Highlights
Pet care experience
Helping your pet get their steps in
We're the go-to petsitters for our friends and family members, including pet-sitting and supporting the care of several seniors adopted through ElderDog. Zayd and I have both grown up around dogs. My family adopted my first dog when I was 4 years old, and Zayd's family already had a dog when he was born. As a child, I trained multiple puppies on my family's farm in basic obedience and some agility, while my husband remained consistent with his family's training routine for their dogs. We've both cared for our family's pets since we were young children and are the first choice of petsitters for our loved ones' fur babies.
Qualifications
Safety, trust & environment
We're very attentive, and keep our eyes on your furbaby during walks to ensure they stay safe, and don't eat anything (including our treats) without your prior knowledge and consent. We also have a very gentle senior dog who loves meeting new friends and is happy to keep your dog(s) company.
Ratings and reviews
Philippines and Zayd are kind people and easy to work with. They were flexible, asked good questions to best care for our pet, and provided ample updates. Thanks again!
Such great help and I can tell our pets loved them so much. Their updates were amazing!
Philippa and Zayd are very attentive and caring individuals. They paid attention to my cat's needs and were very communicative, keeping me up to date about how they are doing. Would definitely ask them to take care of them again!
BEST pet caregiver ever! Philippa has looked after my precious Benji like he was her own. I exclusively adopt elder dogs and have had several in the last few years. Pippa adjusts caregiving to each dog's wants and needs and I am totally at ease when I'm away on vacation leaving them in her care or having a long work day. She is reliable, flexible, loving to all animals and will be an asset to both you and your pet(s).
Zayd and Pippa are two of the most trustworthy people I know. They are kind, easy to work with, and diligent. They watched over my house and took care of my cat several times when I was away, and I had absolute faith that everything would be taken care of in my absence. Highly, highly recommend these two - this is 100% who you want to take care of your pet or home to give you stress-free, complete assurance that everything is taken care of in the most caring way possible.
Philippa has watched my cat several times and is always reliable and loving with my cat. I trust that he is always well taken care of with Philippa.
