Ella was so communicative and put us at ease for our cat’s longest stay at home without us. She was reliable, always sent detailed updates on her visits, and really went above and beyond for us. Highly recommend!

Josh was absolutely brilliant. Extremely professional, responsible and reliable. Great communicator with humans and animals alike (lots of fun photos while we were away). He looked after our two cats for 4 days and we couldn't have been happier. When we returned home our cats were calm, well-fed and happy - food dishes were washed and litter box area was tidy. Josh will be my first choice from now on when we have to leave our cats next time.

Marissa was very professional and did a wonderful job caring for my cat Eddie. Eddie is skeptical of strangers and hasn't felt comfortable approaching everyone who's watched him, which means he can be pretty stressed by the time I return. Within the first visit Eddie was comfortable approaching Marissa for treats/scratches, and his stress was very low when I returned!

Gabrielle is a delight to work with. I am a volunteer coordinator for a bulldog rescue and she has walked many of our dogs. The dogs are always happy with wagging tails when they see her. I would highly recommend her as a dog walker.

Mildred is amazing! She did house visits for our Leonberger for a long weekend while we were away. She definitely gave our Phoebe the love and attention she craves, and we knew she was in good hands. Also appreciated the frequent pictures and updates.

Taylor is our number 1 pet sitter. She is reliable and takes such good care of our sweet pup. Her calming presence keeps our anxious pup at ease. She gives our pup her undivided attention and lets our pup lead the activities. I can’t recommend Taylor enough.

Five stars isn't enough I would give Bridget eleven stars if I could, she is wonderful with the dogs, communicates outstandingly well and went above and beyond with the dogs and taking care of any issues with the house as well. We are very excited we found her and looking forward to working with her again.

About: Ive been around animals since I was young. My puppy is turning 4 this year, his name is Alvah! Since having him i’ve developed skills in training puppies, grooming, walking, bathing, feeding, playing, and overall care that animals deserve. I’ve been around blind dogs and senior animals who need medications or extra support. The number one thing i’ve learned is listening to my intuition. An animals demeanor, look in their eyes, body language, and energy says more than words ever could. Sometimes it feels like I know that they are thinking! I believe there is something special about connecting with another creature outside of your own species. That being said I adore all animals of any gender, size, age, condition, and personality:) I currently work two jobs, both part time. My days off are Mondays and Tuesdays. Wednesday and Thursday I tend to work night shifts but that is not consistent as my schedule changes based on what my job needs. Friday-Sunday I work during the day and usually have the evenings to myself after 4pm. On the bright side both of my jobs are flexible and understanding. If there are any concerns about time or availability please feel free to communicate that with me and we can work it out! I live in a basement apartment, there is a fenced yard. The neighborhood is great for walks, and there are fun trails in the area. The family I rent from does have a small high energy dog, but it is rare that we are in the backyard at the same time. As for my puppy he goes back and forth between my family and I. So if your pet likes company or is better alone, either works! I try to walk him 2-3 times a day and he goes out to do his business every 1-2 hours. If there are certain instructions you have for your pet or home rest assured I will follow them! I am a clean and organized person in my home and in others. I believe communication and honesty is so important, for both parties to feel safe and happy.

I can’t recommend Stevie enough to watch my dog, Lady Bird—she’s the most responsible and caring dog owner I know! Stevie treats every dog like her own, and her attention to detail is unmatched. She ensures Lady Bird is happy, well-exercised, and safe, always going above and beyond to make sure her needs are met. Knowing how much Stevie adores dogs and prioritizes their well-being, I feel completely at ease leaving Lady Bird in her care. She’s truly the best!
