“Madeline responded almost immediately to my last-minute request for a cat-sitter. She quickly set up a meet and greet asap to meet our two cats and find out their routines. I found her to be very pleasant and reliable. She sent photos daily of our cats while we were gone. It was a nice reminder they were in good hands and were well take care of. I would highly recommend Madeline!”
“Elizabeth was wonderful and took such good care of my fur babies! She gave me peace of mind leaving my geriatric dogs in her amazing care! Thank you for all you did for them.”
“Hailly was wonderful! Respectful of our requests, detailed, timely, and sent pictures and updates every day. Was very mindful of our cat’s moods and picked up on the fact that he was a little nervous at first, but you could see he quickly started becoming comfortable each visit through the pictures. We would certainly choose her again. Thank you, Hailly! :)”
“Cindy was a wonderful sitter for my shy, timid cat! Even though my cat wouldn't interact or come out much, Cindy still was patient and kept trying to make her comfortable and ensure she had everything she needed. Cindy also was so kind to go above and beyond and out of her way to water my plants while I was gone. I'd absolutely recommend Cindy as a pet sitter!”
“We really like Alicia! Alicia is very responsive and easy to work with. They sent us a report after the visit with a video of our kitties and took care of everything we requested. We’ve already booked Alicia for house sitting next!”
“Corey was very communicative, prompt, and flexible which we really appreciated. Our cat seemed to warm to her very quickly! Would recommend and hire again! Thanks Corey :)”
“Maria had drop-in visits to care for our 2 senior cats while we were away for the weekend, including giving one of the cats an oral medication. She was communicative, prompt, sent detailed updates and lots of photos! My shy cat who takes time to warm up to people didn’t go into deep hiding as she has done in the past with other pet-sitters. It was lovely to go away and know our cats were in good hands.”
“Madi did an amazing job watching my pets! She took proficient care of all their needs and made certain to give them love and attention during visits. Updates were comprehensive and included lots of great pictures. Would hire again in a heartbeat! Your fur babies are in capable hands with Madi!”
“Christian continues to be my "go to" for prompt, kind and affectionate attention and walks for Lucy Dog at lunchtime when I am at work. Christian takes unprompted and quick action when unexpected situations arise. He is intuitive, mature and responsive, and he genuinely cares for my dog. I highly recommend Christian without reservation.”
“Kathrine was great! She checked in on our kitten when it was a hot day and we where away. She sent us pictures, refilled his water, and played with him! This was our first time using rover/ Katherine, we were very pleased.”
About: I’ve loved animals since I was a little kid! I’ve watched family members pets throughout the years growing up. I will treat your dog as my own. I work my daily schedule Around my client ( your fur baby’s ) needs for the day! I also do overnight boarding in my home. I have a fenced in yard with plenty of room for your fur babies to run! I also have two friendly fur babies of my own!
“We were just thrilled with Bryan and most certainly highly recommend him! We have a physically challenged senior dog who wears leg braces and can tend to be crabby and somewhat uncooperative! Bryan was great with making sure her leg braces were on properly, getting her out for a short little walk, and just outside in the yard. Very communicative also with text messages and photos! We were very pleased with Bryan's caring way.”
“Great pet sitter! She sent pictures every visit and my cat loved her!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of various kinds since I was 10. Friends, family and neighbors have relied on me to walk, feed and play with their pets. Currently I work on a 10 month contract. Therefore I have summer off so I have plenty of time to provide pet care to those in need of such services. I am a very trustworthy person who has tremendous respect for other people’s property and belongings. I especially respect pets with their needs and desires.
About: I have a special needs pup, so am good at giving medication and doing physical therapy exercises. I am also an outdoor enthusiast who is extremely patient, so I will take your dog out on the trail (if ok) and let them smell things as long as they want and provided it is safe to sniff! I do work a full time job, but remotely. I prefer morning, evenings, or weekends. And if I'm pet sitting, I will make sure to stick around and give your pet some attention- even during work days as I can work remotely! I follow medications and schedules. I will walk dogs I'm pet sitting a minimum of twice a day with let out in the middle of the day. I also believe attention, if the animal wants it, is important!
“Devin was awesome, he really went above and beyond for my cat and I felt safe leaving him in his care!”
“Dianna was so great with my nervous pup Auggie. She was super responsive leading up to and during his stay with her and her family and I knew I was leaving him with someone knowledgeable, kind, and trustworthy. My dog can be very nervous with new people and rarely has to stay away from me, and Dianna was so helpful and knew exactly what to do with my nervous boy (and spoiled him while he was there). I would highly recommend her services and would definitely trust her to watch Auggie again next time we’re in the area and need doggie care!”
“Peggy was great! It was my first time leaving my 13 and 15 year old babies, and leaving my house, to someone I don’t know. It was also last minute and they were anxious because they knew I was going away. Peggy allowed me to call her and talk to her, send her written and video instructions, and assured me everything would be okay. She was punctual at every time I asked her to be here. She stayed with them and played with them, which is more than I was expecting. She kept my updated. She turned off the lights like I asked, and left them on for me when I came home. Everything was perfect and made my trip much easier. I’d recommend Peggy if you need a sitter.”
About: My name is Grace, and animals have always been a significant part of my life. I grew up on a farm where I was surrounded by cows, chickens, and sheep, and my mother bred Australian Shepherds, which sparked my passion for animals. I have over a year of experience working in dog grooming and have worked with both cats and dogs of various sizes. I am currently a student at flcc and I don’t have school on Tuesday or Thursday and I am available for weekends so that gives me plenty of time to play and take care of your pets! I take into account all that a client may ask of me I understand that it takes trust to have someone care for your pet like that. A pet is a valued family member and they should be treated as such!
