Brittany took great care of Stark! He is a handful at times but she met every one of his physical and mental needs and communicated well while I was traveling.

Jenna made us feel so comfortable leaving our new puppy for the first time; she was attentive to our explanations of his routine. Her manner is gentle, kind, and friendly. Our puppy was happy and bouncy when we got home! We'll definitely book Jenna again. It's such a relief to find someone you feel safe having in your home, that you sense you can trust. Highly recommended.

I can’t say enough about Kaitlyn. She kept me up to date non stop sometimes hourly. Unfortunately she had to deal with a plumbing emergency at my house, I had no cell service only WiFi and she handled everything with the plumbers, completely out of her responsibility. She cared about my crew like no one I’ve ever had in the past. Not only did she take care of my crew, 3 dogs, a cat, and a bird, she cleaned my house. I was out of the country and had no reception at times and she still kept me updated. Sent pics daily. She’s honestly amazing!!!! When I got home she even had Christmas presents for the dogs. Do not hesitate to hire her. She’s absolutely amazing and I will definitely rehire her and recommend her to everyone that’s looking for someone. Thanks Kaitlyn. A thousand thanks actually. 💜

Jenessa has grown up her entire life taking care of animals. She grew up on a farm and has raised kittens, dogs, horses and all farm animals. She is extremely responsible and loving with her own pets. They are her family so she understands what people's fur babies mean to them. She's also worked in the industry so she understands health and nutritional needs as well. She is a very well rounded,experienced and responsible young woman that takes every job seriously and with the upmost respect for each situation.

I cannot recommend Evelyn enough for the exceptional care and love she has provided for my dogs over the years. Evelyn creates a safe, nurturing environment where my dogs feel completely at home. It's such a relief to know my dogs are in such capable hands, surrounded by Evelyn's kindness and genuine affection. Evelyn's dedication and attention to detail make all the difference. I always know my dogs are happy and well cared for when they're with her. The last time Evelyn watched my dogs she left a two page handwritten review on how the dogs did for a week that we went on vacation. I was very impressed with this as well as her going over and above with cleaning up after the dogs (accident on carpet) and walking into a clean house. Stop looking and give Evelyn a try! She will not disappoint!

While I was out of town Kalila came over to my house every few hours to take care of my Rottie, Jake. He has the worst anxiety so I did not want him going to a daycare while I was gone. She did a stellar job with his check ins! I got so many photos every time she went by the house. Jake is normally very weary of people but for some reason he just really likes her. He runs right up to her as excited as can be. Next time I go on a trip, Kalila will be my girl!!

Cheryl did a great job with Whiskey. She came ahead of time to meet him and see where his food, treats, toys, etc are at my house. She showed up on time, stayed overnight with him, gave him his meds 2x per day and left the house better than it was when she got here. Very happy with her service.

About: I have dog sat, for family, friends and have even picked up strays and fostered them until I could find them a good home. I have had dogs since the day I was born. I don’t currently have one. That is why I’m looking forward to meeting yours. My schedule fits in anytime day or night. Looking for the right family to help out when ever they are in need. Including walking or just being around them for company. I don’t have a fenced in yard, I do have a huge field for them to run and play. I do have leashes, and tethering.

I have a 3 year old pit bull, Smokey, who tore a muscle in his leg almost 2 years ago. We spent a lot on therapy, which was definitely helping, but he was never quite the playful puppy he was before his injury. The first time Kelly came over, she sat down and we were chatting Smokey walked over to Kelly and as we talked she casually started massaging him. When she made it towards the hurt leg, she made verbal note of the stiffness in his leg and proceeded to have Smokey lie down. She sat on the floor, massaging him for about an hour. When she was ready to go, he jumped up and was immediately the puppy he was before! He was pouncing and jumping all over the place and didn’t want her to leave. She comes over once a week and works her magic on Smokey, bringing out the puppy love i treasure. Kelly is a unique soul with a gift. Smokey, my husband and I are so happy Kelly is in our lives. She has truly made a difference in our boy’s life.

Tessa was so kind as to watch my pup for the weekend. I did get text updates and did not have to worry about my pup’s food or safety. The reason I gave a 4 star instead of 5 is because I spent an entire day cleaning my home so this would be nice and clean when she arrived. While I knew she and her daughter would be staying at my house, my ring camera said otherwise. The whole family stayed at my house all weekend. I would not have minded this had it been mentioned up front and had there been no further concerns…however upon my return home the following was present: my living room was a mess, there were dirty tissues in one of my bins by the couch, there were food stains on the couch, all of my placemats at the dinner table had red koolaid stains on them (nobody told me this happened and it ruined my placemats…$100 worth and stained my couch), there were red koolaid colored fingerprints that stained my pantry door. I tried to scrub it off and now have to repaint. While the overall service pertaining to my dog and Tessa’s kindness where 100% excellent, I am not made of money and work very hard to provide for myself since I have one income…and I was very very very upset and sad when I returned home to find my house left in this condition. Tessa once again, thank you for watching my sweet girl. I know having a family is tough and busy when also being a dog sitter…please don’t be upset. I just am so sad that I had to come home to ruined $100 worth of placements, couch, door, etc and nobody mentioned this to me at all. I now have to fork out money to get new placemats, clean my couch, and paint my door. That is unfair to me as a paying customer. I’m also upset that you weren’t straightforward with me about your whole family being there instead of just you and your daughter as our messages confirmed. I would not have had an issue if I was told this upfront and my house/items that I work 60+ hrs/week for weren’t destroyed when I got home.

Carli watched my chocolate lab for the weekend and she was amazing! She walked him, played with him, and fed him. She sent me pictures each visit to calm my nerves. When I came back my dog was still so happy, I could tell he was in great hands.
