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.

Ross was great! All of our pets were well taken care of the whole time we were out of town. Our dogs are very particular about their routines so it was great to find someone who could stay with them all weekend. We’re definitely making Ross our go to sitter when we leave town.

About: I worked at a pet resort for 5 years consecutively. I worked my way up from doggy daycare attendant to a manager. I made lots of meaningful relationships with pets and their pet parents. Pet care is something I want to make a full time career. I genuinely enjoy working with animals, building trust with pets and owners, and being part of their daily routine. I’m looking for an opportunity where I can grow long term in the industry. I have 2 cats and 1 dog. I absolutely adore my animals and treat them like family. I do the same with my clients because I want them to know their pets and homes are in good/safe care with me.

Zach was amazing with Acacia, she’s super timid and he was very patient with her. I loved receiving photos and updates from him, and he really eased my mind while I was away from Acacia. I hope to work with Zach more in the future! 10/10 service. He also left the house exactly as we asked!

About: I volunteer at the APA animal shelter where I walk and play with all types of dogs. I have also taken care of a wide variety of animals including lizards, fish, kittens (2 weeks old), puppies, and turtles! I’m currently working part-time at a restaurant so I have plenty of time to spend time with your animals and make sure they are well taken care of! I give all pets love and affection with different pets needing different things! For dogs I love to take them for walks and give them lots of belly scratches, and for cats I love to play with them and if they like, pet them!

About: I've been caring for animals of many species my whole life and take their happiness as seriously as any loved one. I offer drop-in visits, dog walks, and short-term house sits for dogs and cats. I'm experienced with medical protocols and some specialized care for senior and special needs animals, including administering medications and more complex routines. I work with well-trained, well-behaved dogs and have extensive experience with all cat personalities, from anxious to senior to special needs. Where I stand out is that I'm a certified Animal Reiki Master and intuitive. I'm deeply attuned to how animals actually feel and what they need. I genuinely enjoy being present with them and creating a calm, trusting space. I'm an avid walker who loves taking dogs out and exploring together, and I'm an expert at cat play behavior. My own cat needs vigorous morning play to stay balanced, so I get it. I’ll follow your protocols exactly and you'll get updates so you know your pet is thriving and cared for. Your pets are truly remarkable little beings and they deserve all the love and respect they can get. Drop-in visits and walks are available Saturday through Tuesday. For overnights and short-term house sits, I maintain limited availability Friday through Monday, taking on one booking per week. I work part time with my own small business, which is why I'm selective about my schedule. This allows me to provide the quality care and attention your pet deserves. When I'm at your home, I follow your pet's daily routine and schedule as closely as possible. I respect your space completely and leave no trace once I've gone. I'm attentive to your pet's emotional and physical state, so I notice if something feels off and I'll communicate with you about it. I provide regular updates so you know exactly how your pet is doing while you're away. I follow your instructions precisely and care for your home and your animals with the same respect I give my own.

We couldn’t have asked for a better dog sitter! Alex took such great care of our dogs while we were out of town—he kept us updated with pictures throughout the week. It gave us real peace of mind knowing they were in such good hands. We also came home to a spotless house, which was such a gift after traveling. Highly recommend Alex!!

Haley was absolutely incredible!! She stayed in our home to care for our two dogs and transient cat while we were on vacation. She was extremely communicative, caring, proactive in her approach, trustworthy, and super easy to talk to. She went above and beyond, especially when our flights were delayed and we needed an extra night of care last minute. We are fairly anxious pet parents, but she calmed our nerves immediately. We highly recommend and love Haley!!

Bri made me feel so comfortable with leaving town knowing how much my kitty liked her at the meet and greet and the time she took to let me get to know her. She took excellent care of my senior kitty who gets very stressed when left alone and was more than happy to spend above and beyond time with her, giving her love and attention and even making sure her bird shows were on/sat with her during tv time which is my cats absolute favorite thing 😸. She had no problem staying the night so my kitty didn’t get stressed being all alone and was totally good with kitty sleeping above her head..:the highest compliment in kitty world. 😻 She took excellent care of the house and checked on plants as well per my request. She had no issue with changing potty pads which is an unusual request for cat sitting to say the least haha. She also kept me supplied with updates and pics to set my mind at ease. Would absolutely recommend her to anyone! 10/10

Emily was the perfect person for my dog Butters when I went on a trip! This was my first time having someone staying at my house and it was great for my senior dog to be in a comfortable environment. She was super friendly and kind. She sent updates on their cuddle sessions, cute pics, took him for a pup cup and you can tell she really loves dogs! Also she left everything exactly how I left and was very communicative. Highly recommend Emily! Would absolutely love to have her watch my dog on my next trip away.
