“Melanie did such a great job! She made sure that both our babies felt as though it was a normal day while we were gone. We felt so comfortable with her watching them. We will definitely be asking Melanie to watch them again. Thank you!!!”
“Mandi was fantastic! I'm such a worry wart when it comes to leaving my cats for long periods of time, she really put my mind at ease with pictures and updates. She was so understanding too, since we had a tight budget and this was my first time ever booking over Rover. <3 100/10 Recommend!”
“Brooke was amazing with our 4 dogs (including an almost 3 month old puppy!). She had no problem staying for extended drop in visits due to the new puppy. She played with all of the dogs, spent time outside and brought them in when it was getting too hot. I will absolutely be booking Brooke again soon!”
“Britney did a fantastic job watching my 3 kitties while I was gone. Got home and the kitties were all happy and we just jumped back into our routine. Highly recommend Britney.”
“Kelli is fantastic!! She truly took the time to get to know my two very different kitties and how to best care for them. The daily photos were adorable and she was even kind enough to grab a package and the mail that came while we were away. She went above and beyond and we are excited to have her back again!”
“Elise is fantastic. She is my regular pet sitter for my furbaby Bella. A 2 yr. old black cat. Her service is impeccable. Punctual, trustworthy and sweet. I highly recommend her and will always book with her. On top of all that, Bella loves her.”
About: With years of hands-on experience caring for dogs of all ages and sizes, I’m the go-to pet care person for my friends and family. Whether it’s a playful puppy or a calm adult dog, big or small, I’ve got it covered. I’m passionate about animals, always ready to step in and care for a friend's pet. I’m well-versed in managing dogs with dietary restrictions and strict feeding schedules, ensuring they stay healthy and happy. I’ve had my own dog for 9 years, a loyal companion I found on the street, which deepened my love and understanding of pet care. Pet care is seamlessly integrated into my daily and weekly routine. I work from home on Mondays and Fridays, allowing me to spend more time with my dog and any other pets I’m caring for. On Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays, I work in the office but have the flexibility to leave at any time or during my lunch hour to check on my pets or provide any necessary care. For the past 9 years, I’ve cared for my own dog every single day, ensuring she gets the attention and love she deserves. I’m also often called upon to care for friends' and family’s pets, whether by staying at their homes or having the pets come to stay with me. Pet care is a priority, and I’m always happy to accommodate any needs that arise. When caring for pets in my client's home, I prioritize respect and responsibility. I make sure to leave the house exactly as I found it, maintaining a clean and tidy environment. I’m adaptable to any pet needs, whether that involves regular potty breaks, crating your pet while I’m out, or administering medication. I’m also happy to assist with additional tasks like checking the mail or watering plants while I’m there. Above all, I ensure that your pet receives plenty of love, attention, and care while you're away, providing you with peace of mind.
“It was a pleasure to have Sara care for my cats while I was away. I loved getting regular updates. She communicated well and I REALLY REALLY appreciate her patience and flexibility when my cats were not cooperating. I highly recommend Sara's pet sitting services, she goes above and beyond.”
“When we booked Laura, she was very thorough with our instructions. When we were still away, our power went out and Laura made sure the cats were taken care off. I highly recommend Laura for your cat sitting needs!”
About: Hi! My name is Hannah. I am a long-time animal lover. I grew up in a house full of cats, dogs, rabbits, birds, and a lots of other critters! I learned to care for pets at a young age and started adopting my own almost as soon as I left home. I have two dogs called Julie and Scout, and they light up my day. I have had them each since they were puppies, and we enjoy all sorts of activities. Hiking, camping, going to go lake-you name it! We also occasionally stay inside and watch movies. 😁 I am familiar with Sherman and Denison and spend most of my time in these two towns. But if you have a dog or cat farther away, I might be able to make arrangements. Just let me know ahead of time if that is the situation. I make special arrangements on a case-by-case basis. I love cats and dogs of all sizes, and I look forward to meeting yours! Please keep me in mind for all of your pet sitting needs. 😁 I look forward to hearing from you! Thanks
