“We're grateful we found Stephen! He came to our hotel to pet sit, putting our dog immediately at ease. By the time we got back, they were best buds. Highly, 100% recommend.”
“Tim is responsible and compassionate and was absolutely terrific with our standard poodle. We’ve used him several times and had absolutely full confidence that his three day stay with our beloved canine would go well. And it certainly did. House was left in immaculate order and our Louie was sad to see Tim go. We can definitely recommend Tim to others.”
About: I've had guinea pigs all my life, and I have taken care of my friends and families dogs and cats. Taking care of animals is a huge passion of mine, and I take it very seriously I have a lot of free time on my hands and would be available anytime of the week. If something does come up on my schedule I will let you know. I would prefer to take care of your animals in your own home and would be able to stay over or check in on them as much as you want.
“J. Paul was such a pleasure to work with. He seemed to understand the special needs of an anxious dog and did everything we asked of him with pearl. We came home to a dog that didn’t seem to be bothered in the least that we had left. That’s exactly what we wanted. I would use him again and recommend him to anyone who is concerned about dogs with anxiousness or other needs that come with a rescue pet.”
“Elizabeth was wonderful with our two dogs. She was very communicative, showed up on time, and left our home very tidy! Our younger pup required medication while she was sitting and Elizabeth ensured he received all his dosages. The pups got plenty of love and attention and were excited to see her again!”
“Mary was spectacular while sitting for our dog, Holly, overnight in our home while we were away. It was a short trip but she kept us updated constantly with photos and messages detailing how much she ate, her activity level, mood, and bathroom activity. Mary was punctual, so polite and pleasant to speak with, and extremely professional. You can tell she takes her job caring for animals very seriously. I would 100% recommend Mary and definitely plan to book with her again the next time we’re away.”
About: I love animals of all kinds and look forward to getting to know your unique pet! My first animal friends were cats, but my circle quickly grew to include snakes, then dogs, and more recently other invertebrates like spiders and scorpions! While I don't have personal experience caring for birds, I am an avid bird watcher and would love to learn how to take care of an indoor feathered friend. I have experience with young pets, old pets, and pets with chronic illness. I have a very flexible schedule and am available on both weekdays and weekends. Late morning, afternoon, and evenings preferred. I can accommodate single or multi-night pet/house-sitting. I understand all animals have unique needs and personalities and I look forward to learning how best to care for your pet in your home!!
About: I have had dogs since I can remember. I have trained puppies to caring for senior dogs. I have also had the same with cats. I have experience with caring for a dog after major surgery. Giving medicine and tending to wounds. We go for walks and take my daughter to the bus. She loves car rides and when working from home she sleeps under my chair. She is a good ball and loves to fetch. Love's water but also gets into everything. I have a fenced in yard but she has gotten bored and jumped the fence so we go for hikes and when we are in the yard I have a lead that she stay on. For her safety as she will chase the deer.
