Heather is an absolute gem and after how well she did we will be using her for all of our future pet care needs. When we met her our dogs immediately loved her and so did we. She is easy to talk to and had no problem accommodating our dogs special needs. We were gone for about a week and during that time I got consistent updates and photos of our animals. Whenever I messaged her to check on them she was immediately responsive. She left our house just the way she found it and our animals were all very loved and well cared for. I know it is always scary leaving your animals in the care of someone you don't know but we trusted our gut on Heather and we are so glad we did.

Hannah is so patient and loving. We have a big dog and she and Toulah got along great. I would definitely book Hannah again. She was very respectful of our home and gave us good updates on her stay with Toulah.

McKenna watched and took care of my very active English Cocker Spaniel on two separate occasions. She took him on hikes and took very good care of him. I don’t think he wanted to come home after his time there. I highly recommend McKenna.

Anita went above and beyond for our pups while we were away. She was excellent with communication and her calming presence put our anxious rescue dogs at ease. Our flight was cancelled at the last moment and she didn’t hesitate in staying an additional night despite the late notice. Very thankful for Anita and highly recommend her for all pet care services!

Sarah house sat with our 3 dog pack for the weekend and did a great job for us. Our dogs were happy at home while we travelled. Sarah made sure they enjoyed all the comforts they are accustomed to with us at home, helped them burn off energy and from the pictures she left us, all had a great time together.

Nick was fantastic during his stay at our home with our dog. He immediately responded to our texts, he sent photos of our dog while we were away, he took great care of our outdoor plants & garden, and we came home to very clean house. We were so impressed with Nick that we instantly booked him again for another trip this fall. I highly recommend him without any reservations.

About: Having my own dog has taught me firsthand about the importance of patience, consistency, and love in a dog’s life. I know how to create a safe and nurturing environment where your dog will feel at home. Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities. I am committed to providing reliable, trustworthy, and attentive care, ensuring that your dog is happy, healthy, and loved while you’re away. I understand that each dog is unique, with its own personality, preferences, and requirements. I tailor my care to meet the specific needs of your dog, whether it’s a playful puppy, an active adult, or a senior needing special attention. I believe in transparent communication and will provide you with regular updates, including photos and messages, so you can feel reassured and stay connected with your pet during your time apart. I start my day early with morning walks, ensuring dogs get their exercise and outdoor time. This is followed by feeding them a nutritious breakfast. I schedule midday visits to provide additional walks, playtime, and companionship for dogs, especially those who need extra attention or have special requirements. Evenings include a final walk, feeding, and winding down with some quiet time, ensuring dogs are calm and comfortable before bedtime. I maintain a consistent schedule, which helps dogs feel secure and understand what to expect each day. Regular routines include set times for walks, meals, and play. I dedicate time each week to update pet owners with detailed reports and photos, keeping them informed about their pet’s well-being and activities. I ensure my home is pet-friendly, with designated areas for sleeping, eating, and playing. Safety measures like secure fencing and pet-proofed spaces are in place. Pets follow a consistent routine that includes regular walks, feeding times, play sessions, and rest periods. This helps them feel secure and reduces anxiety. I keep a close eye on each pet’s behavior and health, making sure they receive individualized attention and care. I follow specific feeding schedules provided by owners and ensure pets have access to fresh water at all times. I will maintain the pet’s regular routine in the comfort of their own home, which helps reduce stress and anxiety. I follow the specific instructions provided by the pet owner, including feeding schedules, medication administration, and preferred activities. Depending on the service requested, I make regular visits to walk, feed, and play with the pet, ensuring they receive the care and attention they need. I also take care of small household tasks, such as bringing in the mail, watering plants, and ensuring the home is secure. I stay overnight to provide continuous care and companionship, ensuring pets are never left alone and feel secure. I ensure the pet feels comfortable and safe, providing plenty of affection and attention throughout my stay. I keep up with the pet’s daily routine, including morning and evening walks, feeding, and bedtime rituals

Thea took excellent care of our dog Roo. In fact, she may be the only other person our dog has ever actually liked. Thea was loving and caring with Roo, attentive to her needs, and very responsible. We knew we could actually feel relaxed on our vacation knowing that our high-maintenance reactive dog was so well cared for and happy.

Alexis watched one of my dogs and my kitten, and she did a great job. Although we booked her last minute, she came prepared. My dog Elba can be hesitant to greet newcomers at first, but Alexis was patient and positive. Elba typically refuses to walk away from the house when I am gone, and I expected that she would mostly spend time in our yard. However, Alexis went above and beyond - she managed to take Elba on walks to do some of her favorite activities, including going to the pet store and swimming in the creek. She left our house clean and our pets fed and happy.

About: Ive been taking care of dogs my whole life. We actually had Beagle puppies born in our bathroom 13 years ago. I've raised 5 dogs all together. We have 1 left. He's our baby. I will love your dog like my own. I will take care of them like you do. I'm not working so I have plenty of time to walk, play and love on your pet! I babysit my grandkids every Thursday so they woukd have kids to play with if you so choose! I have a fenced area in my yard, a doggie door and a very friendly senior dog.
