About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was about 10 years old. They always seem to love me and I love them as well. I also have experience in training as well I’m available all the time as I’m unemployed at the moment. I have plenty of time to spend time and care for pets. I have a dog of my own and he was the sweetest. He gets along with other dogs well I can easily create a dog if needed. But I do have another dog in the home. He is very sweet and gets along with other animals very well.
“Mark is EASILY the best sitter there is out there. He spoils my dog like a queen and sends me detailed updates everyday. Your pet will feel like they’re on vacation too. You will not regret booking with Mark!!”
“We booked with Sarah last minute after she was recommended to us and she was so understanding and accommodating even with the short notice! Will absolutely use her again in the future! ♥️”
“She was amazing with my Tucker. He is very energetic and he was very happy. Fast responses to texts and plenty of pictures. Tucker was very sad to leave. Will definitely use her again.”
“Christina and Dan run a fantastic facility, my pup had a lot of fun and he'll be back! It was his first time being boarded, and they sent me pictures of him playing and on walks throughout the stay.”
“Dodger came back happy! Michelle sent photos and updates everyday and was very mindful of our requests. I'm insuring his behavior. We recommend Michelle and will be using her again in a few weeks!”
“Debbie and Adam were so very welcoming and took great care of our Piper! We loved the daily pictures they sent and how easily they picked up on her unique personality:)”
“Brittany and her family were amazing sitters while I was taking my first trip away from my two dogs (as my mom would usually watch them for me) - so I was nervous to leave them with just anyone but my mom but Brittany's demeanor put me at ease! I am so grateful to have found her. She is an excellent communicator and I can tell how well my dogs were cared for. I cannot recommend her enough and I will absolutely use her services going forward without a hesitation. She was so flexible and easy to work with. Thank you again from Courtney, Caramelito and Sugar❤️🐶”
“Tina was Great and Bella Loved staying there !!! .... She kept me up to date on how she was doing when I was away and that made me feel Soo good. I will Definitely use her again.....!!! ❤️👍😁”
“Michelle and Luke were amazing taking care of our Zeke. He got plenty of love and exercise while we were away. He was even a little sad about leaving. Michelle made sure we got updates and sent pictures to ease us as this was the first time leaving him that wasn’t family. I highly recommend them to anyone who needs someone to take care of their pets. They won’t disappoint. Thank you Michelle and Luke!”
About: I lost my beagle baby girl a year and a half ago, and I would love to give your pet the same care and attention as her. I have experience walking, nail trimming, administering medication, and assisting with mobility issues. I love all animals and would happily welcome yours into my home. I am looking to provide dog walking/quick visit services on weekdays after my work, and boarding services on weekends when I’m off. While in my care, your pet will have my diligent attention and care. I have a big yard for running and playing. It is not fenced, but I can utilize tethers to give them room to move around under supervision. I will make it my top priority to love your pet and follow your care instructions.
“Our dog seemed comfortable overall. We didn’t receive the daily updates we had agreed on, but the photos we did get showed him looking happy and relaxed. We also weren’t told ahead of time that additional dogs would be fostered during his stay, and we only learned about that after boarding had already begun. Fortunately, everything went smoothly despite the surprise. Overall, our dog was safe and seemed to enjoy himself, which is what matters most.”
“Highly recommend. Our boy was well taken care of with daily updates and pictures. He loved playing with her dogs and actually came home pretty tired from all the activity. Will definitely be using Melissa again.”
“I feel blessed to have met Lisa. She is exactly who I want watching my fur babies. This was the first time I left Hattie and Phoebe with anyone other than family so I was very nervous. Instantly after meeting Lisa I was relieved and knew they were in perfect hands and would be treated like family. I received videos throughout their stay of my pups having a great time and Lisa even let me know when Hattie was being finicky eating and spent time making sure she ate. Lisa went above and beyond anything I would have expected and will absolutely contact her in the future!”
“Nelia and her precious family take dog sitting to a very high level! Always will be my first choice for future bookings! Hershey was treated like part of her family with lots of love, attention and exercise. Nelia sent frequent updates with great photos of him with her children, outside in the backyard, and on neighborhood walks. It was my longest time away from him. It was hard for me, but Nelia made it so much easier knowing how well he was being cared for. Nelia followed my instructions exactly and was very flexible with last minute changes with my work schedule and needing to drop him off a day earlier. Flexible with drop off time also. She invited me to stop over for a meet and greet before the first drop off after our first phone call. You learn a lot from meet and greets and I highly recommend them for everyone! Meet Nelia and her family and you will agree that she is a great choice!”
