Susan is incredible and I'm so glad to have found someone my very anxious dog can feel comfortable with when I'm gone. Susan kept me updated (with pictures when Jade would cooperate) regularly and was kind and patient, even when Jade decided to turn up the dramatics. Would absolutely recommend for anyone with an anxious dog who needs a little extra love and care!

Darlene and her husband provide a safe and caring environment. We were able to enjoy our vacation knowing that our fur baby was in good hands. Darlene is wonderful about maintaining communication and occasionally just sending a photo so you know everything is OK. Our little guy is a handful and it appears that she was able to handle his quirks with ease. I would recommend Darlene without hesitation.

Haley and Anna are the best. Nellie is a nervous girl, and they do everything they can to make her comfortable and happy. She’s going back for another stay next month!

Alex took such great care of my dog! He provided plenty of updates, including photos and messages, which gave me peace of mind while I was away. My dog came home happy, well-exercised, and clearly well-loved.

Caterina did a great job caring for my two boys. She’s got space for walks and room inside for resting. I think the dogs enjoyed their visit.

We booked Steven after our dog sitter cancelled last minute. We're lucky he was available. He scheduled a meet and greet asap, even with the short notice. He was communicative, kept us updated, and took great care of our dog.

As always, our boys Richard and Philip had an incredible time staying with Robert and Eileen! They got lots of exercise in the big fenced yard, despite the tundra-like conditions, and we got detailed updates every day with cute photos and videos. Richard even learned to fetch! Robert and Eileen are gems, and I would leave them a 10 star review if I had the option!

Ziggy had a fantastic time spending the weekend with Jessica & fam. We’ll definitely turn to them first next time we need to find care for our pup. They were extremely communicative and we loved getting the photo and video updates throughout the weekend.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is that since I was eight years old I have been taking care of cats, dogs, reptiles, and rodents. I have 25 rescue cats back home in California in which I work with rescues for free vaccines and neutering and spaying. Lots of the cats I take care of have special needs or require administering medication. I also have experience with dogs with special needs such as being spoonfed. I work part-time over the winter and will spend most days indoors studying for LSAT. I go for walks on breaks and usually give attention to my pets and others between breaks or as needed! My house has spare rooms where I can house pets if they are not comfortable with my cats! My cats can remain on third floor if needed with free roam acccess around house for cats and for dogs it varies on a case by case basis.
