“Angie was the best pet sitter we could have ever asked for! She gave several updates a day on our dog and three cats. She also sent many pictures to reassure us that our fur babies were in good hands. This was the first time we left our anxious dog with someone other than my father-in-law, but our pup seemed to warm up to Angie quickly and I knew she was getting the best care! We thought we might need her for an additional night on top of the 5 she already did, and Angie immediately said she would be happy to do it. She left our house clean. We 100% recommend Angie and will definitely be using her again in the future!”

“Very pleased with Lacey's care of our home and dogs! They loved her to pieces and she was very comfortable with them even though they are big, strong , scary-looking rescue pitties! Highly recommend!”

“Ben did such a great job! Even my shy and less friendly cats grew to like him and be out and about the house when he was here. He sent me daily updates and some great photos. Truly the most relaxed I’ve been on a vacation recently, knowing my cats and my house were in such good hands.”

“Tereasa was SO GREAT with Henry! She arranged to meet with us in advance to make sure he was comfortable and kept me updated with pictures throughout our trip. I know that Henry was well cared for by his calmness when we got home. Normally if left alone he flips out as soon as I open the door. His demeanor when we arrived was as if we never left! He was in such great hands that I don’t even know if he noticed we were gone. This was my first time having someone housesit and I’m so glad we did. I would 100% recommend Tereasa to anyone looking for a reliable and loving sitter!”
“Kari and Clint did great great job taking care of our hens and dog and humming birds!!! Happy and thankful that they care for our dog.. He can be a handful! Kari was very flexible as our travels brought us home on overnight flight very very early in the morning the day after our booking. She cleaned our home before she left. We have peace of mind when she’s watching our pets. Five stars !!!!”

About: I am new to pet sitting but I love animals and pets! I grew up having a lot of dogs in my house and an very rapidly with taking care off your pet. I am able to work with all types of dogs from puppies to seniors and big to small. I currently work part time so my days and hours are pretty flexible. I am a college student looking to make some extra money for school but also enjoy hanging out with fur babies. I am very flexible with what owners can accommodate wether if ur dogs needs to be taken out on a leash or if you have a fenced property.
About: I will genuinely treat your pups like my own! I’ve had pets ever since I can remember - dogs, cats, & even fish. Today, I'm a proud plant & cat mom. Because I love traveling myself, I totally know how stressful it is to leave your babies behind & how important it is to have reliable, trustworthy help you can count on. I love taking dogs on adventures, whether that’s hitting trails to burn off energy or just enjoying a long, sniff filled neighborhood walk. I have experience with all kinds of personalities from high energy pups who want to play non stop, to sweet seniors who just want a slow stroll & some good couch cuddles. I love sending lots of photo updates & making sure your dogs feel safe, happy, & loved! I have a super flexible schedule. My days are open enough that I can easily prioritize structured potty breaks & long walks, without having to rush back to a strict 9-5 desk job. In my home your pet becomes a part of the family! My place is a pet friendly environment where they can fully relax & get cozy. While I don’t have a fence, I have a massive yard with a secure lead, so the dogs can get plenty of space while staying safe. Plus, they’ll get tons of attention & plenty of couch cuddles! If I’m coming to your house for a walk or a drop in, I’ll treat your space with total respect. I’ll strictly follow whatever routine you have for feeding, crating, or locking up. I'm always mindful of the little things like wiping muddy paws if it's rainy & making sure the water bowl is totally fresh before I leave. Plus, you can definitely count on lots of fun photo updates so you know exactly how great they’re doing! Whether your pet is hanging out at my place or I’m visiting yours, making sure they feel safe and comfortable is my biggest priority.
“Jarrod was awesome, he really treated our house and pets like his own. He tidied up our house and did the dishes, he even vacuumed! He consistently communicated with us and sent us all the photos! Thank you, Jarrod!”

“Andrew is an exceptional dog, cat sitter! I'm very picky who I'll let watch my best friend & stay in my house and he did an amazing job. He communicated regularly with pics and videos and everyone was happy when I returned! I can't wait to use him regularly when we need a dog/cat sitter! Thank you Andrew!!”

“Kelly was the perfect choice for housesitting my pets. She had her hands full and graciously attended to each pet and their certain needs. My oldest pup had a little separation depression and wasn’t eating a lot so she made her some chicken and hand fed her some nuggets and gave her extra assurance to make her feel okay! I would highly recommend this sitter! She took great care of my pets and my house!”

“As I am sure most pet parents considering a pet sitter are, I think of my pets as my babies. I was getting really stressed out about leaving my 3 cats for 3 days and finding someone to watch them. I was so relieved when I found a sitter and it was an amazing experience. They sent photos, videos, and kept open communication. I felt like my cats were in great hands the entire time and while I was excited to come home, I felt less nervous about being away. I am definitely going to be using them in the future again and would recommend them to anyone.”

About: I grew up with 3 large breed dogs and have done 2 years of dog walking / pet sitting! During my 2 years of pet sitting, I took care of puppies from 6 weeks old to senior dogs. Things that fell under the description of ‘took care of’ are; picking up poop, feeding / following dietary schedules, administering medications, walks, play time, bathroom breaks, training work, mental stimulation (snuffle mats, kongs, etc.) I do daily dog walks, and am helping my parents raise and train a German shepherd! I also have 2 cats of my own at home. I will travel to your home by car! I do not offer care for your pets in my home due to my cats not being very sociable haha!!
