About: I have spent many overnights at homes while providing pet care. The durations of these stays have been up to a week. I do very well with following clear directions for feeding, medications, as well as other pet care needs. This includes affection and playing— I absolutely love dogs and cats! I am a teacher, which of course is a very busy job. However, I do not work over the summer, which means I have lots of flexibility in these months. I am also available during most weekends! I care for pets in my clients’ homes by following instructions regarding feeding, medications, going outside, as well as anything else that may be necessary! When owners are gone, I recognize it is best for the pets to keep their routines as consistent as possible! I respect any rules clients may have for their pets (e.g. where around they house they are allowed, any dietary limitations, and any necessary precautions to take so that the pets stay safe!)
“Dawn was easy to work with, she checked in on our cat everyday for 3 days, and sent photos and a report card through Rover. We look forward to using her again for our next vacation. Thanks Dawn!”

“Sue is a very responsible pet sitter! She contacted me because one of my kitties was in hiding & she'd been looking for an hour! She is a very caring pet sitter - & with shy kitties, she is wonderful.”

“I highly recommend Jessica! She was great with Aslan. Aslan can be quirky with new people--but he warmed up so quickly to Jessica (in fact, he was asleep on her feet about 15 minutes into our meet and greet!) Based on the pictures she sent, he looked happy and content on his walks. Jessica was prompt for our meetups and even swung by a second time to pick up a key (when I couldn't find it the day of our meetup). We'll definitely use Jessica again when we're away in the future.”

About: I've taken care of animals as long as I can remember. My mother was a dog trainer so I've picked up on some of her skills. I used to help my brother with his dog boarding business and have fostered all types of animals in the past. I work in lawn care, so during season my availability is limited. Off season (Mid November-March) I have a lot more free time, as I'll only be working 20 hours a week and get to choose when to work. So just let me know what you need and I'll see if I can make it work. I will never let your dog leave my sight. I'm really good with reading dogs body language, so I'll make sure they're as comfortable as possible. They'll get plenty of outside time and they will be fed accordingly. I'm capable of dealing with aggressive dogs as well, if you've got a dog that's a bit much to handle.
“Jessica was a fantastic sitter for Woody during my week long vacation. I felt very comfortable with her in charge and Woody really liked her as well. She did everything that was asked of her and she often went above and beyond. She sent pictures and kept up with my trip and even left the lights on for me when I was on my way home. I would certainly book Jessica again and highly recommend her.”

“Jennifer went above and beyond with my 4 senior kitties. Her communication and attention to detail made my nervous self feel so reassured. Will happily book her in the future for my pet sitting needs 🙂”

About: I’ve walked dogs for neighbors and friends for several years and have always loved it. I get along well with all animals, even ones with anxiety or separation issues. I am patient and attentive to their needs, and am happy to give them all the attention they want. I’m currently working part time from 9-2:30ish on weekdays, so I have plenty of availability before and after my hours on weekdays ,and am completely available on weekends! You can put your trust in me to keep your fur babies happy and healthy. I am aware that leaving them alone can be hard, and I want to make them as comfortable as possible.
“I can't say enough great things about the care Jamie B. Gave to our old boy, Buddha🐾💙 She went above and beyond with detailed doggo stats at every visit and sent lots of pictures and videos as well. Quality care from a wonderful human being☺️”

“Jane took great care of our furr-babies. She sent some pictures, were sure they were exercised/played with and cleaned up an “accident”. Your pets are in good hands with Jane!”

“Ethan answered our "short notice" request for a dog visit. He walked and visited with Jack; checking his water and food for us. He responded with text messages when he arrived and departed. He is a "Super" dog sitter! Thank you”

About: I’ve owned pets my entire life and began volunteering with rescues 8 years ago. I have fostered several puppies in preparation for their new homes, and I’ve done pet care for friends, family, and neighbors for many years. If I’m not caring for other pets, I can usually be found spending time with my own dogs who are 7 and 8 years old. I work 4 days a week and would love to provide care during my 3 off days. I’m also available for some walks and drop-in visits before work in the mornings. I plan to provide the same kind of care to your animals that I do to my own. I know that pets are family and I want to make your absence a little easier for them.
About: A little bit about me- I have cared for all sorts of animals growing up. Had my fair share of animals, dogs, cats, turtles to smaller furry critters and reptiles. Animal lover to the extreme! Animals are basically my therapy. 😄 I’m full time for caring for your furry friends. I enjoy any animal and love to care for them. Let me help be your favorite friendly furry friend care giver! I follow the same schedule your pets are used to, which makes it a lot more comfortable in knowing there’s no disruption in there everyday life. I care for them like they’re my own. 🙂
“Danny was great! He sent videos and pictures of the fun the cats were having. The kitties learned new ways to play which was exciting for them. He stayed in our home and left it as he found it: We are very pleased with his care for our fur balls and will definitely request his services again.”

About: I have 2 and 1/2 years of dog care in pet salon. I have delt with all different types of dogs. I am equipped to handle different breeds, temperaments, and ages.
