Marilyn is awesome! Her drop in visits are very helpful for my 9 week old puppy who is still getting used to the crate. She is very thoughtful and cares about my pet’s well being.

We have worked with Amanda for many years, going back to when she was a trainer at PetSmart. She has worked with at least four of our dogs and she is top notch! She is a great trainer and has many good ideas to assist with our problem children! I recommend her highly to anyone needing pet assistance!

About: I have cared for my own animals since my childhood, now that I’m grown I have 1 dog and 4 cats. I’ve been professionally pet sitting for several years. I’m a dog and cat lover and will treat yours like my own! I work from home, so I’ll be available to love on your pets as needed! My schedule is flexible. I am available most times throughout the week and weekend. I have a fenced in yard for my dog with plenty of space to play outback. I have lots of play space indoors for my cats including many toys and cat towers that allow them to people and bird watch!

We can’t say enough good things about Summer! From the start, she was professional, communicative, and genuinely caring with our furry family members. We have two dogs and an elderly cat, all with their unique personalities and needs. Summer quickly built trust with each of them, which was incredible to see. Our dogs absolutely adored Summer – daily walks, playtime, and even the extra snuggles made them so happy. And for our elderly cat, who can be a bit finicky, Summer showed exceptional patience and attentiveness, ensuring they received the care and calm atmosphere they need. What truly stood out was the regular updates, pictures, and little stories that made us feel at ease while we were away. We returned to a clean house and happy pets, which speaks volumes about Summer’s dedication and attention to detail. If you’re looking for a pet sitter who will love your animals as their own and give you peace of mind, Summer is the perfect choice. Thank you for going above and beyond!

About: I’ve been around animals, specifically dogs, my whole life! I am relied on in my family to take them out and groom them. I have five overall, (one with anxiety, a senior, and one deaf), and they’re my best friends. I have a cat who we found outside and have helped her to acclimate to a new life, and a kitten I’m in the middle of training! I know plenty of games to entertain your pets, but I also cherish wind down time. I problem solve and adapt quickly so you never have to worry about your babies under my care! Animals are my greatest passion and I would LOVE to meet yours! I am currently a college student, but when I visit home I take my dogs outside to burn off some energy and play with them, and take them out again later on in the day! I regularly bathe and feed them as well. I play with my cat and clean her litter box, and she lives a life in luxury sleeping in my bed! My kitten is being trained carefully and taught a schedule, so this is an all day, everyday thing! I will give your pets all of the attention they have ever needed and keep them busy! I will crate them if needed and go on walks, bathe, and brush them. They will receive all of my love and care! I can even do quick visits just to let them outside.

Jennifer loves every dog she meets. Jennifer enjoys baking “Aunt Boo’s Biscuits” for her guests. She gives individual attention to every dog as if it were her own. My dog Charlie was especially attached to Jennifer. He was old and had back pain before he passed. Jennifer gave him back rubs to help relieve his pain. Jennifer is dog’s best friend!

Kelsey is awesome with my Westie and mini Goldendoodle! She cares for these 2 as if they were her own. My fur babies love her! I’ve had to contact Kelsey on short notice and she takes care of us! Kelsey is very dependable and trustworthy. She keeps a key to my house for times that I can’t get home! I highly recommend Kelsey to take care of your fur babies as well!

Jenna is an amazing pet sitter. I have had her pet sit my animals about 10 times and every time she does great. She actually trained one of my puppies. When I came home he was potty trained! I recommend her to anyone who needs a pet sitter.

Chloe is the best sitter ever! She gave us piece of mind while doing excellent work. She made her last visit right before we returned home so the boxes and bowls would be tidy. She gave extra attention to our cats. Booking her is the best option out there. Highly recommend

Shania is very passionate about animals. She has her own dog, who she considers a child. She is very caring ,compassionate, and affectionate towards animals. She walks her pup everyday, and is always buying him new toys. She’s very responsible and her pet has always come first. I’ve never seen her not run up to an animal to give it lovings.
