“Heidi was great. We had a few changes to our travel plans and she just went right with the flow. We were impressed when we met her with her thorough questions and enjoyed the updates she sent. When we got home our dogs were happy and didn’t seem stressed at all and Heidi left us a note with details of medication that had been given, etc.”
“Jessica helped care for my pack over an extended weekend & took amazing care of the whole crew and the house too! I can't say enough wonderful things, I felt easy being away and knew the animals were getting the best care! Thank you again Jessica for everything!!”
“Chelsea was an absolutely wonderful sitter to our dog and three cats! Our dog is anxious and reactive and from our meet and greet to the actual day of sitting, Chelsea respected his space, followed all of our instructions, and went above and beyond to make him feel comfortable. She also was great with our cats that all warmed up to her so quickly. We are so grateful to Chelsea for the updates she gave us, as we were actually able to enjoy our weekend knowing our pets were in good hands. Will definitely be hiring Chelsea in the future and would definitely recommend her to anyone!”
“Natalie was great! Toby was happy and relaxed when we came home. Every day we got photos and notes - clearly they liked each other. All good! I will definitely post ask for Natalie whenever we go away.”
“We happily had Laurie spend a long weekend with our 2 dogs at our house and everything was great! She sent lots of photos of the dogs and they seemed very much like they enjoyed themselves. She even got my picky dog to eat. Respectful with the house and we returned to happy dogs and a clean house.”
“Natasha has done pet sitting for our 4 cats twice now, and we’ve scheduled for her to house sit again for us soon. Two of our kitties are 18, and they each need oral medication. And, we keep them separate from the 2 young cats at nighttime to ensure the older ones get their food. House sitting has worked well for this, and so has Natasha. She sends a daily update and is good about asking if she needs anything. The litter boxes picked we we arrived at home, trash was taken out, plants watered and in good shape. I feel comfortable knowing Natasha is taking good care of the cats and the house while we’re away.”
About: I've had animals since I was little, cats, dogs, reptiles, ferrets, and I've loved them all as if they were my children, specific dietary or exercise needs is no problem for me. A pet to me is a part of the family. I'm currently working part time, available Monday through Friday on most weeks, I'll house sit for up to a week and a half. I currently don't have a license because of covid slowing me down, but I am working on it and someone can drop me off at the location. I have a fenced backyard and my childhood dog had many issues later on in life so dietary or medication is no issue for me. The family dog I have now is the most stubborn dog I have ever met, having to work with him has taught me how to deal with stubborn or slightly aggressive dogs.
“Kelly did a great job with my boys, stayed with them and they were not stressed at all! Sent pictures to keep me updated too. Appreciate her service, and she will be rebooked for sure!”
“Christine put us at ease about leaving our pups with her. She communicated with us multiple times leading up to it to make sure there were no problems. She provided multiple updates throughout. Our dogs were clearly content and well taken care of. We will absolutely continue to book her. Thanks again, Christine!”
“Miranda was amazing with both our furbabies! They were very loved and well taken care of during a snow storm too! Lots of pictures and updates! And our one dog requires 2 pils per day and she was able to administer the medicine easily! Thanks Miranda!”
“Sara did a phenomenal job house sitting and taking care of my pup. She was always responsive and sent updates with pictures. After her stay, she had some great suggestions which I will use in the future. I will use Sara again and cannot recommend her enough.”
“Devon was great with our dogs - they are both large and athletic and he was able to provide them the exercise and snuggles they needed. I was reassured by the daily pictures and updates and could see for myself how comfortable my dogs were with Devon. He's such a nice guy with a calm energy. He took great care of the house and left everything as neat as a pin when he left. Would definitely recommend and we will be using Devon again for other trips.”
“McKayla did wonderful with my chows! She was attentive with all 3 and careful to keep the two females apart since they do not get along. She kept them on their feeding schedule and on their potty schedule and won Simba over immediately! I will definitely reach out to McKayla in the future when I need a sitter! Highly recommended!”
“Lily was so great with my dog reactive girl, Serenity! She kept me up to date the entire visit regarding meal consumption and how she did on walks. She also sent many pictures of my baby, which made being away a little easier. Five stars! Will absolutely re book in the future!”
“Lilly did an amazing job watching our two Dobermans. They instantly warmed up to her which is rare and she took the best care of our babies. We will absolutely be using her again and recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter for their fur babies!”
“Was a lifesaver watching our 2 dogs while we went on vacation for a week in our own home. Sent us lots of pictures and updates. Very professional and kind. Would definitely recommend!!!”
“Absolutely amazing sitter! Abby followed all our instructions for Scout, kept us updated with great communication throughout our trip, and left the house very clean. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience!”
“Jenna was an excellent sitter for our dog Porter over our wedding weekend. We were a little nervous having someone stay with our pup for the first time over such an important weekend, but Jenna made us completely at ease during the meet and greet and was very communicative about logistics before the stay. We also appreciated the updates throughout the weekend. We’d love to have Jenna back whenever we need a sitter!”
