“Julie was amazing with Noa. We have a senior dog with kidney disease and diabetes, which means specific diet and insulin shots. It was the first time we left her alone since her diagnosis and we wanted a person with experience that we could trust, and Julie was just the person we needed. 10/10 we recommend.”


“I had to fish out twigs or cigarette butts too when I notice that he’s chewing on something when we’re out walking. Thanks for another great week, Sophia”


“Luis is great. Our chocolate lab, Harvey, loves him. He walks him two times a week while we are away at work. He is always on time and takes amazing photos of Harvey that he sends us after every visit. We would definitely recommend him as we know our dog is in great hands!”


“We love having Lisa come to visit our kitties when we’re out of town. Our kitties are super skittish normally but they love when Lisa comes to feed them. Thank you Lisa!!”


“Marissa is a fantastic pet sitter. My cats adore her and she gives them so much attention on her visits. I am always so excited to see her photo updates. My cats are not overly high-need, but she does a great job making sure their food is full, their water is fresh, and their litter boxed is cleaned. Marissa is very easy to communicate with and someone I absolutely trust with my pets. I have so much peace of mind knowing she will be there to take care of my best buds when I am out of town.”


“Pamela was outstanding. She truly went above and beyond to care for my fur baby. Even extended her visits a little bit just to give extra love and attention to my girl. It was such a relief knowing my baby girl was in the best hands during my time away. I would recommend her care to absolutely anyone. Your fur baby will be safe and extra loved in her care. Pamela is also a wonderful communicator. After every visit, she made sure to send me pictures along with a detailed message about her visit, how my dog was doing, how the walks went, etc. There was a point during my time away that I needed to extend the visits a few extra days, and Pamela did so, happily. It seemed she was even excited to see my fur baby again. Which I love. If you need a sitter who will take extra good care of your babies, and show them love, Pamela is the choice for you! She’s trustworthy, kind, and overall loving. 10/10. I plan to book her again soon.”


“Such a great experience!! This was a last minute thing and I am so happy I went with Bailey she was wonderful!! Egan absolutely loved her and she was so kind and patient with him and I. When I needed her to come back randomly after my boy got into the trash she was so accommodating and helped me out again last minute. I am new to the area and I’m happy that I found someone I trust to watch Egan while I am away at work🤗”


“Vienna did an outstanding service with our little old girl, Honey. She was very patient with Honey and took good care of her. Honey is a 14 year old little lady and can be temperamental when she doesn’t want to go outside to do her business so you have to be patient with her as she tends to have minor aches and pains from her arthritis and Vienna kept me informed of daily drop in visits on how Honey did. Honey is also very picky and difficult when it comes to her feedings but as soon as I informed Vienna what to do with Honey it all went well and Honey ate her meals great with Vienna by her side. I will definitely use Ms. Vienna again. Thank you so much, Vienna for taking good care of our old little lady. I also forgot that I needed to book her for another day due to flight delays and Vienna was quick to respond and accept the additional extended booking. Which was a big help to us.”


“Jennifer went above and beyond!!!!. Treated my pup like up a lot of attention, care and extra time. Loved all the commutation and daily pictures. Will definitely book with her again.”


“Okmi was very attentive and took care of both our cats very well. They were very healthy and happy when we got back. Very happy with the experience and will definitely ask for her help again when needed!”


About: I have had extensive experience with dogs while working at a doggy daycare for about 4 years. I managed safe playgroups for dogs of various ages and sizes. Additionally, I did basic obedience training for puppies and young adults. I regularly do dog-sitting overnight for some families when they travel over the summer, and I treat their fur-baby as if they were my own. I myself have a dog that I love and I know how hard it can be to balance working, taking care of your fur baby, and also living your life. I would love to have the opportunity to treat your fur baby as my own! I work early enough in the mornings that most of my afternoons/evenings are free. I typically spend them walking my own dogs or do training with them. It would be super easy to add another pet into mix and take care of them. As someone that regularly dog-sits and stays in my clients homes’, I treat their homes and possessions with the same care and respect that I would expect of someone staying in my own home. If I make a mess, I clean it. I leave everything just as they have left it. In my home, I make sure that potential hazards are put away and everything is dog-safe. One of my pups is 1.5 so we keep our home puppy-friendly at all times.

About: I have always had cats and dogs in my life. They were pets or they were the pets of family or friends. I also have experience with rabbit, birds and hamsters. I am currently only in school part time. I am unemployed, so I have all the time necessary to care for multiple animals and/or pets. Our fully fenced front and backyard gives lots of room for dogs to run. Inside dogs are only kennelled when necessary and allowed on the furniture with us when invited.

“Jenny was fantastic! You can tell she genuinely loves caring for animals. Her comments and photos brought a smile to my face knowing my pup was well tended to! Thank you for your glowing energy, Jenny!”


“Zanae did an amazing job watching our fur babies for the weekend! She is very communicative and flexible with schedule changes. I look forward to having her watch our pets in the future.”


About: I have had cats and dogs my whole life. I am looking to gain more experience taking care of animals! I also have experience pet sitting for my neighbors and friends! I am working part time right now. My schedule is flexible but can be a little unpredictable. Most of the time, I work Tuesday, Saturdays and pick up another shift during the week. I will always be off of work by 5pm. I am also a student on summer break. I leave for school on August 26th! I'm super flexible! I'm able to watch your dogs when they go outside or take them on walks. I would love to snuggle and play with your animals whenever!

About: A working IT professional who loves dogs. I’ve been blessed to have lived with 5 wonderful dogs and 5 cats in my life. Each beautifully unique. I prioritize maintaining your pets routine so they are happier. It also makes for a smoother return to normal for you. My largest dog was 100lbs and my smallest under 20lbs. I’m comfortable with administering medications and have had a dog with diabetes. I run, so if you want someone to run with your pet, I am happy to do that too. I’m currently working from home during the week. This gives me flexibility to visit and walk pets during the week. I’m fully available during weekends. I respect your privacy and security. I really like to walk dogs and if they like to play fetch, there is a great location that’s private where we can do that nearby. I’m willing to go to dog parks with your pet if you want it, but I prefer not to. There are too many risks and unknowns and your pets safety is top of mind for me. If your pet likes to sit (on, or near, or further away) I’m happy to just spend time with them. My older dogs found this more suitable to their needs.

About: I've grown up with dogs and cats all my life. I was always there to walk them, feed them, help clean them up, and make sure they got lots of attention. Understanding the needs of others, both human and animal, is something I'm well known for. I'll be ready to get your pet excited for a walk and help them calm when they need space. I'm sure your pet will have a wonderful time, whatever their needs may be. I am currently on summer break from my college so I will have plenty of free time to care for your beloved animals. I just need to know a day in advance so I can make sure my car is ready and that I don't have any conflicting appointments. I have lots of experience of walking dogs and keeping them on their leash/harness. I don't mind feeding them and giving them oral medicine. I can clean up after them or bathe them as needed. As long as I have some form of written instructions I will make sure all of their needs are met. However I do not have experience with crate training. Also Im more than happy to walk your pets in any weather. If it's sunny I'll be sure to bring lots of water, if it starts to rain I'll try my best to keep them warm and dry.
