Sarah did a wonderful job with our five year old Boston Terrier. It was the first time we’ve left him with someone and were nervous how he’d react. Sarah did an outstanding job keeping with his schedule and handling his anxiety (and ours). Before staying she visited twice to get everyone comfortable and learn about our dogs’ specific needs and behaviors. During her stay she sent a lot of updates and photos and even indulged us with some FaceTime calls to say hello. By the end of day 1 they were fast friends. She also left the house spotless. I’m so pleased we found Sarah and would call her again to watch out furbaby.

Claire did a wonderful job house/dog sitting our husky Zoey while we were out of town. I felt completely comfortable after meeting Claire for our meet and greet, and Zoey loved her too. Claire was communicative throughout the time we were away, sharing updates and pictures, and left the house tidy. Would re-book in the future without hesitation!

I was very nervous leaving my pet behind on vacation but Lucy was always in good hands with Alli. She went above and beyond. We can't thank her enough. Lucy now has a new friend. I would rate her 100 on a scale from 1 to 10.

About: I have had animals since I was a child and grew up on a farm. Animals love me, and I have a special knack for knowing cats needs. I am currently retired, substitute teaching so there is plenty of time to take care of your animal. I am a huge cat lover and I enjoy their presence. I have a fenced in yard but will not allow your cat outside while you are away. Lots of cat toys and a big house for your cat to roam. I have 1 cat myself.

About: I currently have 3 dogs! I have a Female Goldendoodle, Male Yorkie. My female Pitbull just recently passed away at 12 years old. She was the biggest sweetheart. I also have a Male cat! I recognize that they all have different needs and personalities, such as with health, and I prioritize those needs each and every day. My animals are my family. Nothing is better than making sure your loved one is content and taken care of. I can assure you that your animals will have all needs met and on top of that, they’ll feel an overflow of love as long as they are in my care! I'm currently a senior in college! I do work a part-time job while in school, which is 9-2 on Monday, Tuesday, and Fridays, so I'm available to prioritize walks, check ins, or other care needs from about 2:30-4:45 on those days. On Wednesdays and Thursdays, I work either 9-2 or 2-7, so my availability varies those days, but I do have that set schedule a month in advance. If I'm scheduled for Saturdays, my shift is 11-5 and if I'm scheduled for Sundays it's 11-4, but again I do get my schedule ahead of time, so I'm able to give notice of my exact availability each month for those dates! I’m very flexible when needed. I keep notes in my phone, just as I do with babysitting children, to keep detailed information regarding my clients preferences for their animal in their home. Once you get to know your clients, this information just becomes what you know, but it’s still important to have the information safe and stored, so that I’m always able to abide by my clients routine and rules for their animals.

About: My style of taking care of pets is taking care of them and making sure they are feeling loved so it’s less stressful on them while their owners are away. I absolutely love my 4 dogs. We love going swimming with my son and sometimes just snuggling on the couch. However let’s be honest who doesn’t like some old fashion fetch. Plus we enjoy doggy adventures aka “doggy field trips”. Pets are no different than children to me. I enjoy training, playing, enrichment games and puppy size adventure those are my favorite. Making sure anything that could cause harm is out of reach. Paying close attention to the directions given by my clients (which doors need to be shut and what toys they need supervision to play with). If rough house play is acceptable. Are they allowed on furniture or in certain rooms.

I like to believe I do go the extra mile for families and pets to make them happy. I know what it is like to be in the need of a pet sitter that you can trust and I aspire to be that pet sitter for people so they do not need to worry. I have a big heart for animals
