“Olivia was a great overnight caregiver to Einstein while we were out of town for a weekend. She communicated well via text and provided daily photos. She was very respectful of the instructions that were provided and asked a couple of questions to validate. Einstein said he’d like her to stay over again soon, which I have already let her know potential dates.”


“Michelle was polite, courteous and professional. Overall, she did the best she could with my youngest rescue being timid to the point of going inside the house for the three days I was travelling. Not her fault and I would like to continue for future trips in hopes of her acclimating to my shy, timid boy.”

“Abigail was an amazing dog sitter for our little rescue dog. He can be a tricky one with lots of separation anxiety, but Abigail was such a great support and comfort to him. She was very communicative and tried everything she could to make sure he was happy and healthy. She went above and beyond and we are so thankful to have had her as our sitter!”

He updated us with pictures of our puppy during his stay. When we arrived home all was good. He even wash her doggy bowls. And during one of our communications, he was thoughtful to ask if I wanted him to make the bed, or strip the sheets in the bedroom he was staying in. I hired Jack in a heartbeat again.”

“Ewa is such a great sitter. She just loves dogs (cats too but I only have a dog). It might be hard to trust someone new to come into your house when you're not home to take care of your fur baby, but Ewa gives me such a good feeling, I don't worry at all about the house or my Maizy.”


About: Had cats all my life and dogs for last 12 years. Animals have a sixth sense about people and I'm one of those they seek out for rubs, cuddles, playtime, snacks and love...

Once I'm working full time again I will be available evenings closer to home and all times on the weekends. I'm also available for overnights at your location and can leave for work from anywhere. I will only be able to care for pets at your home as we currently have 2 cats (one who is very persnickedy) and a senior dog rescue who is going blind and is afraid of everyone.
