“She was wonderful! She picked up after my pups and herself when she stayed at my house, took trash out and washed dog mats which she totally didn’t have to do. I will absolutely use her again.”
2. Heidi R.
“Heidi is a wonderful pet sitter. She always communicates quickly and efficiently and is very considerate. I highly recommend her for any pet services she offers”
3. Juel D.
“Of course first booking with a stranger online to take care of your fur baby can be skeptical. But I can assure given Juel’s career background your pet is sure to be in good hands their entire stay- whether it’s short or long. She makes every pet feel at ease and treats them as her own. Juel is very reliable & skilled- if your pet has meds or special instructions she will get it done! She keeps you updated through texts and/or pictures of your furry friend. Always available on short notice too. I have confidence my dogs will be in great care when booking with Juel!”

Looking forward to taking care of your fur babies as if they were mine I recently lost my pets and the apartment I live in doesn't allow pets so I look forward to loving your fur babies as if they were my own I'm pretty flexible at dealing with animals I used to have a Australian shepherd and a Shih Tzu Chihuahua mix and two cats so I'm used to taking care of a lot of babies
5. Julie & Robert P.
“Julie has cared for animals for friends and families for years. She is a very loyal, kind hearted woman who loves everyone's animals as her own. She has cats and dogs of her own and they are all spoiled rotten. There is not anyone I would trust my animals with more than her. She is a rare find.”
6. Gabriel C.
“If or when you have a situation when you need to be away from your beloved pets, or if you just need a helping hand with their care, I highly recommend Gabriel Condon. I always use Gabriel for my precious dog, cat, and bird. He meets you and your pets, gets to know the pets' needs and personalities, and immediately interacts with each one. I leave feeling relieved and confident that my pets are being well-taken care of with Gabriel. and you will, too.”
7. Sara C.
“Sara is great to work with! She is completely trustworthy and you and your pet's safety and wellbeing are the first things on her priority list. I would never hesitate to ask her to take care of my fur baby. She is patient and has such a huge heart for all dogs! If Sara is taking care of your dogs, there will be nothing to worry about!”
8. Marlene K.
“Marlene is the kindest person. She takes great care and responsibility for all animals – especially your pet. I feel comfortable leaving my dog with her anytime. I know Marlene would treat her as if she’s her own. I would recommend Marlene be a pet sitter or dog walker for everyone! 10 out of 10 recommend. Rating 5 out of 5 stars. You’ll have peace of mind with Marlene.”
9. Brianna B.
“Brianna was wonderful! Kept great communication and very friendly!”
10. Jayme S.
“Jayme is the most responsible, reliable person I know. She is honest and trustworthy. She is an amazing, dedicated pet parent and would give just as much love and devotion to caring for your pets. I would trust her with the care of my pets any day.”
11. McKenzie B.
About: A safe environment for your furry friends when you're away. I will ensure that your dogs receive the attention, care, and exercise they need. From playtime to walks, cuddles to feeding, I will keep your pups happy and healthy. A loving pet owner of a nine year old St. Bernard. Can administer medicine if needed. I will spend mornings and evenings with your pet(s)! I do work full time; if your home is a reasonable distance from where I work, I can drop by for lunch time potty breaks or walks. Your pet will go no more than 8-hours without me being there. As someone who travels often, I know what it feels like to worry about your pet while gone. I will abide by any house rules (even if that means they can’t sleep in the bed with me), and send lots of pictures and updates to give you a sound mind while away from your pups.
12. Diana M.
“Diana always has taken care of our dogs through the year like they were her own. I never worry when she has our dog. He gets walks, eats in timely manner and has his normal schedule for the most part as if we were there.”
13. Abby E.
“Loved Abby and so did the doggos! ? Great communication and kept us informed with lots of pictures! ???”
