Louise was terrific to work with and gave me such a sense of relief that I didn’t have to worry about my two dogs while I was away. She was flexible with our changing schedule and even dashed over quickly when I said we were coming home early to clean up the back yard a bit which she didn’t have to do, but it we appreciated. Our dogs really liked her too!

Absolutely excellent. We went on a long trip to Asia and the biggest thing for me was that I could actually enjoy my trip because I knew they were in great hands. She walked our dog daily in addition to playing with her outside in the backyard and really helped get her energy out and quality time. She was patient and kind with our cats and did an excellent job in finding ways to get them to take their medicine (3 of the 4 cats take medication). She cleaned our house throughout the stay but did a final clean on the day we got back and that was such a huge plus for us. It was nice coming home to happy animals and a clean house in order. So happy we found Tara and can’t wait to have her pet sit again.

Janrose was phenomenal with my cat Luna! She was very communicative and would send update pictures and videos of Luna, and was able to administer her oral medication without any problems. She went above and beyond in accommodating for Luna’s anxiety, which was majorly appreciated. I highly recommend any pet owner in need of a sitter or caretaker to consider Janrose for their future pet needs!!!

About: Hello! I am an experienced and enthusiastic dog lover. I have had multiple family dogs, plus have 4 years of experience fostering rescue dogs from 8 weeks old to seniors. I would love to be your go-to for all of your furry friend’s needs! I am currently studying to take my nursing licensure exam and do not start working until the end of October. I can accommodate any day/time! My current townhome does not allow pets, so I cannot use my home to care for your beloved pup. However, I can come to you for dog walking, potty breaks, and feedings! Or for any other needs they may have.

Brooke has taken great care of my dog, Hunny, while I was out of town! She was so friendly, communicative, and kept Hunny on her normal routine while I was away. Brooke also gave updates and pictures of their activities. Hunny loved hanging with Brooke for a little girls’ weekend :)

Erica was amazing! She took great care of my older rabbit, and was flexible when we had to reschedule drop-in visits due to cancelled flights. She sent photos of my bunny every visit, and he was a very happy bun when we got home!

Kayleigh is an excellent cat care taker -- she always takes pictures of my boys to show me and they look so happy! One of my cats takes medication and she gives it to him every night, no problem. She also has experience taking care of cats that don't get along, which is a life saver!

10/10 would recommend! Harmony was great with our 2 adult, male cats while we were on vacation. She coaxed our shy cat out of hiding on her first visit and gave our social cat lots of attention. This is truly incredible because the shy cat does not come out for anyone new! She sent pictures and notes every visit, which increased our peace of mind that the cats were doing well without us. Harmony managed our cat’s different special diets without issues and we came home to two very happy cats. We will definitely rebook with Harmony in the future.
