“Our cats love Giada and we love working with her. She’s very responsive which is very important to me especially we are out of the country. Looking forward to more checkins”
“Kayla did an amazing job taking care of our cat. She showed up as scheduled, and went above and beyond with his care. We got great feedback and lots of photos showing how happy he was. The house was always locked up and the alarm set when she left. I highly recommend Kayla🙂”
“Erica was great with our Lola! She was on time for the drop-ins, sent us many pictures and updates each visit. Lola was very comfortable with her and she really enjoyed her company.”
“Kati did an excellent job with our Labrador retriever!! She is very responsible and communicated with us at every visit!! My dog adores her. I will definitely hire her again.”
“Just wanted to say that we really appreciated the care and dependability that Brianna provided our dearest companion Chandru. We take him everywhere we go because we love him so much and he enjoys traveling with us. Though we were sad we couldn’t take him with us on our family vacation we were rest assured that he was in great hands. We opted for drop in visits and Brianna provided loads of timely updates, photos and awesome notes of what was going on. Our buddy and our house was in great shape when we got home! Thanks so much!”
About: I have had the pleasure and joy of being able to take care of lots of different animals for over 10 years. I spent some time on a farm where taking care of sheep, pigs, chicken, ducks, and the barn cats and dogs was a daily thing. Later on, I was the proud mama of a german shepherd named Bruno who stole my heart in every way. Unfortunately he is now gone since November of 2023. Since then, my lifestyle has changed and I am not able to have another dog of my own due to long working hours four days out of the week. However I love taking care of pets, especially dogs, and this is the perfect way to still have a connection with these wonderful creatures, even if they are not my own :) I promise to take care of yours as if it was my own! They will be royally treated with me! My Fridays through Sundays are free from other work and I would love to be able to take care of your pets, especially your dogs! I have a spacious home where your pet can feel free to roam and rest. I also have many trails I can take them on walks. There is also a spacious park area where we can play around if that's what your dog prefers! If I am coming to your home, I am more than happy to walk them short or long distances, play with them, or tend to any other pet needs!
“Cathy started caring for our black lab, Wendy, last week. She responded so quickly to my messages and was able to do a meet and greet within days of my first message to her! Our dog loves Cathy and it’s been going really well when Cathy comes to let her out at lunchtime. I would definitely recommend Cathy to care for your pet! She has a lab of her own and a lot of experience.”
“Jason went above and beyond caring for our 4 pets! He ensured our dog's special diet and medication was given at the right time, and we are so grateful to trust that our pets were in good hands. Will be booking him again in the near future!”
“Anna was amazing! My kitty had dental surgery recently and had some dietary restrictions. Anna was super accommodating and asked me if she had any questions. She went above and beyond what I asked her to do for my kitty. She also sends tons of pictures and a detailed report. Will definitely use her again!”
“Anthony did an excellent job. He was punctual and cared for my pet as expected. His report included photos, activities checklist, and general notes. I will definitely re-book him in the future.”
“Abby did a great job with our two cats! I really appreciated her quick responses to my texts and inquiries. She took care of everything that we asked - and she went beyond expectations by taking the initiative a few tasks that were not on the list! One of our cats is older with health issues and Abby was able to give Dierks his medication and special food. Abby updated us every day with a summary of the visit as well as amazing photos! Thanks so much Abby - we will see you again soon! Mary Lou, Dierks and Benny”
“Katerina was great with our cat. She arrived every day on time and always sent a picture! She was even able to give Tony his transdermal medication which can be a real pain. I would certainly book her again.”
“Jessica is caring, loving and attentive to our two cats. One of them has separation anxiety and Jessica helped him stay happy and healthy while I was out of town. 100% recommended!”
“Jen has been walking my dog twice a week since late February. Jen is dependable and treats my dog with care and compassion. Jen is also very flexible- she has jumped in for extra walks to support my changing schedule. She is quick to reply with updates. Thanks for all you do Jen!”
“Anna was just wonderful! She came for drop-in visits and looked after my dog and cat while we were gone for 8 days. I looked forward to seeing the photos of my sweet dog on his walks and I couldn’t believe my extremely shy cat made appearances for photos, too! We were relaxed on our vacation knowing our pets were well looked after. Thank you so very much, Anna!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was in my 20s. I’ve also taken care of senior dogs, so I know how to handle their special care. I’m very experienced in feeding and grooming, and I love the companionship it brings to a family! I am a stay at home mom, and my husband works from home, so there’s always someone there to watch and play with your fur baby! We always have lots of time for walking and playing throughout the day. I have an extremely safe neighborhood with a little park about a 3 minute walk away, two kids that love playing with dogs, (15 and 8) and an extremely friendly mini goldendoodle!
“Haven did drop in visits for us when we left for the hospital to have a baby. Penny was well cared for and happy as a clam when we returned, and Haven was super flexible with us as babies tend to come on their own timelines! Thanks so much Haven for your help!”
“I know my cat loves Aury's visits. I can see it in the pics I receive. Aury is very attentive to my cat, and she leaves the house tidy for me. 🙂🐈⬛”
“Brianna is great with Chelsea! She plays the whole time and sends lots of photos and notes. Can’t wait to have her back!”
About: I have had several dogs since I was born, and have been surrounded by dogs since I can remember! Feeding, taking out, playing, walking, you name it! I love all dogs and want to spread the love my helping dog owners who need it! I only work about 10 hours a week, making me available often! I want to spend my extra time doing what I love, spending time with dogs! I have a fenced yard, and 3 other dogs. 2 of which love to meet other dogs and play! With my dogs, I help to feed them, play with them, take them out, walk them, and more! I hope to do the same with other dogs who need someone to walk or play!
