Pet care experience
Hi there! We’re Brenda and Mike — a caring, dependable couple who’ve been pet sitting together since 2018. Over the years, we’ve had the joy of caring for dogs, cats, and small animals of all breeds, ages, and personalities. Whether it’s cuddly couch potatoes or high-energy pups, senior cats or shy rescues, we’re here to give them the love and attention they deserve. We started out helping friends and neighbors, and quickly realized how much we love being around animals. Since then, pet sitting has become a true passion — not just a service. We know how important it is to feel at ease while you're away, and we work as a team to ensure your pets are safe, happy, and loved every step of the way. 🐾 What You Can Expect: • Reliable, flexible, and communicative care • Daily updates with photos and messages • Experience with senior pets and medication administration • Respect for your home and routines • Tons of affection, playtime, and walks tailored to your pet’s needs Brenda brings a calm, nurturing presence, and Mike is a natural at earning the trust of even the most timid pets. Together, we create a relaxed, pet-focused atmosphere where your furry family members can feel secure and stress-free. We can’t wait to meet you and your pets — feel free to reach out with any questions or to set up a meet & greet!

Reviews
Mike, for as long as I’ve known him, is a dog lover. He grew up around dogs and has always gave ample love an affection to all dogs other than his own, mine included. He is constantly taking his pups for walks and hikes, playing with them in the yard, or taking them to the dog park to play with others. Dependable is an understatement. Would feel great knowing my pup is being well taken care of.

Availability
Pet care fits seamlessly into our daily routine, thanks to the flexibility of our work schedules. Brenda has the ability to work from home as needed, which allows her to provide attentive, consistent care throughout the day. When we're pet sitting on weekends, our focus is entirely on the pets in our care. We make it a priority to incorporate a long walk mid-day during our lunch breaks for fresh air, exercise, and enrichment. Whether it's weekday check-ins or weekend stays, we are committed to maintaining a calm, comforting presence and meeting each pet's individual needs.
