1. Vy L.
“Vy was great! She took care of Maddie for 3 days while we went away for a wedding. She was great with our 10 year old Boxer and she communicated well the entire time. I would recommend her to others!”
2. Angela W.
“Angela has cared for our two older cats on two different occasions and we would highly recommend her services. She leaves detailed messages and pictures with each visit (during our week away). She understands some cats are quite shy but takes note of their eating, food and water needs and advised us when one cat seemed sickly. This allowed us to contact our vets even before we got back home to set up an appointment. I’m sure you will get a great pet care giver!”
3. Gail C.
“Our cats seemed perfectly happy and calm when we arrived home. Gail did a great job caring for them and was super nice about changing dates when our trip plans changed.”
4. Chasity P.
About: I'm a very energetic person so I will always play with the pets and I'm always making sure they are well looked after. I have taken care of plenty of pets aging from young puppies and kittens to older. When taking care of cats I have plenty of toys and things for them to climb on. I have also taken care of pets that have special needs. Like diabetics and other things. I know how to give medications oral and in shot form. Special skills would be probably that I can keep up with any animal and I love all of them. They put a smile on my face. And I love seeing owners with the same smiles. It warms my heart every day. ? I'm usually free most of the day and love cuddles and walking with the pups and kitties. So scheduling will be easy and always available. I have a fenced in yard and a dog and cat that love others. We can play and go for walks. Also tons of activities to do.
5. Alicia W.
“I really appreciated Alicia coming for a walk. She was on time and Wiyot was thrilled.”
6. Erin M.
“Erin was very responsive and helpful throughout our whole trip. Will definitely use her again!”
7. Lisa M.
“Lisa did a great job taking care of our 4 high-maintenance cats!”
8. Alison T.
“Amazing! Highly recommend.”
9. Hayden K.
“Once again, Hayden did a wonderful job watching my cat. He's been so good at keeping up with pictures and playing with Lorenzo. I can't say enough good things about how he treated my cat.”
10. Jessica B.
“I would absolutely trust Jessica to watch any of my animals. She is very diligent about keeping everything clean and keeping them in a routine. I have no doubt that my animals would be spoiled while I was away and very well taken care of. She is also on time when it comes to when my dog needed to be walked. I again would trust Jessica implicitly with the care of my animals.”
11. Jordan D.
“Jordan was available at very short notice to come meet our cat and learn about his needs during drop in visits. We are very happy with the care she provided him.”
12. Chloe T.
“Chloe has done a wonderful job taking care of our two cats while we were out of town. The kitties are always healthy and happy when we return, so I am confident that Chloe gave them lots of attention and affection during her visits. She also went above and beyond by watering our Christmas tree, bringing in our packages, and even buying the kitties little toys during her first visit, which they still like to play with. I will definitely be contacting Chloe for our future cat-sitting needs!”
13. Shayla K.
“We had a great experience with Shayla! Our dog Milo loved her...and she was super flexible with our schedule. :) We will def be contacting her again!”
14. Megan M.
“Megan is an exceptional pet sitter. Not only does she take the time to understand the needs of each individual animal, she also takes pride in the customer service aspect of pet setting. She provides thoughtful updates and upon arriving home, I always find things tidier than when I left, despite the puppy play I know occurs during my absence.”
15. Anna H.
“Anna is a huge animal lover! She is on her way to becoming a vet, and will always make your fur babies feel loved, safe, and happy. She has a large amount of experience with animals, especially dogs, and will be the best for watching your babies while you are away/at work, or just want your animal to get some extra lovings. I highly recommend her!!”
16. Brante D.
“Brante cared for our three furbabies (cats) like they were her own! I felt completely at ease leaving my cats for a couple days, knowing they were in good hands! They received lots of extra attention and cuddles 😊”
17. Julia M.
“Great communication and fulfilled duties to my expectation. Will hire again.”
18. Katelyn S.
“Katie is reliable, eager to work, always willing to help out last minute. The way our schedules work we need someone reliable and available and Katie has been perfect.”
19. Erin B.
“Erin is a long-time friend and pet lover. My husband and I can always trust her to watch our dog Penny whenever we leave town. We have a cavalier and know that she would be more comfortable staying at someone’s house. Erin never hesitates to welcome Penny into her own home for an extended doggie vacation.”
20. Jodi S.
About: I grew up on a farm with all sorts of animals and my love of all animals has only grown. I’ve been taking care of dogs, cats, horses, small animals for over 25+yrs. I went to vet tech school 09-11. I’m skilled in all stages of life care for cats/dogs and small animals as well. Please reach out to me directly as my scheduling is available accordingly to my other full time job as a USPS employee. I will be at work 6 days a week 7am till 2/3pm so no mid day drop in visits are available at this time. I have two lovable dogs for your fur babies to come play with and keep company as well! I can easily baby gate your pup or crate your pup/animal tho so they have their own time if needed/required!
