Gabbi Was an amazing pet sitter for our two doxies! She went above and beyond. Very professional with us and yet caring and loving with our fur babies. We are so impressed and will continue to ie to use her again and again. She was on time for visits and took a bunch of photos. Our dogs adore her! Thanks Gabbi for treating Shylo and Tobi as if they were your own precious pups.

Nikkita was perfect. We needed a walker same day with very little notice and she came through to walk our boy. She was very sweet and communicated everything with us. We would definitely use her again.

About: CURRENTLY NOT TAKING ANY FUR-BABIES. Hi and welcome. My husband and I love animals. We currently have one dog, Brandy, and one cat, Smokey. Both my husband and I work during the week. We are home all day during the weekend. Our house is not big, but we have a lot of love for your furry members of your family. We have a decent size fenced backyard that your pups can run and lounge in while your on vacation. We have been taking care of our dogs for 14 years and 10 years of taking care of cousin's dog one week a year. We would love for you to give us a chance. We are available! We can't wait to meet you and your fur-babies.

About: Although my family has never owned a dog, I have always loved taking care of my aunts, neighbors, and family friends dogs. I always make sure to pay attention to detail when watching a dog and meet each dogs needs whether that be a walk, playing with a toy, belly rubs, or even just relaxing. As a part-time graduate student at USM, I will have time during the day for a dog walk, or to check-in on your pup! I will be available on most weekends for house and dog sitting. I am available to come to your dog and stay with him/her so they do not have to move out of their comfortable environment and stay at a new space with new people.

Another great visit by Mike with Roscoe! He really understands how to work and play with Roscoe who can be a bit picky. Roscoe is always happy and relaxed when I get home.

Stephanie was amazing! I had an emergency and she was able to help with only a few hours notice. She sent lots of pics so I could see the babies, gave them love and treats, and basically provided much needed peace of mind. I will definitely use her again!

Cameryn was great! She watched my 2 kitties while I was away and they loved seeing her. She stopped by each day, fed lots of treats, and sent me pictures each time. It’s nice to know I can trust someone with my boys when I go away. Thank you Cameryn!

Our dogs range from puppy to senior, and she takes good care of all their individual needs. She is always on time and so flexible with our changing schedules. She communicates everything and takes the best pics during her visits! Book her now :)
