“Alexis was great with Nancy Moo and obviously cares deeply about animals. Communication was awesome as were the photos, everything was left tidy, and most important of all I cam home to a happy pup. I would not hesitate to book Alexis again - highly recommend!”
“McKenna is absolutely wonderful with my dog. She took great care of her, and I came home to a very relaxed pup. She treats your house respectfully. I got numerous pictures and updates....all appreciated! I would not hesitate to recommend her and will certainly book her again soon.”
“God/Goddess thank you for Katie & her hubby too. Quilly was so so happy in the pictures and when I came home. Incredibly trustworthy and friendly lady (neighborly too! ) to care for pup.”
“Liz met us at our campsite right on time and she immediately got along with our Catahoula, Annie. They were quick friends. Liz did a great job keeping her safe and entertained while me and my family attended a concert, and Annie was safe and relaxed when we got back to our site. Liz did great and I'll recommend her to anyone who needs help watching their fur baby for a few hours.”
“Caitlin was amazing! It was obvious that Ollie and Daisy loved her. She was very accommodating and took care of our pups with love and kindness. I would ask Caitlin to watch Ollie and Daisy again in a heartbeat! Thank you Caitlin!!”
“Keri is THE BEST!! Our dog is a bit shy around humans and it was honestly stunning how quickly they became friends. Not only was Keri extremely responsive when we were setting up this last minute booking, but she kept us updated regularly throughout our entire trip. It was clear that she showed him so much love, taking him on adventures and cuddling with him. We could tell Keri really understood his unique personality and she made our trip completely worry-free. When we got back, our house was even better off than it was before. If I could give 100 stars, I would!!”
About: Hello! My name is Skylar; I am 26 years old, my family has owned dogs my whole life, I own a dog and two cats! I currently work at a daytrain facility for dogs and am on my way to eventually becoming a dog trainer! I am relatively flexible as I work around my jobs schedule but I always provide the upmost care for animals. As a dog lover, I’m here to ensure that your family members stay happy and safe while you’re away! I currently work part time at a daytrain facility for dogs, typically in the afternoons - So I am available mostly in the mornings and evenings ( after 6 pm)! I am able to provide walks if needed (or if there is no fenced in yard), as well as special diets and medications as needed!
“Sally is extraordinary. Her care for our two senior cats in our home was again top notch, of the highest quality. Sally is kind, communicative, knowledgeable, reliable and thoughtful, thorough and more. Her deep love for animals shines through in every text and photo she sends daily! She cares for our home as if it was her own. Emily and Charlotte cannot wait to have Sally back again soon, and we feel feel the same. We ❤️ Sally!”
“You could not find more thoughtful and caring people to genuinely love your pet than Kelly and Nabil. They prioritized Elmer’s health and happiness to the highest degree and made sure we received videos and photos every day. We feel very lucky to have them in Elmer’s life.”
“Ashley and Bob were great with my 10 year old, nervous & quirky pup! They stayed at the house with her for 3 days and 3 nights and during that time, sent frequent updates and pictures. I was so grateful for their communication and care of my dog.”
“Bella is highly recommended. With a last minute change in my plans, Bella was right there to help out. There was never a doubt that Mac & Cheez weren’t being loved as she sent frequent updates and photos of my babies. I’m so grateful and will definitely reach out to her again.”
“Lucy was perfect for our high energy but attention loving dog. She was respectful of our home and had great communication. We will continue to use her when she is available.”
“Grace was an excellent cat sitter to our boys, Pax & Pickles, while we were on vacation for a week. She consistently provided updates on how they were doing, including photos and videos, and followed our directions for their care. She also went above and beyond to ask questions about how she could make the boys feel happier and more comfortable in our absence. She was able to give our one cat, Pax, his inhaler twice daily with no issues. Finally, she left our apartment very clean. I would rebook with Grace again and recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter for their fur babies 😊”
About: I have care and experience with dog`s for more than 20 years. From puppies to adult and elderly. From Chihuahuas to Great Danes. Training Puppies from indoors to out doors potty training and pee pads is a + ... I recommend my own pee pads for training purposes! I own only 1 dog presently. A Chihuahua, Blue Tic Hound breed. Weighing in at 5.8lbs. She is now 19 years young. Gets along great with cats & other dogs. I am retired, so no worries about time, just scheduling. First come first served, so to speak. I will not turn down a client or pet/animal owner unless the animal is a potential threat to my well being and health. I have experience administering medications to needed pets/animals and care of feeding, washing (shower/bath care) and walks. Play time is essential, especially for young to middle aged pets because of the energy they posses. There is nothing more happier than a tired dog to sleep happy dreams from exertive play time or a cat playing laser tag and cat and mouse games. : )
About: I've trained two dogs that I got when they were puppies. I currently have 1 dog and many chickens. I've watched dogs and cats in the past. I've also had cats, hamsters, fish, a rabbit, birds, guinea hens and chickens. I currently work from home most days. When I don't, I'm not gone for long. I prefer to be home if I'm pet sitting and that changes from time to time. My yard is fenced and blocked off on two sides. There is a field behind the house that's usually grass that's usually too tall for domestic animals to go into.
About: I'm very happy to be around pets. Have experience taking care of pets as I have had pets growing up I have been called to dog wisper because I have that connection with dogs. Your pet will be well cared for and loved in my care I'm open mornings and at night.i do food delivery and housekeeping part time.i can usually be available for whatever times you need just reach out and let me know I have a eye for detail and.very alert so your pet will be safe. What ever kind of pet sitting you need I can do
