Amanda was so fantastic! She was very communicative leading up to and during her stay, including sending lots of pictures. Our dogs were so happy to have her undivided attention, and she was so thoughtful of our house as well. Will absolutely use her again and highly recommend her!!!

This was our second time booking with Jennifer, and she was fantastic once again. She took amazing care of Faz, including right after his neuter, and showed so much patience, attentiveness, and genuine care. It meant a lot knowing he was so loved and well looked after. We truly appreciate everything she did and would absolutely book with her again.

Jackie continues to be awesome. One of my pups got sick and she took him to the vet and then cared for him. She reported vet findings clearly and what meds he needed administered so I could easily take over when I got home. The other two pups were fine and she also gave them the love and care they needed. We can always tell when the dogs have been well cared for because while they’re very happy to see us, they don’t seem at all stressed. Just switching people who care about them.

About: I have lived with cats my entire life and have an abundance of experience caring for them, meeting their needs and wants. Growing up, I also lived with fostered pugs from a local pet rescue and have experience caring for them. While living in Colorado recently, I gained further experience cat sitting, while caring for dogs, geckos, pet birds, and chickens in a suburban setting. I have some experience walking dogs in urban settings. I am able to visit or stay with your dog to provide food, water medicine, play, and companionship. I also clean yards and immediately pickup pet waste when outside and clean in-house messes to prevent stains. I am communicative about pets and send daily updates and photos unless requested otherwise. I am currently a graduate student who only has class two days a week. I can visit animals daily with limitations to evening time on Tuesdays for visits. I am able to stay overnight with pets in their homes everyday and my maximum time out of the home at this time is 7 hours once a week. I often stay with dogs and visit cats, but can stay overnight in order to maintain their feeding and exercise routines. I let dogs out into the yard and spend time playing with them outside or go on morning and evening walks. With current flexibility, I can go on lunchtime walks. I always update clients about their pets daily unless requested otherwise.

We were very Blessed to have Bri stay in our home for a week while we were on vacation! She took amazing care of our pups that have some special needs. We came home to a clean house. She went above and beyond with our home as well. She got our mail, took out the garbage, washed all the bedding from the room she stayed in etc. Will definitely be calling on her again! Thank you Bri!

We entrusted our beloved furry friend to Rave’s care for six nights while we were away on our summer vacation—and we couldn’t be happier with the experience. Rave was incredibly easy to communicate with and kept us updated every day with thoughtful messages and adorable photos of our pup. It gave us such peace of mind knowing our buddy was not only well looked after but genuinely happy and comfortable. We truly appreciate the care and attention Rave provided and wouldn’t hesitate to book again!

About: Thank you so much for considering me to care for your furry family members! I’m a proud dog mom to three pups (one of whom is blind and another is a senior). And also a cat mom to one fabulous feline. Having a special needs dog and a senior dog have given me firsthand experience with caring for pets who need a little extra love and attention — and I’m more than happy to provide it. With over a decade of experience fostering both dogs and cats, animals have always been a huge part of my life. In fact, I like to say I work so my pets can live their best (and most spoiled) lives! I offer a variety of pet care services, including: Overnight care in your home Walks and potty breaks Playtime and feedings Medication administration Multi-pet household care Weekend availability My work schedule is Monday–Friday, 8:00 AM–4:30 PM, so I'm available most weekday evenings and throughout the day on Saturdays and Sundays. Whether your pet needs a walk, some cuddles, or just a reliable human while you're away — I’ve got you covered! Work full time, but available after 430pm during week and flexible on weekends. Overnights also available on Friday and Saturday nights. Can do quick 30 min check or Potty breaks before 8am during week. Set schedules not a necessity. Long term or short term accepted. I currently own three dogs and 1 cat. They are super spoiled, but they deserve it! Key is to make sure they feel safe, have their own space and have needs met.

About: I’ve always grown up with animals in my life, from hamsters, to cats, to dogs, to even a ferret for a little while. I think a fundamental part of life is the love and care for our furry friends, so I would love to help you with your animal needs. Having a dog growing up, I am very familiar with dog walks around the neighborhood and nearby parks. I have also house-sat my neighbors house while they were on vacation. They had two large dogs, so I had the pleasure of sleeping at their house, keeping their plants alive, and giving their pets a little love whenever they needed it. I also have no problem just dropping by to keep your furry friend company, considering that I lost my four-pawed sister not too long ago, being around other dogs brings me joy. My boyfriend and I recently adopted a young cat from the Dunkirk animal shelter and we love her to bits! I am taking two online classes in the summer where work is done on my own time, and I do not have a full time job so I will have plenty of time to meet your pet needs! I am unavailable Thursday’s and Sunday’s but that’s all. For my 1 year old cat, Isla, we make sure all the windows are easily accessible for her to look through and have the screens in when the weather is nice. She has many toys to choose from and is living the life! I make sure the pets I take care of are in the best environment possible and have everything they need.

We couldn't have asked for a better person to watch Dug at the house as we travelled this past weekend. From the meet and greet to the end of stay, Amy was a true gem. She contacted us upon arrival at the house, kept us informed throughout the 2 days with text messages and pictures, and cleaned up the house before leaving. Coming home to a happy dog and a clean house was very much appreciated. I would give Amy a 5+ Star rating if it went higher.

Marideth was absolutely amazing with my boys (cats) while I was out of town for the week. Both of my cats currently have medical requirements - one needs an inhaler daily for asthma and the other on multiple pills. I know this can be a tricky role for anyone to step into and navigate. Marideth handled this extra task with confidence and care. She kept me updated with photos and messages and made sure both my boys were happy while I was away. It was such a huge relief to have her there and know they were in capable hands. She went above and beyond and I absolutely will be booking with her again!
