BUTLER'S PAWPY SITTERS

Hello, thank you for considering me. I have always loved and had pets since I was a child. I have provided boarding for family and friends as well as clients over the years, and now I am retired and home all day to care for your pets full time. My teens will be assisting and loving on your fur babies who will probably snuggle with them at night.

Karen & her girls was absolutely amazing! I couldn’t have asked for a better sitter for my dog. She was extremely flexible, stayed in contact with me throughout my entire trip, and kept me updated so I never had to worry about how he was doing. She even offered to get him a day early, which I really appreciated! He clearly had the BEST time because I honestly think he’s a little sad to be back home with me 😂🐶❤️ That alone tells me everything I need to know about how well he was cared for. I’ve officially found my forever sitter! I would 100% recommend Karen to anyone looking for someone reliable, caring, flexible, and trustworthy with their fur baby. We will definitely be booking with her again! 🐾💕

Karen B was an absolute Blessing for us. My fur babies have never been so happy and relaxed when I left them and picked them up. Finding someone you trust with your fur babies is hard. But Karen made us feel completely at ease from the meet and greet to the first drop off. I could tell she gave them lots of love, patience and care. When I picked my fur babies up, they gave her kisses. They have never done that, ever! She sent us pictures daily and videos. Karen is a rockstar sitter. 10 stars all around!

I honestly can’t say enough wonderful things about Karen. I’m a repeat customer for a reason! She goes above and beyond to make sure my dog feels comfortable, happy, safe, and truly loved while I’m away. I feel incredibly lucky to have found someone I can trust so completely with such an important part of my family. If you’re looking for someone who will care for your dog with love, patience, and genuine dedication, I cannot recommend her enough. She is truly AMAZING! 💕 🐾 Thank you again!!

Karen was awesome! I needed someone last minute to drop in on my pups, and she came through for me. She followed all of my house rules, which I really appreciated, made sure they were fed and let out, and even gave them some belly rubs and extra love. 🐾❤️ I felt really comfortable knowing my pups were in good hands. I’ll definitely be booking with her again!

Safety, trust & environment

Inside, I have leather couches, tile floors covered with soft, non-slip waterproof pads for your pups comfort. There are also teenagers awaiting the opportunity to snuggle with your fur baby. There is no area off limits here. I have one small and one large crate if you prefer your pet to be crated during the night, though. Outdoors, I have a large, grassy, fenced in backyard which provides plenty of shady playtime and exercise for your pet. The yard is treated professionally for fleas and mosquitoes. I have balls, ropes, and frisbees for your fur babies entertainment, so no need to bring toys unless your baby has his/her own favorite ! To ensure no critters come in from outdoors, please pack your babies food in an airtight container. Don't forget the appropriate measuring cup for proper portions!

Pets

A typical day

I have two teens who love to run around and play with our fur babies. We have ropes, balls and frisbees for them to play with. We have frequent outdoor playtime and we often walk the neighborhood at night for a bit of extra exercise for the fur babies and humans alike! Please pack harnesses, as they allow for a more comfortable walking experience for those babies who like to pull when they see a squirrel!

Although not necessary, I'm open to having a meet and greet to ensure you feel comfortable with leaving your fur baby in my hands and feel great about their living accommodations while you are away. Peace of mind is important while you are away handling business and even while on a vacation. When sending your request, please indicate whether you'd like me to book your fur babies stay, or schedule a meet and greet. Please let me know if your baby has any special needs or accommodations during his/her stay.
