“Debbie was so great!”


2. Julie D.
“Julie has two golden retrievers and several cats. She takes her dogs for walks twice a day when weather permits. I have seen her walking them in the rain even though she has a fenced in backyard. Her cats are all rescued and range from 5 years to 16 years old. She plays with them all the time. I know she takes them for pet check ups with our vet. She has taken care of my cat when we go on vacation and has always given us lots of pictures and feedback on how he is doing.”

“Shelley was so incredibly helpful and kind! She was able to watch our doggo last minute and was so patient and sweet with him—she made sure the environment was safe as she introduced him to the other dogs there. I 100% recommend her to everyone!!”

About: I've had the chance to care for pets of all shapes and sizes, from tiny hamsters to big lovable dogs. 🐹🐕 Through my experience, I've learned how to handle different temperaments and cater to each pet's unique needs. Whether it's administering medication, providing specialized diets, or simply giving extra snuggles, I go the extra mile to ensure every pet feels safe, comfortable, and loved. 🥰 Plus, I'm super reliable and always make sure to communicate with pet owners, sending them updates and cute photos so they can see how much fun their furry friend is having. 📸🐾 So you can trust that your beloved pet will be in great hands with me! I’m currently working part time so I have plenty of time to play with your pups!!🐶 . . . . . . . . :) When it comes to caring for pets, I prioritize safety, trust, and creating a comfortable environment, whether it's in my home or the client's home. In my home, I make sure to create a pet-friendly space with all the necessary amenities, such as cozy bedding, toys, and a secure outdoor fenced in area for playtime. When caring for pets in a client's home, I follow their specific instructions and routines to provide a seamless experience for the pets. I make sure to create a familiar and comfortable environment by using their own bedding, toys, and maintaining their regular feeding and exercise schedules. Trust is of utmost importance to me, so I strive to build a strong bond with the pets and their owners. I provide regular updates, photos, and videos to keep the owners informed and reassured that their furry friends are in good hands. Overall, whether it's in my home or the client's home, I go above and beyond to provide a safe, trustworthy, and comfortable environment for pets under my care. 🐾😊


6. Amy R.
“I have used Amy many times to watch my animals. I have 2 German Shepherds and 2 cats. One of the dogs is older and requires arthritis medication which she administered with ease! My younger dog is very wild and rambunctious, and she can handle that too! Our house can be chaotic with everyone, so we require a lot of rules that the animals need to live by, for which she is capable of leading the pack. She has normally stayed in my home to watch my animals, as there are so many and she leaves the house better than we left it. She is very kind and considerate and you can tell by her positive vibes that she loves animals which in turn makes them love her! I would recommend Amy to anyone needing a sitter for their animals!”

About: Love, caring and fun!!! My favorite thing to do is go on walks in the fresh air with dogs. I have always had a dog with breeds all over the map. My favorite breed is a husky but still love my Yorkshire terriors. 26 years of dog care. It is a pleasure having a dog to always rely on to make your day great. Your dog will feel super comfortable and you will feel safe having a reliable pet sitter. Dogs really are the best companion to have that brings an instant smile always. Count on me to always keep your dog safe. I hope to ease your mind knowing that your dog will have a good time. Can't wait to meet your fur baby. :)


10. Kellie R.
About: Working professionally with dogs for over 11 years. I train, walk, care, and am able to handle dogs of all ages and many temperaments. I can come to your home or they can come to mine. Dogs are my life. I currently volunteer at a shelter where I just relocated to. My schedule is wide open while I rebuild my business locally to offer quality, loving, and affordable pet care so people can have the best in life and not have to worry. I follow all owner direction regarding meals, walks, medication, and socialization. I like to walk every two to four hours for at least 30 min, and play one on one throughout the day.


11. Jacob T.

“I highly recommend Jacob! He was phenomenal and made my pups fill at home. I'm not comfortable leaving my dachshunds anywhere else. He sends me pictures and keeps me updated. I wouldn't have wished for a better pets sitter for my fur babies. Will continue to use in the future!”


12. Samantha G.
“AWESOME!! She was very knowledgeable about my dogs medication, even more knowledgeable than me it felt like. She is a close friend who really helped me when my dog had Pyometra and needed surgery and medications. She gave me pointers to help my pitbull take the medicine and making her comfortable. She would check up on us and definitely wasn’t afraid of any blood or needles.”
