Carolina was great! She stopped in morning and night to feed, give water, and play with our Australian shepherd for a few nights. Luna had so much fun with her and was still a happy girl when we got home. She sent lots of pictures and videos and asked clarifying questions to make sure everything was as it should be! I would book her again for her awesome help

Mary was so great with my dog, will be using her as my regular dog sitter going forward. Was super attentive and interactive with him from the first meet and greet. Great communication from her and loved the check ins she sent while she came to visit, very glad I found somebody so happy to spend some time with him when I’m at work. 10/10 recommend!

About: I have cared for dogs since I was young and understand the importance of keeping pets safe, comfortable, and loved. I make sure pets receive proper care, attention, exercise, and affection while their owners are away. I currently do not have a job so I will have all day to play with your pups and take care of them. I am available from 9 am to 3 pm Monday to Friday. I do not have a fenced yard but I will keep your fur babies safe and keep an eye on them at all times. I do have 2 other dogs that are friendly so your fur babies can have someone to play with.

Carolyn was fantastic! This was the first time we used a cat sitter while we were away, but we had nothing to worry about with Carolyn. She was so great with our cat- she really took lots of time with him and made him feel comfortable and loved while we were gone. She kept us updated each day (and made us laugh with her daily reports and photos of our cat). Would highly recommend Carolyn!

About: I have experience walking all different sizes of dogs and love spending time and going for a long walks and I am excited to walk a dog I plan my days around the pets I care for. I set aside specific time blocks for walks, feedings, and check-ins to make sure each pet gets the attention and care they deserve. Pet care is a consistent and enjoyable part of my weekly routi In a client’s home, I maintain the pet’s normal routine as closely as possible — feeding, walks, medications, and bedtime rituals included. I keep their space clean, make sure they have fresh water at all times, and give them plenty of love and attention. I also respect the client’s home, keeping it neat and secure while they’re aw

Mary took great care of my cat over the weekend. He's usually very shy, but she got him to come out and sent the cutest pictures. She was very kind, easy to communicate with, and made the whole process stress-free.

Terry is the absolute best dog sitter! She is wonderful with our dog and very professional! We’ve had Terry as our dog sitter for several years when we go on vacations or weekend get aways. As our dog has gotten older, we don’t worry at all that she will be taken care of while in Terry’s care. I highly recommend Terry for pets young and old. Thank you Terry!
