We have a kitty with health issues, and they were both so informed and followed his medication schedule to a T. We received twice daily updates, tons of pictures, not to mention they left our house spotlessly clean! You can tell that they truly love animals. We’ll definitely be repeat customers.”

“Shell was incredible. From start to finish, she thought of everything. She took exceptional care of Charlie, he was so relaxed and happy when I got home. I lost my older pup just recently, and Shell was so kind and considerate. It was the first time that Charlie had been home alone without Rick, and from every picture that Shell sent I could see just how well he was being taken care of. From long walks to cuddling in bed, Shell documented everything for me so I could relax and know that he was in excellent hands. I cannot possibly recommend Shell highly enough, except that selfishly I don't want to share her with anyone else!! 5 stars ?”

“Joann did a phenomenal job with or babies Stewie and Coco! Coco can be very barky and Joann was so patient with her. By the time I got back Coco was totally calm with Joann! Both of the dogs seemed very happy with her. Also, Joann went above and beyond and walked to the Pet store next door and got a toy for Coco. Coco truly liked the toy you could tell! I would highly recommend Joann to anybody looking for a kind and patient sitter for your babies!”

About: I've taken care of pets since the age of 8. Dog walking, feeding, treats, homecare. I've had a rabbit, three dogs, hamsters and two cats throughout my life. Im a stay at home mom who can work full time. My 9 yr old is also really good with pets. So day and night we are available. I can keep at my home or your home it's up to you. We currently don't have a big yard but we will soon. If they just need a walk I can help with that.

About: *access to affordable pet care is important to me! message me if pricing is a concern.* I am a cat mom and have taken care of our cat since she was 8 months. She was a stray from the shelter and needed lots of time and care to get used to her new home. I am very patient, warm, and accommodating to our little friends! I also have experience with long term house sitting and drop-in visits, and would love to be your go to sitter for whenever you need to be away. I value developing relationships with the cats and understanding their personality and needs, and I have lots of fun doing it! I’m available in the afternoons and weekends and will usually be around for holidays. Message me and I’ll see if I can work around your schedule! I'm happy to follow your advice and requests to keep your pet as safe and comfortable as possible. Their safety and well-being are my priority.

“Taylor helped us out after the first sitter canceled at the last minute. Then, she stayed at our apartment for 3 days while we had to go outta town. I was apprehensive about having someone at our place, but I wanted my dog to be comfortable while I was gone and Taylor was very flexible about the scheduling. I'd definitely trust her to stay at our apartment again. She even drove over the night before so I could give her a set of keys and a gate card. Scotty did pee on our carpet at least once while we were gone, probably twice, which is unusual for him. So, next time around I'll ask her to take him outside more often, and I'll also demonstrate how to soak up the pee from the carpet with some paper towels before applying any carpet cleaner. If she's watching your dog at your own home, you may want to do the same.”

About: I’ve taken care of all types of animals from tropical fish to horses since childhood. My expertise is with dogs - from whelping puppies to senior dog care. I’m currently working part time so I’ll have plenty of time on the weekends and weekday afternoons to devote to the care of your precious fur babies. I have a large backyard with exercise pens and I will either walk your dog on a leash or supervise him/her in the exercise pen.

“Michaela did drop in visits on one occasion and housesitting on another for our two dogs. She is a caring and knowledgeable animal care person. She handled all of our special requests to the letter, and left our home in perfect condition. She sent the perfect amount of photos which kept my mind at ease. She even handled a change in our plans with compassion and ease. I highly recommend her for any animal care needs you may have!”

“Samantha was great! We did a meet and greet a few days before the stay where we got to see her and the dogs interact, which made us feel so comfortable. Samantha stayed at our house for two nights and continuously provided updates and photos. We would definitely rebook!”
