“thank you again, Brandon as per usual you put my mind out use when I'm away from my animals. Thank you for taking on Freya when you had such a busy schedule. I really appreciate you.”
“Therese is fantastic! We found ourselves in a pickle and asked her to watch our cat with very short notice. Not only did she accept, she was willing to go over that same day to check on our cat. She sent regular video updates and made sure everything was taken care of while we were out. We will definitely be requesting her help again in the future, thank you Therese!”
“Sibel was absolutely amazing with our shy cat! She sent plenty of pictures and videos showing how loving she was to him. She went over and beyond with her care for him. He is a timid cat, but warmed up so quickly to her. She is truly the sitter EVERY cat deserves. Thank you so much, Sibel!”
“Andrew and Sophia have been fantastic pet sitter for our dog, Pinion. This was his first time being cared for by someone outside the family, and he’s been adjusting well thanks to their kind and patient approach. They are very communicative and provide prompt, thoughtful updates after each visit—including daily photos, which give us peace of mind and a glimpse into how he’s doing. Their observations have even helped us fine-tune Pinion’s routine to stay consistent with his usual schedule. We’re so grateful for the care and attention they’ve shown. Highly recommend!”
“Kendall communicates well, sent pictures every day, and was happy and willing to help with a couple small pet tasks outside of what was in the original booking. My cat and myself are happy and satisfied with her service.”
“Autumn is the absolute best! She’s watched my kitty multiple times and I know that w Autumn my kitty is always well taken care of and happy. Autumn is super responsive and reliable and sends me pics and updates every time she swings by and I’d recommend her to anyone :)”
“Annette was amazing with our shy kitty! She took great care of him and I knew he was in good hands the whole time we were away! She was highly responsive and communicative throughout the whole process. Highly recommend!”
About: I bring years of experience caring for dogs and cats of all temperaments, from playful puppies to senior pets with special medical needs. My background includes training dogs and providing attentive care tailored to each pet's individual requirements. Whether it's administering medications or ensuring a comforting environment, I prioritize the well-being and happiness of every animal in my care. I'm currently working remotely which allows me to easily integrate pet care into my daily routine. With a flexible schedule, I have ample time throughout the day to walk dogs, engage in playtime, and provide attentive care! Working remotely allows me to provide flexible, attentive care for pets both in my home and my clients' homes. At my residence, I have a spacious, fully fenced yard where dogs can play and relax safely. Whether it's regular walks, playtime, or administering medications, I tailor my care to meet each pet's unique needs.
About: I have been taking care of pets since before I could remember. I believe that pets are what make the world go round, and always strive to make them as happy as can be! I have a small, calm dog and cat here in Arizona, and two large, crazy dogs back in Maine. I definitely understand how both ends of the spectrum can be! All my pets have made it from early puppy, to late senior so I understand the vital importance and factors of taking care of a youthful/elderly pet. I am only working part-time at the moment so taking care of your pets on the weekend is not a problem for me! I also work early mornings so I am free in the afternoons/evenings during the week for all services except overnight stay! MY HOUSE: I have a small, calm/friendly dog that would love to keep your furry friend company. He can be locked away in a separate area of the house if needed! I also have a small, calm/friendly cat but she will be locked away for all visitations/overnights because she gets scared easily. I have a beautiful fenced in backyard with a pool and fake grass. All pet waste gets cleaned up so it’s always hygienic. I will take your dog for a long walk 2 times per day. I will follow your desired feeding/play schedule and administer any medicine if needed. YOUR HOUSE: I will do all the same as listed above! If you have no fenced backyard, I will take your dog on multiple walks a day to get their energy out. I will also follow any crate training instructions if desired.
“I can’t recommend Maddie highly enough! She stepped in at the last minute over the Christmas holiday when I had a family emergency, and she was absolutely fantastic. Maddie took amazing care of my two cats, Isabella and Coco. Coco is notoriously shy and has always hidden from previous sitters, but Maddie worked her magic and managed to coax her out—something no one else has been able to do! She made sure both cats ate well, stayed happy, and received plenty of attention. Maddie also kept me updated with daily videos and photos, which gave me such peace of mind during a stressful time. Maddie is a true professional and clearly loves animals. I feel so lucky to have found her and will definitely be booking her again!”
“I so appreciated Jinifer's drop in visits to look in on and give Kitty Kaley some food and some love. I could not have been more pleased, and very much appreciated the pictures. I recomme d Jinifer highly! work is high quality and reliable!! ++++++++”
“Sydney is amazing!!!! She took such great care of our 3 cats and even made an extra trip to check on them when a couple of them did not want to come out of hiding. ? We will definitely continue to hire her!!”
“Tannah is the sweetest! She watched our cat for us while we were out for a week. We enjoyed getting the daily updates and photos, and our kitty seems to have really taken to Tannah :) Totally recommend her!”
About: I grew up with Lhasa Apso’s and now I have two Persian cats. I taught my dogs and my cats to walk on a leash, although the cats would rather stay home. I’m also good at brushing and keeping them knot free. I love all animals and will take care of yours just like they are my own. I am extremely careful and and also know animal CPR. Dogs and cats are my babies. I consider them my four legged kids. I have never met a dog or cat that I can’t stop and talk too. They are little people to me. You won’t get better care. Whatever your pet needs, I will be there for them. I just love animals so very very much.
About: I have owned, fostered and rescued many different pups over the last 20 years. Everything from spicy chihuahuas to stoic Bermes Mountain Dogs! There isn't a breed that I have not been able to care for. I have cared for and trained 5 puppies in my experience. I am not just a "dog person" I am an ANIMAL LOVER! My love for animals goes beyond just pups. I have cared for turtles, lizards, horses and birds. I even cared for a pot-belly pig once! What ever the species of your animal family member is, I can get the job done and become their friend! I currently own my own business and work from home. I can make visits during the work day or as late as 7pm Tuesday-Friday. I am available to sit for your pets Tuesday-Sunday typically, but I can be available any time upon request. I take care of pets just as I would for your child. After all, they are your child in many ways! I can provide walks and time to play with them. I can feed, water and take them to go potty. No need is too big.
“Gwyn did an outstanding job caring for our 2 🐈, 2 🐢 and bearded dragon 🐉 while we are away. Everything went exactly as planned and communication was great while we were away.”
