“Jeremy is a true professional! Came early and made sure my furbaby had everything he needed and followed his schedule to a T. I highly recommend Jeremy and his services and look forward to booking him again. Thank you Jeremy!”

“Claire was a fantastic dog sitter! I felt confident when she came over for a meet & greet that all would be well. She communicated well in advance, was very flexible, and continued to communicate & share photos/videos while we were away. No doubt our dog felt fully comfortable with Claire staying with her, she got her walks and tons of attention. ☺️”

“Austin is the best pet sitter we have used to date. He was friendly and responsive. He took great care of our pup and even looked after some monarch butterflies we had hatching for our daughter in the backyard ;) He went over the top to clean up after himself and even throw in a load of laundry to clean the linens he had used. HIGHLY recommend! We will definitely use him again :)”

“Fallon did an excellent job caring for my 3 pups while we were out of town. She took great care of our place while she stayed there for 6 days, and sent lots of updates while we were gone. I would highly recommend her and will use her again!”

“Carmen is the best pet sitter we’ve ever had!! She stayed with our 2 very shy chihuahuas for a week.

“There are too many good things to say about Adeline and the care she provided to our home — and most importantly, our animals! She communicates through text and picture, which provided such great comfort during our time away. It was clear when we got home that our animals were loved on and well cared for.. it seemed like we were never gone. Oh! And she left the house in amazing condition. I highly recommend Adeline.”

About: Hi! I can’t wait to meet your beloved fur babies! I spent the past three years working full time at an animal sanctuary where I cared for horses, dogs, cats, goats, and sheep. My passion is riding horses and hiking with dogs. I've owned & loved 4 of my own horses, 4 dogs, 6 cats and several smaller animals in my life. I am an avid hiker and love being outside on my next adventure - hopefully with your pooch next! It's a true pleasure to enjoy the company of your beloved dog, horse, cat or other beloved family member. I'm a lucky mommy of two daughters ages 11 & 9 years who love animals as much as I do. They often join me in the animal care. I can't wait to help spoil your babies! My schedule is currently fairly open and flexible. I am especially available early in the morning and later in the afternoon/evening. Sat and especially Sunday are usually totally open for me. I would prefer to go to other people's homes to care for there pets however I could take one or possibly two smaller dogs in my own home. I do not have a yard but I go on long walks and have trails all around me.
“Kimberly was fantastic. Super friendly and took great care of GoGo. She communicated well with pictures and all that one wishes for. Left home in great condition - super trustworthy. Will utilize her again, for sure!”
