“Jeanette was great. Even our shy dog liked her as soon as meeting her. She provided consistent updates. She left the house clean and was so kind as to bring treats for our dogs and toys for our cat. She also went above and beyond to make sure our cat got recess. We highly recommend her and would trust our pets with her again.”
“Jessica did a wonderful job with our two senior dogs! One is very grumpy with significant mobility issues and she handled with ease and confidence. She kept us up to date on how things were and added lots of pics. She went above and beyond taking care of doggos!”
“Wanda is a wonderful, so caring and attuned to animals and their needs. I felt totally comfortable with Wanda staying at my house, and appreciated the communication and updates while I was away. Coco was really relaxed and content when I returned home, when often she is very emotional, like “where were you???”, so I took this as a good sign that she enjoyed Wanda’s company. Will definitely book with her again!”
“Jamie is wonderful. She strayed at the house and we came Home to a happy dog. She sent photos and kept us updated. Daisy ate while she was here which is saying a lot. Thank you Jamie for being good to our baby!”
“Justin was great. Communication was fantastic. He kept us updated and sent pics. He took great care and played with the dogs and just made me feel better that someone was home with my baby. I would definitely recommend Justin and would book with him again.”
“JaNiya was incredible with my dog! She is very knowledgeable about animals and handled my reactive pup with ease. I highly recommend trusting her with your pets and your home :)”
“Eric is fantastic!! Our dogs absolutely adore him. They look forward to his visits and stays. The house is always better than when we left it, and the dogs are always happier than we left them. Lots of great photos and videos throughout his stay. We are fortunate to have found him and look forward to his next stay!”
“Ladonna was incredible in her communication and care for our Laszlo. She was sensitive to his needs, especially needing time to get used to someone new and even made him a snuggle ball to play with! When we got home he was happy to see us but still kept checking upstairs to see if she was still here. She took him on adventures with her and you can tell he made a true friend with her.”
“We’re so grateful to Mary for house sitting and taking care of our girls! She left our home just as she found it and made sure to send updates and photos. Both cats and the puppy were happy to see us back but were clearly loved on and well taken care of in our absence. We will absolutely call Mary again for future travels and pet care needs!”
“We’re so grateful to have found Journey! She stepped in last minute and was incredibly reliable, kind, and attentive to our two big labs' needs. It gave us real peace of mind knowing our pups were in such good hands. Highly recommend!”
“Trustworthy and sends lots of pictures. We have a dog that's a bit harder than most, takes a lot of medication and stuff, and Jade did great with him. I would definitely recommend!”
“Wesley was great to help me out on a holiday with last minute notice while we were in town on a trip away from home! He was great to work with …. Offered to do a meet and greet before when I needed him. My dog does not warm up to people easily, but he felt comfortable with Wesley right away. Wesley was also great with communication and keeping me updated on how things were going with photos and messages. Thanks so much, Wesley!”
“Sydney was absolutely great! She stayed with the pups for two nights and sent lots of pictures. She was eager to read all of my instructions and communicated well with any updates and questions. One of my pups has special requirements right now, due to a recent surgery, and Sydney was able to separate the needs of my dogs and treat them both so well! (separate walks, feeding attention etc) I am SO excited to make Sydney my regular pup sitter, and highly recommend her to any one looking for a fully attentive and communicative dog lover!”
About: Seniors, puppies, and special care boarders accepted. I can bathe, do nail trims, and clean ears. I can medicate, give fluids, and give injections. I have worked at a vet over 3 years and have some tech training. I can take pets to work with me on days I work. Daily walks for dogs. I take them potty as much as needed. Toy play for stimulation. I can stay at your house if needed. I have two senior dachshunds generally crated. My house is baby proofed mostly so cats/dogs don’t get into anything. I do not have a fenced in yard but will do walks on slip lead to ensure safety of dog. I can crate if I need to leave to the store or something. They can stay out if good without treats. I provide lots of pictures and videos. I do have a couple clients I can use for reference if needed.
“Carly watched our dog over the holidays and sent plenty of pictures while we were gone. The house was clean and our dog was happy and healthy when we came back. Definitely recommend!”
“Kelly is (hands down) the best sitter I’ve ever had. I went on a 10-day vacation and was worried about leaving my 14 yr old dog who has elbow dysplasia and walks very little. I got back and realized my dog was walking farther and more interactive with people and other dogs. I have a dog stroller and Kelly took her for long walks every evening! She sent me daily updates and photos. She came by a couple weeks before I left to meet me and my dog. Kelly was very organized, professional and personable. My dog immediately liked her. From that moment, I stopped worrying and started looking forward to my vacation. I highly recommend Kelly! So does my dog!”
“Shelby was wonderful and provided care above and beyond for my older dog and box turtle. She sent daily reports with updates to ease my mind while I was cruising on vacation. Additional feeding steps were needed to “entice” my dog to eat his food as he’s gotten pickier with age but Shelby handled it flawlessly all while leaving my house in a clean condition upon return. I would highly recommend Shelby for future house sitting jobs.”
“Huntter did a wonderful job keeping my dogs and house safe and loved. He was able to spend the night and my dogs loved him. My house was spotless when I arrived home after 8 days away. Thank you Huntter!”
“I was very happy with how Arooba did house sitting for me and took care of my dogs!! She is the best communicator and sends lots of photos!! The dogs seem very happy with her and I felt very comfortable being away from home with her watching my house/dogs!!”
“Incredible sitter- so sweet, kind, caring, communicative and left both our home and our pups in fantastic shape! 12/10 would recommend Lauren and will be using her again!”
