Ali did a fabulous job! She was flexible, accommodating and able to coax out a shy cat. I am not out of town much, but, she's my preferred caregiver the next time around!

Nancy’s pet sitting was awesome! She takes the time to make notes and her attention to detail is amazing! The communication and updates were great. I felt very confident and comfortable with Nancy coming into my home and caring for my cat Luka. I will definitely look to her again and highly recommend her services!

About: I’ve taken care of many animals for some time now whether it be lizards, cats, dogs, or fish. Family and friends could always put their trust in me when I take care of their pets. I own a cat so I take care of him daily, feed him twice a day, give him toys, bathe him ever so often (depending if he goes outside), brush him because he has long fur. So he fits right in with my schedule and I give him cuddles all the time! I care for my pet everyday! I feed him twice a day ( morning and night) maybe a few treats, I’ll bathe him when needed but not too often cause it hurts their fur coat, clip his nails when needed, brush him just about everyday. I will especially give him cuddles whenever I see him!

About: I've grown up surrounded by dogs and cats. I've dealt with every nook and cranny when it comes to caring for animals. As an aspiring vet-technician in college, I want to build on my career around animals. If you're looking for someone who enjoys playing with your animals and caring for them at the same time you've found the right person! I currently go to community college with a 15 minute commute from my house! This is the only job I have and aside from school, I am widely available and willing to drive for your pet! I care for my own pets by actively giving them constant attention! I am extroverted when it comes to pets and I love them more than anything. Throughout my life I've learned dog/cat body language and how to make them the most happy and comfortable.

About: I have been a dog/cat/house sitter for my family and friends for over 20 yrs. I will take care of your pets like my own I currently have a lot of time on my hands. I had to say goodbye to my dog last year and wanted to help other owners with theirs until I’m ready to adopt one of my own. That’s going to take some time. I’m I will have a lot of fun with pet(s). I enjoy going to the park or a hiking trail or staying in the backyard. They will be cared for and receive many hags and kisses. I understand the importance of a routine for some pets and will do whatever I can to keep them safe and happy.

About: My boyfriend and I have always had animals in our lives. Growing up he lived on a farm with dogs, cats, goats, pigs etc. and I have had dogs and cats my whole life. We currently have 2 beautiful Great Danes, a bunch of rabbits, outside kitties, and a chinchilla! Our dogs love people, small animals, and would love a bigger dog to run around with. We would love to cuddle with your fur babies, go for walks, or just play in the fenced yard! With the holidays coming up we know how hard it is to find a reliable place for your dog to relax and stay at but we will make sure they get all the attention and time that they need while you’re away! We currently work 4 days a week leaving Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday to watch and care for your animals. My boyfriend is an early riser and I’m a night owl, so your pet will have plenty of time to get the care they need. We have a bunch of free time around the holidays as well! We have a 2 story house with lots of room for them to lay around and have their own space if needed. We also have a large backyard that is fenced off already for our dogs.

Everything went great. Ali was very accommodating when we had to change our schedule three times, first due to a change in plans and then because we left later than anticipated after we all got sick.

Nancy was wonderful! A true professional and dedicated pet lover. The kitties were well taken care of, both physically and with attention. Vincent is a people person, DJ was close by, and even Tulsi showed her face. DJ and Tusli are ferals, not usually comfy around strangers. 2 thumbs up!!
