Since I have six dogs and two cats, I really did not think that I was going to be able to find another sitter to add to my work travel rotation (I’ve had good luck with two in the past but schedules were tough) that was going to be able to meet the needs of a sassy dog, a deaf dog, a grumpy dog, an old dog, a nervous dog, and a reserved dog. But Kerrie and her considerate nature and expertise made me and my whole cast of characters feel at ease. Such a wonderful house guest and I came home to a happy, healthy, relaxed bunch. Highly recommend!

Alexa was so good with our babies! We have 5 dogs, half of them crazy and needy and she handled all of them like a champ! One of them is very nervous with new people, and she was so patient in letting him get used to her and he quickly got over it lol. She really cared about our babies and they all loved her. Will definitely be asking her back!

About: I have taken care of animals, my whole life. I am an animal enthusiast who will do whatever it takes to provide a service of care you would want for your animals. I am a freshman in college with no current job. Therefore, your pets will be my main focus and I will have plenty of time to care for them!! I plan on providing your pets with the same amount of care, if not better than I would my own. When I house sit, I will make sure your pets are well taken care of with food and water and all the love in the world!

Ashley was great. She took great care of our dogs when one of them came down with a very messy health issue! She kept our place spotless and even drove us to the airport!! Would definitely love to have her come house sit again.

I cannot say enough how happy I was with Blakey! It was our first time leaving them with someone in our home and my 2 dogs didn’t even act like I had been gone when I came back! I’m pretty sure they were happy being spoiled by Blakey! Will definitely book her in the future!

Susanna and her husband were more than accommodating for my three dogs. They were attentive, sent me numerous updates and asked questions about their routine. It’s safe to say that my dogs love them! I will be rebooking in the future!!

About: I have a true love of every furry friend out there. I love large breeds as much as small, so I’m comfortable with any breed. I also love to walk and hike, so if your dog is high energy, I can match that! I currently work part time at an animal rescue with a flexible schedule, so I have lots of free time to spend with your pet. I have experience with dogs, cats, and many animals. If dog sitting, I am happy to come twice per day to feed, walk and love your pet. I understand how hard it is to leave them behind. I will happily text you photos and updates, as often as you would like!

Johnnie was great. This was my first time having Johnnie keep Rocky, but I’ll definitely use again. She took great care of him and kept me posted on how things were going through messages and photos.

About: We love all animals I've taken care of Dobermans but also have taken care of shih tzus. I love all animals they will have love here. I'm a stay at home mom so I'm home just about 24/7. I like going on walks in the neighborhood so having a buddy would be rewarding. I have a porch and fenced in yard where they can play and I can take them on long walks. We have a wide living room to play in to .

Katelyn was amazing with our 3 pups! She kept us updated the whole time and sent lots of pictures. She even checked on our two cats with no extra charge! Our animals loved her and seemed to be very comfortable with her while we were away. We will definitely have her stay with our pets in the future.

About: I consider myself a person who has a very friendly way with pets. I take care of their needs and I am constantly attentive to their walks and any instructions given by the owner. If your pet needs any special care, just let me know; with the proper instructions, I can provide excellent care. I currently have a job, but I can choose which days to work and which days to dedicate to your pet, so there's no problem there. Rest assured, I'll be able to pay attention to your pet and play with them, and I dedicate time every day to physical activity. I would love to take your pet for a walk in a nearby park. Depending on the service required, I can also come to your home to provide care. We could have a chat and discuss your pet's needs.

About: I would love to be considered to watch your fur baby!! I love them like my own, and make sure to take care of them like my own :) I currently do photography for income, so I’m pretty much available whenever I do like to keep weekends open as much as possible, but during the day and maybe a few times during the week evenings, I am available!! I make sure to keep an eye out on your dog 24/7 to make sure they don’t get into something they’re not supposed to and to make sure that they are happy and active or taking a nap!

Adrianna did an amazing job for us. We had a long stay of 9 days and she hung with our two dogs the whole time. She let them warm up to her in their own time and we came home to happy pups and a clean home. I would use her services again and recommend her to anyone!
