“She was very sweet always sending pictures of our fur babies. She kept them active and loved so they wouldn't worry about where we were. We recommend her highly and will be our go to in the future!!!”


“Thank You so much Cindy for staying with Abby while we were gone away on vacation. Thank You for taking such great care of our little one!! Abby enjoyed her time with you!!”


“Mara did a wonderful job house sitting and caring for our dog and cat while we were away for a weekend. She stayed in touch and sent a few pictures to let us know how they were doing and when she'd be heading out on the final day. Highly recommend and look forward to having her house sit and care for our pets again!”


“Danielle did a great job with my active pup and administered her meds no problem! She loves her and all the goodies she gave her after her stay!”


“Amanda was a godsend when our house sitter cancelled last minute. We met her first then her with her dog, Sedona, and I knew right away this would work out really well. You see my dog, Millie, doesn’t warm up to people easily and doesn’t always play nice with other dogs but Millie instantly liked both of them. Amanda stayed at our house along with Sedona, so Millie was spoiled having her two new friends stay with her. They went on many walks and Amanda sent me lots of pictures while we were gone. I will definitely use Amanda again!”


About: I do a good amount of dog sitting a year for my family, friends, and colleagues. They rely on me to walk, feed, take out, play, administer medication if needed, and snuggle their loved companion while they are away. Most people love puppies and don't get me wrong puppies are great. But my heart belongs to middle aged and senior dogs. If you chose your dog to stay with me they would need to be potty trained. I am very organized and detail oriented. I am calm in an emergency and adapt to best fit the care your loved one needs. I also ensure to maintain consistent communication with my furry guest’s parents with updates and pictures. For reassurance I would want to verify proper information like; emergency numbers, preferred emergency vet, typical feeding and feeding routine, microchip identification, and places they like to go. I would need the fur parent to provide additional information on; Does your dog have any food aggressions? Is your dog crate trained or do they prefer to roam? I recently graduated with a degree as an Occupational Therapy Assistant, but enjoy being around animals. I am a big fan of the outdoors (usually above 40 degrees). I am very crafty, and love projects from painting, to making doggie bandanas! I even get the pets to join in on the painting process. Currently I am job searching. I am home most days and run errands when needed. Because I will be home, that means I can be one on one with your pet. Giving them all of the attention, cuddles and snuggles, and treats they deserve. I will also have a lot of flexibility, so I can go to clients' residences to let out, feed, play, walk your companion if you decide it's best not to change their environment while you are away. My home offers a safe and stable environment. It can be customized to ensure the best possible environment for your dog. I live alone on the 3rd floor of a condo building. It has access to both the elevator and stairs. A very calm and quiet space and no worries for unwanted dog interactions. There is plenty of space to utilize for dogs that are 30 lb or less to play and run around and if owens would like to bring their dog’s crate. In the area there is a great walking path. In my home your dog can sleep wherever it chooses! Whether that be on my bed, or in their crate. I want to make sure they are as comfortable as possible. When caring for a pet in my home I make it crucial to keep my home clean, decluttered and have all cleaning products off the floor and stored out of your pets reach.

“Laura is the best, hands down! She showed our cats and our home so much care and love, we arrived home to a spotless space and our cats were happy as ever (I swear they sang Laura's praises). Her updates were frequent and she took some of our new favorite pics of our kitties. Can't thank her enough for her patience and attention to our pets.”


“Our second booking with Abigail and we are glad we booked again. She’s trustworthy and really takes care of our dog Howard like family. She sends pics and updates us every night. Will be using her again soon!”


“Allison was so friendly and accommodating to work with. She was able to pet sit for Winnie overnight for the whole weekend! We got home, and the house was in pristine condition, and Winnie seemed pretty happy! Allison was very responsive, sending pictures and communications about Winnie often which is exactly what I needed throughout the weekend!”


“Travis did a great job with our two dogs and cat! He was very attentive and caring to our animals, which we greatly appreciated. He sent us pictures and kept in touch with us daily too, which we asked for and loved. He was also very responsible at our home and left it in the same condition in which he found it. Highly recommend and will hire him again.”


