Jane was so amazing, caring and meticulous with caring for our 2 dogs (one of which is a senior dog). She sent us detailed updates, photos and videos which giving us peace of mind when we were away on vacation. She left our house cleaner than the way we left it. I am so happy we found a great caretaker for our pups after many failed attempts. Jane was our saving grace and we look forward to using her again! If you would like to hear more about our sit I'm happy to be a referral, she was that good!

Grace was wonderful with our dog and cat. She was quick to respond, punctual, and sent us updates throughout her stay. She even left us a little present at the end which was such a sweet gesture. We will definitely book her in the future and would highly recommend her.

About: I’ve had numerous cats, dogs, birds and a rabbit! I love animals and the unconditional love they give in return. I would love to have the opportunity to take care of your babies while you are gone and give you the piece of mind you are looking for. I’m retired and have plenty of time to play and check on your fur baby! I adore animals and will love yours as much as I love my own! Currently I am offering services in your home only as I have a high energy puppy in mine. If your dog also is high energy and wants/craves stimulation with a like minded pup, I’d be more than happy to see how they get along! My home has a fenced in yard as well as a doggie door, and my dogs go on numerous walks per day.

Beverly was a godsend for me, full stop. My plans for taking care of my dog fell through at the last minute before the holidays and Beverly swooped right in for the rescue. She gave me updates throughout the week during the busiest time of the year and made sure my dog felt right at home without me there. Beverly went above and beyond what I expected of her and the apartment was left better than she found it. I’d recommend her to anyone and everyone in a heartbeat.

About: I am a cat mother of three. Two I adopted from an animal rescue and the third came from a family member who could no longer take care of the fur baby. I look forward to giving endless baby talk and praise to your furry companion❤️ along with their basic needs. In addition, I am empathetic to owners who have animals with special needs and I am willing to make reasonable accommodation(s) when caring for your furry loved one(s). I work full time Monday-Friday. I have open availability on weekends (that includes Friday evenings, Sat, Sun). Limited availability after 5pm, Mon-Fri. Open availability for federal holidays. My cats free roam, fed twice a day (wet and dry), fresh water every day, occasional snack, periodic brush/grooming sessions. Lots of baby talk and praise. I purchase toys and cat nip for playtime and stimulation. I administered prescribed ointment to my cat when he had an eye infection. I am comfortable administering meds to your pet with instructions from pet owner with reasonable accomodations.

We love Anna! From the moment she asked if she could come meet my pup before booking, I knew she was amazing. Gracie, my 1 1/2 year old Maltipoo can be challenging and she was so patient and amazing with her. I felt so at ease going to my sister's wedding knowing that someone so caring, reliable, understanding, professional, and communicative was in my home with my fur baby. What I love most about Anna is her love for animals which shines through as soon as you meet her. She will contact you with any questions, which I love, and sent pictures and updates, also love! If you are thinking about booking with Anna, stop thinking and do it. You won't find another person quite like her! If we ever need a sitter again, she will be the first one we call. 💕🐶🐾

About: Hi I'm Nicole! I’ve been dog-sitting for over 4 years for family, friends, and neighbors, caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I’m responsible, attentive, and genuinely love spending time with animals, whether that means feeding, walking, playing, or just keeping them company! I make sure each pet feels comfortable, safe, and well cared for while their owners are away. I’m a college student, so I’m home during breaks (including holidays) and for about four months in the summer. I also come home frequently on weekends during the school year. In the summer, I’m available any time of the week and have a very flexible schedule, so I’m able to give your dog plenty of attention, playtime, and care throughout the day. I have a large yard where dogs can play and get plenty of exercise, and I always make sure to supervise them while they’re outside. My home is a spacious two-story house where dogs are free to roam and feel comfortable. I treat every dog like my own and many have even slept in my bed! I also have experience adjusting to each dog’s needs, whether that means crating them, sticking to a routine, or giving them extra attention and care.

About: Pet care experience Hi there! While I may not have a dog of my own, I've had the joy of caring for a dear French bulldog annually for almost two weeks each year. I adore playing with my sister's dogs and live in a cozy home filled with the laughter of my three dog-loving kids. I'm always available to walk, cuddle, and shower your furry friend with love and attention. Your fur baby will be in excellent hands with me! I'll treat them with the same love, care, and attention that I've given to countless other dogs. Their happiness and well-being are my top priorities. Let me be your dog's caregiver, and they'll receive all the cuddles, playtime, and care they need. Looking forward to meeting you and your four-legged family member! 🐶💕 Welcome! Our family consists of myself, my husband, and our three wonderful kids. Though I never had a dog, my love for animals is evident through my adorable rabbit named Kruger. Nestled in a house with a spacious yard on a tranquil street, I offer a peaceful environment for your furry friend. I work from home on Fridays and have weekends off. I'm back home by 3 PM every day, ensuring your pet is surrounded by care and attention. Living on a serene and quiet street with minimal traffic, I provide an ideal haven for your beloved dog. My spacious yard offers ample room for them to play, explore, and stretch their legs. With a peaceful environment and plenty of outdoor space, your pup will receive the utmost care, attention, and room to roam freely in a secure and comforting setting. I can easily crate your dog if needed (and provided)

I truly can’t put into words how grateful we are for Joanna and the care she provided for D. D is a rescue with past trauma, so he is extremely fearful and skittish at first. He’s not an easy dog. Joanna showed INCREDIBLE patience, especially on the first day, giving D the time and space he needed to warm up. Her calm and gentle nature immediately put him at ease. She took him on daily walks and trips to the dog park and consistently sent photos and thoughtful updates, which gave me so much peace of mind. There is nothing more comforting than knowing your dog is happy, comfortable, and truly cared for, and Joanna exceeded all expectations. She also took wonderful care of my apartment — I returned to a clean and tidy home. I would absolutely trust Joanna again and cannot recommend her highly enough.
