Tiffany is awesome! She did drop-in visits with our cat Marshall while my husband and I went out of town for a trip. He warmed up to her right away. She is very communicative and super quick to respond. Would definitely recommend her to others and will be re-booking in the future!

Jackie was great with our pups! We’ve recently had a mobility issue with our one dog but she was understanding and was able to provide her medicine without any issues. She took our other pup out for a little walk each time in addition to taking them both outside for breaks. I could easily see how much fun our pups had with Jackie in the photos that she sent over!

Regan was absolutely wonderful and put my mind at ease while I traveled for a conference. I have a sick cat, and she was not only understanding, but also communicative and flexible in taking care of him. She also sent tons of photos. I would have her help again in a heartbeat!

Abby, was so great with our Sailor. She has a friendly, confident and warm way with dogs! Sailor loved her right away when they met. I could tell how excellent her caregiving was as he did all his routines great with her-- a walk, bedtime routine, ate his meals, was calm and great when we got home. He is used to us being around and I hadn't left him for an overnight for some years, so it is all the more impressive that he adjusted so quickly to Abby. Also, we loved getting the detailed updates and pictures! We are so happy we were able to have Abby help us for these couple of days and know Sailor will want to have her back! Thanks for taking care with all our little notes about things, Abby! Hope we can have you back soon!

About: I’ve grown up around dogs my entire life and caring for them has always come naturally to me. I recently graduated from college and moved to the city, and I’m excited to continue spending time with animals through dog walking and pet sitting. Over the years, I’ve pet sat and walked dogs for neighbors, friends, and family members, giving me experience with a wide variety of breeds, sizes, and personalities. My family has Dane Mastiffs, so I’m very comfortable handling large breeds, but I also adore small dogs like my aunt’s two mini dachshunds. Whether your dog is energetic and playful or calm and cuddly, I’ll make sure they feel safe, loved, and cared for while you’re away. I understand how important routines, exercise, patience, and affection are for dogs, and I’ll always treat your pet like part of the family. I’m dependable, attentive, and happy to provide updates and photos so you can feel confident your pup is in good hands! I work full-time, but my schedule is similar to shift work. I have open mornings and the occasional free weekend! Pet care is something I enjoy, gets me outside, and is a little bit of exercise all at once. I’m organized, dependable, and committed to making sure pets receive the attention, exercise, and care they need. Whether it’s morning walks, midday check-ins, or evening feedings, I’m happy to work with your pet’s routine and provide updates (and lots of pictures!) so you can feel confident they’re in good hands. My goal is for the pets to feel as comfortable and relaxed as possible. That means sticking to their routine, staying in familiar environments, and being aware of the surrounding stressors. I am great at following clear instructions for feeding, walks, playtime, medications, litter box care, and any special routines their pets are used to. I also keep homes clean and tidy, provide regular updates and photos, and make sure pets feel safe, loved, and well cared for while their owners are away. I can provide services at the client's home; I don't have boarding facilities.

Danielle is awesome. We have four dogs, three of them on the bigger side, and one has to wear a belly band due to marking in the house. She’s awesome about getting it off him before going out to potty and putting a new one on. It’s an odd task, but she handles it with ease! She does weekly visits for us and is great with the pups. Trustworthy and thorough - we highly recommend her!

About: I’ve grown up with dogs all my life - I’ve got the baby pictures to prove it. I’ve trained all my pups to give paw. I work from home so my schedule is typically flexible. I’d prefer to keep my home visits within the lunch hour - 11AM to 3PM. I can be super adaptable to meet the needs for your best friend. As a dog mom to an anxious girlie, I can be patient!

Heather is very patient and considered all the instructions we had for her thoughtfully. Our dog needs some time to warm up to strangers and Heather accommodated for that. We went for a couple of walks together and had her over as well before we booked our first check-in. Now our dog is starting to get happily excited when he sees her. She's easy to communicate with and we're very happy with how everything went. Looking forward to booking her services again!
