Brittany was absolutely awesome. I am so glad to have found her. She was very professional, and had great communication throughout the days I needed her. She was attentive, kind, and patient with my pup. I will definitely be using her again!

About: I’ve had animals all my life, and would love the opportunity to pamper yours! My husband and I have a six month old great Dane/English mastiff puppy in our home, so puppy training is very fresh in our minds! That being said, if doing any in-home pet sitting, our girl adores all other kinds of dogs from Yorkie sized, all the way to her size! We will love and care for your fur babies just as much as we love ours! We are very much open to overseeing any animal’s care as we have experience in most pet departments, and if we do not, we’ll be sure to let you know! My husband and I both work full time as I’m a nurse & he works in the trades. But, that being said, between the two of us, our schedules are relatively flexible! And if we are not available, we will be open and honest as such! We have a fenced in back yard, a cockatiel named Ellie, and as stated, we have our 6 mo. old pup, Willow, at home who is the best girl with other dogs! We have a large crate available if needed and can tend to whatever needs your pup requires!

About: I’ve been a cat lover and caretaker since I was 10 years old, and I’ve done lots of cat sitting over the years. I’m great with feeding routines, litter, playtime, and giving pets the love they deserve. I also have experience dog walking and dog sitting! I recently graduated college and currently work part-time, so I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of time to give pets lots of attention and care. I’m available for house sitting during weekdays and can easily fit feeding, playtime, walks, and check-ins into my daily routine. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in their own environment. I closely follow the owner’s instructions for feeding, cleaning, medications (if needed), and daily routines. I make sure pets have fresh water, a clean space, and plenty of attention and playtime, while also respecting their space if they’re shy or anxious. I keep the home tidy, secure all doors/windows, and provide regular updates so owners feel confident their pet is happy and safe.

About: I know how important it is to leave your animals in capable, loving hands that you can trust. I will treat your animals as if they were my own and make sure they receive the care I would want for my own animals. I have 2 cats, Cat and Dash. They are the loves of my life. I also have lots of animals around me at all my friends and families’ homes. I am available to watch pets after 4pm every evening. If need be I could make it to your place before work as well. I have all day on the weekends to love on your animals. I would care for your animals in your own home. I would love to bring them into my home to give them more time but my cats do not take kindly to new animals. I would treat your home with the utmost respect and care and make sure it was left in the same condition it was found in.

About: I’ve been sitting for and walking my friends and family’s dogs since high school! I currently live with and help care for my roommates dog as well, which has been such a joy. As a college student I find that I have blocks of free time throughout my week that I would love to spend dog waking! Additionally, this January I am extremely available for house sitting. Growing up with two cats, Luke and Leia, I know how scary it can be to leave your pets with a stranger. I will always keep you updated on how our walk went, if they’re eating, and how your baby is doing emotionally with me!

Julie took our Sadie out for a potty break and spent time playing with her when we were gone for the day. She sent some pictures, it eased our minds to see that Sadie was being taken care of. We really appreciated it. I would recommend Julie.

About: I have had dogs in my life for as long as I can remember. I took care of our dog for at least 5 years up until he passed away. I have been learning to train dogs as well. I currently work full time, Monday through Friday, and I have extra time and love to give to dogs that need a place to stay. I have a partially fenced in yard that is on the process of being fixed/finished. I can easily separate dogs if needed. I will provide walks as long as weather permits.

About: Hi! I’m Robert. I’ve had animals all my life (dogs, cats, fish, lizards, hermit crabs, raised praying mantids and butterflies). I trap and spay/neuter feral cats (TNR), feed birds, planted a pollinator garden in my yard…love nature and appreciate the relationship between humans and animals. My small dog Tyson is 11 or 12 years old and has some special needs (anxiety, hip-problems, blind in one eye, and I am his 3rd owner), so I know patience and compassion when it comes to senior dogs. Two of my cats I’ve had since they were kittens, and the third cat was abandoned by a neighbor and chose me as her new human when they left her. Happy to accommodate your companion’s special needs, and will be honest with you if there is something I don’t feel confident about. I also use two water fountain bowls, so your friend will have access to clean, moving water. I am a bar tender and have been doing that work since 2006, 12 years at my current bar. I work part time there and have a good amount of free-time which I can use to take care of of your dog. I have a large fenced in yard (176 ft of 6ft tall wooden fence) with plenty of shade, water bowls, central air and heating. Pets are free to lounge anywhere in my house, but I do prefer dogs to be crated if I am away for their own safety, and peace of mind for me :) Please let me know if you have any rules you have for your pets at home, feeding schedule, potty-break schedule, etc.

What can we say but Alicia is great. She does a great job with our blind dog Gonzo who adores her. She's even learned how to administer insulin now that he's been diagnosed with diabetes. Thank you for caring so well for our pups.
