Shawnee stayed with Josey while I went out of town for a night. She was very easy to work with and took good care of my baby. She sent pictures and communicated well.

From day one Christian was professional and willing to work with our not so friendly boy. We got hourly updates with pictures on our animals. One of our animals got sick while we were away and Christian was great with extra cuddles and provided what was needed. We had no worries or hesitations about our kitties and dogs while we were away.

Megan took such good care of my fur babies! She sent pictures and kept me updated. Prior to leaving I mentioned one of my doggos had a bit of a rash and may need his cone, she notified me shortly after that she found a patch a poison ivy in my backyard! Would highly recommend!

As Jordyn’s manager I came to know her as an extremely hard worker, and someone that we could always rely on. No matter the task Jordyn was always ready and eager to do whatever was asked. She was always very welcoming and kind with customers, and was an excellent addition to our team. I’m sure that with Jordyn’s responsibility and commitment to everything she does, there is no one I’d rather leave my pets with.

Josh was FANTASTIC! Quick and clear communication when booking, even came for a meet and greet beforehand! Got pictures daily so we knew our pets were safe and happy - which is always a big relief when we have to travel. Our house was the same as we left it, clean! We'll definitely be booking with Josh again - it was well worth it!

Mandie is absolutely incredible. Not only does she treat your dog like her own, but she ensures they feel loved like you would yourself. This is the second time Mandie took care of our Bean and I think we found our dog sitter for life. She sends so many pictures and videos and Bean is always so happy when she comes over to see him — I mean really, he gets more excited for her to come over than when my husband and I come home 😅. Mandie is also just a joy of a person who is punctual, clean, flexible with our hectic schedules and we are always happy to have her sit at our house. Seriously don’t think twice, and book Mandie to watch your pup ASAP. You won’t regret it!

About: I have always had a dog and cats growing up. I owned a boxer and in total, 4 cats growing up. I currently have my own dog. Her name is Bella and she is almost three years old! I rescued her when she was a puppy, where she was covered in fleas and malnourished. I also take care of my parents dog. He is 4 years old and his name is Oliver. If your pet is dog friendly, Bella loves to meet new friends! And if not, that is okay too! I will ensure your pet is safe and happy🐶💕 I do work a day job. But I can definitely do evening times and overnight times. I can definitely do weekends as well, as I am free. I currently make my dogs food. I do not use kibble or any dog food. I spend 2 hours every month meal prepping her food. I included lots of different meats and veggies and store it in baggie portions in the freezer. My dog is very hyper, so I play fetch with her for about an hour a day. She get’s all the loving and kisses. I do work from home 2 days out of the week and if I am not working from home, I drop her off at my parents so she can be taken care of while I am gone. She also get’s to play with Oliver, my parents dog, while she is there. I do not like to leave her alone for an extended period of time. I will always make sure your pet is comfortable and they are having fun. Your pet is my number one priority.

Haleigh is such a caring & kind doggie sitter. She paid close attention to Clive’s needs and made him feel safe in her presence. They went for walks, she administered his medicine and fed him well. I can tell Clive, my beagle, really likes her and I do too. I highly recommend Haleigh as a top notch pet sitter ♥️

Sabrina is so sweet! I was kind of skeptical about having someone I didn’t know house/dogsit, but Sabrina made me feel super comfortable about the whole process. She sent pictures of our dog several times a day to put my mind at ease. Came back from our trip and our dog was safe & happy and the house was just like we left it. I highly recommend Sabrina!

About: I’ve been dog sitting for about 2 years now mostly just house/pet sitting for some families in my neighborhood but I recently worked at a pet boarding & grooming business where I learned how to take care of any pet all size, breeds & ages! I’m really good with keeping pets on a good schedule whether that be feeding, exercising or medicine. I’m currently working a part-time job at a restaurant & working on going to start my freshman year of college so working with animals fits perfectly as I have a lot of free time! When house/pet sitting for someone I always make sure their fur babies get the top notch care. I have a dog of my own so I like to imagine that it’s my own puppy I’m watching. I always make sure that the pet I am watching sticks to their normal routine as to not throw them off from what they were trained to do. I make sure they always have someone checking in on them whether that be me or if I’m busy my mother always helps out to ensure they are very well taken care of!

Luciano took very good care of Max and sent nice photos. He also made a very clever video with his making doggy noises that resulted in Max cocking his heads and looking just adorable. I would hire him again without reservation as he is a very nice responsible, young man.
