About: I've been taking care of dogs and cats alike as long as I can remember. My family, neighbors, and friends trust their fur babies with me because I treat them like they are my own. I am a stay at home wife, so my day is completely free to look after your fur babies. I have all the time needed to provide a safe and happy stay. I have a fenced yard and two of my own fur babies to keep your baby happy and entertained. The babies are allowed on the furniture and in my bed if they need it.
“Matt was fantastic! Provided great updates, was available throughout the whole stay when I reached out, and took the best care of the pups. He respected my home and is an all around considerate sitter. I would use him again for sure!”

About: I have a great experience in senior dog care which may include more guidance, patience and frequent potty breaks. I also just had two puppies of my own who are 6 months old and have experience in handling them. I work a close by day job and have the flexibility to do 3-4 drop ins daily, and multiple visits if needed. I have the flexibility to stay overnight as well. Frequent potty breaks/walks are so important and also providing play is just as important. I would care for your pet like my own in regards to playing,walking,cuddling, meal time, and more.

About: My name is Ronda. I have been pet sitting for friends and family for years. I have also been a foster for a rescue group for years. Your animal will be taken care of and loved as if they were my own. I do not currently have any pets. I recently lost my 2 senior dogs. I have a large home and fenced in back yard. I also have a doggie door if that is something your dog is used to (if not, it will be closed up). They will have free roam of the house when I am gone or can be crated if that is what they prefer. I will take them for daily walks or hang with then on the couch. Meds, special diets, or any special needs will be addressed. I'll text updates and sends pictures. Whatever you and your furbaby want, I will accommodate. I accept dogs of any size.

“Luna helped us out in a tight situation! We needed a pet sitter at the last minute and she pulled through for us. She was willing to come without meeting our pets before the weekend she came to sit. Luna was responsible and I felt our pets were safe with her. I would definitely ask her to come again.”

“Valerie is the sweetest! She is so knowledgeable about animals and their needs. She bonded with our puppy Charlie instantly. She came to the house and watched Charlie for 5 hours and was so attentive to her. They went for a walk, played ball and snuggled on the couch together. I highly recommend Valerie as a Fur Nanny! She’s the best!!”
