“Michelle was excellent at communicating, providing updates and overall very professional. She was very comfortable with Rudy and I could tell she was experienced, confident and responsible. Highly recommend!”
About: I have grown up caring for dogs since the age of 6! When my family got our first dog, I was immediately in love, and was always taking on the responsibility of caring for our dog because I loved her so much! As an adult, I have experience caring for dogs with my own Australian Cattle Dog/Border Collie. I also have experience working with reactive dogs :). If your dog stays with me, I will love them like they are my own! September-May, I work full time 8-4 Monday through Friday. I work in a school, so during the summer, I am very open and available to care for your pets, whether it’s with walks, check-ins, or house sitting or boarding :)! I take my dog on walks before and after work, which is something I can do for your dog as well! In the evenings, I can give your dog all the attention they deserve! On the weekends, we can spend extra time playing, cuddling, and everything in between! I truly strive to treat your pet like my own. Whether in my home or yours, I will make sure to follow your pet's routine as closely as possible. All pets are allowed on any furniture in my home. They are allowed any toys and treats that you would allow as well!
“We had such a great experience with Caitlin! She watched our two cats while we were out of town and did a fantastic job. She was responsible, reliable and clearly cared for our pets sending us photos of them daily. We came home to happy, well-cared for cats. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in good hands. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and kind pet-sitter!”
About: Ever since I was a child, I have dog and cat sat for family, friends, and neighbors. During college my friends with pets always knew they could trust me to watch them!😊 My family got our first dog when I was in the 4th grade. I was his primary care taker: making sure to feed him, give him water, let him out, and take him on walks. I have three pets of my own who I love dearly; two cats Cheddar and Brie, and a rabbit named Bunny❤️ I have summers off so I am available to check on or walk animals during the week days! I can also do pet sitting and check ins or walks on the weekends according to my availability!😊 When working with your animal(s) I will follow any instructions given to make sure that your pets are safe and comfortable. When I am with them they will have all of my care and attention.

“I highly recommend Julia as a responsible and compassionate pet caregiver.

Her several years of experience as a veterinary technician have only deepened her skills, as she’s worked with a wide range of animals from cats and dogs to horses and even bison. Julia’s calm, attentive nature and deep love for animals make her someone you can truly trust with your pets.”
