Stephanie and Scott took care of our dogs like they were their own. They had so much fun and were totally relaxed when we came home. We appreciated feeling totally trusting and at ease being away from our pups so much!

Chloe did a a fabulous job watching our little girl. She spent lots of time playing with her and gave her ample supervised outdoor time. She even left Cat TV on for our girl while she was away. Chloe sent us multiple updates with pictures and was always very responsive. We are also very appreciative with how much time Chloe was able to spend with our kitty while we were away, ensuring that she did not get lonely. We highly recommend Chloe and will be booking her in the future! :)

Andrew was excellent! It was our first time using a dog sitter in our home and I could not have been more at ease. We were away for an entire week and Andrew spent so much time with them doing all of the things they love. He took them to the beach every day and kept us informed with pictures and texts letting us know how much fun they were having. I highly recommend him!

About: I have had pets and cared for pets my entire life I have spent majority of my adult life in animal welfare such as vet clinics, rescues, boarding and daycare facilities. I have experience caring for animals of all ages and sizes such as cats, dogs, reptiles, rodents, birds, and some live stock. I also have experience with medications, behavioral issues, age and other restrictions. I currently in the off season of my job and I have a very flexible schedule at this moment in time. I can also take last minute bookings. Your pet will have any thing he or she will possibly desire with me. I’m an active person and love to go out for walks but also like a good snuggle on the couch.

About: Hi, I'm Meghan! a lifelong animal lover that you can count on. Caring for animals has always been a big part of my life. I've grown up with a variety of animals including: dogs (both big and small), cats (both outgoing and timid), as well as even the smallest of pets (like hamsters, bunnies, snakes, fish, and lizards) and I truly believe our pets are family. While most of my experience comes from caring for my own animals, I'm attentive, patient, and committed to following any and all instructions to keep your pet safe and happy while you're away. This includes any specific routines, medications, or favorite toys. I'll make sure everything runs smoothly just the way they like it. Whether you need someone to drop in, go for a walk, or provide overnight care, I'd love to help. I understand how much trust it takes to leave your pets with someone new and I promise to treat them like my own. I'm comfortable with all types of personalities and would welcome a meet-and-greet to learn more about your needs! I work part-time over the summer but I still have availability for early mornings, afternoons, evenings drop-ins/walks and overnights on most days depending on location. Your pets comfort and safety come first - especially in their own home. I take great care to follow any and all instructions closely so your pet can stick to their normal routine like feeding schedules, potty breaks, medications or playtime.

Tanya went out of her way to come to our house to babysit our Labrador puppy. She was patient and kind and took time to talk about our expectations while we were away from our baby puppy. Taking care of a puppy requires patience and tolerance and love for animals. We could tell Tanya had all of these. She sent pics and communicated with us while we were away. I would recommend Tanya. And we would use her again.

Heather is the only one I trust to watch my dogs! I have high drive, working line shepherds that can be a little overwhelming and dramatic and Heather has handled them with such confidence and patience. I am a very anxious dog mom but know my pups are in very good hands with her!

Meghan is one of the most patient, empathetic, and animal-loving people I know. She has looked after my pets with the kind of care and warmth that immediately puts both my animals and us at ease. Meghan treats every creature she takes care of as if it were her own, whether she's walking, pet-sitting, or just keeping them company. Her calm manner and genuine passion for animals make her someone that, whether its a shy dog or a high strung puppy, makes them feel safe and comfortable. I completely trust her and she's the type of person you'd want to look after your precious furry family.