“Ava did an amazing job staying at our place and watching our three dogs while we were on vacation. One of our dogs had a variety of medicine that she needed to take, and Ava made sure she took everything, even when our Bella wasn't feeling the best and wanting to cooperate. She was great about sending pictures, and our house was spotless when we came back. I would book her again in a heartbeat!”


“Mariah is fantastic with our pets! She keeps us updated with frequent photos and messages, giving us peace of mind while we’re away. Mariah goes above and beyond, often taking our dog on longer walks which he loves. Her extensive experience with dogs is a huge plus. We highly recommend her services!”


“Gracie was fantastic! I don't like leaving my three dogs, and they don't like being left. Even though I was on the other side of the country, Gracie gave me peace of mind with her frequent communications, pictures, and updates. She took exquisite care of my house and left it so pristine, I couldn't tell that someone had lived there over the past week. I highly recommend Gracie for excellent pet care.”


“Cassidy was great! We have three animals, and she tools great care of them all. Minimally, Cassidy is a cat whisperer. Our cat hates everyone outside of our nuclear family, but she somehow coaxed him into cuddle sessions. But more so she made sure the dogs were walked and loved on. We couldn’t recommend her more!”


About: I have a dog in my house and I have dog sit and walked dogs for family, friends, and neighbors for a couple of years. I am a high school senior who loves all animals. I spend lots of time with my own dog and I would love to be able to pet sit anytime! I love all pets and am ready to handle any dog. I play football and wrestle so I believe I am equipped to deal with even the biggest dogs.


“I can’t say enough good things about working with Phillip! He was kind, professional, and easy to trust with our two hyper and reactive doggos. Above all, it was such a relief to know that our fur babies were being cared for by someone who loved dogs as much as we do!!! We simply relaxed and enjoy our vacation! Thank you, Phillip!”


“Lydia did a wonderful job taking care of my 2 doggos and my cats tonight. When I came back all pets were happy and doggos clearly had had a lot of fun! Thank you so much Lydia and hope to benefit again from your help in the future! Cheers, Melanie”


“Liz was absolutely the best I could hope for when I went on vacation. She was a wonderful communicator and sent many heartwarming photos of my furry family which helped me relax and enjoy my time away. I highly recommend her services and will definitely be requesting her help again in the future.”


“Rhandee did a great job with our pups and was very responsive. She took the time to come meet our dogs prior to our trip, which was super appreciated. We would definitely book her again!”


About: I am a certified professional dog trainer looking to add dog sitting and dog walking in my area. I have been a trainer for several years and have owned dogs (and cats) for over a decade. I currently have three senior dogs myself. Working with dogs is my passion. I pride myself on being patient, energetic, and positive when working with clients and their furry friends! As a certified trainer, I have experience working with dogs of all ages, sizes, and abilities. Talk to me about adding training along with walking or boarding. I am a pro at teaching loose-leash walking, socializing puppies, calming down rowdy adolescent pups, installing basic household manners, and of course basic obedience. I love providing support to my dog training and walking clients and will be sure to send plenty of updates and pictures when dog sitting. I look forward to hearing from you! I worked for years as a certified, professional dog trainer and gained ample knowledge and experience along the way. Not only do I work with dogs professionally, but I enjoy caring for my 3 pooches. I walk my dogs daily (weather permitting) and provide plenty of fun training opportunities for both my dogs and my dog sitting clients. I find that challenging a dog's brain through playful and interactive training helps bond both dog and human and can help release a dog's pent-up energy - especially on cold and rainy days when nobody wants to be outside. My dogs' lives are fully integrated into mine; they are true family members in every sense of the word! Since I have three dogs of my own, I can only offer dog sitting in the clients' home. I like to discuss/meet with clients to go over any specifics or special needs they or their dogs may have. If a dog needs to be exercised a certain amount of time or with certain toys, I will happily oblige. Some clients need their dogs walked (sometimes to a specific location) in order to potty which is no problem for me. I will honor your diet requests for your pet and will send you updates and photos throughout my stay. Also, I can administer basic medications or topical treatments if necessary. If you decide to do any training with me, I use positive reinforcement and never employ any aversives. I will monitor your dog for signs of stress and stop the training if your pup seems overwhelmed or anxious. I like to go slow and never force anything on an unsure dog - respect and safety are key!
