“Our kitties love Olivia and so do we! Always going the extra mile to make sure they are loved when we are gone! We are thankful for her updates and that she spends one on one time with them. She’s a 10!”
“We had Chris do drop in visits for our two large dogs for a weekend. Chris and her daughter went above and beyond what we asked of her. We love our dogs and have high expectations for their care, which she exceeded. They came during a snowstorm and took the dogs out to play in a foot of snow, which they loved. She sent us pictures to update us and left a detailed note about each visit. They even came more frequently than we had asked for. I can’t recommended them enough and will most definitely be using their services again.”
“She was awesome! Always made her appointment times and easy to work with. The dogs had a blast with Vickie! Tons of playtime and smiles in every picture! Will definitely rebook in the future.”
“Trudy is very caring, timely, shares plenty of pictures, and is easy to communicate with. She wants the best for your pet. We would highly recommend Trudy. We have rebooked with her multiple times.”
About: I’ve trained multiple puppies and have my own senior dog. I know all dogs have different needs and need to be loved in different ways. I am able to feed, walk, bathe, and play with your pets! I am available after 3:30 pm any day. I am available to drop by and care for your pet or take them on walks any day of the week! I will always keep a close eye on your dog. Dogs can have a mind of their own sometimes but I will ensure they are always safe in my care!
About: I have been lucky enough to be surrounded by animals my entire life. I have experience training therapy dogs, rescue dogs, leash training, and teaching tricks/commands. A strength of mine is I am an avid long distance runner/hiker. So if you have a high energy pet that needs those longer walks I’m happy to oblige! I believe every animal has a unique personality and set of needs. I would love to get to know your furry friend and their preferences! I’m currently working as an ASL interpreter in the SF school district. I have a set work schedule of 7:00-3:00 M-F. Besides that I am open and available to fit your needs. I believe pets need a clean and safe environment to thrive. They need plenty of socialization, enrichment and attention. I also value open and honest communication. I’m happy to provide pictures, updates/progress reports about how your furry friend is doing!
“She has taken great care of my dogs while I'm at work and they need to go outside. Sends pictures as I requested. I recommend her to anyone that needs someone for drop ins, etc.”
About: Hi there! My name is Allyson and I’ve been caring for animals as long as I can remember. I grew up on a farm, where I looked after our family dogs and barn cats, so animals have always been a big part of my life! During college, I worked at a doggy daycare and boarding center, where I gained hands-on experience supervising play groups, feeding, and keeping pups happy and safe. I also worked at a veterinary office, assisting with the kennel area. There I helped with daily care like feeding, walking, cleaning, and administering medications as needed. In addition to this, I’ve often pet sat for family members’ dogs, giving them plenty of love, exercise, and attention while their owners were away. I’m currently working an 8-5, but I will be available most weekends. On the weekdays I will be available after 5 PM to help how you need! I follow your instructions carefully to keep pets safe and comfortable in their own home. I make sure doors and gates are secure, walks are safe, and pets stick to their normal routine. I’ll give them plenty of love, playtime, and attention while also keeping your home tidy.
“Mikayla was so great with our cats, even when they got into trouble and made a mess. She sent us great photos and I'm confident that our cats were well cared for while we were gone!”
“Thea was great with our grumpy old husky and our crazy young husky at the same time. Kind, good with animals, flexible schedule, and sent plenty of pics and updates when checking on our dogs.”
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life, so they’ve always been a big part of my world! My family dogs had a few litters over the years, which taught me a lot about caring for both puppies and their mamas. Now I have a pup of my own, and I absolutely love being a dog mom! I work during the week, but I’m always around to help out on weekends if I’m in town! I’m also totally open to jumping in after work whenever needed! I’ll care for your pet like they’re my own! I have a sweet dog who absolutely loves other dogs, so your pup will have a built-in buddy while you’re away if they need!
“I was in need of a new sitter for my cat and I found Emma! She was very responsive to my requests for bookings. She even did a meet and greet with Tux and I which was very reassuring. I had a last minute change in plans and Emma was able to be flexible with her schedule. Tux and I already have our next booking set up with her.”
About: I have taken care of animals since I could walk. I have had the pleasure of caring for senior dogs and cats, puppies and kittens, goats, hermit crabs, turtles, calfs, and sheep. I also make dog bandannas for our girls and then started to sell them at Stacy's vintage boutique in Tea, SD. I would love to send you photos and videos throughout the stay of your pet! My doxie, Peanut is a little shy around new dogs but I'm hoping this will help her become more social and confident. Annie, my cowboy corgi is friendly to dogs her size. Which is why we will only be accepting small dogs. I trained both of my girls about 10-15 different commands and this summer I would like to start agility training with them. I am super excited because they are so ready to please us and "work". I would be happy to offer some training while you fur baby stays with us! For example my girls know: sit, stay, come, lay down, roll over, up, back, stand, yoga, go, fetch and hide and seek. I do currently work full time but will be available most weekends. In the summer we do go hiking at different parks for excersize for us and our dogs. We live in a rented townhome so we do not have a fenced in yard. We do always leash our girls to either their collar or a harness. We have plenty of toys, treats, and chews. I also make them frozen pumpkin yogurt treats in the summer.
