“Amy was great! She came over before my requested time to meet yogi and get to know his quirks and personality. She was on time for all of his walks and communicated the entire time I was away.”

About: I know how hard it can be going away and leaving your fur babies so I want to make this a good experience for both you and your pets. I treat all animals as if they were my own kids. I'm a friendly and caring person who loves taking care of animals. I am reliable, outgoing, honest and trustworthy. I have 4 cats, Wicca who is a black cat, Tinkerbell who is a Tabby, Lucky who is also a tabby cat & Willow who is a Sphinx. All of them get along pretty well with dogs as they have been raised around them, however I always slowly introduce with new animals I board. I have been taking care of animals for about 14 years and have volunteered with the Humane Society. I took care of the cats and dogs there aswell as training the dogs basic commands. I have open availability and a veichle so I'm able to drive where I need to be. Your pets will have so much fun here, I also have plenty of toys for all dogs and cats if they love to play. I have also worked with special needs dogs or cats, those that are blind, old age, and who need to take medication. Please note that if a booking is canceled 7 days before start date there will be a half refund and if the booking is canceled or changed during the stay, there will be no refunds. When you book with me, I will let you know if I'm available or not, most of the time I am available unless I am fully booked. If I can't do it, I will let you know or we can work something out! I have flexibility and my partner Steven also helps take care of animals if need be. I have 3 cats, if your pets do not like cats, I will put mine in a separate room. If I am already boarding with another dog and you need boarding too and they do not get along. No worries! I can easily separate and crate when needed. If I am sitting at your home or checking in to let them out and for a walk, I will send picture updates and let you know I came by. If you have specific requests, please just let me know.


3. Shawn P.
“Shawn stayed with Ernie for two weeks. He was super professional; his communications were quick and on-point, and he showed up and did what he said he would do when he said he would do it. As a catsitter, Ernie bonded with Shawn right away and the boy moped around the house for a few days when I returned and Shawn left. On top of Shawn being a cool and really interesting guy to talk to, my apartment was spotless when I returned, and Shawn has a knack for taking some really good cat photos. I would use Shawn again in a heartbeat. I am sure that any pet owner would feel the same way.”


4. Damaris A.
“Damaris was by far one of the best sitters I have had. She was very attentive and understanding to both of my dogs needs. I received live updates and pictures. Making me feel much more reassured. I will definitely be booking with her from now on. She exceeded my expectations.”


5. Rachel W.
“I have known Rachel for 10 years now. She has always been responsable and accountable. She has a stellar work ethic and a good demeanor with animals.”


6. Sarah K.
“Sarah is an uncommonly empathetic and giving person, she did great with our Sammy. She assisted us with a canine medical emergency, she was cool and collected, helped keep things under control. Sarah is very attentive, and would switch her focus to Sammy immediately when needed. We are a bit of "helicopter parents" to Sammy due to his illness (advanced cancer), and knowing Sarah paid attention to every detail was extremely important to us. We felt safe to leave our furbaby in her loving hands and would welcome her again at any time in our home.”


7. Trish R.

“Trish was wonderful with Bailey! Bailey can be shy, but Trish was very patient and kind. She was willing to take all the time Bailey needed to feel comfortable. I will call on Trish again.”


8. Penny D.

“Penny is great! Reliable and very personable. You can tell she loves and cares for animals! She has been great with my Luna!”


9. Lashann S.
“LaShann has been a responsible dog owner for 5+ years. I have no doubt that she will show your fur baby the same love and care that she shows her own.”


10. Amanda A.
“If you want a pet sitter that loves your pet like they are her own, Amanda is the one for you. She has had extensive training in showing dogs, training them and loving them unconditionally. Amanda is a great friend, exceptional dog owner and you will have no worries when leaving your pet in her care. On a scale of 1-10, she is off the charts.”

About: Hi! I love dogs and know how important they are to their owners. I’m a responsible and caring person who enjoys spending time with them—taking them for walks, playing, and making sure they’re happy and well cared for. If you need someone trustworthy to look after or walk your pup, I’d love to help. Feel free to reach out!❤️🐶🐱 All my life I have had pets and I have taken care of them in the best I have trained them just as I am very fond of furry ones I care for pets with lots of attention, love, and responsibility, whether in my home or my client's home. I make sure they have fresh water, proper feeding schedules, and plenty of exercise and playtime. I also follow any specific instructions from the owner, such as administering medication or maintaining their routine. If I’m in the client’s home, I ensure their pet feels comfortable and safe in their familiar environment. My priority is always the well-being and happiness of the pets in my care.


12. Amber B.
“Amber has done an excellent job of taking care of my furry children. Fed on time. Plays with them, grooms them without asking and I never came home to P&P on the floors . Two of our girls watch her leave and cry. She is excellent with the furry children.”


13. Saige M.
About: I have cared for dogs since I was 7 years old, caring for my childhood dog, a Lab Boxer named Bailey. Now I have my own dog named Grizzly and a cat named Salem and they are family to me. Caring for dogs brings me so much happiness and I hope to make your pets just as happy! I am currently taking online college courses and working on my degree in social work, which means I am very flexible with scheduling and can work on my assignments remotely! I have plenty of free time to tend to your pet's needs like walking, feeding, plenty of playing, and always have my phone available to send updates whenever needed!


14. Jackie R.
“I have had Jackie watch my cats and dog quite a few times the past few years when I travel. She is so loving with my "furry kids". They are so well adjusted when I get home that sometimes I think they enjoy her pampering more than mine. I think she is equally as excited to care for them as they are to her. I highly recommend her. I am VERY picky about who takes care of my pets! She is wonderful.”

She will keep the animals in her care safe and protected. And always wants to please their owners. She has helped me with my cat Max and he loves her! She will do a great job for any pet owner and I highly recommend her services.”


18. Paris S.
About: I've have two dogs of my own, one is a blue heeler/ rottweiler named Tak and the other is a Vizla whos name is Haruko. Which means sunlight child in Japanese. He has the more golden glowing eyes! I also have been around dogs most of my life, my partners mom got us into volunteering at The Bully Project and we go and walk the dogs just because.My partners mom use to work there too. I also grew up with close to around 20-30 cats at once when I was a little girl, I was always so use to being surrounded by them in my yard and hanging out with them as much as I possibly could. Ive always been real sensitive to animals and their feelings, it's literally a sixth sense. I was currently managing and running my own professional wedding photography business but have slowed down drastically to focus on the little things. Im interested in dog/cat sitting and getting into learning how to grow a garden. Im wanting to take a huge break from social media and work more in the physical world. I also have two dogs of my own so its always been in my routine to care my my pets and take care of them. I have a huge open availability this whole year. I don't recommend having them stay at my own home just because of how high energy my Vizsla is. I do however recommend I come to your home to watch them. I promise to make sure your pets are comfortable with me there, make sure they go outside as frequently as needed to go to the bathroom, take medication, have cuddles, and watch for all the little things. Even keep the active on commands/tricks if they use any, that way they are consistently engaged. Im always outside the entire time with my dogs even though we have a fenced in yard because I want to make sure they don't dig under the fence and escape and that they are truly looked after in the best possible way.
