“Ally was a great dog sitter. She took great care of Bernard and was very communicative. She send constant updates and photos of Bernard which made it easier for us to leave him behind knowing that he was well taken care of.”
“Callie did amazing with my dog. She provided consistent updates and was flexible when our plans changed. When I came home my dog didn't even seem to care that I was gone 😅 I assume because she was cared for so well.”
“Gabrielle did a great job taking care of my old lab, Duke and our house while we were out of town. She contacted me regularly throughout the entire process of hiring her and while she was staying with my fur-baby. I highly recommend her and will call her back for future services if needed.”
“One of our dogs ending up being sick and leaving several messes. Nicole cleaned up all of the mess and kept us updated as to his issues and his behavior(not eating, moving slower than normal etc).”

“Darriell went above and beyond when watching our dog and cat. The dog got skittish about walking while we were on vacation and Darriell was patient, communicative, and compassionate. She sent lots of pictures and I felt confident our animals were in good hands. Would definitely book again!”
“Always happy to have Alex come pet sit for us! Our doggies get excited when she comes to visit. Alex sends pictures of our pets, which we appreciate. She clearly and consistently communicates. Our doggies have had some medical things going on, but we knew that they were in great hand with her!”
About: I started working at an emergency and board vet clinic when I was 14. I took care of sick and injured animals of all kinds, while multitasking and caring for the other pets in the boarding facility connected to the hospital. I’m skilled in senior care, and have no problem administering medication and following a specialized routine. I’m constantly training my dog, Yuki, new tricks. I’ve also given tips and tricks to help train other pet parent’s pets. I’m open most of the time, and will have no problem spending time and caring for your animals. I’m an active person who loves going on walks with my dog, giving her puzzles, and cuddling. I follow care instructions to a T, making sure the pets are taken care of and feel safe with me. I make sure to let the animals come to me if they want play time or pets.
“Rebecca was fantastic! She housesat for 11 days and took great care of our anxious Australian Shepherd, Bailey. This was our first time leaving Bailey with someone outside of family, but she warmed up to Rebecca right away. Rebecca checked on her regularly, provided daily (picture) updates, and left our home spotless. We’re so grateful for her help and will definitely reach out to her again in the future!”
“Payton was great!! Would 100% use her again!”
About: I’ve owned both cats and dogs for my entire life, and have had the pleasure of learning and understanding all of the small, but important, traits/tendencies/tricks that only comes from life long animal care! I’m available at all times due to my remote work schedule! I’m accessible and able to travel on all business days with flexibility. Time for walks, drop-ins, or scheduled stays! Fully fenced in yard, I have a 3 y/o black lab and 16 y/o cat who are both friendly as can be but have two levels to the house that can be separated if that were to be an issue! Our animals are family and yours would be treated the same.
About: I’ve had pets for as long as I can remember! While I attended college I assisted a couple in caring for their two large dogs, two macaws, and three cats. Now that I’m home from college, I want to continue helping people with their pets! I am currently interviewing for a full-time job, so to avoid any complications, I am looking to just schedule walks on weekends and evenings! Please reach out if that fits with your schedule! I’m very happy to care for your pets in your home, and I have done so before with my family member’s pets. Your pets being in a space that they are comfortable and familiar with while still getting the care they need is extremely important!
“Ife was amazing! She took great care of our pups while we were away and she would send us updates throughout the day! Our pups loved her! Definitely recommend and we will be rebooking in the future!”
About: Hey there! I’m Hannah - animal lover, and your pet’s next best friend. I’ve been around dogs and cats my whole life and truly believe life is better with fur and paws! I’ve raised puppies, cared for senior pets, and even looked after dogs who are blind or deaf — every animal is unique, and I love them all. Right now, I have two cats who keep me on my toes (and my lap), and I’ve had dogs of all sizes and personalities over the years. Whether your pet loves long walks, cozy naps, or belly rubs on repeat, I’m here to make sure they feel happy, loved, and totally spoiled while you’re away! Can’t wait to meet your fur baby! I am a recent college graduate & I own my own business so I have a very flexible schedule! I am available for most holidays also, if not they will be blocked out! Creating a safe and fun environment while pet sitting is very important to me. I love being able to provide play time for cats or dogs while I am watching them. As well as cuddle time if they’re one that likes to curl up in your lap.
“Great communication. Loved seeing the pictures dawn sent us. She loves our babies like her own. Will definitely use her again! Thanks, Dawn.”
About: I am now taking walking and sitting appointments for my area of Gibraltar, Gross Ile, or Woodhaven beginning May 1st. For boarding, my house sits on almost an acre of land on a quiet street on Horse Island. It is a dog's paradise. My backyard is fenced-in, but the dogs are never left alone. With years of experience caring for animals, I understand the nuances of pet needs and behaviors. I have even helped clients with behavior problems such as barking and jumping. Whether engaging in playful activities, enjoying peaceful walks, or simply providing a comforting presence, I ensure each pet feels at home. Let your furry friend enjoy a vacation as relaxing as yours! I am retired, a full-time homemaker, and a gardener. During your workday or vacation, I can walk your dog at your home or leave your loved one with me. I live on a nice, quiet street on the water in Gibraltar. I am fit for walking or running with your dog near your home or mine.
About: i have 5 animals myself. 2 cats and 3 dogs. i’ve grown up with animals all around me. i love hanging out and playing with animals and would love to connect with new ones!! i have to take care of 4 animals every day. it plays a large role in my everyday life with work and vacation and now college starting, but i will make it work with them no matter what i have a privacy fence around the whole yard with a gate connecting and a glass door to help keep animals from running off. the fence is also very high so dogs can’t jump.
