Melanie and Anthony were great with our dogs, even with one of them in heat. They kept them well fed and exercised. We were very pleased with the experience

Great 👍! I had her for three days, came on time and treated my two big fur babies with love and affection. I hand retriever and a husky, so you know you got the hair all over. She enjoyed being with them and also sent me pictures for the updates. She was a great help and will definitely book for later. Thank you Sabrina 😊

We went away for 10 days to Portugal, which was the longest we ever have been away from our dogs. Rose made us feel much better with her excellent care. She sent countless updates, pictures, and videos. I can tell my dogs were happy and relaxed. She followed our instructions exactly and left our home exactly how she found it. We will use her again!

I’ve seen my friend Bernadette work absolute magic with animals. She’s a total natural when it comes to caring for pets of all kinds. Whether it’s taking dogs on walks, playing with them, giving them belly rubs, or just curling up for cuddle time, she does it all with genuine love and patience. She has a great sense of each animal’s personality and always adjusts her approach to make them feel comfortable and happy. Treat time is always fun and structured with her, and she never misses when it comes to routines or special care instructions. The same goes for cats and all indoor pets she’s gentle, attentive, and always makes sure they feel safe and cared for. Bernadette has a calm energy that animals seem to really respond to, and it’s clear how much she enjoys spending time with them. Any pet in her care is not only safe, but also truly loved.

10 STARS! Fantastic! She helped us out in a pinch when we needed someone to stay at our home and care for our dogs. Willianny accommodated on short notice and really helped us out. She was responsive and sent dog pics frequently. Responsible. Trustworthy. Knowledgeable. Kind. One of the best dog sitters we have used and will 100% consult her again to watch our dogs. Highly recommend Willianny.

Sasha loves dogs of all breeds and sizes. She is always responsible, respectful and trustworthy when walking dogs. While walking my dog, she was on time, friendly and able to accommodate to any requests. Sasha is always happy to help out a neighbor or friend who needs their dog(s) walked. No matter the time of day, she will be there with a smile on her face.

15 years of experience

About: I have been an animal person for the 21 years of my life. I have had experience with aggressive animals stray animals scared animals so I’m very good at the escalating and understanding What to do in emergencies. I have worked with both young and old animals. I have administered medicine to elderly dogs and cats, and I worked on behavioral training with young puppies. So every morning I take out (walk) my dogs and I feed my very bossy demanding cat. I do a lot of exercises with my cat since she does not like to go outside And I fit this in all at 7 - 8:45 AM in the morning. I do work as a teachers assistant during the day. In the afternoons and night times is when I’m free to walk dogs and over night boarding I have a fenced yard with three very social dogs one German shepherd one lab and a pitbull mixed dog . And if your dog or cat doesn’t like dogs, I also do have a cat that is very social and nice as well. I do provide many toys as well as treats .

Heather is the best pet sitter we have ever had! We have a lot of pets with a lot of personalities and needs, she is very mindful and attentive to each of them individually. We have left our 5 cats and big dog with her for both short overnighters and long 2+ week trips and we always come home to happy animals who are still comfortably within their routines. Our dog Bean loves Heather and our finicky cats warmed up to her very quickly. We always felt safe and comfortable leaving our babies in her care!

Pam is the best! She cared for my high energy dog Rizzo while my wife and I were in the hospital for the birth of our son. Pam gave Rizzo plenty of love and attention, was always on time, communicated proactively with me, and was just super nice/respectful. She put me at ease and allowed me to put Rizzo out of my mind knowing she was well cared for. 10/10 would recommend and book again.

Lindsay has helped me care for my dogs over the last ten years. She always helps me if my family needs a weekend getaway or even a vacation. We always let her know ahead of time and she helps accommodate our pets needs. She has been there for us through two litters of puppies, some unfortunate pet illnesses and obviously for all the fun and playful moments. She is very good about follow ups and making sure our pets get exactly what they need. Right now we have a pet who needs eye medication and she comes by daily to make sure he is comfortable and gets what he needs. I have nothing but praise for the way in which she has handled our pets who absolutely adore her. She created a special bond with our two dogs and she is very loving to all animals.

Amber did an excellent job of sitting for Yogi on a weekend where the weather was not always ideal outside. She kept in contact, reached out if she had questions and sent us adorable pics of our pup. Highly recommend and can’t wait for Amber to puppy sit again!
