“Avery is amazing! She did a great job taking care of my cat while I was out of town. She gave her lots of love and everything she needed. My cat loved her and even fell asleep on her lap, which I’ve never seen before. We hope to have her visit again in the future.”
“We were very nervous about leaving our cats with someone new since we just moved them to the area and they were going through alot of change with that, but we were very happy with Lori and her attentiveness to them while we were gone. They appeared to take to her right away. We would highly recommend Lori to anyone looking for pet care.”
“Heather is very attentive and makes sure that she gives clear solid photos of your furry friends. She is very helpful and makes sure all of your animals needs are met. Very reliable. Please book her! She's such a wonderful support to animal care.”
“Ariel was on time, followed all instructions, and even stayed extra for my skittish dog. Not easy taking care of my crew but Ariel handled them all well - came home to happy pups. She also communicated with me and provided updates which is what I look for in a sitter. I can recommend Ariel”
About: I have previous experience in caring for an Australian Shepherd/Border Collie mix for long periods at a time. Being a high energy dog- I’m prepared for anything. I’m willing to help in whatever way I can- and provide your pet with love and attention! I have always had pets, but currently can’t afford to keep one myself. Growing up I had a Rottweiler and a Jack Russell, as I became a teenager we adopted a Pit Bull type dog who really changed my perception about the breed. I have high energy myself- so I love to be able to get dogs outside as much as possible and burn off a lot of their pent up energy. Dogs need it just as much as children do! I work a normal 9-5 job usually Monday- Friday but I have a partner who works from home, who I could argue loves pets as much as I do. I have a big yard and perfect sized home that is very safe for big and small pets as it is a single floor home. I do have a crate if needed for your fur baby and will treat them like my own pet.
About: I have always loved animals and always been around them in my home. I have years of experience with feeding, exercising, and providing enrichment for both cats and dogs. I understand the importance of making sure they feel comfortable as well as respected during our time together. My goal is to ensure that your pet is happy, healthy, and cared for when you need a little extra help! I’m currently working part time, and have plenty of time to hangout with your fur babies. With my current seasonal hours slowing down, your pets can be guaranteed a sitter with pretty open availability! I have a large backyard and one level home for your fur baby. I have access to 5 miles of shaded and accessible trails as well as a dog friendly beach. My furniture is meant to be enjoyed by four-legged friends and I love taking them on “field trips” to many of the natural areas I have access to!
About: I’ve taken care of pets since I was 17. I’ve help family and friends care for pets when I babysit their children. I loved being around the pets and children which is why I use my extra free time to provide attentive and loving care to others babies and fur babies as well! I currently work from home full time, so I have plenty of time to spend with your fur babies. They would have my attention and care at any time needed as I have more than enough time on my hands. I live in an apartment complex close to the beach, so I am open to caring for them in your home or mine! Whichever works best for you!
About: I have owned, rescued, and fostered dogs and cats of any age. I have no issues handling emergencies and medication or special care to your babies. I work from home and have a flexible schedule so I can devote lots of attention to your babies. I love animals and am experienced with pretty much any situation that comes up. I have a fenced yard and three dog friendly pups to keep your dogs entertained. Kitties will have access to the kitty playground my husband has built that is separate from the dogs
About: I grew up with a dog in the family; having a dog is a part of my lifestyle! I can help with walks, drop ins and sittings. I stay organized when in other people’s spaces and thoroughly clean up after myself! I have a full time job as a civil designer and would love to hang with some pups in the mornings/evenings or on the weekends! This is my side hustle and happiness booster! I am able to work from home part time, which makes caring for pets very simple! I am always sure to clean up any #2 , and have no problem house cleaning if any accidents occur.
“Marcos took great care of our kitties. His updates were informative, assuring us that everything was taken care of. He even went above and beyond to pick up medicine when we ran out due to poor planning. Additionally, one of our cats is very difficult for her medicine, but Marcos was able to handle her. We were very glad to come home to healthy, only mildly resentful kitties.”
