Gracie was absolutely amazing with our two pups! We were given updates and pictures all throughout the day and never had to worry about a thing when we were out of town. We have used this service a lot and haven’t had anyone that can hold a candle to how great Gracie was! Will definitely be calling her again in the future!

Sarah took such amazing care of our dog, two cats, and home while we were out of town. She provided picture updates throughout the day. I didn’t have to worry at all about my babies while we were gone. Her communication was top notch. I will definitely use Sarah again!

Diane was a fantastic sitter! She was amazing and easy to work with throughout the process. She stayed in my home while I traveled and my deeply anxious rescue dog and my cats never missed me. Diane kept me informed while I was away, followed all my instructions, and my pets were safe and happy in my absence. I look forward to hiring her again. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend her or rebook her. She’s truly a thoughtful and special person who will care for your pets so you can relax while you’re away.

I will DEFINITELY use Josiah as often as possible! He followed all my instructions and my dog absolutely loved him. My beagle suffers from separation anxiety, and it's hard to find someone who not only compassionately understands his needs, but also with whom my dog feels comfortable and secure! When I arrived home, my dog was sleeping at Josiah's side. I think I finally found a perfect match!

Kayla was amazing! She took such good care of our fur babies, giving regular updates and sending lots of pictures. Plus, she followed our instructions to the letter. And best of all, our cats both loved her, too.

Nicholas did an amazing job house sitting for our dog and cat. He was responsive, respectful and made sure he understood our instructions prior to the sit. He sent us photos and an update daily and went above and beyond for the comfort of our pets. They will be so excited to see him again the next time we leave town!

Rebekkah was amazing with Tucker. We had some very serious health issues occur while she was sitting for him, and she handled everything with kindness, grace, and professionalism. Her communication was great. I can’t recommend her highly enough.

About: I grew up with dogs, so caring for them is second nature to me. I am able to do basic grooming as well as bathing! I helped raise my family's current dog, taking her on walks as well as training her. I am not a certified trainer, but I had fun training her and found it relatively easy! I have experience with both large/extra large dogs as well as small dogs, with varying activity levels. I am currently home from college for summer break. I have church on Sunday mornings as well as karate Monday evenings, but other than that I am free to care for your fur babies! I am open and willing to adapt to the needs of your fur babies to the best of my ability. I have experience with fenced in yards and e-collars/invisible fences.

About: I have had dogs in my life for many years now! I adore dogs. My family has own three goldens, one German Shepard, and one black lab! I’ve cared for them my whole life, including feeding, bathing, playing with them, working on training, etc. I work part-time until school starts in the fall. I have tons of time to see and play with your babies! I have my own form of transportation so I’m accessible at all times of the day! I will always make sure to ask questions when I’m not sure on something because I know how nerve racking it can be to leave your baby with someone you don’t know. I will also always double check any instructions to make sure I’m doing things perfectly to ensure nothing goes wrong. I am always up for playing with them and cuddling whenever they allow me to.

About: I have taken care of numerous dogs of varying breeds, ages, and energy levels throughout my life. I’ve only sat one cat before, but we had a great time and I would love to take care of another one! I guarantee to make sure that your pet is well cared for, played with, and given all the attention they require :) I’m going to be working part-time soon, but before I start that I’m available to care for your pet any day of the week from 8am to 10pm, I can do extended and overnight stays as well if needed! I have a fully fenced yard for my senior dog, and I make sure to keep the layout of my space consistent day to day so walking around won’t give him any extra trouble. I can work with whatever space you have to make sure that your pet doesn’t feel cramped or uneasy, and of course we can take walks that are within reasonable distance from the home. I’ll always keep water and doggy bags on me as the health of your pet depends not just on the care they receive, but the cleanliness of their environment.

About: I have the patience to work with most breeds but the larger ones are my favorite. I’ve had or lived with pets my entire life and will care for yours like it’s my own. Walks, feedings, even baths if they’re up for it! I’m no dog specialist, just someone who genuinely enjoys they’re company. If your dog needs any accommodations (extra loving!) I’ll do my best to meet your expectation. I understand trusting a stranger with your pet can be unnerving but I promise to provide the best service I can. Your dog won’t even know you’re gone! But hey no pressure, choose what’s best for you and your pet. Whether that’s me or someone else, if you’re happy I’m happy. But hopefully you choose me! I’m moving back to Michigan this summer and will not start my full-time position until August. So I have a pretty flexible schedule until then and I would love to fill my time loving on some fluffy babies! I will care for your pet in your home and do all that you have instructed. I know it could be a little stressful to leave your dog and they may worry, but I’ll do my best to make sure they feel comfortable and at ease.

Lizzi was terrific. She stayed with my very active young schnauzer. She communicated well, sent cute pictures, and kept me up to date on how everything was going. All was neat as a pin when I returned. It was so nice having Lizzi take good care of my boy!
