“Matt has been great to work with. Very accommodating and responsive. He has handled both our big dogs so well- even dealing with a very suspicious Rottweiler like a champ.”
“Jessica took great care of my cats. One of my cats needed a special soft food diet due to recent oral surgery and Jessica was very accommodating. She observed the cats carefully to make sure that they are healthy and sent daily updates with pictures which really gave me peace of mind when I was traveling.”
“I booked Leilani and Jessie for the first time over thanksgiving. They came over a few days before to meet Layla and get familiar with the house. Layla is shy and they were so sweet and calm with her. I felt at ease knowing they would be checking in on her. I could tell they really know animals. By the end of the trip Layla was warming up to them nicely. I’ll definitely rebook the next time we go out of town!”
“Alexandria is always so wonderful with our cat. This time around, she had the added task of administering medicine, and she had no problems whatsoever. Highly recommend!”
About: I have had dogs & cats most of my adult life. In addition, I am pet sitter for my Grand-doggies. I will treat your pet like family. I am retired from full time employment. I have lots of flexibility in my schedule to help with your pet. I am available with short notice. I will care for your pet in your home by following your instructions. I will respect your home and privacy like I would want to be treated.
“Rachel was so loving and patient with my two rescue dogs! She followed our instructions for our pups’ individual needs and even spent time cuddling with them during her drop in visits. She was super responsive and willing to be flexible with help! Would definitely book again!”
“Second time working with Jenn and again a good experience! The house was as we left it, the kids seemed happy when we got home, and Jenn was able to stop by a bit later in the evening for us than we'd normally ask a sitter for, so we are very thankful she was willing to do so. Definitely look to Jenn if you have any sitter needs!”
About: I have had dogs for the past 30 years. I am an approved foster home for a pug rescue. I have rescued several dogs! The last two years, I have been a dog walker! The dog I recently rescued was a client I walked whose mom was disabled. She needed more care than her mom could give her. We bonded from the first walk, and I knew I could be her forever home! I have a blind/deaf pug as well. I do a lot of housesitting and dogsitting it’s always a joy! My home is on an acre. I have my own business out of my home, and so I am home all day and your pet will not be left alone! I am home all day running my health coach business. Pet care will keep me busy and your animal happy..and the resident dogs will love having playmates! I do have a portion of my yard fenced in so the dogs have lots of room to run and play and be dogs. Dogs are rarely crated unless they are used to that and the owner request that they have time in their crate. I am home the majority of the time. I work from home on a part-time basis so I am with the dogs the majority of the time. When the dogs come to my home, it is like they are on their own little vacation. They have a good time playing with the other dogs and go home tired.
“Danielle was a fantastic cat sitter. She left thorough reports and we felt very grateful knowing our cat was in such good hands and being looked after with such genuine care. Due to travel problems on our end, Danielle even agreed on the fly to add a couple days to the visitations. She was accommodating, professional, caring, and easy to communicate with. We'll definitely be requesting her services again. Highly recommend!”
About: I’ve taken care of my family dogs since the oldest was a puppy, I have take care of friends dogs as well as relatives dogs too. I’m currently working full time and take care of pets when I get home. When I’m taking care of dogs for others I find time before and after work. I have a fenced in yard, my dogs get along well with other dogs . I’ve had my dogs interact with other dogs since puppies . I take them on walks and there’s a dog park near my home.
About: I can’t remember a time that great family experiences didn’t involve a dog. We travel with our dogs, walk with our dogs, eat and play with our dogs. I have a senior Chiweenie because he is an older guy. We’ve had to change how we do things. Walks are shorter, but since he loves him so much, they are paramount. We have to make sure that he gets his medications three times a day. Petey now has specific eating requirements. This is all done so that he doesn’t have seizures and it keeps his arthritis from bothering him too much. I regularly care for my daughter’s three Cavaliers when they travel. Once, between all of our family pets I watched six dogs, two puppies, three chickens, and a bunny. I loved every minute of it! If you hire me, I will make sure that I care for your dogs like they are my own. Once you outline their daily needs, I will follow it to the letter. Your pets schedule will be the structure of my day. Everything else I do will be fit around it. If I have something that will interfere with that I will not accept the job. I will watch your pets in your home that as closely resembles their schedule when you are home. Leaving your pets can be hard are you and them. I find the less interference in how they usually live is the best.
About: I have had a passion for animals ever since I was a young child. My dream would be to run my own dog kennel. Ive had animals my whole life. One of my other part time jobs is working at a boarding kennel. I bathe them, clean their kennels and take them out. As well as feeding them. I’m a very flexible person and I’m just doing this on the side. I do work full time abd part time so I may not always be available. But, I would love to eventually be able to do dog sitting and animal care permanently. I’m very good with animals! You can trust me around your dogs or cats!! All animals have a special place in my heart. And, you can trust that your animals are in good care while you’re away.
