Camille was absolutely amazing with our fur-baby. She was super responsive, on time and willing to help in any way. She also sent us pictures of them napping together, hiking in the park together and just having a great time. We found it amusing that we were the one's on vacation but our dog came out of it looking like she had the best time. Highly recommended!

Jade was our Superwoman to our 2 energy and overly needy (in affection) pitbulls. They had a great time with her, including many walks, lots of naps. Jade was professional, confident, capable and kept us amused with photos and videos. We will be contacting her again! Thanks Jade!!

We are very pleased with the exemplary care that Alexa provided to our dog Finnegan during a several day stay in our home. Finnegan warmed up to her within seconds of meeting her. She was proactive in communicating with us regularly, providing much-appreciated pictures. Alexa has been a caring, reliable, and responsible sitter whom we’d recommend to others and plan to call upon again!

Lisbeth is a reliable and responsible sitter who took excellent care of our dog in our home this past weekend. As soon as he met her, he immediately connected to her, which put our minds at ease. Throughout her stay with our dog she followed through with everything asked of her and kept us well-informed with daily pictures. I would definitely recommend Lisbeth and plan to seek her services in the future!

Salette was fantastic with our dog, Nox and I would highly recommend her. Our dog can be very skittish and exhibits herding behaviors, but Salette read our dog’s behavior the minute she walked in. Nox also has to take medications for her allergies, Salette followed her regimen very well and we noticed that Nox’s skin was in really good condition when we returned from our trip. Salette also had excellent communication while we were away, making my husband and I feel confident that there were no issues while we were away. Our place looked just like we left it, making our return even easier.

Elissa was so great when she house sat for us to watch our cat and dog. She sent plenty of updates and made sure she had all the information she needed, like double checking the feeding schedule and making sure there were no medications to administer. Will definitely see if she’s available the next time we need help with the pets!

She was very organized, attentive, and followed all our instructions perfectly. It’s clear she genuinely cares about animals. We felt completely at ease knowing our puppy was in such good hands.

I highly recommend CeeCee for your pet and home sitting needs. We hired her to look after our overly affectionate cat and our quirky pit-mix pup while out of town for 6 days. CeeCee was communicative, sent pictures, and took care of needs as requested, including watering plants. She kept the house tidy, even throwing in a load of wash at the end of her stay. We will definitely be repeat customers for future pet sitting needs.

During the most demanding time, Thanksgiving weekend, she and her boyfriend Tim took care of my cat Mani so well. I saw she was having fun time to play with him and never forgot his treats as I requested. Thank you for taking care of him so well.

About: I have direct experience caring for pets of all ages, from energetic puppies to senior dogs who need extra patience. I'm comfortable with feeding routines and administering basic medications. I ensure each pet gets the exercise and care they're accustomed to. What sets me apart is my attention and love! I treat every pet like my own, making sure they feel safe and cared for while you’re away! I’m home from college until July 24th, and I have a flexible, open schedule that lets me prioritize pet care. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and extended stays, and I make sure pets receive consistent attention and care. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on maintaining their usual routine so they feel comfortable and secure. I carefully follow all care instructions, including feeding, exercise, and any medications if needed. I’m very mindful of safety, keeping pets supervised, ensuring environments are secure, and avoiding anything that could put them at risk. I also treat your home with respect, cleaning up after myself and your pet, and leaving everything neat and tidy. I also keep communication open with updates and photos! My goal is to create a stress-free, loving environment where your pet feels at home.

About: I’ve cared for dogs for over 10 years, from puppies to senior dogs. I currently have a senior small dog of my own, so I understand the patience and attention pets need at all life stages. I enjoy getting to know each dog’s personality and helping them feel loved and comfortable. Whether your dog loves long walks, playtime, or just companionship, I’ll make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for! I recently graduated with my master’s degree and currently have a very flexible schedule, which gives me plenty of time to dedicate to pet care throughout the week. I’m available for walks, drop-ins, playtime, and lots of attention and companionship for your pets. I work hard to provide your pets with comfort and safety. I take time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, and needs so they feel as comfortable as possible. I’m especially patient with shy or nervous pets and will always provide a calm, caring, and attentive environment.

Brianna is the best in the business by far, first off my pups loved her & she took extremely great care of my two huskies. Brianna is trust worthy & reliable. Brianna communicated everyday and sent pictures to keep in the loop. I was skeptical at first bringing a stranger in my home but Brianna changed that quickly for me. I would defend rebook Brianna.

About: If you give me the opportunity to care for your pet, you'll feel at ease knowing I'll take care of it as if it were my own. I'll give it all the love and attention it needs to make you feel happy. Right now I'd like to dedicate myself solely to animals and their care. I have every day of the week free to dedicate myself to them. For me, all animals deserve the same treatment and care. I always give them my best, no matter the occasion. I will always give you all my love, attention and you will never lack my care.

Peaches had the best time! It gave us so much peace of mind knowing she was being cared for by someone so kind, reliable, and trustworthy. We came home to a happy, well-loved dog, and it was clear she had been given lots of attention and care. Communication was easy, and everything felt very comfortable from start to finish. We would absolutely book again and highly recommend!

This was our first time using Katherine for dog sitting our 8 year old lab mix, Gus. We needed someone on very short notice who was willing to stay at our house. Katherine was very responsive and flexible to our needs. Our plans were difficult to nail down and Katherine was easy going and adjusted the reservation without hesitation. While we were away she was outstanding at keeping us in the loop with pictures and videos of Gus. Getting those reminders that Gus was being well cared for, played with and well fed was a big relief. I would recommend Katherine to anyone and look forwards to using her in the future!
