Luie took SUCH great care of our 3 doggies! He sent a TON of pictures, which we greatly appreciated, and took care of our house as well! The dogs were excited to see us, but I think they were sad to see Luie go! We will definitely reach out to Luie in the future when we need exceptional care of our pets!

I can not recommend Liz more highly. Folly has some emotional issues but took to Liz immediately. We received 4-6 pictures every day and it was obvious that the kids were very happy. Liz not only met our expectations but far exceeded them

Samantha was awesome! First time leaving our dogs with a sitter so we were a little nervous. However, her daily updates and pictures reassured us that they were well taken care of. She definitely learned their personalities and adjusted as needed. The framed pictures left for us at the end was perfect! I would highly recommend Samantha to anyone!

About: I have loved and cared for dogs for years. I was a veterinary technician and know how to administer medications and clip claws. I would love to take care of your fur baby. I’m available at a moment’s notice because I am retired. I am rarely out of town. I love animals and look forward to caring for yours! As a pet sitter, your pet’s safety, comfort, and happiness are my top priorities. I understand how important it is to trust someone who is entering your home and caring for your beloved pet. I treat every home with the same respect and care I would expect in my own, and every pet as if they were my own family.

Amber was so sweet and took the time to get to know each of my dogs and their personalities. She was not phased with my new ornery puppy and his antics. She walked them and played with them wonderfully and had the older dogs medicines very organized and asked good questions to make sure she had everything correct. She's wonderful and great with all types of breeds and sizes.

Shatera was AMAZING with my pup, Tucker! She house say for us while we went on vacation. She offered to do a merry and greet at our house before the stay to meet him and see the house. This was super helpful as our dog is very dog selective and it was the first time we had left him with someone he didn’t know. I was so incredibly nervous prior to meeting her as Tucker can be a lot to handle, especially for a stranger. But as soon as we met her, we knew we were leaving him in good hands! She sent pictures and videos of their adventures and gave updates throughout the stay. She was very communicative and followed directions thoroughly. The best part? Tucker loved her and her family! I highly recommend Shatera for anyone nervous about using a sitter service. She was incredible throughout the entire process! Happy to say we’ve found our dog sitter for Tuck ?

About: I have a lot of pets of my own. There was a point in time where I had 11 pets at one time! I love caring for all animals :) Im currently on summer break from college. I just returned from a semester off where I was at basic training for the army so I’m looking for something flexible that I enjoy to make some extra money! I will make sure the pet is fed and well entertained! If able I will also give them lots of cuddles and make sure they are happy!

About: What sets me apart is the care and attention I give as if each pet were my own. I recently cared for two dogs for a full week, handling everything from daily walks and feeding to playtime and companionship. I went beyond basic care to make sure they felt truly safe, seen, and loved while their owners were away. I’m reliable, nurturing, and committed to creating a calm, happy environment pets can count on. As a stay at home mom/military spouse, I have a flexible and stable home environment that’s ideal for providing personalized, attentive pet care. Since I’m home throughout the day, your pet will never be left alone for long periods and I can maintain their routines with walks, meals, and playtime. Our military lifestyle has taught me to be adaptable, dependable, and prepared for anything, which translates into the care I give each animal. Pet care fits naturally into our calm, family oriented home where your pet will be treated like part of the family. I offer a safe, loving, and dependable environment for your pet. My home has a fully fenced patio with turf grass for supervised outdoor time, plus a large grassy field right behind it for extra play and potty breaks. We’re also just around the corner from a dog park, perfect for social dogs who love to run and explore. I’m home throughout the day, so your pet will never be alone for long and will get plenty of attention, love, and routine. I treat every animal like family to ensure they feel secure, happy, and right at home.

April recently watched my dog Boo. She is a VERY responsible and loving dog caregiver. She made sure she had her meds and walked her at the requested times. I would highly recommend April to any of my friends and family to watch anyone's pet!
