I’ve had Kenny for a week. She’s amazing . I couldn’t ask for a better drop in sitter to be honest. With the commitment, level of care PLUS the time spent I can’t imagine having hired anyone else. Moving forward she will be my go to. I intend to keep her for weeks. In the hospital having a baby and complications since I can’t come home and she made accommodations to meet me; tend to my home and my cat. Very professional. Personal with the cat. Brought his confidence way up. On time, communication is perfect and documentation for visits is very reassuring for me and my daughter. Couldn’t ask for a better sitter. Thank you Kenna!!

About: I have been pet-sitting since I was a little kid, and grew up with a mom as a vet, so a love of animals and concern for their well-being is deep in my bones. I was a volunteer at an animal shelter for three years, fostered cats and dogs for four years, and currently have two cats of my own. I love caring for cats, dogs, rodents, fish, and exotics of all ages. :) I work full time, so I can drop in early in the morning or evenings. Weekends are typically open and more flexible. I have a car and can come to you. I am happy to care for your fur friend in your home. I like to meet them ahead to build trust and will go all-in on playtime. Let m know if you need plants watered too!

Rachel is absolutely the best dog sitter we've ever worked with. Her timing was prompt, her communication was fantastic, and she went over and above on multiple occasions, including gracefully working with our oldest dog who had been scared by fireworks, making sure all of our pups' needs were met. We can't thank her enough!

About: I am an outgoing and affectionate caretaker who loves to work with dogs and improve their training. I have volunteered at the humane society, worked at an established dog boarding facility, and am comfortable with all dog breeds. I have lots of free time and plenty of energy to keep up with your outgoing dogs! I am patient with animals and give them time to feel comfortable with me and adjust to new environments at their own pace. If your dog is a couch potato who just wants to lounge around, I am capable of lazing around and giving them plenty of scratches and rub downs. I would want your fur baby to be as cozy and happy with me as possible! I am employed as a server, but in my spare time I enjoy dog sitting and walking people’s dogs, as well as my own. I perform routine cleanings in my home using pet safe products and disinfect in between boardings. My dog, Taki is up to date on vaccinations and treated with flea, tick, and heart worm preventative. I am extremely responsible and trustworthy when I am entering/leaving or staying for a duration of time in a client’s home. I attempt to leave your house cleaner than I found it, and to ensure your pets are happy and very well taken care of while you are away.

About: I have grown up loving and caring for dogs of my own as well as others. I have always been the person people always call when they have some kind of animal emergency. I absolutely love animals and know a lot about taking care of them and many different types. They will get lots of attention and quality care for me. I will spoil your baby as much as you will let me! I can work on training and other fun activities to keep your dog’s mind distracted. I love cats as well and have lots of experience with them. I have lots of experience with special needs and elderly pets. I can administer any medication necessary. Thank you and have a good day! ? I have a flexible schedule so I can meet most needs. I keep in contact with you asap if there are any changes that are needed I live in a charming small house in the corner of Ferndale and a very quiet and peaceful neighborhood. I have a fully fenced in backyard that is about 97% privacy fence. There’s one little corner where my dog can talk to the dog in back through a chain-link fence.

About: In a fast paced environment it is easy to overlook our place in the world as animals. Being in close contact with other beings can create connectedness and a sense of place in nature. Simple tasks like dog walking may seem beneath most people, but I see it as an act graciousness and a chance to connect to other beings. As a walker or sitter my goal is to consciously occupy space with your pet. This, for me, means accommodating and changing as situations seem fit. I would also like to stay conscious of any owners wishes and feelings regarding the service I may provide and remember that it is only a service if it works to make their and their pets experience more comfortable.

About: Grew up with pets but can’t have my own right now. I’m looking to help others and get to have be around pets part time! I am self employed with flexible hours every day of the week. I go on daily walks so having a dog by my side would make them even better! I’m kind and gentle and pets gravitate towards me. I’m great at problem solving and always love to send photo updates of your fur babies.

Tara is a great cat sitter! She was very patient with and loving toward my standoffish cat, very prepared for everything required for catsitting, and willing to go above and beyond when I needed it while I was away. I would definitely recommend her as a catsitter and am looking forward to working with her again in the future!

Suzanne did a wonderful job with our fur babies. Our girl cat can be cranky or a sweetheart and Suzanne knew how to bring the sweetheart out of her. She sent delightful photos of Peanut rubbing all up and down her leg in greeting and running around the house excitedly playing or having zoomies. We knew our cat was in good hands with her from the very beginning - just a vibe - but she proved to be responsible, attentive, and definitely went the extra mile to make sure we knew Peanut was being loved, food and maintenance was being taken care of, and that our other pets were also safe.

About: My husband and I work from home and have very flexible schedules that allow us to be present with our pets during the day. There are no kids in the home during the day during the week. Typical day include walks around the neighborhood or nearby park, lounging or playing in the backyard or the dog park. Plenty of toys for chewers and plenty of space in our fenced yard to roam and play. I currently work from home as a technology sales rep. When I am not working, I’m entertaining both my toddler and pets. I often have a decent amount of free time and dog sitting has been a great outlet for my dog to socialize and get some fun in! For repeat pets, I have noticed a big difference after a few days of adjusting. Its important for pets to feel safe in whatever space they are in.

Shannon took great care of our cat Zora. She maintained our routine for medicine, food, water, litter, and some play. We would love to work with her again and would recommend her highly.

Amanda was referred to me by a neighbor who spoke very highly of her. I was so worried about leaving my cats and felt so much relief after being given the referral, instead of using a neighbor to help me. She followed my directions and I never worried the entire time I was gone as I knew everything was being taken care of. My cats are very fearful of strangers in the house and I want them to get to know her so I can feel comfortable when I leave on trips and they no longer are afraid. I will continue to use her going forward. She sent pictures and it looked like they would make an appearance when she was here so hopefully, that will get better each time.

If I could give Rhea more than 5 stars, I would! She was truly a dog whisperer for our anxious little guy, and we felt so reassured that our pets were cared for while we were away. She went above and beyond for us, and we would highly recommend her!

"Carissa was PHENOMENA with my cats! Even my most skittish cat warmed up to her quickly, which is rare!! She clearly has a natural way with animals and made sure my pets felt safe and loved while I was away. I came home to calm, happy, and well-cared cats. I will definitely be booking with Carissa again and highly recommend her
