We are so fortunate to have Teresa stay with Holly. Teresa stayed with Holly while there were some projects going on at our house, both handled the disruption very well thanks to Teresa!!

Taylor was amazing. I went away for the weekend and have literally never left my dog without anyone but family before. I was so nervous. But Taylor came over for a meet and great before and gave me complete confidence. I was able to enjoy my weekend without worrying about my dog or what was going on at home. She even got my pup out of the apartment when the fire alarm suddenly went off! So sad she is leaving the area after graduation or I would definitely book her again!

Matthew took good care of our very large, reactive dog while we were away. He sent us photos daily and was good at communicating if he had any questions. We will definitely be asking Matthew to watch our pup next time we go away.

Sabrina was fantastic. She was thankfully available for a last minute house sitting with Franklin. He's a rescue so it can be tricky getting him used to folks. She had no problem getting him out for walks and hanging out with him. Truly appreciative!

Brad did a fantastic job caring for our senior Greyhound in our home during an international trip. He was communicative, responsive, and asked questions when needed to ensure he was providing the best care for our girl. I’m very grateful that Brad’s professionalism allowed us to have a worry-free vacation! And a bonus- the house looks even better than when we left it.

We could not have had a better experience with Stephen watching our yellow lab, Odie, while we were away on vacation. From the moment we confirmed the reservation, Stephen was incredibly meticulous and thoughtful in his planning. He wanted to meet ahead of time to go over every detail, and we actually met twice before we left because he truly wanted to make sure everything was covered. That level of care and professionalism immediately put us at ease. While we were away, Stephen sent us updates and pictures every single morning. Not once did we feel anxious or worried about Odie being away from us because Stephen gave us complete reassurance the entire time. We always knew Odie was in great hands. Stephen is kind, gentle, professional, and clearly loves dogs. You can see it in the way he communicates with them and with their owners. He treated Odie with so much patience and care, and it meant the world to us to know our dog was being loved and cared for while we were gone. I truly could not recommend Stephen more highly. Whether you are considering having him stay in your home or boarding your dog with him, you absolutely cannot go wrong. Your dog will be loved, cared for, and treated like family, and you will love Stephen just as much as your dog does.

Meg was a great house-sitter and she took excellent care of my aging kitty. I really appreciate the care Meg took to make sure that he was brushed, fed, and watered. She even read him cat books! When I got home, it was if I had never left. He was very happy!

I have no words to describe how happy I am with Heather! Gracie is a large energetic puppy and seemed to take to Heather right away! Heather kept me updated on all the exercise Gracie got as well as all the snuggle time. Gracie was a happy puppy when I got home and my house was immaculate! I will absolutely be asking for Heather again!

About: What sets me apart is my variety of experience with pets at every stage of life. I have experience caring for cats as well as dogs, and I’m attentive to their comfort, routines, and any extra care they may need. I also currently care for rescue kittens, so I’m comfortable with young animals who need gentle handling, consistency, and extra supervision. Overall, I provide calm, reliable, and genuinely loving care, treating every pet as if they were my own. 🐾 I have 2 7 month old kittens so daily pet care is very important to me! I give them enrichment time, lots of love, and regular litter scooping and changes. I grew up with dogs, so walking, feeding, and caring for dogs is very important to me! I care for pets with a calm, attentive, and respectful approach, always following their usual routines to help them feel safe and comfortable. In your home i’ll help maintain consistency in their routines. I’ll keep their feeding on schedule, refresh water, provide whatever enrichment your pet needs, any medication administration, and clean up whatever mess they may get into!

Our house was spotless when we arrived home - we really appreciate the level of care she provided. We will absolutely be hoping to have her back when we travel in the future!

About: I have always had dogs growing up, and took a leading role in training/retraining both puppies and older rescues. My family fostered Boston Terriers through NEBTR, where I gained experience caring for older dogs, as well as dogs with a high level of medical needs (medications, physical therapy, etc.) I love furry friends of all shapes and sizes, but I cannot own one at this stage in my life due to a stipulation in my lease. I would love to be connected with some amazing animals, in and around the kennett area! Outdoor walks are one of my favorite hobbies, and I would love some company! I work in food service, so my hours are quite different from most! I am available most days after 2pm, into the evening. I do not have much morning availability, as I usually start my shifts around 6am. I am free all day Wednesdays. I enjoy walking in the green spaces of Kennett, away from traffic and heavily populated streets. I house sat for many family friends, and I always operate under the principle of leaving a space better than I found it!

Taylor was a fabulous sitter for our dog Frank! She was super flexible and willing to come meet him beforehand so that he could get familiar. He warmed right up to her immediately! She stayed overnight two nights with Frank and sent us updates and pictures throughout the weekend! We look forward to having her watch Frank again in the future!
