I've known Bill and his wife for 3 years. Bill has worked for me for many years taking excellent care of my dogs. Bill came and sat my dog for a week and half. Bill spends amazing quality time of great walks, play time and making sure my dog is comfortable, happy and settled. I trust Bill completely in taking excellent care of my dog , and the house when he sits. I'll be using Bill's dog walking and sitting services in the future.

Eko and Sarah are so nice to work with: prompt, responsive, friendly. They did a great job taking care of my two cats, making sure they met their different dietary and supplement needs. They even got friendly with my shyer boy, who tends to hide when new people are around. I couldn't be happier.

About: Hello and thank you for visiting my profile! You clicked on THE absolute best pet-sitter you will ever find. My name is Amy, and I LOVE ANIMALS. I've had pets since childhood; dogs, cats, gerbils, hamsters, lizards, bunnies, fish, ferrets, and turtles. Most of my pets are rescued. I'm a great dog walker- I will take your dog for a lengthy walk, (or a slow stroll for my older clients) and I will provide him/her with attention, love, and affection. According to their needs, I can sit with your pet to offer comfort and companionship, or romp around on the floor or in the yard for exercise and stimulation. My visits can be tailored to your requests. I'm reliable, trustworthy, and committed. Your pet's health and safety come first. I will take pictures during my visits (or videos, if you'd like) so you know your pet is being cared for. If you have a cat, I will bring toys for stimulating activity, or simply sit with him/her and offer a comforting presence. I also care for gerbils, hamsters, bunnies, birds, and turtles. If you have fish, I will feed them, and give them attention. (Yes, I connect with fish.) I understand animals. I relate to them. I'm intuitive to their needs. And of course, I have great references. There is no better pet-sitter on the planet than me. I look forward to meeting you and your precious family member! I'm currently available on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays. I can be flexible in the morning, afternoon, or early evening hours. If you need more than one visit per day, that can be arranged as well. I will show up with great energy, a calming presence, and toys to play with (according to your pet's needs.) I'm not like other pet sitters- I really spend TIME with your pets. I'm intuitive and understand their needs. For younger pets, I offer lots of play and exercise- stimulation is important! I'm physically fit and would be happy to walk your dog if requested. After the walk, I will sit with him/her and offer my affection and attention. I will refresh their water bowl, feed them, (if requested) offer a treat, (if requested) brush them, play with them, or simply sit with them and be a calming presence in their day. It all depends on your pet's needs. I cater to their behavior and energy. If you have other pets in your home (gerbils, fish, turtles, bunnies, birds, etc) I would consider caring for them during your vacations. All to be discussed and negotiated, of course. As you can see from my profile, I'm very accommodating and flexible, and I offer a wide range of services. For overnight visits, my rate reflects a time frame from 8pm-7am. If you need me to do day visits as well, please explain in the messaging section when you contact me.

Will was absolutely amazing with my cat Monkey. He checked in each day and took pictures to send me. My cat felt very comfortable with Will. I could tell monkey enjoyed his company so much that I’ve already booked Will for another appt in a few weeks. Thanks Will!

About: I had a 13 year old Labrador Retriever and take care of our 16 year old mutt and 16 year old Angora cat. I've had my pet sitting business almost 3 years and want all my clients's pets to feel like their owners never left the house. My wife works but I'm available to take care of your pets and make sure I'm able to pick up my kids on time at 3 pm. I do in client home pet sitting. I can obtain your house key, your garage code or any secure means you're comfortable with to take care of your pets safely and timely.

Erica was so wonderful with our needy kitty. She gave her lots of attention during her drop-in visits. Our cat wasn’t the normal basket case when we arrived home after a long weekend away. Highly recommend Erica for drop-in cat sitting needs.

Liz was excellent. I was Away for the holidays for 6 days. Liz always showed up and communicated clear and well while taking care of my two cats. She did an excellent job with the feedings and keeping the cats area/litter box spotless. I couldnt Have asked for a better cat sitter/ in home visits. She even did this during Christmas Eve and Christmas, I can’t thank her enough. Highly recommended

Jackie is just awesome. She is reliable, very friendly, and has the patience to let my shy little nipper warm up to her slowly. Her flexibility is just what we needed, too. She takes her work seriously, and is clearly interested in learning as much as she can about how our doggies think and feel. We feel very lucky to have found Jackie!

About: Being a dog owner for 15 years, I know how hard it is to find good care for your pet when you are away. I am happy to fill that void. I'm available to watch your dogs or cats in your home for one day/night or an extended period of time. I am dependable and clean. I will treat your pet as if they were my own. Walking, playing, feeding, giving oral medications. I can also transport your dog(s) to a dog park if there is one near your home.
