Christine was great watching our dog, Ozzy! Ozzy can have stranger danger and Christine did a great job managing this. He was so well taken care of and so was our apartment. I highly recommend Christine.

Amazing care! We got so many pictures and a few videos throughout the 11 days and Hero was well taken care of. He has a habit of eating things he shouldn't and there was only one minor incident that we were told of right away (and thankfully hasn't caused any issues). We're looking forward to booking them again!

We are SO happy with Jennifer’s diligent, patient, & loving care of our little girl — we feel we hit the jackpot finding her! After the sudden passing of our two beloved dogs last year, we were anxious & apprehensive about leaving our recently adopted (also anxious) dog for the first time on a trip. Jennifer alleviated all anxieties, was wonderful about checking in and asking questions, respectful of our home, went above and beyond. Plus our hard-to-crack little egg absolutely loves her! Many many thanks to Jennifer; we feel confident leaving our little girl in the safety of her care.

About: I’ve had dogs since I can remember. When I was 11 I had my own dog that I took care of and eventually once I was able to drive I payed and did everything for her (she was my age). I’ve taken care of family members dogs as well. I’m currently working at a doggy boarding and daycare facility. My job is to make sure the dogs are safe, happy and healthy. We take them out to the yard and bring them in for playtime. We learn dog body language and how to deal with their body language. I currently do not have my own dog but I do work at a boarding daycare facility. If you dog needs to be crated I can easily get them in there. The facility has very high fences for when the dogs go outside. Some dogs we do have to keep on a leash outside so they do not run away. I also play with the dogs and give them lots of love. The same can be done in a clients home as well. I will do whatever is needed for the dog I am watching.

About: I grew up on a farm and have experience caring for animals of all sizes, breeds, and temperaments. I’m comfortable working with high-energy pets, shy animals, seniors, and those with special needs who require extra patience and attention. I understand that every animal has a different personality and routine, and I always strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and happy. Whether your pet needs calm, dependable care or lots of playtime and activity, I’m happy to provide a fun, loving, and attentive experience. I work three days a week and have four days completely off, which gives me plenty of flexibility and time to dedicate to pet care. On my days off, I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and lots of playtime and attention. I enjoy staying active and spending time with animals, especially high-energy pets who need extra exercise and engagement. I’m also comfortable maintaining routines and giving pets the patience and consistency they need to feel comfortable and cared for. I provide a calm, safe, and attentive environment where pets can feel comfortable and secure. Growing up on a farm taught me how to read animal behavior, handle different temperaments, and stay patient in new situations. I’m comfortable caring for energetic pets, seniors, and animals with special needs. I always follow feeding schedules, medication instructions, and owner preferences closely. In a client’s home, I prioritize cleanliness, supervision, safety, and making sure each pet feels loved and stress-free.

About: I have been a veterinary technician for the last 19 years. I have spent the majority of that time working at a small animal practice, but also worked at an emergency and specialty practice for 4 years during that time as well. During my career, I have dealt with numerous c-sections, geriatric, diabetic, and renal patients. Meaning that, injections, SQ fluid, oral meds, etc, are not a problem.. I have also done pet sitting on the side for many years during this time as well. I have always had a love for animals. I currently own a 9 year old mixed breed dog, as well as a cat, and chinchilla. I have had many pocket pets over the years as well. I currently work full time, overnights only, on the front end of the week. I plan accordingly, to make sure the pets needs are met before and after work shift, and spoil them extra on the days I’m off. I adjust to whatever needs the pet requires, and make our schedules work in sync so that there are no issues with bathroom breaks, or feeding/medications.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs a good portion of my life! Love pets altogether. I can understand that all pets have different needs and quirks! I’m currently babysitting Monday’s through Friday’s but a limited amount of hours daily. It isn’t anything that would interfere with pet care needs I’d need to accomplish elsewhere. As far as overnight stays my hours wouldn’t cut in but I’d leave at some point in the day for babysitting for a couple hours. For day to day drop in’s or walks I could communicate my availability and come to an agreement accordingly with owners. My hours in babysitting wouldn’t prevent me from meeting any needs because aside from babysitting I have a lot of time available in the day. I personally don’t take boarding clients but I’m very respectful in other peoples homes. Whatever boundaries and request’s set I will honor them. I’m there to help with a service needed and get paid and hopefully get some pet cuddles in lol. I’ve worked in many different homes with different dynamics and I’ve always gotten back that I’m very pleasant and helpful, that’s huge especially when it comes to childcare. Let alone pet care. I would never take advantage or overstep it’s not in my moral compass to disrespect another persons space.

Rebecca was absolutely fantastic with our fur babies! We have a cat and an older dog with digestive issues that requires specific care. Usually, we travel with our pets, but unfortunately, this time, we couldn’t. I’m a nervous wreck when I leave them with anyone else because of past experiences and illnesses that have occurred in my absence. Before booking, Rebecca was completely transparent about any prior commitments that might take her away from our home for a few hours. She wanted to ensure that this would still be a good fit for our dog’s well-being. I really appreciated that Rebecca was incredibly kind and attuned to the needs of our animals. She handled them with the utmost patience and understanding. I believe her to be incredibly trustworthy, and both our dog and cat absolutely adored her. I received countless photos, videos, and updates of our dog doing her happy dance, taking naps, and snuggling up on the couch with Rebecca. One day our dog had an upset stomach which is always a cause for concern with her chronic health issues, and Rebecca went above and beyond to ensure that she did everything possible to care for her properly. She kept me fully in the loop and even offered to cook rice and broth for her in case she needed to settle her stomach. I mentioned that sweet potato usually helps her eat again if needed, and Rebecca offered to drive and pick one up so that she could ensure it was a good quality for my dog, rather than me having one delivered to the house: Thankfully my dog finally decided to eat her food and got better in the evening but like I said, she went above and beyond. I would/will hire Rebecca again and entrust her with our fur babies without hesitation. She was simply phenomenal and is a pet owner’s dream come true. Rebecca, Thank you so much for taking such excellent care of our fur babies!

Trista came and helped out with a last minute request to watch my 3 Pom’s (including one with pretty bad separation anxiety 😬) while I was at a wedding. She was very responsive, on time, and flexible! If I’m ever in the area, I will definitely reach out again if I need a sitter! 😊

Hilal was so great with our dogs. They loved her and we can’t wait to book again! She was patient with out more reactive dog and by the time we got home, they were best friends. She clearly knows how to handle dogs that are super friendly and those that need a little more convincing to settle down. We’re so glad she could accept our booking last minute.
