Dustin is very communicative, always supportive of our dog’s needs, and keeps us informed. We have one special-needs dog (insulin injections), and one very energetic two year old. Dustin found his groove with them both. We came home to two very well-loved dogs and couldn’t be happier.

Requested last minute house and dog sitting from Lance. He willingly agreed, took great care of my dog who currently requires medication twice a day, and left my home in perfect condition. Have already booked him again and will keep him in mind for all my future needs. Thank you Lance!

Alma is absolutely incredible! My two little chihuahuas are rescues, they are very protective of their home and me. Alma was amazing! She made them feel safe and loved and developed a bond very quickly. My cat couldn’t get enough of her. My fur babies are my life and Alma was the best! I never worried and they were so happy. She is such a great person and great with all animals! Hire Alma!!!

I can’t say enough good things about Jacob! He was kind and professional and gave my pup the best care I could have asked for. By far the most detailed and frequent reports of any caregiver I’ve worked with. The messages and photos kept me informed and confident my fur baby was in great hands. He administered fresh food and oral medicine with ease. Book with Jacob will not be disappointed!

My 200 pound mastiff was being as uncooperative as he could be when Christina was meeting his twice daily medical needs. She remained calm, patient and caring the entire time. I could not ask for more diligent and loving care for my dogs.

Elisa took on a last-minute housesitting booking and did such a great job! She was so loving with my pup and gave her lots of exercise. She sent lots of pictures and was very communicative overall, followed the instructions I left perfectly, and left the house very clean. I will absolutely plan on booking her again, including for drop-ins. Thank you Elisa!

Abreena is the best! I have a pretty odd schedule for my job, and after bringing home a puppy recently, I am definitely reliant on people to help take care of him when I can't. Abreena took such good care of Pudge, sent me regular updates, and was extremely accommodating to my weird schedule. I will definitely be booking with Abreena regularly!

About: I've been a pet owner and animal lover my whole life! I grew up with both cats and dogs, and have experience volunteering in animal shelters and watching friends' pets. I currently own both a dog and cat, and am happy to take care of both. I understand that pets are family and I'll treat them like my very own. My current job gives me very flexible work hours, and I can easily accommodate last-minute requests. I will provide a calm, reliable, caring experience for your pets. My current job provides me with a very flexible schedule during summer months. I can work most hours of the day (mornings, afternoons, evenings) and am more than happy to book any last-minute requests for sitting or walks. I have a car so I can easily drive to clients' homes for walks, check-ins or overnight stays. I have experience running my own small business, and I understand the importance of organization, communication and reliability with my clients. I love animals and getting to know them, and I will take care of your animals as if they're my own.

Lance was an amazing help with Indy. He has very clear communication from the start, is a true animal lover, and is a professional caregiver. I greatly appreciated the pictures, videos, and updates throughout his stay with Indy. Lance should be your first call if you are in need of a caring pet sitter who will go above and beyond.
