“Tania is the best! This is the second time she’s been our sitter and both times have been wonderful! We have two Great Danes and they’re not exactly the easiest, but she handles them so well. I would totally recommend Tania to be your sitter!”
“Hannah did a fantastic job watching my dog and cat and house sitting for two nights. She was very conscientious of my pets’ needs and took great care of them. I will definitely use her services again and highly recommend her.”
“Amazing with my rotties! They take some time to get to know people but not Kylee! Loved her right away! Will give updates as often as you want. Highly recommend ! She’s the best!”
“This is the 2nd time Abigail sat for Minnie, and like the 1st time she was outstanding. Minnie was excited to see Abigail and everything went great. It was so nice knowing Abigail was with Minnie, allowing us to enjoy a movie and dinner. We'll continue to ask Abigail to sit for Minnie in the future.”
“Sterling was AWESOME! Even with booking last minute she was able to stop by and meet us / our pups the same day, which was 1 day before we were leaving town! She was attentive to the pups, followed our instructions perfectly, kept us updated with pics/texts and the pups were sad to see her go! I have to say she treated our pups like they were hers! I cannot recommend her enough!”
“It's wonderful to have found a pet sitter who cares for my pets like family! Logan creates a familiar and comfortable environment that can significantly reduce anxiety in pets, and regular feeding routines help maintain their weight. This is the first time I went out of town and my dog didn't lose weight. Logan sent me photos everyday which made me happy. I will definitely use Jordan as a pet sitter again. Highly recommended!”
About: I've been around dogs my entire life since my dad started as a K9 handler in the Navy, and is now the program manager, so I have some experience in training basic commands. I've watched many different types of dogs of every size and age from puppies to powdered face seniors. I volunteered for a short while which gave me walking, cage clean up, & bathing experience. I am currently a full time student but with my current schedule I am available all summer every day & weekend. I have plenty of free time I prefer to spend with dogs. I currently can't have my own fur baby but I can take care of every one I meet as my own. To spend quality time with them by playing, brushing, washing, walking or staying in, routine feedings, & most importantly providing communication.
