“Denise was honestly incredible! It was pretty short notice and some people wouldn’t watch Caesar because he’s a pitbull, she rearranged her schedule to watch him. She gave me multiple updates and pictures throughout. When I came to pick him up, she gave me a painting he made (with the help of peanut butter and plastic wrap I assume)! 1000% recommend”

13. Zoe Z.
About: My husband and I have a lot of experience caring for cats, dogs, and birds. I've been house sitting /animal sitting for around 7 years on the side. I absolutely love animals, and I've had experience caring for a large variety of them. I've watched 4 large dogs at a time, all of whom needed special medication and attention. I care for every animal like they're my own, and just absolutely love being around dogs. I have a spacious home and I am very attentive. I live in a safe neighborhood, and I am by my phone 24/7 so can be in contact with you at any time. I work remotely and sometimes have to go in to the office. My husband is almost always home, and we always make sure someone is at home to be with the animals. Care is always personalized to the dogs needs. We go for regular walks, follow any dietary restrictions, and always check with the pet-parent if there's anything else needed.
14. Susan K.
“Will definitely use Susan again! She took very care of my 3 dogs, 2 labradors and a chihuahua, while we went on vacation. She is very attentive and caring. Out dogs adore her!”
15. Kyla G.
About: I’ve been with animals since a baby. My parents always had a bunch of animals and dogs were a big part of my life. Once I turned 18 I’ve added a bunch to my own little family. I have two dogs who travel with us and enjoy the outdoors so much. I also have many reptiles, small creatures, and two cats. I completely love the affection and bond created with animals. My fiancé works full time while I stay at home. I’m currently doing at home projects and with being at home am able to have lots of time to spend with my animals and help others. I have two very friendly dogs who love playing with other dogs. Along with that I have two cats and many reptiles. All animals are like family and I wouldn’t want anything happening to them.
16. Rachel S.
“Rachel took excellent care of our puppy Addie when I called her for day care. She came home calm and happy. It was clear that she had a great time while in Rachel’s care. Thanks Rachel!”
17. Bill B.
“My little dog, Sassy had an unexpected surgery and recovery period. I had been at wits end about what to do with her as I could not take the time from work. Thankfully, I found Bill able to accomodate Sassy on short notice for the critical time following her surgery. Bill gave me absolute peace of mind that Sassy was well cared for and given attention when I could not be there for her. Sassy could tell "Bill days" and would wait impatiently by the car so she wouldn't miss her chance to go see her friend. I really loved that Bill gave me updates on a daily basis and sent me pictures of my little one resting comfortably. I will for sure be asking, no begging, Bill to take care of my dogs when I find myself needing a helping hand. Thank you Bill for opening your home to my Sassy and caring for her so well.”
18. Natasha P.
“Natasha is amazing! Our puppy Scout loves going there. He comes home happy and very tired! Natasha is always sending updates throughout the day & is always working with him. I would definitely recommend bringing your pups here!”
19. Angelina G.
“Angelina is your go to girl for dog sitting/walking. I've known her for 20+ years and has always been a dog lover. She's trustworthy and will take excellent care of your furry friend!”
20. Joshua S.
“Joshua is the most determined person I’ve ever met. He is intelligent but most of all he uses that intelligent well to be very clear. However, he does have his flaws. He has a confidence, although well-founded, it is hard to overlook. However, when you need him to be there he will be there.”
