Gabbi was AMAZING with my animals. She watched my two dogs, cat, and fed some of my reptiles. She went slow with my fearful dog so she could warm up to Gabbi. Gabbi updated me daily to let me know what was going on! We also had a snow storm pass by and Gabbi made sure my dogs were ok in the snow and wiped their paws when coming in. She also shoveled my driveway which she did not need to do but did it anyway!! I appreciate everything she did for me and will be definitely rebooking with her!

Brooke took excellent care of my dogs for almost a week. She was responsive and cared responsibly for my two senior dogs who can be demanding and a bit spoiled. Communication was great and she was the perfect house guest. Will definitely trust Brooke with my dogs next time. She is a thoughtful and caring pet sitter I would highly recommend to friends and family.

Trust. I have implicit trust that Haley will do what she needs to do to care for and protect my dogs and home. It's hard to find good reliable individuals these days. I look forward to continuing to utilize her professional services.

She was absolutely fantastic. Had her watch our pup for 8 days straight at our house. She gave us tons of updates and pictures and asked questions when needed. Thank god Emily is so patient because our dog gave her a really hard time. Also our house was clean when we got home! Will use her again for sure if she isn’t booked up.

Bailey is amazing!! She cared for our doggies and cat like we would and they love her. She also looked after our home which was an added bonus and so appreciated! Being gone for an extended period of time and come home to a clean house - again so very much appreciated- above and beyond the call - thank you and we will definitely be booking again

About: I've had my own cats for almost 6 years, I've volunteered at the Belleville Area Humane Society for around 4 months, and I do occasional dogsitting and housesitting for family friends when needed. I have a summer job that starts on May 26th, and I have training from 9-4 on May 17th and 23rd. I'm unsure of which days I'll be working yet, so I will let you know when I can what my schedule will be. I will be completely free on weekends aside from outside events. I appreciate detailed instructions on any specifics needed when caring for your pets, such as medications, feeding times, bathroom breaks, regular walks, or any other schedule they need.

About: I've had pets around me since I was a baby. I had dogs growing up, and I've been around them ever since. I've been around 20 pound dogs, to 120 pound dogs, nothing is too much or too little for me. Currently I don't have a job, but I am just looking around at dog walking agin. I am supposed to go into the service in about a month, so im trying to make some extra money before I ship off! In my house, I have a fenced in yard, that keeps my pitbull safe, and happy. I would love to be in someone’s house where they have a fenced in yard, but I know that’s not ideal for everyone. If they don’t that’s perfectly fine, we just take the fur baby out in a leash to be outside then!

Madison was an excellent sitter and cared for my pets like they were her own! She is very professional, has excellent communication, and asked detailed questions to ensure everything was covered. Madison played fetch with them and gave them cuddles and checked on them during her work lunch breaks. Seriously, would book her again!!

Latasha was wonderful! From the beginning she came for a meet and greet and got down on the floor with my Percy! She asked very specific questions about his routine and wanted to ensure he was as comfortable as possible. During her stay she was very interactive with Percy. Took him on outings and walks and made sure he had plenty of play time and attention. On a night of a storm she let Percy sleep in bed with her to help comfort him!! Any concerns she had she messaged me immediately. She was great about sending updates and pictures to make sure I felt he was in good hands which definitely decreased my worries. Latasha treated my home with respect and left my home just as she found it. She even helped me with my newly planted garden to ensure it stayed watered while I was away. I will definitely use Latasha again in the future.

Abigail was fantastic! It’s the first time we’ve left our dog and cat since moving here and we needed to feel really comfortable. Abigail communicated with us often and sent pictures frequently. She also left our place nicer than we left it. So happy to have found Abigail and 100% recommend.

About: Hi! My name is Olivia. I’m a 25 year old Pharmacy Technician currently going to school for Psychology. I love pets of all kinds and I’ve been taking care of cats, dogs, reptiles, and amphibians for my whole life! I love animals so much the only thing stopping me from becoming a Vet is having to put them down. I personally have two cats Mischief and Diva that get along very well with other cats. If my cats are a problem, they can easily be put away while your pets are at my home! I’m a very friendly, outgoing, and passionate person just looking for some pets to love, cuddle, and walk in my free time for some extra cash. They say if you love your job you’ll never work a day in your life! I work part-time at CVS Pharmacy located 10 minutes from my house. My hours of availability are: Monday: 5AM-7AM & 6PM-7PM Tuesday/Thursday: 5AM-7AM Wednesday/Friday: 5AM-8AM & 3PM-7PM Saturday/Sunday: All day For those requiring a boarding service, please note that I will not be available to tend to your pet **during the day outside of the specified hours above. I do have a Cat Cam for close monitoring while away. **Pets will continue to be tended to during the evening hours past 7pm. The environment contains a Cat Cam for close monitoring while away, 7ft cat tree, an automated litter box, free feeding kibble, filtered water fountain, many interactive toys, a window mounted bird feeder for some live CatTV, as well as some cat grass and lemonbalm plants to nibble on. I hope to make every experience the most enjoyable experience for both you and your furry friend(s)! My apartment features a sizable grassy courtyard for pets who like to spend some time outdoors, trips outside will always be closely monitored.

About: I have been a dog mommy for over 25 years, and have taken care of the pets of friends and family forever. I’m especially partial to dogs, but cats are great too…once they deign to allow me to enter their kingdom 😁. I recently had to say goodbye to me soul mate dog, so I have a lot of love to give your fur babies. Can’t wait to meet them! I’m worked from home for 6 years, and I’m currently between roles. I have nothing but time to dedicate to loving on your darling pets. I am active for those who like to walk, and I enjoy my down time cuddles up on the couch with a book and a sweet sleepy dog or cat. Let’s keep your babies at home where they are comfortable! I can come to your home and feed, walk, and give them outside time. Or, if you prefer, I can stay at your home with them while you’re gone. I’m a rule follower, so your house rules will be strictly adhered to, no question! If your pup is high energy and needs lots of walks, let’s go - I’m on a fitness journey myself! If they are in charge and have a designated spot on the couch, I’ll cozy up wherever they “tell” me I can. I just miss my doggo, and I think this is the best way for me to start to heal from that loss. Let me lavish love on yours!

This is the second time Catelyn has stayed the night with our pup, Ruby. She was excellent, as we knew she would be! She played ball with Rubyeven when it was 15°! She sent us timely pupdates, and Ruby was smiling in every one of them. Needless to say she LOVES Catelyn.. and so do we! She’ll be hearing from us again soon! 😆
