“Kacie was wonderful. She came to our home for a meet and greet and all went very well. The day before her booking, she contacted us in order to confirm. She arrived, did her thing and left everything perfectly. Our dog was happy and the house was left in good shape. Kacie even left a note for us and a stocking filled with treats for Noelle. Unbelievable kindness. Thank you, Kacie.”
“Sandra did a great job with my puppy Zeus. We were up here hiking for the weekend and by coordinating a mid day visit we were able to stay out longer and still bring our puppy on the trip. She was right on time and sent me lots of pictures! I highly recommend !”
“Awesome pet sitters! They came on time, every time, and my cautious cat even warmed up to them after a few visits. I would recommend them and hire them again in the future.”
About: I have spent many overnights at homes while providing pet care. The durations of these stays have been up to a week. I do very well with following clear directions for feeding, medications, as well as other pet care needs. This includes affection and playing— I absolutely love dogs and cats! I am a teacher, which of course is a very busy job. However, I do not work over the summer, which means I have lots of flexibility in these months. I am also available during most weekends! I care for pets in my clients’ homes by following instructions regarding feeding, medications, going outside, as well as anything else that may be necessary! When owners are gone, I recognize it is best for the pets to keep their routines as consistent as possible! I respect any rules clients may have for their pets (e.g. where around they house they are allowed, any dietary limitations, and any necessary precautions to take so that the pets stay safe!)
About: Hi! I’ve been pet sitting and had my own dog for many years. Now, I have experience from drop-in visits to extended overnight stays, with many different types of needs. I’m dedicated to caring for a pet the same way their owner would and look forward to spending time with animals. I work from home most days and can accommodate a flexible potty schedule and activity level. I enjoy taking breaks to spend with pets, to get outside or tuck in on the sofa! I have an enclosed garden and large, unfenced yard. We are well back from the main road so pets are welcome to explore the neighborhood.
“We are forever grateful for the care and attentiveness Robert gave to our dogs. He was the first stranger we asked to care for our animals which is in itself an unnerving experience. He gave extremely thorough accounts of our pets demeanor, energy level and any other pertinent information. We highly recommend him. We will certainly contact him in the future when we need a care giver for our pets.”

I would highly recommend her for any pet care situation. Thank you Ariel”

“Olivia is amazing with pets!!! I have had Olivia housesit for me several times in the past several years while having dogs in the house. She is loving and cares deeply for animals. What I’ve loved most about her is the connection she seems to have with all animals. I have a, let’s say, more difficult antisocial little dog, but Olivia only saw this as a challenge and made a point of always going out it of her way to make my dog feel that she cared about her. She did so in a quiet patient way, which earned her my dog’s trust. I have never had any issues with Olivia caring for my dogs the many times she took care of them. I’d highly recommend Olivia to take care of your pets!!”
