Nicholas did an AMAZING job watching our little dachshund Moo and our apartment when we went away for a week to Hawaii! He did everything we asked and much more! Nicholas is so nice and so professional and I would recommend him to anyone! He is now our go-to dog/house sitter!

Camryn was great to work with! Very quick to respond and kept us updated on a daily basis with pictures and a summary of the days events. Our two pities loved her and we could tell from the pictures they enjoyed being with her. Pumpkin, our cat was relaxed and happy when we got home, which is normally not the case when we return from a trip. Our home was in good order upon our return. Camryn is very responsible and handled our rowdy boys easily. I highly recommend her and will use again.

Abby did a great job with our dogs. She sent us pictures throughout her stay and we could tell they were happy and thriving. She cleaned up after herself, leaving our house in good shape. I would absolutely recommend Abby to take care of your pets.

About: Hello everyone, I recently graduated from the University of Michigan school of Dentistry and just began my residency here in Kansas City. As a double Wolverine, Go Blue!! Growing up I had a German Shephard and have two Yorkies although they currently live with my parents. I miss them every day so I am looking to direct my love and care towards your lucky dog(s)! I have dog sat for friends and family before and work regularly for Wag maintaining a 5-star rating. I have had plenty of people tell me I am very good with dogs, which inspired me to get involved with providing these sort of services for local dog owners. I am a fairly athletic individual so I enjoy playful dogs and am willing to put in the work to make sure they get the exercise they need. Additionally, I love making sure all dogs receive sufficient affection to aid their emotional development. Our furry friends positively contribute to uplifting our mental health, so I believe they deserve to be held in such importance and treated with respect. Sincerely, Torrey My residency will keep me busy 9-5 every day. I have no problem staying at your residence, having done many house sittings throughout my care career. I typically let my pupper visitors sleep or hang out wherever I am as long as they do no shed profusely and it aligns with their home experience.

About: I've always had the ability to easily connect with dogs. I've spent the past ten years walking and socializing rescue animals as a volunteer at the Humane Society. I've worked with every age range, from puppies to senior dogs in hospice care. I bring that experience with me each and every time I work with an animal, as each and every animal is unique. Pet care is a part of my everyday life. I'm currently working part-time, leaving me with plenty of time during the day to take care of both my animal, and yours. I also volunteer my free time at the Humane Society of Elkhart County. Communication is key. I'll set up guidelines and boundaries with you ahead of time, making sure each animal has their specific needs met during the visit. Leashes will always be used on walks and doors will always be closed and locked when not in use. Do you have certain areas, rooms, or furniture that are off limits? Boundaries will be set up and respected to ensure that both your pets and home will be treated with respect.

Candice did a fantastic job with my pup Bo. By the pictures sent to me he appeared to be having a blast. Once she left he was one tired pup. He went to the bedroom to lay down and I hardly heard a peep out of him the rest of the day/night. Thanks for making his day fun!

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is my five years of experience caring for dogs of all ages and needs. I have worked with everything from energetic puppies, who require lots of playtime and consistency, to senior dogs who need patient, gentle care and a predictable routine. I am attentive, reliable, and committed to making sure each dog feels safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I take the time to learn every pet's unique personality and tailor their care to meet their specific needs. I am currently a college student in South Bend, IN, and I am available to provide both dog sitting & house sitting services. I have experience caring for pets and maintaining a safe, clean home environment, and I am happy to accommodate your pet's routine, energy level, and specific needs. If you're traveling for the holidays or simply need an extra hand, I would love to help ensure your pets and home are well cared for. In your home, I care for your pets the same way I care for my own, by following their normal routine, giving them lots of love, and making sure they feel safe in their familiar space. I stick closely to your feeding, walking, and play schedules, and I am attentive to any special needs or instructions you share. I keep your home clean, respectful, and secure. I am happy to help with small tasks like watering plants or bringing in mail. I want both you and your pet to feel comfortable while you're apart.

She’s super communicative, clearly loves animals, and sent us lots of updates to ease our separation anxiety. We’re so glad to have found her and will be booking again!!

This was my second time leaving my girls with a sitter. Jacee was wonderful, and made me feel completely at ease from the moment I met her, along with my dogs. She came to meet us at our home prior, and the one dog who takes a minute to get close, quickly welcomed her. Communicated frequently, sending pictures every morning and evening, which allowed me to see how happy they were with her, and I was able to not worry about them and focus on visiting and helping my grandfather while he is recovering in another state. I am looking forward to having her come back.

Lorraine was responsive to our needs and it was so nice for our dogs to stay in our home. She sent pics and reports on how the dogs were doing. Was pleased to find someone who is comfortable giving my dogs injections and medication. Lorraine has a friendly personality and made us feel comfortable leaving our babies with her for our first try with an in-home sitter.
