About: Our own furbabies are reactive so I definitely know the struggles of finding someone who understands! I’ve learned a lot of knowledge from our trainer and am very detail oriented/structured when it comes to providing care! I currently work full time but am looking for another source of income when I am free! I am a teacher so I have breaks off when the children do, and have plenty of weekends off as well for date nights, vacations, etc! I only provide pet care in clients home, as boarding in my own home would cause stress to our reactive dogs. Open to learning and sticking to your schedule as much as possible so your furbaby doesn’t experience too much of a drastic change without you there!

Andy is kind and gentle with our tripod Xander. Our dog is always so excited when he sees Andy. He has leash reactivity and Andy has been understanding and capable. Andy has been flexible with our schedule. We are so happy we chose Andy to be our dog walker.

About: My background working at a veterinary office and volunteering for a medical animal rescue equips me with the skills to provide the best care for your pet(s).

Siqin is super sweet! She stopped by before the visit to meet my cats and get to know them a bit, which was really thoughtful. During the drop-in, she sent lots of pics and videos and made sure to play with them. They both seemed really happy and comfortable with her. Would definitely book again!

Nola is fantastic! This was my second time having her look after my cats and she was great. Very responsive and competent. I was very nervous because one of my cats is an extreme escape artist but Nola managed to keep her inside during all of the visits which was such a huge relief. Highly recommend!!

Myat has done a great job on her drop in visits of my scaredy cat Hidee while I was away for 2 weeks. My cat even came out once while she was there, which is quite unusual. Myat is friendly, considerate and very easy to communicate with. Is very attentive and immediately reaches out to me for possible concerns and is very quick to respond. After each of her visits,I received detailed updates including tasks that were done and photos of them and my cat. I felt at ease with her caring for my cat. Overall a great experience! I highly recommend Myat and will definitely be seeking her services again in the future!

I felt very comfortable going away and leaving my pets in Aurora’s care. She is very attentive to my pets needs and always gave extra loves. I really appreciate her communications messages to provide updates. This was my second time using Aurora and won’t be my last. I would highly recommend her if you want the best care for your pet while you are away.

Amy was wonderful! She dropped in to feed our little dog and keep him company while we were away, and everything went perfectly. He’s an easy guy—just needs a meal, a tummy rub, and some companionship—and Amy took great care of him. We came home to a happy, relaxed pup. Highly recommend Amy!

Maryam was incredibly attentive and caring during the holidays. She visited Dora every day, spent time playing with her, and made sure she was comfortable and well cared for. She even helped groom Dora and brush her fur, which I really appreciated. It was very reassuring to know that Dora was getting not just food and basic care, but also attention and companionship while we were away. I’m very grateful to Maryam for her patience and kindness, and I would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and thoughtful pet sitter.
