About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was 13. Neighbors, friends and family have relied on me to walk and feed pets. I have experience with different breeds and size dogs, even with puppies. And I've gotten use to cleans messes and teaching from time to time. I'm not an expert but what I learned has help my friends and family with the dogs and puppies. Also if bathing the dog is a problem I have no issues handling it if the need arrives. I'm free anytime from Monday thru Friday but not Thursday evenings and I can do weekends if necessary but not Sunday mornings unfortunately do to religious reasons unless I'm pet sitting. I do have different size crates if needed one small, medium, and xtra large and I do have a gated section in my home for the dogs.

About: I am an experienced and attentive pet sitter with an eye for detail. My #1 priority is the safety and well-being of your pet, and when your furry friend is in my care you can relax knowing that they are being loved and cared for just as if they were at home. My life is guided by the principles of the Bible and I base all my dealings on honesty. Your pet isn't my only client, you are too, and I am looking forward to building our professional relationship. Customer service is very important to me, and I pride myself on my communication skills. I’ve owned both dogs and cats, have experience with lots of breeds, and can administer medications. Truly, it is my pleasure to provide a safe and loving environment for your pet. No dog should ever have to be lonely and I love keeping them company. When your dog stays with me, they'll enjoy the loving attention of myself and my son. We're so excited to meet you and your four legged friend! I have a pretty flexible schedule. There may be last minute fees if the book is short notice or canceled. No doubt all contributing factors will be taken into consideration. I am no longer having pets stay at my home. When I visit your home specific instructions make things run smoothly. Thank you for your consideration.

About: I’ve grown up with cats and dogs in my family, and have moved out and have adopted a cat on my own. I am familiar with what makes pets happy and how to take care of them. I’ve dog sat for close friends and family before and am confident I will be a great resource to count on. I’m working part time and do drive so I am comfortable commuting. It gives me more time to focus on dog and cat care! Safety and trust are prioritized when it comes to pets. Understanding what triggers pets can have and making sure that they are happy and well taken care of,

Robert took great care of Jeffrey! He is a reliable, caring, and professional dog sitter. We booked him from out of town for a wedding and he kept in touch to confirm, showed up on time and became immediate friends with Jeffrey. He was great with communication - sending us many pictures and videos. His passion for dogs is evident, I could tell that my dog not only received necessary care but also enjoyed the company and companionship Robert provided.

We had River care for our senior Labrador while we were away for the weekend. She was great to work with -- conscientious in her preparations, very communicative throughout the stay giving us updates multiple times each day . She was able to accomodate all of our dog's idiosyncracies. At the end of the weekend everyone was happy! Will definitely work with River again.

About: I’m a current cat owner to my 1-year-old indoor cat, Noodle. I’ve boarded some cats at home, providing attentive feeding, companionship, and monitoring their needs. In addition, I have 3 years of experience caring for dogs by home sitting, drop in visits, and walking. This has helped me become patient, reliable, and attentive to different pet personalities. So I’m very familiar with daily care, feeding routines, litter maintenance for cats, potty training for puppies and understanding their behavior. I truly enjoy caring for animals and will treat your bebe like my own while keeping you updated for peace of mind. I have a very flexible schedule working from home three days a week. Available for week and weekend boarding or daily drop ins. Also available to schedule multiple drop ins during the day. I understand how important it is to feel comfortable leaving your pet in someone else’s care. I’m attentive, reliable, and will always follow your cat’s routine closely. I provide regular photo updates and make sure your pet feels safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I live in the first floor with no access to the backyard. My one year old American Shorthair is very friendly but shy, and there are no children in the house.

About: I’ve raised my own dog since he was a puppy, so I know exactly what dogs need at every stage. From early morning walks to keeping them entertained and fed, it’s just part of my daily routine. I didn’t just own a dog I grew up with him. Your dog will get the same attention and care I give mine every single day. Dogs get a morning walk around 10–10:30am, then they’re free to relax in the living room or hang out in the fenced backyard. Once it cools down in the evening I take them out again around 6–7pm. During the day they have access to the backyard for potty breaks whenever they need it. Before bed there’s one last walk around 11–11:30pm so they’re settled for the night. I have a fenced backyard so dogs can roam and play safely without any worry. I own a friendly dog myself so your pup will have a buddy to hang out with. We’re in a house so there’s plenty of space to move around and get comfortable. Dogs are welcome on the furniture I want them to feel at home, not like they’re in a strange place.

Michael and Durell are swell hosts! The sent lots of photos and I can tell my Charlie was very content and well treated in their care. They were also extremely scrupulous in making absolutely sure that when they had more than one dog staying, there would be no question of compatibility. I would not hesitate to book with them again!

Emily has been the absolute best. Our cats are extremely attached to humans (and specifically us) so we were pleasantly surprised by how well they adjusted to Emily. She took great care of the cats, sent us lots of cute photos as we requested and was a great communicator. 10/10 would do this again!!! Can’t recommend her enough for all your cats as well!!

This is second vacation Leslie has house set for us. She is amazing! We have two rescue dogs that we wanted to leave in their home while we were away. She fed them, played and walked them and gave them their meds. Peace of mind knowing your fur babies are well cared for makes being away more relaxing. We had daily texts with photos which helped with our missing them too.
