All the dogs were happy and well cared for—we’re so grateful for her help and would absolutely book with her again!”
About: I have cared for all kinds of animals in my life, from Rabbits and Birds to Cats and Dogs. My family always had a number of pets for me to look after. I am an experienced dog walker who owns two energetic Labrador retrievers. I have also cared for my brother's dogs over the years, one of which was highly reactive. I do very well with big dogs 70+ lbs, as that is what I currently own but am more than capable with smaller breads as well. I have a full-time day job that keeps me busy, but I am looking to do some side jobs to reduce stress from my day job. I do have two dogs of my own who I care for, but this shouldn't deter me from being to help care for yours. As the owner of two high-energy dogs, I know when they need to be sent to their own corners after playing too hard. I have two large kennels on hand for timeouts if need be. I prefer to use a hands-free leash with a tragic handle on a walk for added support control on walks. I do not use retractable leashes as they are not recommended by trainers or vets.
“Lizzy was my first time having a sitter for my boys! She not only met but exceeded my expectations and couldn’t ask for anything more! Hope to have her watch my puppets in the future for sure! Thanks so much!”
“I recommend Renee highly! She has watched our two dogs twice while we were out of town and she has gone above and beyond both times. It's clear she really cares about our girls and takes great care of them. Thanks Renee!”
“Amazing experience, tons of detailed updates and pictures throughout the sit. I felt so confident that my pets were being cared for well while we were out of town for the weekend 😊”

About: I have taken care of cats and dogs of all ages since I was 18 years old! I’m a cat owner of 4 years myself as well, and my kitty is my very best friend. As far as sitting, I have done mostly done overnight stays, but I have done pop ins and walking as well. I’ve sat for small dogs and large, puppies, kittens and elderly pups. I absolutely love spending time around and caring for animals. I do work part time, usually averaging about 5 shifts a week. I make my own schedule biweekly, and my shifts are generally no more than 5-6 hours, so my hours are extremely flexible depending on when I’m needed! I am all for play, walking, and unlimited pets when I dog/cat sit. I will pay careful attention when it comes to letting them out if there is a fenced yard, as well as to their collar and leash prior to taking them out on walks. A pet owners directions are very important to me as far as feeding/potty/medication times, and I take the responsibility of caring for any animal very seriously.
