About: I've taken care of animals since I was a child. I have 6 years of experience working as a Veterinary Assistant, so I'm comfortable around animals regardless of size. My family and friends have entrusted me to care for their young pets as well as their older ones. I have a Rottweiler, a Yorkie, and 4 cats, so I don't shy away from many animals! I work Monday-Thursday and typically get off between 1-2pm, and will be available for dog walking and check ins after that time. Starting Friday morning and through the weekend, I am available for overnight house sitting! I understand feeling anxious entrusting your pet to a stranger, but I'll do everything I can to make your pet feel as loved as possible. I'll make sure your pet gets their steps in (if dog walking). The water bowl will never run dry, and I will diligently handle client requests to make sure their pet is as comfortable as possible.

Jade did a great job! This is the first time that my wife and I, had a cat/house sitter and we were very fortunate to have found Jade. She was excellent. The kiddies loved her and warmed up to her very quickly. She kept the house clean and abided by our rules during her stay. She sent us pictures of our babies, while we were gone, and kept us informed of what was happening everyday. I feel that she is very trustworthy and I would recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter. We plan on using her again.

Jocelyn was absolutely amazing with my two senior bulldogs! She took care of all the special needs they have like eye drops and medications, and even got up in the middle of the night for a one of my dogs potty break. She just exceeded my expectations in every way, even being willing to put some water on some new plants, which was not part of the job. I came home to a clean house, and my dogs were in great shape. I definitely recommend her and will be using her again!!

Terri is absolutely our new favorite petsitter. She housesat our dog for 5 days. Our dog had lots of needs emotionally and physically and she was able to accommodate our pet and provide the attention, time, and medication hd needed. Terri left our home in the way we left it, and she took good care of our little dog. She is an excellent communicator and went above and beyond. I am very particular and i would absolutely recommend this sitter and we will use her again and again. Thank you Terri! ?

About: My dad always had and trained dogs when I was growing up. I enjoy spending time with them and getting to know their personalities. Dogs are a wonderful part of a family and teach us about relationships. I work 4 days a week. I’m available 24/7 Friday, Saturday & Sunday. I’m also available Thursday evenings after 6 pm. I live in a pet approved apartment complex where we have plenty of walking areas for pets. They will need to be leash trained or small enough I can carry them to our fenced in pet area for potty/ outdoor play time. I have two cats but have no problem with keeping them put up in my bedroom while your pet is staying with me. They are both spayed and neutered and have their vaccines. I would love to have your pet stay or I can come to you.

My cat has stranger danger syndrome :-) so to get photos from Jamie of Mama Cat interacting with her was tremendous. I knew I had picked the right person to care for precious Mama Cat! I hope to be able to request Jamie again and again and again. Thank you, Jamie, for being Mama Cat's companion while I was away.

About: I’m really good with both puppies and older pets because I know they need extra attention and patience.

About: I’ve taken care of all types of animals ranging from dogs, cats, chickens, and lizards! We’ve had animals in my own family for as long as i can remember we currently have a dog and chickens and maybe cows soon! I have a personal love for animals! If for some reason my dog Oliver doesn’t get along with your pet I live in a separated part of the house so it will be very easy for me to keep them out of contact. I’m currently working full time but i’m off most saturdays and mondays, and then just whenever else they do not schedule me! I’m very communicative and will work with you as best I can! I care for my own pets with love and care making sure they always have what they need and definitely things they want too lol! In others homes I would show them the same love as my own pets and follow whatever instructions left to a T.

Jennifer was great with our two dogs while we were out of town for 4 days. We have one dog who has some special needs and she was excellent about giving him his meds and keeping us updated along the way. We came home to two happy pups and our house just as we left it! I wouldn’t hesitate to hire Jennifer again. Thank you!

Excellent experience from start to finish. Our sitter was punctual, communicative, and clearly experienced with dogs. Bulliet and Kingo both require a bit of individual attention, and our sitter handled that perfectly. The house was spotless when we returned, and our dogs were happy and calm. Highly recommend for anyone looking for reliable, caring pet care.

Sydney is very friendly and the dogs loved her. We had a rocky start in communication due to both our schedules. She did send pictures of the dogs and asked what I wanted to do with them due to the weather the next day. Over all a good experience.
