“Theresa ended up only watch Riley- since Jax and Jasper went back home. Riley was very calm and happy when we came home. He does have anxiety when we are gone so that is the best sign they did a great job with Riley! Also the house was very tidy. We will definitely have Theresa come again to our home to watch Riley!”
“She did a great job taking care of my French Bulldog. The French Bulldog can be really hard to take care of but she was able to keep him on schedule. Was also alert about him not eating and we were always in contact. I had no worries while I was gone. Thank You!”
About: I have been pet-sitting for a little over 2 years. I check water, food, and keep company to cats and dogs. I also have experience watching/walking puppies as young as 6 weeks. I am currently in school and have a part-time job. I am available for walking, house-sitting and drop-in visits every week day and most weekends! I will go to extreme measures to ensure your animal is safe and happy with me whatever the task. I have experience adapting to many different needs.
About: I grew up in a house with a lot of animals: dogs, cats, horses, turtles, fish. As an adult, I worked in animal husbandry and even rescued a pair of baby raccoons who'd lost their mother. I have a love for all animals, and look forward to getting to know all the quirks and individualities of your pet's personality! I currently work from home, so your pets can enjoy full supervision throughout the day, with plenty of breaks for snuggles, snacks and play time. As a boarder, my home is spacious and can be easily divided to accommodate multiple pets. I have three bedrooms, two bathrooms, two porches and a backyard for your fur babies to explore. Alternatively, I also offer petsitting and housesitting services in your home, where I'm happy to water plants, clean up messes and generally leave your space better than I found it!
About: More than just pet sitting, I offer a loving, personalized experience, ensuring your pet feels safe, happy, and cherished while you're away. Regular updates included! I am a recently graduated college student and am a club coach. Sometimes I am away but I am more than happy and willing to work with you and your furry friends! As you wish, I can stay with your pets or drop by for a visit! Whatever is best fit for you! I am flexible and able to make things work!
“Perry was great with my German Shepherd Juneau! She came to my home and spent the night with her while I had an outpatient procedure. Juneau takes a bit to warm up to new people and I usually have her muzzled when she meets someone new . Perry stayed calm and collected with her and was able to feed her treats of chicken ( her absolute favorite ) thru the muzzle . There was one mishap with the muzzle and the kennel , however Perry was able to calmly and safely remove the muzzle for Juneau without incident . She was also great about sending me periodic updates during her time with Juneau and always responded promptly to any of my requests for communication as well as coming a few days prior to the stay to meets us . I would definitely use Perry’s services again and would highly recommend that you giver her a try !”
About: I have taken care of my own dog as well as taken family friends dogs on walks and runs. I am currently training for a half marathon, so if your dogs loves long runs or long walks I would love to help them get outside and exercise. I currently am working part time on top of school. Most days I can take dogs on a walk or run in the morning to later afternoon! I currently live in an apartment where pets are not allowed, so for now I will stick to taking dogs on walks and runs whether that’s around a safe neighborhood or at a park.
“Storm was an absolutely incredible pet sitter! She was very easy to contact and gave lots of updates while I was out of town and my dog loved her. :) He even got a handmade report card at the end of her stay! I had such peace of mind knowing he was in her care.”
