Jade has been amazing with Winston and Wyatt! She’s super trustworthy, kind, and always makes me feel at ease when I’m away. I can tell my pups are in great hands every time. So thankful to have found someone I can rely on—I’ll definitely keep booking with her!

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.

We feel so fortunate to have found Sydni to watch our 2 GSDs! She’s sweet, caring, and most importantly—responsible. We returned to some extremely happy and relaxed pups and a tidy house. Loved the pics she would send of the dogs and catch us up on their day. Thanks so much for being such a great sitter! Now, we can feel more at ease about leaving our fur kids and we’re glad we found her!

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my dedication to providing personalized care for each dog. I have extensive experience in training puppies, ensuring they develop good habits early on. Additionally, I specialize in senior dog care, offering gentle and attentive support for older pets. My approach is all about understanding each dog's unique needs and making sure they feel coming and loved while you're away. Pet care is a big part of my daily routine. I make sure to set aside time every day for feeding, walking, and playing with my furry friends. It's essential to me to prioritize their well-being and happiness, so I always make sure they get the attention and care they need. Whether it's a quick walk in the morning or some playtime in the evening, I love being there for them and making sure they feel loved and cared for. When I'm caring for pets in my own home, I make sure to create a safe and comfy environment. I have designated spaces for them to sleep, play, and eat. I keep a close eye on them and make sure they get plenty of exercise and love. At a client's home, I stick to the pet's regular routine as much as possible. I follow any specific instructions the owner gives me to make sure their pet feels comfortable and secure. Whether it's feeding schedules, medication, or favorite toys, I make sure to keep everything consistent so the pet feels right at home.

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.

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life growing up with dogs, cats, and even small animals gave me a strong foundation in compassionate and attentive pet care. Over the years, I’ve cared for pets through while others travel, where I stayed in people’s homes and looked after their animals like they were my own. I’ve also spent time fostering animals, helping them adjust to new environments and providing them with love and routine. Whether it's feeding, walking, playtime, or just companionship, I’m experienced and comfortable with pets of all sizes and temperaments from playful puppies to shy rescues Pets are naturally part of my daily life! I have two cats of my own and have fostered animals in the past, so caring for pets is already built into my routine. Whether it's feeding, cleaning, playing, or giving love and attention, I make time each day to ensure animals feel safe and happy. I'm home often, which allows me to give pets the consistent care and companionship they deserve throughout the day. In my home, pets are treated like family. I offer a calm, welcoming environment with a fully fenced backyard where dogs can safely explore or relax. We also have a peaceful pond area that many pets enjoy watching. I follow each pet’s routine closely whether it’s feeding, walks, playtime, or just quiet companionship. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always aim to keep their routine consistent, give them comfort, and respect their space like it’s my own.

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.
