I can’t say enough great things about Camille! From the moment we met, it was clear how much she genuinely cares about animals. She gave lots of love, attention, and playtime—and kept us updated with messages and photos, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. Camille is reliable, kind, and professional—we will absolutely be booking again. Highly recommend to anyone looking for top-notch care. ★★★★★

Lavinia watched our Golden puppy for 6 days. We were kept informed every day. Mac seemed so happy during the week. Lavinia played with him to get that "puppy energy" out and he loved being with her. When we got home everything was perfect. Lavinia was very responsible and it was clear she wanted to make sure we were all happy with the arrangements and we absolutely were. I cannot say enough about this incredible sitter. We will definitely use Lavinia again!

Maria took such great care of my kitties while I was away camping with my husband! Both of my cats are a little over a year old and need a lot of play/ monitoring of their quirks. I really appreciate her attention to detail and the love she put into taking care of them. I highly recommend her! ❤️

Ricky "petsat" our elderly dog and 2 cats in our home for 4 nights and they were well taken care of. Our dog requires multiple medications and Ricky was comfortable with administering. He didn't balk at cleaning up little cat puke! He is quick with communicating and sent us photo updates. I felt comfortable that our fur babies were being well cared for. Thank you Ricky.

About: In highschool I was very popular in my neighborhood from doing there dog nails, to dog sitting, over night stays, and even medications. Even back in high school I had a part time and school and still made sure the fur babies were taken care of. To this day I still dog sit for my neighbor. I also worked at a doggy daycare for about 6 months then i moved, I learned so much while I was there in that short period of time from learning to gain respect and how to control a group of 15+ dogs . And was in a animal science program in highschool with a mentorship at a clinic, then tried to go to college for my vet tech degree but too expensive(still paying that off). I also do have a very energetic German shepherd who I train every day she knows pretty much everything(sit, lay down, roll over,paw, other paw,high five, spin, heel, center, look, leave it, back up, and wait). I also dog sat for my boyfriend's coworker who had an older pointer who had a seziure not only did I comfort the dog but I called owner asap then vet, I then called off of work. Just because it's not my animal doesn't mean I will love them any less. But the take away from all that is I have a lot of experience in the animal department. I'm currently working part time and have a lot of free time on my hands and love being around animals . I only work wensday-saturday the other days I'm free. But as you can see with my profile I do have my own fur baby but my boyfriend never works nights or weekends so she won't be alone. For the pets at clients housing not only will I respond to you text asap even if I'm busy, I will also ask for guide lines and try to keep your dog on the schedule you have them on consistency is key, especially when a change like you leaving happens. I also am a big over thinker so before I let the dog out if you have a yard I will always make sure the gates are close and secure and make sure there's nothing laying out that would harm them. When I dog sit I imagine as if it's my own dog.

About: I am a lifelong dog owner who loves all types of dogs! I have been told that I have a very calming energy and am very good with all types of dogs. I strive to make dogs feel comfortable and safe in their surroundings. I am a very active person who will be able to tire your pup out on a walk, jog, or playing fetch at the park! I am a graduate student with a flexible schedule, so I am able to accommodate your dog during the work day in addition to weekends. Outside of school I enjoy going on walks around town and would love to bring your dog along! When your dog is in my care, I will make them a part of my little family. I follow all rules that you have for your pup regarding furniture, food, walks, etc. I can accommodate reasonable care requests for your dog as well. When walking your dog, I will give them as much leash space as is safe and comfortable depending on your dogs needs/walking style.

Madeline took wonderful care of Dottie Mae and June Bug while we were away. She provided consistent communication throughout their stay and sent plenty of pictures, which gave us great peace of mind and let us see how happy and well cared for they were. It was clear that she genuinely cared about our dogs and treated them like her own. We came home to two happy, relaxed pups, and we couldn't have asked for a better experience. Madeline was a fantastic caretaker, and we will absolutely be using her again in the future. Highly recommend!

Corwin took very good care of my two 15 year old Munchkin Cats. I had him do overnights since Mochi, the female needs medication daily. I rarely go away more than 4 days and I was very comfortable leaving for over a week. Corwin sent me many photos and I could see how both cats loved him being around! I definitely would recommend Corwin to take care of your fur babies! 😻😻
