Lisa was wonderful and I would recommend her to anyone looking for care for their pet! She asked to do a meet and greet (at no charge) ahead of time which I really appreciated - it was great to be able to explain instructions in person. She arrived on time, sent updates and was an overall pleasure to work with. Will definitely use again!

I prefer to book with Angelina, especially on longer vacations because she does a great job. She reliable, always shows up, and does a little extra and thinks of small ways to help.

Nalisha was amazing and got to meet me and my dog, Henry, before doing the drop-in visits so she could get a feel for where everything was, what my Henry likes, etc., which did a lot to help me feel comfortable and confident that he was well taken care of while I was away. She was accommodating of my schedule for drop-in visits and also took super cute pics of Henry. I would highly recommend her to anyone!

About: I'm available all day Monday and Tuesday most weeks to care for your pup while you're away. I've been a dog mom for the past year and I love it so much I wish I could get another! Now is not the right time for that so I figured, why not pet sit! I live next to a dog park where I take my puppy (he's 7 months) every day for at least 30minutes to an hour. I'll make sure to take lots of pictures and videos of your dog enjoying themselves on our walks along Freedom Parkway or while we're hanging out at Freedom Barkway, the dog park. Let me know all your dog's special needs and I will make sure to take care of them while you're away!

Linnea was great! We were gone for two weeks and I could always count on her being at our house at a specific time to look after our two cats. She took excellent care of them. I previously used another sitter from this site and when I would come home one of our cats (who is very loving but also extremely high strung) would be all wound up and "hyper". This time when we came home she was calm and relaxed and ready to snuggle. I will definitely be using Linnea again. She has become my number one choice.

About: I’ve had pets for the past 27years of my life and can’t imagine my life without them. Pets may only be around for part of our lives but we’re their whole lives and giving them the best happiest one possible is always my goal. I have lots of patience for your stubborn pets and tons of energy for your hyper ones. Have confidence knowing I will fulfill all your pets needs while keeping them safe, clean/tidy, and happy. Currently a stay at home mom of a teen daughter who is going to college soon and needing to save up money for schooling and other expenses. I’m experienced with many things; long walks, higher intensity activities for your bigger pals, training simple commands and potty training, preparing/cooking nutritional meals or simple feedings, some grooming like baths, brushing hair/teeth. I’m also very adamant about safety and good hygiene so I’ll always be making sure your pet and their space is clean, tidy, and most importantly safe.

Cheryl was amazing caring for our dogs. This was the first time we had left them for more than a short time and she was awesome. Cared so much for our senior frenchie and our chiweenie. Sent tons of pictures and communication on how they were doing. Gave us peace of mind knowing she was dropping in on them. Went above and beyond when they were not eating and getting my girl to take her meds. She is the best!!!!

About: I believe that pets are more than animals, they are also family. My priority is for them to be comfortable, healthy, well taken care of, and happy. I also have experience with giving medications such as oral, ear drops, and eye drops. Although this may sound a little random, I also speak Spanish for those who have pets that only understand that language. If your pet likes to sleep on the bed, I have no problem with that. I tend to enjoy the company anyway. I can house sit any day of the week/weekend. However, I do have another job that I go to: Monday-Friday. Other than that, I’m usually free. Before I go to work or anywhere, I make sure that I either walk my dogs, or at least take them outside the yard so they can do whatever they need to do. I also like to stay with them an hour or two before leaving, just because I like for them to have a little bit of cuddle or fun time. I also like to take them to the dog park to socialize them and for them to have their exercise. I usually try to keep them in a healthy diet but, if I do feed them human food, I always look up information to make sure if it’s healthy or not because, why should they miss out? They loves car rides as well, so I tend to bring them with me wherever they can. They’re my travel buddies. We also sometimes go chill at the beach, and whenever we do that, I always bring a bag of necessities such as toys, plenty of waters, their water bowls, their leash, and doggy bags. I sometimes bring a couple of their favorite treats or stop by a store to get something we can eat.
