy during y’all are away.
About: I have been around animals for as long I can remember. I’ve helped take care of many dogs/cats from all ages. I have pet-sat for elderly dogs that have special needs (I.e. diabetes) and even the smallest of pups! I work full time - however my schedule allows me to be available for drop ins, walks, or even house sitting. We can definitely make something work! A pets safety is #1 to me, I always have an eye on them even when it’s not needed. I am very big on time management, so if something specific is needed for your pet at a certain time, I will always be right on the dot!
“Emily was fabulous! My dogs loved her from the second she met them. She gave updates each day & they were well taken care of! We are so happy to have found her & will be using her when we go on future trips!”

About: I consider myself a person who has a very friendly way with pets. I take care of their needs and I am constantly attentive to their walks and any instructions given by the owner. If your pet needs any special care, just let me know; with the proper instructions, I can provide excellent care. I currently have a job, but I can choose which days to work and which days to dedicate to your pet, so there's no problem there. Rest assured, I'll be able to pay attention to your pet and play with them, and I dedicate time every day to physical activity. I would love to take your pet for a walk in a nearby park. Depending on the service required, I can also come to your home to provide care. We could have a chat and discuss your pet's needs.
“Angie did an excellent job taking care of my boys! She sent many photos and updated me during her stay. She definitely gave them the care that they needed and loved.”

We had a last minute cancellation. We found Lauren and she was so accommodating to fit us in for house sitting. She came to meet us and our dog in advance. She stayed in constant contact and responded quickly. If there were any adjustments to the schedule she checked in with us immediately to see if it would work. Would use again!
Savannah is absolutely amazing! She’s such a sweetheart & has great knowledge & experience with many dogs & breeds. We felt extremely comfortable leaving our 3 girls with her for a few days while we went away. She followed all “rules” this dog mama has & she took care of our girls like they were her own. They were comfortable with her & we will certainly use Savannah again when we are in need of her services!
