Katharine was amazing with Lily! I was out of town for 8 days and never once worried about whether her needs were being met. Katharine sent photos, updates and detailed notes on every walk. I would recommend Katharine a thousand times over.

I was so nervous to use a perfect stranger to watch my fur babies but Rachael and Logan came for a meet and greet. They instantly made us feel so comfortable. The 1st drop by visit went great and I loved all the pictures of their time together. It was awesome and it was super clear that our babies were having a great time. They are awesome

Simply put, Anthony was great. This is my first time using a pet sitter and Anthony took the time to answer all of my questions which really put my mind at ease. My Doberman warmed up to Anthony rather quickly which was evident in the terrifuc reports and photos that Anthony provided after each visit. Thank you, Anthony!

Giselle is are now go to sitter! She is extremely good at following my crazy helicopter dog mom instructions😂 she is very professional and did everything we needed of her perfect and went above our expectations!! Our German shepherd is a little shy and also a ball of energy once warmed up and he loves her and we are so thankful for that because he can have a hard to warming up to people. I would 100% recommend her to anyone!

About: I’ve have grown up in a house with both cats and dogs, very comfortable with large breeds of dogs. I take the time to get to know each animal individually. I work full time and have availability usually everyday after 5pm. I am also available anytime on the weekends as I have those off work. I will follow any house rules and will do what I can to make your pets comfortable with me being in their homes to help take care of them in any way that they need.

About: I have been taking care of the pets of friends and family for years, ranging from dog-walking to week-long pet sitting. Experience with a wide range of breeds and ages. I am a substitute teacher with a very flexible schedule, so I can take care of animals pretty much any time during days when I am not subbing. For sitting at other’s’ home, I try and keep the pet’s schedule as close to normal as possible! I prefer sitting in other’s’ homes just to keep things simple for the furry babies.

About: I've taken care of dogs of all kinds, and have the most experience with large breed dogs and cats. I've been fostering with my mom since I was 12, and I love spending time with fuzzy friends! I am currently unemployed and have as much time to care for pets. This may change, though, so I will always stay updated as soon as possible! I take care of animals inside of a clients home, and care for them as their owners would throughout the day, keeping the pets' routine as regular as possible.

About: My previous dog was a therapy dog who loved being around people. He was the best, most well-trained dog and we miss him every day. I currently have been working part-time and would LOVE to have a furry friend to check on in the early mornings or after 5pm ish. I would love the love! I love to walk and will make sure I clean up and not mess up any home or area I am in. I am a responsible, ethical, woman who (with my husband) is not home a lot. We do not think this would be fair to a dog.
