“McKenna is amazing! We have a dog and a cat, and both quickly took to McKenna while we were gone for the week. She was kind and thoughtful with them both; she even got our picky dog to eat his food every day! Grateful we found her and would highly recommend her to friends/family. Thanks again, McKenna!”
“As in her previous visit, this time too Heather was spectacular: Responsive, communicative, kind, and very caring and loving of our two kittens. We highly recommend her!”
“Excellent communication and very thorough during first meeting - even remembered to ask about medications (good thing since I neglected to mention it). Happy cat & guinea pig upon our return. Will definitely book again!”

About: I've cared for dogs and cats of all sizes and temperaments, including those with medical issues, for as long as I can remember. Friends and family often rely on me for pet care, including staying overnight with the animals for days at a time. I work part-time from home. My job goes where I go and my hours are very flexible, so I can work most days of the week (not on Tuesdays) and on weekends. While I can't care for your pets in my own home, I am calm and patient, and I'm happy to take as much time as is needed for your pet to be comfortable with me in their environment.
About: I have had dogs growing up all my life. I am currently s bio (pre - vet) major with experience from internships in animal care. But its not just about the skills I’ve gathered, I have always genuinely cared about the animals around me! Whether they are pets, wild animals, etc. I’m currently working part time, so I have plenty of time to fit pet care into my schedule!! Other than Mondays and Wednesdays, my schedule is very flexible!! I have two friendly dogs. They are both elders so they need rest and cuddles more than anything. When they were younger and more active, we would play fetch and take walks around our neighborhood!

“Eleanor was great! Our kitties loved her right away and we had total peace of mind while we were on vacation. Would absolutely recommend her and will definitely book with her again next time we are away.”
“Keri was fantastic, and I am looking forward to rebooking with her. Highly professional, great communication, and lots of pet love. Also, she went above and beyond to help me out last minute.”
About: I’ve lived with animals for as long as I can remember. I understand that not all dogs and cats are the same some need more affection and attention than others, some need more exercise, certain diets etc. i’ve also had experience pet sitting in addition to caring for my own animals. I love all fur friends and feel that we need them just as much as they need us. I will care for your pet as my own and be sure that all of its needs are met. I will pay special attention to its needs and know how to handle emergency situations. I also have a car if transportation is needed. I am home for the time being and have plenty of free time, I work Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays but it’s flexible where I can go to check on the dog during those times. I have a huge yard and live far from main roads so traffic safety will not be an issue, I also live quite spread out from other houses.

Taylor W.
“Taylor has been caring for my pets for about a decade now. Though some of the menagerie has changed over the years, it has typically been two dogs, two cats, and a bunny. Often with persnickety eating habits and frequently with health issues to tend to. My wife can be a little exacting where animal care standards are concerned, but Taylor never lets her down. We always come home to a house full of critters that are healthy and seem to have not noticed we were even gone they've been so thoroughly showered in love. If you need someone who will love your furry family as if they are her own, Taylor is the petsitter for you.”
