Abby has done it again! She provided outstanding care for our dogs and cats while we were away for 5 days. Just like before, we returned to happy pets and a spotless home. It’s clear Abby is a natural with animals and she treats them like her own. She’s an excellent communicator and sends regular pictures, videos and update’s. We feel extremely fortunate to have found such a reliable, caring pet sitter. Can’t recommend Abby enough!

I've known Aliyah for many years, and she's always been one of the friendliest people I've ever met. She's a natural regarding animals and has helped me care for my new dog by giving me tips and tricks on how to get closer to him. Countless times she'll tell me stories of how her day went mixed in with her interactions with stray animals that come to her and interact with her by nature simply because she's genuine at heart. When she told me she wanted to care for pets as a profession, I had no doubt she would love it as it would be no different than how she usually is with any pet. Not only does she care for her pet as if they were her child, but she does it so effortlessly that one would think she's a seasoned pro. She has such a way with pets that they'll be much loved and cared for because she gives so much love as a genuine person.

I have never left my fur babies with anyone other than my daughter before. I couldn’t say enough how great she was. Ollie who is normally shy and takes awhile to warm up to people was sitting on her lap before I hardly got gone. I would not use anyone else.

China's help with my two dogs has been fantastic! She is patient, consistently on time, and genuinely loves animals. My dogs always get back from their walk so happy and with their energy ran out. I really believe they love her so much.

Michelle is incredible! She helped us immensely by caring for our pupper in home while we enjoyed a weekend away. Having recently moved, It was important for us to keep our pup less stressed in a familiar environment - Michelle totally understood and approached Finley with patience and KINDNESS!! Michelle sent the best photos of our little man and I knew he was in excellent hands. Michelle is an animal whisperer and we are just so glad to have found her 🥹 ty Michelle!!!!!

About: I am a proud mother of a 4yr old son and an 10 yr old daughter.. My daughter is usually at school for most of the day. However, caring for both full time I have come to notice animals stimulate both kids and teach them respect, responsibility and routine. We are excited to em"bark" on this new chapter in life and cant wait to start. Together, I believe all 3 of my family unit would not only love, but sincerely enjoy even the smallest and largest pets while their 'parents' are away or just need some attention. With summer upon us - my schedule (and helping hands) have become more flexible. Currently, I am available every day from 6am to 7pm. Holidays, weekends, and every day that ends in "Y"! With respect to the pet , clients home, and specific care needs, I try to always keep an open mind and heart but keeping respect in the foreground.

Desi was absolutely awesome. She was very professional and loving. Our babies fell in love with her as soon as she walked into the house. Desi made us feel like we were leaving our babies with family. We would definitely recommend her for your babies. We will be utilizing her during our upcoming travel season.

Aubrey took good care of my cat while I was on vacation. My cat is very old and blind. I was nervous leaving her but Aubrey sent me updates and pics regularly. She was also diligent in following my instructions for her care. Aubrey did such a good job, I don’t think my cat even knew I was gone!

Brooklynn has been a frequent caretaker for my elder, 15 year old black lab. When caring for Halee she is responsible for administering her medications, preparing her food, taking her on short walks, and aiding her if she has any mobility issues. She has always met all of my standards for my babies care, i’ve never had an issue. With this, she has taken care of my spoiled cat giving her so much love and affection. Both of my animals adore Brooklynn and we couldn’t imagine having anyone but her!

Wonderful, so glad to find Lisa to help care for our household of pets over the holidays while we were traveling out of state. It took a lot of the worry out of our week away knowing they were relaxed and happy at home, getting good care and interaction. Highly recommend!

I have a large yard for pets to get excersice and I live in the country. My son is 12, very responsible and love pets, he is my little helper and would not only help take care of your baby but give them extra love!

Madie was amazing. We had a last minute conflict with our dog sitter and she came to the rescue. It was our first time using someone who was not family watching her. She came to our house on Thanksgiving to do a meet and greet which greatly decreased our hesitation about using someone else to watch our fur baby. Madie went above and beyond what we could have asked for. She was professional and extremely kind. She cared for Stella as if she were her own. We will definitely be using her again! Cannot recommend her enough.

Heather was willing to house sit for us during the crazy weather and was flexible when we lost power for awhile. We were so appreciative to have her watching our pups while we were out of town. They were well cared for and happy when we got home!
