Alexis was great! She was thoughtful and timely. On top of that, we have a shy, skittish kitty, and Alexis gave her space and respected her boundaries.

Andrielle did an amazing job taking care of Cleo, as well as bringing in mail & deliveries & watering plants! Cleo was happy when I got home which says a lot about being taken care of by someone new. I highly recommend Andrielle!

Our fur babies immediately embraced Allison, even our very timid one. Allison demonstrates confidence, comfort, and care when interacting with our two Bengals. So glad we found her the day before our trip. We will be planning future bookings.

About: I’ve been an animal lover and pet owner my entire life! I’ve cared for a wide variety of animals, including chickens, goats, cats, and dogs, and I genuinely enjoy getting to know each pet’s unique personality. I also had the rewarding experience of raising a guide dog, which taught me responsibility, patience, and how to work with dogs in training. I’m comfortable administering medications to both dogs and cats and am committed to providing attentive, reliable care so your pets feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I’m currently home from college for the summer so I am available all day for stays and visits. I have a car so I am able to get to your pet whenever you need! I am a very interactive and engaged pet sitter who believes pets are more than just animals, they’re cherished members of the family. As a pet owner myself, I understand how important it is to know your pet is receiving the same love, attention, and care that they get from you. I tailor my care to each pet’s personality and needs, whether that means playing fetch, going on walks, grooming, providing enrichment and playtime, or simply keeping them company and giving them plenty of affection. My goal is to make sure your pet feels comfortable, happy, and loved while you’re away, and to give you peace of mind knowing they’re in caring and capable hands.

Rachael was punctual, great with communication, and took cute photos of our boys. She seems to have a lot of experience and wasn't intimidated by our younger dog that can be a handful. We look forward to having her come again!

About: I have always had at least one dog in my life, so not only does my love for dogs run deeply but so does my knowledge of care. I want to make sure your pet is comfortable, fed, watered, and has gotten time to be outside to play and go to the bathroom. In addition, I have taken care of other peoples' animals throughout my life. As of right now, my weeks are open to taking care of your pets in whatever way they may need. This is my top priority. When taking care of your pet I make sure they always have water and food, have time for potty breaks, and are comfortable. I also always give them plenty of attention, cuddles, and love. If there are any special instructions, I also make sure to give the specific care your pet needs.

Vicki was amazing taking care of my two elder guinea pigs while I went out of town. Unfortunately, one of my guinea pigs fell ill right before I left and was left with six various medications. Vicki was great at following instructions, asking questions, and letting me know about any behavioral changes. I was definitely thrown a lot of curveballs, and Vicki handled them like a champ. I would definitely recommend!

About: I’m attentive and patient with your fur babies. I will spoil them rotten with grooming, loving kindness, plenty of walks, and meals (medication) on time. I’m currently working part time so I have plenty of time for your babies. I’m also available for weekends and odd hours if you work at night… I will care for your pets and follow your directions if they have medications or a need for an extra long walk around the neighborhood.

Brandi was incredible! When we first met, I told her how shy and uncomfortable Fiona could be around strangers; Brandi was very patient with her and took time to sit and play with her - Fiona warmed right up! I've never seen that before. Very grateful for awesome communication and for Brandy's general wonderfulness - thank you so much taking care of my shy sweetheart while we were away!

About: We adore animals of all kinds. We have hardwood floors for accidents, and filtered water. We have a fenced yard for running around with our kids and potty, always allow indoor access, and we don’t leave your pet alone. James has volunteered at the Dog Shelter for years, has CPR/Rescue training(for humans) and an understanding of CPR and first aid for dogs. After many years of dog sitting, we've welcomed a variety of different dogs (around 50+ at last count) into our home. We have administered eye creams, injections, and many other medicines. We don't clip nails. we are happy to send pictures and videos and even facetime or video chat by request. James works from home, and we typically go for two walks a day so we are always happy to have a guest pet with us. We have thoughtfully organized our home to avoid dangerous substances, escape issues, and to ensure maximum joy and safety! We would love to give you a tour during a meet and greet.

Thank you for stepping in while away! Megan supported my 2 pups during a very hot several days and in between my AC unit not working in my home! She ensured both dogs are well taken care of and stayed cool during the heat. Which was my #1 concern! My dogs love the care she provides and I would be happy to recommend her to anyone!

Amanda was a great pet sitter for our cat! She was there on time and stayed for the full duration of each booking. We loved the different updates and pictures she sent with each visit, she was there to spend time with him. We could tell our cat warmed up to her quickly and enjoyed her company, which put us at ease during vacation. Will definitely be booking her again.
