“Absolutely wonderful with my girl! My timid pup warmed right up to her, which usually does NOT happen so quickly, and loved the company. Kyla was responsive, communicative and was really great working with. Will definitely book with her again!”
“Jeff did a great job watching my two cats, making sure they got their food, meds, and lots of snuggle time or just time with some company. He was very responsive, was respectful of all my requests - including a bit of a crazy food/med routine - and I could tell my cats really bonded with him and were happy to see him. It's always such a relief knowing your pets are being well cared for while you're away!”

“Cat was a dream to work with. Super communicative, and spent a lot of time with our dog at each check in! After our usual sitter moved away I was nervous about finding someone new but I was immediately relieved by Cat’s dedication and her obvious love for dogs. Her notes after each check-In made me chuckle too. I think we found our new regular sitter!”

About: I have had dogs, cats and birds my entire life. I will treat your fur babies as I would treat my own. Nothing but love I am at home all day as I am an artist. And work from home. I work out of the home 3 evenings a week. I have a large back yard. It is not fenced in but I do have a 25ft lead or I can simply walk them. I have 2 pet parakeets and a Great Dane that recently went to heaven at almost 12. Pets are always allowed on my couches and beds and I miss the snuggles.
About: I am a proud parent of a 5 year old pug I got in 2018.I am also a proud co-parent of my girlfriend 3 year old Golden Doodle Milo that’s she got as a puppy as well. I have also cared for various friends and even coworkers animals while they went on vacation. I work full-time Monday Through Friday from 7am-3pm I am available to do checks in during the week after I get off and I’m always available all day on weekends On the weekend I always available due to be being off i currently live in a apartment my girlfriend has a house with a huge backyard and a golden doodle who loves to make new friends
About: Hi, my name is Yae, and I’m a devoted ally to your furry friends! I've been caring for pets my entire life, growing up surrounded by dogs of all shapes and sizes. Whether big or small, I love them all! Currently, I have a well-trained and socialized Rottweiler who adores playing with friendly dogs and cats. If your pet isn't the most sociable, no worries at all—I can easily separate them to ensure everyone feels comfortable. In some cases, my dog may not be with me, so just let me know, and I’ll be all theirs for the day! Your pet's happiness and well-being are my top priority! I work from home so I’m available to look after your pet daily. If there’s a moment where I have to leave I can crate the baby if that’s okay with the owner but I will make sure that it isn’t super long. I’m pretty flexible throughout the week to look after your pet, so just let me know and we should be able to work something out. I live in a nice neighborhood. Many of neighbors have pets. Plenty of space for them to play and take them out for walks at anytime. I also have a nice fenced in backyard for the pups to run around in. In home I have plenty of room for them to roam as they please I don’t mind them on my furniture. I’m also flexible to look after the owners dogs at their space or just drop in for a little walk.

He watches Sasha so carefully while she interacts with other dogs, and he intercedes perfectly to deescalate any tensions that may pop up. All the dogs at the dog park like and respect Yae. They look to him for guidance and direction. My dog Bennie trusts Yae almost as much as me. I am pretty sure, if I were not around, Bennie would choose Yae to live with! Make your pet extra happy and start working with Yae today!!”
