2. Monica T.
“Monica is a caring and responsible young adult who loves animals. I would not hesitate to have her watch mine. She has pet sit for my 2 cats and standard poodle pup and they love her to bits. I have had no concerns and always feel completely at ease when I am away and she is caring for my fur babies.”
3. Mark K.
“Mark was amazing with our two dogs. Our dogs went on several long walks, enjoyed playing in the back yard with their Mark’s dog and loved all the lap time and belly rubs that Mark gave them. Mark was great with sending pictures and videos of our puppies while we were gone, too. We’ll definitely pick Mark again and we’d highly recommend Mark to you.”
4. Hannah T.
“Our animals love Hannah, and we do too! She shows up on time and communicates with us if there are any changes or updates. When we are out of town she always sends pictures. Our two dogs have lots of energy so she's very good about throwing their ball for them and getting their energy out. We also have two cats and she's good about giving them attention too! She's reliable and we would recommend her to anyone who wants peace of mind.”
5. Lauren B.
“Lauren is an excellent choice for your home/furry baby if you have to be away. She sent me updates several times a day! Thank you again Lauren!”
6. Lisa S.
“Lisa S. has been caring for and helping animals and pets for as long as I can remember. She was always the one who helped any injured baby birds or squirrels she encountered outside. She is the best cat mom I know. She also fosters kittens, giving them the love and attention they need until they can be adopted. She has always stepped up to take care of our dogs when needed over the years. Our current dog just loves her and is so excited when she comes over. I believe Lisa S. will take great care of any animal she is tasked with handling.”

About: I have a love for animals like no other. I’ve rescued kittens and dogs mostly, and have watched over family/friends pets for over 6 years. I’m great with animals and even better at taking care of them! I am a stay at home mom, so my schedule is completely flexible. I care for our daughter as well as our cat, Phoenix and our dog, Kaladin. I have a big fenced in yard with lots of room to run around and play. They’re allowed on the furniture unless that doesn’t work for you. I have a sweet yellow lab, who’s so excited to make some friends!

17. Allyson D.
“Leaving a well deserved 5-Star rating for Allyson. She just finished a week of dog and housesitting for our two year old Labradoodle, Ollie. Ollie is a Rescue who we had a mere 4 weeks when we asked Allyson to step in for us. From the first meeting, Allyson presented as knowledgeable and caring, traits she later confirmed, and then some! As a recent rescue, Ollie has some special needs and quirks, which Allyson readily adapted to, ensuring we came home to a happy, healthy and well cared for Pet! Allyson will be our first choice when we need pet care in the future.”
