“Nicole did a great job adjusting to last minute changes in watching Maxine. There was a last minute need to administer meds and ointments and keep an eye on a surgical wound. Nicole did a great job adjusting to the situation. Thanks for that.”
“Devaney was great! My dog Junie takes a little extra time to warm up to people- Devaney was patient, allowing Junie to slowly build comfort. Devaney was communicative, sending pictures throughout the weekend, and left my house very clean! Would definitely recommend”
“Alex has stopped by to feed/play with our older two boys and spent a weekend with our not-yet-13-week-old puppy. We cannot thank her enough for her communication and obvious love for pets.”
About: I pet sat a dog, puppy to senior for 3 years and walked her 7 years. I owned and took care of my cat for 15 years. Whenever possible, weekdays and/or weekends preferably afternoon time to evening! I am flexible to fit what’s available for my clients needs. Encouraged to help out anyway I can! During my childhood, my cat was an outdoor cat and we fed him according to schedule and health benefit to the cat. Accountability is important!
About: I have grown up with animals and am an animal lover by nature. I have house sat for several families, having experience with multiple dog homes, cats, and birds. I have provided cared for rambunctious puppies and kittens as well, and I love to meet new furry friends! Currently I am working full-time with the weekends free, and I have pet sit before simultaneously. When I am pet sitting the animals I’m taking care of become my priority and any spare moment I get I dedicate to their well being. I am comfortable leashing and walking dogs, even ones that pull. If I do leave during the day I like to crate the dogs I watch so they have a safe space when I’m gone, and I make sure to keep the floor clear of any hazards that could cause a potential problem.
“THE PERFECT PET SITTER! Katy is trustworthy, communicative, flexible, and caring—I swear she took better care of Penny than we do! Katy followed every one of my psychotic instructions, sent us so many great videos and photos, and kept us informed at all times. She was proactive in confirming appointment times and asking questions, and most of all—she kept our pup entertained the entire time with walks, toys, outdoor play, runs, and lots of extra affection. I couldn’t ask for better. Thank you Katy!!”

About: Any time a friend or a neighbor goes out of town or needs help, I'm the first one they call. I love spending time with animals and making sure they are happy, healthy and their needs are met! I love working with all ages. I’ve been around dogs and cats for pretty much my whole life. But I have a love for all animals! I know it can sometimes be hard to leave your furry loved ones with a stranger, but I can promise you I will treat them like my own! They’re in good hands(: I'm currently working a 9-5, but looking for something to keep me busy before and after work! (and weekends when I'm off work as well) I'm very passionate about working with animals I’m super flexible with everything so if you have any concerns, reach out to me and I’m sure we can figure it out! I have two friendly cats who love to play and get along with all animals! They also don't mind hanging out in the basement if need be. I've got a large area indoors and outdoors to keep your pet busy or they can relax on the couch!
