Wendy does such an awesome job watching our two pups. They both have different personalities and she does great with both. She gives us such peace of mind that they are in good hands. Makes times away more enjoyable. She is great at communicating.

Kat was amazing!! It was our first time leaving our dog, so we were nervous about how it would go. Those fears very quickly flew away, because Kat went above and beyond in so many ways!! We highly recommend her to care for your fur babies. We will definitely use her again!

I couldn't be happier with Anna and the care she provided for my dog. My dog is 9 years old and also has some special needs (on anxiety meds), and I felt so at ease knowing that Anna was looking after her. She communicated proactively and sent me pictures and updates while I was away. I'm glad I already have her booked for my next out-of-town trip!

About: Animals have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember. Growing up with both cats and dogs helped foster a lifelong love and appreciation for animals and their unique personalities. Today, our family shares our home with three dogs, so caring for animals is simply a natural part of my daily life. I understand that pets are family, and I treat every animal in my care with the same kindness, patience, and attention I would want for my own. Whether your pet enjoys playtime, walks, cuddles, or simply having a calm and dependable companion while you’re away, I am committed to making them feel safe, comfortable, and loved. I currently have full-time availability and a flexible schedule, which allows me to provide dependable care throughout the day, evenings, weekends, and holidays as needed. Because I have the flexibility to accommodate a variety of schedules, I can offer consistent attention, exercise, companionship, and care for your pets. Whether you need regular visits, or last-minute assistance, I strive to be responsive and available to meet your pet care needs. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on maintaining their normal routine so they feel comfortable and secure while their family is away. During drop-in visits, I provide fresh water, meals if needed, potty breaks, playtime, companionship, and plenty of affection. I can also administer basic medications according to instructions and keep pet parents updated with photos and messages. For dog walks, I prioritize safety, exercise, and enrichment. I tailor each walk to the dog’s age, energy level, and needs, whether that’s a leisurely stroll, extra exercise, or time to sniff and explore. I always use secure leashes and follow any specific instructions provided by the owner. For house sitting services, I provide overnight care in your home and maintain your pet's normal routine. I may leave throughout the day for work, errands, family time, etc but I always ensure your pet receives the care, attention, potty break, meals, exercise, and all the snuggles they need. If your pet requires a more constant-care schedule, please discuss those needs before booking. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to know your pets are in caring and reliable hands. My goal is to ensure your pets are happy, safe, and well cared for while you’re away.

Deborah is outstanding! She took great care of our puppy, sent pictures several times a day. My wife loved that. We totally felt good leaving our baby with her. Deborah allowed us to have a relaxing trip without worry. Max bonded with her from the beginning and I think was sad when Deborah left. I would recommend her totally.

About: I am a certified pet groomer with 7 years of experience, and many many more years of experience in caring for animals. I also have pet cpr and first aid training and have worked in veterinary, boarding and daycare settings while in my grooming career. I also would like to add that I am comfortable with a variety of different animals also. I have ample experience with dogs and cats but am also comfortable with rabbits, ferrets, reptiles, rats, and even things such as hedgehogs. I put alot of time, research and care into every animal I am responsible for and am always willing to learn more. I hope you find me fit for the job! I am available evenings and weekends to come to your home and care for your pets. I do have a 7 year old daughter who I have 50/50 custody of with her dad, so some weeks I have more availability than others. When I come to your home I will make sure to do all the things they are used to doing with you! The more info you can give me of what they enjoy or need the better I can give them the care they deserve.

This was our second time having Jonah as an in-home pet sitter. We were able to rest easy, because we know Jonah to be completely reliable, trustworthy, and kind. He gave our dog the individualized attention and interaction he craves. Our dog was happy to have us back, but also sad to see Jonah leave—he thinks Jonah should become a regular member of an even bigger pack!

Beth was very communicative and worked with our older dogs to accommodate both of their needs (our little one doesn’t love walks but the big one loves and needs them.) During the meet and greet, she noted even little things, like where the dog beds are/where they like to sleep. I definitely plan to ask Beth back.

What can I say ... we've had very good petsitters before. This is the first time we've had a FABULOUS petsitter! Just WOW! SOOO good with the animals. Outstanding communication. Took excellent care of the house. Great check-ins every day. 5 stars. A+. 10 out of 10. It was wonderful to go away without a care in the world knowing our furry ones were in great hands!

We love when Kensey sits for us! 🐶 she is so patient and sweet with our dogs, who can be quite the handful. She updates us regularly, takes photos, and has left sweet little goody bags for the dogs when we leave. She always goes above and beyond and has a regular customer from us!

Abby was incredibly attentive to my cat and sent frequent updates while I was away, and even took the time to ask several questions in our initial meeting to ensure all important details were communicated. My cat is VERY shy around people and yet by the end of my trip, Abby gained her affection - which speaks to how dedicated they were to genuinely caring for my cat. Definitely would recommend Abby a sitter for those that wants their pet to be taken care of like family :)

About: I have taught my dog multiple tricks and continue working on separation anxiety and reactivity. Since getting my dog I have learned a great deal about dog food, behavior, and training. I've always had love for animals, and have had a dog in the house since I was 4 years old ranging from small dogs too big dogs. Growing up I would binge animal planet and had hopes of being a veterinarian. Now as an adult, I have had Midas for 3 years. I treat every new dog I meet with respect, and of course love. I've learned to be able to adapt my energy and interactions with different dogs depending on their personality. I would love the opportunity to be of service to you and your lovely fur-baby! I will be un-employed from my seasonal lawn and landscaping job starting December 12th. I will be returning to that job sometime April 1st. I also plan on starting an odd jobs side hustle during the winter months. So if i become too busy from odd jobs I will adjust my availability accordingly and stay available for constant communication to ensure no scheduling conflicts. Christmas and new years (December 22nd- January 2) will be limited availability. February 14-21 i will be on a trip to Arizona. I take my dog for a jog every morning, at least one walk, to our little dog park at the apartment two times per day, and the big dog park a couple of times per week. We go on adventures together and explore different walking paths and nature trails. We feed him once a day and ensure he does a series of tricks and waits for the "ok" command before he can eat. We feed him a three way mix of fresh pet, Dr. Harveys, Meats, and Kibble. I intend to provide a healthy and fulfilled life full of play and love for my dog, and I will treat your dog the same.
