Caring Sitter for Your Critters

I want to care for your home and pets and avoid having a lease and rent. I enjoy this lifestyle and love being around pets. I care a lot about your critters and your home, and think it makes a lot of sense for many pets to stay in their own cozy house while you're away. I'll do my best to keep your pets in their routine and care for your home with respect. I do have a life and won't be home all the time, but will work with you to be sure that the pets are happy are very well cared for. Sometimes leaving the critters is the hardest part! I really love them :D Let's set up a meet and greet!

Scott was great! You can tell he loves dogs. He took great care of my girls. They were tired & happy when I got home. Scott also took good care of the house and left it clean. Would book again!

Scott was super helpful when I needed a sitter for an overnight work trip. Great communicator and easy to coordinate with. Roux took to him immediately and I can tell he enjoyed his visit with a new pal! House was clean and pup was happy when I got home :) would absolutely recommend having Scott as a trusted house/dog sitter

Scott did a wonderful job taking care of our pets and our house. He was communicative the whole time and flexible when our plans changed last minute. No complaints at all. Thanks again for everything!

Scott has stayed with our 2 older girls a few times now and we continue to be very happy with the quality of his care! As usual, he was flexible and quick to communicate. One of our girls is on the grumpy side and the other is skittish, but he is extremely sweet with them and they clearly love him!

Just finished a 6 day sit with Scott, and wow are we impressed! Scott is incredibly chill, communicative, reliable l, and goes over and above with everything he does. Our pets absolutely loved him too! Huge thanks to Scott, and a genuine recommendation to anyone considering him for a future sit.

Some things I like to learn ahead of time: - Would you like to schedule a meet-and-greet before the stay? - Does your pup have any health issues that need to be tended to? For instance, dietary restrictions, medicine, or behavior triggers? - Does your pup like to stick to a given schedule, like regular walks in the morning and evening? - What does your pup do well around? What does your pup try to avoid? - What’s the best way to spoil your pup?
