“Maggie is a wonderful housesitter. Our very anxious grouchy dog took an immediate liking to her. We will definitely be using Maggie to house and dog sit the next time we go away.”
3. Diane D.
“Diane did such a great job. She fit right into our "pet" family. It was quickly clear she loves animals. She sent us updates and pics which was greatly appreciated. She is trustworthy and dependable. Would recommend her without any reservations.”
4. Jillian C.
“Jillian is an excellent communicator and I knew her plan to balance her personal and work responsibilities with my dog's care needs. She was very attentive to our pup, her needs, house and pet care instructions, and I didn't worry for a single moment. Would/ will very happily have Jillian back!”
5. Margaret G.
“My sweet girl Frappé was left in great company under Margaret! I was always updated and even had notes that included everything they had done at certain sites times of the day. I felt very reassured that my girl was safe and joyful. Definitely would love to have Margaret again!”

About: I have several years of experience dog/pet sitting including overnight stays. I enjoy taking dogs on daily walks, and playing catch or tug of war to help them get in their daily exercise. Some dog breeds I have long-term care experience with (one-week to month-long pet sitting) include labs, golden retrievers, formosan mountain dogs, and bullmastiff. Although I love all the furry friends! I am also experienced in caring for multiple pets—the most being two dogs, two cats, and one stray, for two separate month-long sits. I am comfortable walking multiple dogs at a time. I also have experience feeding dogs and cats oral medications. I am happy to do house calls for walks and feeding, as well as overnight stays. During overnight stays I make sure the house stays clean and tidy, and that the pets follow their house rules! My schedule is very flexible, and I have a lot of daytime availability for walks and potty breaks. I work as a server/bartender, so am generally scheduled weekend evenings. My shifts last about 6 hours, so for house sitting/overnights, 6-7 hours would be the maximum amount of time the pups would be on their own. If sitting is scheduled with enough advance I can also get this down to only 5-6 hours. I currently cannot offer pet service in my own house. In a client’s home I always make sure I understand what the house rules are for the pets, as well as for guests! I am happy to meet clients in a public setting first if they feel more comfortable with that before inviting me to their home. I understand how important people’s homes and pets are to them, and do everything I can to communicate with reliability and respect. I love taking care of animals, and want both you and your pets to have a great experience with me.

“Brandy provides thorough and loving care to your critters when you need to be away. We are so grateful for the gentle care she provided our kitties (and the chicken care too)! Brandy also provided oral and topical meds for our older cats. We highly recommend her.”
8. Elias V.
“Eli was always in a household with cats since he was very young. He has two golden retrievers at his home that he totally adores. He has never met an animal that he shows both love and kindness. He has a very calm demeanor and would be more than capable of caring for any animal.”
9. Joseph K.
“Joe house sat for a long weekend with our 120 lb Newfoundland dog and 4 cats. He was reliable and left our home as clean as he found it, the pets were clearly in good hands.”
10. Nicole C.
“Thank you, Nicole! Our cats were singing your praises when we got home. Our home was left neater than we left it, with everyone taken good care of, and all the right meds administered while we were out of town, giving us peace of mind. It’s always hard leaving your pets and home while away, but Nicole was communicative and responsive while we were gone. I am so grateful for her and hope she will consider caring for our cats when we have to leave town again! :)”
11. Margaret K.
“It is my pleasure to let you know about Margaret's love for animals. She has cared for and nutured my pets over the years. Minnie , my current dog is sweet and also very active. It is assuring to know that my pet caregiver has the energy to keep up with her. Margaret is also very intuitive. My pup is not very verbal when it comes to her needs. Minnie speaks with her eyes. Margaret has learned what each expression means. I have watched her with her pets and other along the way. I can say she is a kindred spirit.”
12. Joanne "Lili" C.
“Lili looked after my two aged golden retrievers regularly and was wonderful. Lili really cares for all animals and will do whatever it takes, going above and beyond, to make sure they are happy. I cannot recommend her highly enough.”

About: First, it was cats. I had cats underfoot in my home from childhood well into adulthood. That translates into years of experience caring for cats, and approximately one metric ton of kitty litter scooped. Then I became an adopted dog father when I moved in with my partner and their dog, who we’ll call “Lady.” I was a remote worker, so I got to spend just about all day, every day with Lady until her passing in 2021 at the age of 12. Since then, I’ve kept dogs and cats in my life by caring for the pets of my fellow community members as if they were my very own. I have a reasonably flexible schedule, but good communication and coordination is important, especially in the winter. Weather and/or other hazardous conditions can impact my ability to provide services. Before our first engagement, I will meet with you to learn about things like: * Your ground rules for me when interacting with your pets, or anything else in/on your property. * If applicable, how to safely enter and exit your home and/or property. * Your preferred walk routes, dog parks, and other activities involving outdoor exercise. * Day-to-day care. Meal times, potty routine, etc. We all know that pets can have an uncanny sense of time. It helps me to have a general idea of what your pet might be expecting, and when.

“Megan did a great job feeding my 2 cats while I was on vacation. They were on a twice a day schedule and she made sure to feed them in yhe mornign and night. She also stayed a while to give them affection and attention. When I got home everything was locked up tight, and everything was just as it was when I left.”
15. Megan G.
“Megan did a wonderful job watching Abby! We got daily updates and pictures and came home to a happy pup and clean home! Thank you Megan!”
16. Emily M.
“We really appreciated Emily staying with our fur babies and we will be trusting her with all our future visits! She did a great job of keeping us updated and making sure their needs were met.”
17. Abby S.
“Abby did a great job with our pets Stout and Bean. She is so kind and loving. She showed up on time and spent extra time with them. She treats our dogs as if they were her own. Highly recommend!”
18. Ambria M.
“Ambria has always been an amazing pet care provider, with her own pets and with others! I highly recommend Ambria for all pet care, especially dogs! She has an amazing way with animals and I wouldn’t want anyone else to care for my pets while I’m away. She is very responsible and always checks in. I never feel like I need to be worried, and I know my pets are well loved and taken care of! Do yourself a favor and book Ambria while you can!”
19. Michelle M.
“Michelle was awesome. She came for a meet and greet and my dogs (and super shy kids) instantly loved her. She checked in frequently while we were away and gave us updates on our dogs, which I think she could just tell we were hoping for. She even found a hole in our fence that we need to fix for the safety of our dogs. We came home to happy, stress free pups. She is a happy, caring person and we will definitely book with her again.”
20. Kristen N.
“We have animals with very specific needs that Kristen has always been attentive and respectful of. She prioritizes following their routine and structure to ensure that they feel safe. Kristen has always been flexible with scheduling and very reliable, which has helped us feel at ease while being away from our pets. We have used her services several times and have never been disappointed.”
