About: I have been caring for animals since the age of 11! My neighbors, friends, and family have entrusted me with their dogs, cats, fish, hamsters, and even the occasional chickens. I treat your pets like family! I am a homemaker. I am able to devote all my time to caring for your pets. Your pet will always be able to rely on me. I live in a house in rural Litchfield. We have plenty of areas for all the walks! Also, a picture window so we can sit together and watch the outdoors.
“Otis has many special needs, and she cared for him like he was part of the family. Barbora went above and beyond, was very accommodating, and sent updates and pictures to keep me informed. It was such a relief knowing Otis was loved and so well cared for.”
“Stacie took great care of our dog while we were away! She was easy to communicate with and sent daily updates and pictures that helped ease my dog mama worry. Thank you so much, Stacie!”
“Ryan is my pups '#1 Go To' sitter on Rover! When she sees Ryan coming up the walkway, she knows she's in for a ton of fun & tails a wagging! He sends all kinds of pics & she always has that toothy boxer smile in them. I've also used Ryan's services for dog walking when I couldn't due to knee I jury. & Xena is happy to see him, every time. Will definitely book with him again.”
“It was so nice to find someone who lives close to us. Tara was so easy to work with. She loved our Ava and sent lots of updates and pictures throughout her stay. She even groomed Ava while she was there which helped us out greatly.”
“Grainne loved these sitters. She was well cared for. When I picked her up, they (tactfully) asked about her wheezing (I’d forgotten to tell them). I think that showed me their love of animals. I would definitely ask them to sit again. They also worked with me on pick up and drop off times. Nice people.”
“Our pup did great at Mandi’s! I didn’t have to worry at all because she sent pictures of his day and an update of what he did. She was so sweet to send him home with a personalized bandana and a jar of homemade treats! Definitely recommend!”
About: I have had pets literally my entire life. Dogs, cats, horses, and other small animals. I am patient, kind, loving, and know how to bond quickly with them. I truly enjoy the company of dogs especially and they always sense that and enjoy being with me as well. I have significant flexibility in my schedule. I can easily make the loving care of your pet my priority. I focus on Thursdays through Sunday/Monday for those quick weekend trips. I live in a small, senior park with lots of grass, a new, fenced dog park, and paved roads just in case your well-loved dog(s) may have grass or sand sensitivity. I have lots of time to devote to your dog. I can walk them, take them on golf cart rides, or give them time to play in the dog park.
