“Harley did a wonderful job taking care of our dogs. They are very active and need to have a lot of activity to be satisfied. Harley spent a lot of time bringing them outdoors and playing with them. She clearly loves dogs and cares for them well. She is also very responsive and a pleasant person to work with. Highly recommended.”
“Alec and Buddha were awesome! The communication, videos, and pictures while we were gone provided a great level of comfort. Alec also did some work with training our puppy during his stay AND we know she had a fun time while we were away - they definitely worked hard and played harder! And as an added bonus, the house was perfectly clean when we returned! Looking forward to booking Alec again in the near future.”
About: I have over 18 years of experience house and animal sitting from overnights to up to 6 weeks in duration; caring for not only dogs but also horses (full boarding barn to a couple of pasture horses), cats, fish, rabbits, goats, chickens, etc. I know what it's like to worry about my pets when I'm away, so I strive to give top notch care, follow all instructions, and have fun with your dog! All while keeping you updated with pictures/texts on how they're doing. I am happy to provide most any dog/house sitting arrangement, walking/visit or boarding. At our country home we have a peaceful and fun environment and private large field that is kept mowed. Your dog will be supervised very closely. Non smoking home. Thank you for considering me; I hope you have a great day! I am a stay at home mom to one and I am home most or all of the day. We are very flexible but also stay on schedule and can accommodate your dog's routine. We live in the country and have ample space for private walks as well as a large mowed field. I supervise very closely and am diligent about keeping your dog as safe as possible on leash while still having fun and exercising. I will feed and take dog out following all instructions.
About: I have lived with animals of all kinds for as long as I remember, ever since I was about 5 I would help my parents feed and take care of the animals, and I still help with many thing weither it's bathing, taking on walks, giving hair cuts, giving vaccinations, cutting nails, or giving medication of all sorts. I am currently a senior in high school so on weekdays I have to wait till 4:00 to love your fur-babys as much as you do. I will give your fur-babys the same care and love as I give my pets at home, while also meeting your specific care expectations to keep your fur-babys safe and happy.
“If I could leave TEN STARS I would! Christi couldn't have been more caring, more diligent, more loving, or more concerned with our dogs, our house, and our feeling included and informed every step of the way. From the initial communication until the very end when she checked to make sure our flights were on time and asked if we wanted her to come BACK to the house and let the dogs out one last time, she was a DREAM. I think our dogs like her more than they like us now. And they SHOULD. She handled their different personalities and needs with such joy and personal attention, and I think the house was cleaner when we got back than it was when we left! Her fabulous sense of humor and her careful and thoughtful nurturing make her THE BEST DOGSITTER EVER. I will beg her to come back (and so will the dogs)!”
