“Sandra is genuine. She takes the time to listen and follows through. She knows how often I like to be updated and when to keep it on emergency contact only. I also appreciate She lives within 10 minutes of a 24/7 emergency vet just in case.”
6. Trisha R.
“Trisha has a love of animals that goes above and beyond! I went to Myrtle Beach and had Trisha watch my dog. My dog means the world to me and would not trust my dog with just anyone or at a facility. I knew that in my absence that not only will he be cared for but he would be loved. Trisha knew I was missing him and would send me pictures of my happy guy which made me feel good. Trisha is amazing with all animals but especially with dogs/puppies. I highly recommend her!”

11. Lindsey E.
“Lindsey is the best pet sitter ever! This woman loves, loves, loves animals and they love her! I have a special needs kitty that is blind and can’t be left at home alone for long periods of time. I’d never be able to leave town if it weren’t for Lindsey. She is friendly and dependable. It is so reassuring to know that my sweet boy is in good hands while I’m away.”
12. Caitlin R.
“Knowing Cait for years, she is a fun-loving, caring passionate person! Between animals of her own and times we’ve been out and about you can tell she is an animal lover by the way she interacts with pets on walks, stray cats or even squirrels scrambling by with their nuts. Your pets will be in amazing hands with her. ❤️”

15. Michael M.
About: I started taking care of dogs when I was young and my neighbor asked if I wanted to take care of their dog. Ever since then, I have loved taking care of other peoples dogs and have done so ever since. I have only done sitting for Friends and Family as of starting this, but I am more than willing to take care of any other dog(s), and give them the proper love and attention that they need while you’re away! :) I am free for almost the entire week. I do most of my college and other work online, with the only physical obligations being my class on Mondays and Wednesday (only a 1 hour long class), and any appointments that I may already have (which I will let you know of before hand. I have an open yard with no fence, but your dog(s) will always be on a retractable leash and tended to so they can roam free and to wherever they need! I have 1 little terrier mix of my own who is older, but he tends to keep to himself and not mind the company at all (although he does bark a lot)! They will be fed to whatever your liking is, and will be tended to as needed. They will be in safe and good hands, with a watchful eye over them to make sure they stay safe! I currently do not have classes for the semester and am do not have a job of any sorts besides this one, so I am very flexible. As long as your dog/cat does not bite and can listen to some degree, then I will be perfectly ok with them! They can go on any sort of furniture in my house and will not be confined, unless stated to do so by the owner (you!). I will feed your dog/cat according to your schedule and will contact you ASAP if there is any sort of issue. Another thing to note is that I prefer that your dog is on a harness rather than a collar, especially if they love to walk. I have discovered over the years that dogs can get out of a collar MUCH easier compared to a harness, so this is more for my own sanity. Thanks! They will be in loving hands!
16. Ann G.
“Ann is superb. She is on time. She has attention to detail about my pet and provided feedback as to how the walks went. I will definitely rebook!”
17. Britanny T.
“I'm so thankful!”
18. Arianna T.
About: I’ve always had an animal in my home. When I was younger I had from fish, to snakes, to dogs. Being an animal lover is one of my favorite characteristics of myself! I have a full time job currently but I work 3p-11p. I’m fortunate to have weekends off which makes me available for weekend get always to take care of your fur baby or mid day drop in during the week. Unfortunately I only have a partially fenced in yard but hardwood floors to fit babies who are still in the process of being potty trained especially since I try to avoid being in the crate as much as possible. I potty trained my daughter and a puppy at the same time so patience was a huge virtue I developed.
19. Scott L.
