Barbara was so friendly and amazing. She was so attentive with Sammy, and she gave really nice updates that made me feel better while away from my cat! Will definitely be using her again!

aww! Thank you for stopping by at the last minute. It was a huge relief to know my babies were all taken care of! Austin is the cat’s name. He’s a goof ball and loves it while we get him a Lion Hair cut ? Hope we can have you by another time.

This was my first time leaving my dog home while going on vacation. I was nervous because he's 16 years old and I've never used a dog sitter before. But Guadalupe was great. She was very sweet with my dog, Motley, during the meet & greet. I could tell he was comfortable with her. She walked me through how to use the Rover app and was very accommodating, pleasant, and flexible with the holiday. She communicated well and I appreciated the text and photo updates. The house was exactly as I left it when I got back and I could tell my little guy was well cared for. Thank you, Guadalupe!

About: I love caring for all types of dogs. I have experience with large, medium and small, dog sitting for family, friends and neighbors. I enjoy walking, playing, and spending quality time with each dog while being attentive to their daily routines. I create a calm, positive experience and ensure every dog receives the activity, structure, and companionship they need. I am semi-retired and have a flexible schedule, having the ability to work around your pet's weekday and/or weekend schedule. I can simply drop in for feedings, or stay and play. I have experience administering medicine as well. I provide care in your home so your pet can stay comfortable in their familiar environment and routine. I carefully follow all instructions for feeding, medications, and daily care, and I pay close attention to behavior and well-being. I keep your home secure during each visit and always ensure doors, gates, and entry points are safely closed. My goal is to give you peace of mind and your pet a calm, safe experience while you’re away.

Gwendolyn did a wonderful job caring for Chevy. They went for a walk and had some cuddle time on the couch. I feel totally comfortable leaving Chevy with her!

Sara is wonderful! We have 3 dogs and 2 of them are puppies. Sara came over for a meet and greet with the girls and they bonded with her right away. She was so sweet to them and got right on the ground to have them check her out and let them know she was there for them. Sara comes daily and her willingness to be flexible if we need additional visits is above and beyond. We highly recommend Sara and would have no problem with her taking care of our dogs while we are out of town as well. Very trustworthy. Thanks Sara for coming into our lives and taking care of our fur babies!

Sam is an amazing pet sitter! One of my two cats is shy but started warming up to Sam in just one visit. Sam played with them, took time to learn their little quirks and gave them individual attention. I got pictures and updates after every visit. I will certainly hire her again and again. Thank you, Sam!

Brianna took amazing care of my 3 kitties. They absolutely loved her. Her communication was excellent and my cats barely noticed I was even gone. She did the cutest arts and crafts projects with them, brushed them, took out the trash and left my place spotless (other than the amazing arts and crafts I came home to.) All of my instructions were followed perfectly, she never left any trash behind, and brought so many treats and toys for the kitties! She came to meet the kitties ahead of time and bonded with them so fast. I would trust Brianna with my cats in a heartbeat and I don’t even trust my parents with them.

I booked Sabrina at the last minute and she took great care of Bella. This was my first time having someone come to my home to do drop-in visits as Bella normally does boarding with her usual sitter so, I was very apprehensive about it. Sabrina was very consistent with giving updates and taking Bella on walks. I recommend booking her.

Ayla was a great sitter for my dog and senior cat for a long weekend. She came for an interview before the booking where she was pleasant to talk to and my dog warmed up to her a bit. During the booking, she took great care of our babies. Her communication was excellent. Will definitely book again.
