After knowing Tara for over 25 years, I can easily say, when it comes to passion, empathy, and care with loved ones, especially animals, she has a heart of gold with the best intentions. I would recommend her 10/10 times to anyone seeking a care giver or medical advice when it comes to animal care. Her accolades in the veterinary field are stellar when it comes to knowledge whether procedural or basic care with having a degree in veterinary nursing, and being animal CPR certified.

Jules really takes the time to get to know your pet and make sure they are comfortable during her visit! We have a very excited, tiny pup who is so happy to be around a human after a few hours while we are at work that he practically combusts (lol), and she really takes the time to give him love, belly rubs and help him to feel comfortable while he waits for mom & dad to get home!

Brianna is the best. Even our very shy cat came out to see her on day one this time (and this was only the second time we’ve had the pleasure of booking Brianna), proving Brianna’s clear awesomeness. She is also great with all the details, allowing us total peace of mind to enjoy our vacation. Thank you so, so much, Brianna!!!

It's stressful when we have to leave our Misty for a long while. She's a rescue and I always want her to know she is now in her forever home and we will always come back. Now we have Melissa, who is very caring and dependable. For Misty, Melissa is part of her world now, a person in her life that is familiar and secure for her. We are so grateful that we found Melissa!

Emily was fantastic! She was wonderfully communicative throughout the entire process from when we first contacted her for a meet and greet, all the way til the last visit ended. She not only read all our lengthy instructions and brutally honest descriptions of all 3 of our pups, but retained all the info on them, as well. Our pups loved her sweet demeanor, and the attention she gave each of them. She was super punctual and trustworthy. Will definitely be using her again while she's available and not at school!

Tyler is a wonderful pet caregiver. He has been a caretaker to my dog since she was a puppy-which is no small feat when the puppy in question is a teething German Shepherd Dog. I can personally attest to the grace with which Tyler navigates complex behaviors in dogs, including reactivity and anxiety. While caring for my dog, Tyler not only kept her safe and happy, but provided continuity on the obedience training my family had implemented. This was invaluable, as I feared other care options would undo thousands of dollars in training. When a friend's dog was sick, Tyler stepped in to transport a medically complex animal to a higher level of care. As a military member I travel frequently and often with little notice. Tyler provides peace of mind that my pet is well cared for, enabling me to focus on the task at hand.

Peyton was a great pet sitter for our two dogs. While out of town for a few days, she was able to pop in last minute to check on them! We felt very comfortable having her care for them! Would highly recommend, and would love to use her services again in the future!

Steve was able to fit me in short notice when my regular walker was unavailable, and he was fantastic. He took great care of my dog, Sam. He was very prompt with and left me feeling at ease while I was out for the evening. I'll definitely be hiring him again. Highly recommended.

Lyndsie is a PET LOVER! She cared for her aging dog who needed medication 2x daily every single day. She never missed a beat. She cares for my dog like her own, taking her to the vet when anything concerning happened. Very attentive. She taught me things about my dog I never realized. She’ll say hi to any pet she passes by (asking for permission first) and it’s just the sweetest. I would trust her any day of the week with my pets.

About: Being a dog owner myself (I have a goldendoodle and red heeler), I understand the need and importance of reliable and trustworthy help. I have a remote job which gives me incredible flexibility during my day to drop in and give your dog some playtime and cuddles or a walk. Ive always owned dogs throughout my life, and have experience watching dogs of all sizes and breeds. You can feel confident that your pup will be in good hands while you’re at work or out on the town! I work remotely which gives me great flexibility and I often have liberty over my meetings schedule. We can discuss a time that would be best for you and make something work. I will make sure to give you updates of your dogs walk/drop in appointment. You will be notified of their behavior, route and anything else that is notable. I will make sure to discuss your expectations to make sure your pup is getting optimal care.

Sarah has taken care of my dog so many times. From just a quick visit and bathroom break (with tons of cuddles) to long walks and overnight stays. She is absolutely wonderful with dogs and truly has a heart of pure gold. I’ve never met anyone who cares for animals the way she does! I highly recommend Sarah for anyone looking to have their pet loved and taken care of the way you love and care for them yourselves. She is one-of-a-kind and will take care of your babies like they’re her own!
