“Jody took great care of my dog, Hank. She was very thorough in getting to know him and very knowledgeable on introducing her dogs to him. I know he had a blast because he came home happy and tired. And the photos she sent of him while he was with her showed how much fun he was having too. If we are ever back in the area I will get her to dog sit him again!”
“Casey did a wonderful job with our 2 pups. She was thorough in her care for them and send us a couple photos and an update every evening which was so welcomed. It was our first time leaving our pups with someone we didn’t know, but Casey helped us be right at ease and we got to enjoy our vacation knowing they were in great care. Her kiddos left us some really sweet notes in their go-bag as well, which was delightful to read when we got home and unpacked.”
“Brenda's home was clean, and she was very conscientious about our initial meetup and making sure that my pup was cared for in a way that I was comfortable with. She also sent lots of pictures during the weekend that we were away.”
“I cannot say enough about Krystal and her family! Truly the best dog sitter I could ever dream up!! She loved our sweet poochie like her own! She sent me daily updates with pictures and details about how he was doing, and what fun activities they were doing with him! She has a gorgeous area in her home dedicated to doggy sitting, and it is just lovely. They took him on walks and puppy stroller rides when the pavement was too hot for his little feet. They worked on his tricks with him, they even bought him a new toy just for the fun of it! I had no doubts that he was being well cared for, and that was so comforting to me while we were traveling. I will 100% use Krystal again, and recommend her to everyone!!”
“She was absolutely incredible with the whole process. She sent me pictures and updates of my dog and took the best care of her. I definitely will be booking again and I recommend her to anyone who needs to take their pet someone for boarding. I couldn’t have asked for a better pet sitter for Willow. I can’t wait to book again!”
“I had surgery so I found Chantel to watch my two dogs for two weeks. Well, what turned into two weeks turned into four weeks total and Chantel was very gracious to keep my two dogs for another two weeks, which was quite unexpected. Chantel did a very good job in meeting their needs and keeping me informed of how they were doing. I would highly recommend Chantel in the future.”
“This wonderful lady was very willing to help us out and she went above and beyond for our dog Emma. After a couple pouty moments emma finally settled in and had a blast playing with the other Dog I will rebook with her if we both have mutual dates. Please allow her to watch your pets”
About: I've had dogs for my whole life and I absolutely love them. I love all dogs too, big or small. I love playing with them and running and walking them. Dog cuddles are definitely the best to me. I am currently a preschool teacher, but I will be done each day around 12:30. My hours are flexible, especially in the summer and during school breaks. I am able to work around all kinds of schedules at this time. I have my own dog and I take her on multiple walks daily and make sure to play with her too and make sure that she gets plenty of daily exercise. I also walk my neighbors two dogs daily Monday-Friday and make sure that they get good exercise and go potty for her in the middle of each day. I have even done check in visits with another one of my neighbors that have cats and I made sure to clean their litter boxes and refresh any empty food bowls or water bowls too while they were out of town.
“Joelle was amazing! She was super communicative the whole time and sent many cute pictures and updates. It was clear my cat was comfortable and well cared for, which means so much to me. I really appreciate how thoughtful and reliable she was. I’ve already booked her again and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her to anyone!”
“Marketa was very easy to work with and took wonderful care of both of my pups. She kept me updated with a few pictures which was a nice touch. I will be using her again when needed. Thanks again.”
“I really felt like Enzo was being taken care of the whole time I was gone. Emily was very kind and flexible with my schedule. I even got some really good professional grade pictures from her of Enzo! All around great experience.”
“Falin and Dani are great animal lovers. You can tell the moment you meet them. Sammy had a short visit today just to get acquainted. When I picked him up he seemed very happy like he wasn’t ready to leave yet.”
About: As a pet parent myself, I treat every pet like family not just a job. I know how important it is to have someone who genuinely cares. “I send consistent updates, pics, and videos so you always know your pet is safe, happy, and in good hands.I take time to learn your pet’s personality, quirks, and routines to give them care that feels like home.Whether it’s cuddles, playtime, or just being calm company, I adapt to your pet’s energy and needs not the other way around. I also help with my mom's pet transport business so Ive been around all breeds and know how to care for them. Pet care is naturally part of my everyday life ,I'm a pet parent myself, so my days already revolve around feeding, walking, playing, and giving lots of love. Adding other pets into my routine just feels like expanding the family In My Home When pets stay in my home, they’re treated like family. I make sure they have a cozy, stress-free space with plenty of playtime, walks, and cuddles. I stick to their usual routine,mealtimes, potty breaks, and sleep schedule to help them feel at ease. I also keep my home clean, pet-friendly, and safe, with lots of toys and comfy spots for relaxing. In Your Home (house sitting/drop-ins): When I’m in your pet’s home, I aim to keep things as close to their normal routine as possible. I follow feeding instructions, walking times, medication needs, and any quirks that make your pet feel secure. I also make sure your home stays clean and respected:mail brought in, lights managed, and your pet loved on every step of the way. I’m big on communication, so you’ll always get daily updates, photos, and any notes on how things are going. Whether your pet is playful or more low-key, I match their vibe and make sure they’re comfortable and cared for.
