Enjoyed meeting Jillian for our meet and greet. She has a good chemistry with our dogs. We have two "Bullys" and a geriatric Brittany. She did well with them all. Our bullies can be rough players at times, but Jillian didn't shy away from this. They love cuddles but need a confident handler. She seems to do well with both roles. We were comfortable with our first experience and have already booked her again. We liked the secure feeling of having a trustworthy person watching our 4 legged kids. Would recommend her.

Annabelle was awesome!! She house sat for over a week while I was out of state. My dog is a retired K9, so he's very high drive and high energy. She was absolutely fantastic with him, and he LOVED her. This was my first time leaving him in the care of someone new and she was perfect. On top of that, she left the house spotless, had great communication the entire time, and even went above and beyond by putting ointment on his paw pad after he got a little cut while playing. I couldn't recommend her highly enough.

Mikayla was absolutely amazing with our fur babies! She kept our high energy dog well played with, and was great understanding our grumpy cat. She was active with the pets and sent us great videos and pictures. She communicated with us immediately and left our house better than when she came. We greatly appreciated her and would rebook her in the future.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs, kitties, and farm animals since I was 12 years old. Family, friends, and neighbors have trusted me for years to ensure their fur babies are well taken care of while they are away, whether it’s a weekend or a week. What sets me apart from other sitters is that I’m a reliable and attentive animal lover who understands that every pet has its own personality and needs. I prioritize safety, consistency, and comfort, making sure pets feel secure while you’re away. With a strong sense of responsibility and genuine care for animals, I treat every pet as if they were my own—providing not just basic care, but companionship and trust you can count on. I work a full time job 3 days a week for 12.5 hour shifts. It is understandable if that deters animals owners away from choosing me. On the days off, the fur babies will get all the love I can give them! When I’m on a sitting job, I always stay at the clients home for the duration of the sitting job so their fur babies are in the comfort of their own home with no environment changes.

About: I have many years training young pets (even cats!) and accommodating for senior animals, especially larger breeds. Larger breeds of dogs are definitely my specialty aswell. I’m currently working part-time (sometimes!) and have an extremely open and flexible schedule, and having the opportunity to help people with their fur family members sounds very fulfilling I have years of dog training experience and used to train service dogs as a child, owning a very well trained and loved dog for over 10 years. During that time I’ve had experience caring for multiple cats with many accommodations due to our oldest being 16 and our youngest being a high maintenance sphinx (just over a year)
