This was the first time we've had someone stay in our home to watch our dog while we were away and Emily was wonderful! She was very attentive to his needs and was able to manage his anxiety meds and special diet. We really appreciated all the photos and detailed updates every day! I would certainly recommend Emily!

About: I love animals! I have always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. I have a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. My experience in pet care is from having my own pets and caring for family, friends and volunteering over the years. I currently work from home Tuesdays and Fridays so I’m available anytime those days for walking and play dates. I am available Monday, Wednesday and Thursday after 3:00 and any time on the weekends. I have a Boston Terrier of my own name Jax – love him so much !! I understand the importance of trusting someone to care for your "fur baby". I couldn't imagine my life without Jax. He brings so much joy and happiness to my life. Seeing his little faces everyday just puts a smile on my face! I will walk and care for you pet as if they are my own. I am trustworthy, reliable and always punctual so if you need someone to a walk your dog while you are at work, working late, venturing on a night on the town or just need someone to check in on them and play I am your girl. I will send pictures and videos to let you know they are in good hands.

Yesenia is so knowledgeable and attentive. Our cat was scared of fireworks so she made him a fort using a chair and a blanket; she also won over our rescue lab, who is wary of anything and anyone new. In addition to seemingly being a natural with animals, Yesenia is a pleasure to work with and provides lots of updates to pet parents. 100% will be using her again!

Mairead is a modern day Snow White. I returned to two happy and well cared for cats. Even my neighbor's cat stopped by to visit. And my millipede, which I hadn't seen for a month, made an appearance! I am especially grateful that Mairead provided expert care to my one cat that requires medication and a specific diet. I would 100% book with her again.

Allison has been an amazing dogsitter for our dog, Max. This is the third time we’ve worked with her, and she continues to exceed expectations every time. She’s reliable & communicative, and most importantly Max is always happy and well taken care of when we return. It gives us real peace of mind knowing he’s in such great hands. Highly recommend Allison!

Maniyah did an amazing job caring for my Yorkie, Major, while I was away. From the very beginning, she was professional, communicative, patient, and genuinely caring. Major is very emotionally attached to me and normally takes time warming up to people, but he became extremely comfortable with her throughout the stay, which gave me a huge sense of peace while traveling. She consistently kept me updated with messages, photos, and videos, which I truly appreciated. I could tell Major was receiving attention, love, playtime, and comfort while I was gone. She also followed his routines closely and treated both Major and my home with care and respect. Overall, Maniyah made this entire experience smooth and stress-free for me. I would absolutely book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, attentive, compassionate, and reliable to care for their pet. Thank you again for taking such great care of my little guy!

Marisa took care of our pups and home for a little over a week while we were on vacation. We have a young mini dachshund who is inconsistent with her potty-ing and a very senior lab. Marisa was very careful and patient with our pup’s quirks. They always seem so happy and tired when we get back! Our home was also spotless, as we left it. My plants also seemed very well cared for. This our second time working with Marisa and would certainly book with her again
