4. Brandy G.

“Ive used Brandys daycare services for Loki 2 days a week for about 5 weeks now. She is very attentive, loves dogs, and caring towards him. He gets so excited to see her and looks so comfortable around her family. She gives physical daily report cards with the potty schedule, behavior, feedings, comments and recommendations. She sends photos throughout the day. Her family enjoys having him around and I love seeing him play with her children. I had a family emergency one weekend and she had no problem keeping him for me until I got back in town. That was super huge because she does have a family, it was last minute, and a big ask. Definitely would recommend her services.”

About: Still on Puppy Duty and will probably be so through May 31. If you are a regular, please contact me directly and I will cover what I can. BONDED/INSURED and I guarantee my behavior in your home!!! Please check with any of my other clients. I love being video taped!!! Your home is just as safe as your pets! I’ve been the go-to girl for pet care in my extended family, friends, neighbors and even within my church for decades. I’ve helped puppies being born and taken care of seniors who needed medication. I work from home and set my own schedule so your pet can have my complete attention. For walks, I do the route most comfortable with your dog and I always pickup droppings and put into outdoor containers. For Drop-In Visits, what is comfortable for your animal is what I do. We can do playtime or just feed/water/love. Puppies can use me for mountain climbing and senior dogs find me a restful friend. I work with cats as well as dogs and am not afraid of keeping a litterbox clean. Please be aware I am working with a puppy daily for the next 3 months. If you are a regular customer, I will try and work you in for drop-ins or walks but I’m am very limited on what I can do. Please contact me if need me before May 31 when he will be out off puppy quarantine. Also, if you have any tentative travel plans this year, please let me know as soon as possible. I hate turning people down but I already have bookings in September and November. I will be glad to block out dates while you firm up your plans if I have worked with you and your pets at other times. Thank you!😊 My work zone is limited - I try to only take jobs within a ***3 MILE radius of CEDAR LANE*** - so I can focus on each pet instead of driving all over the place. If you ask any of my regulars, you will find I can (and have been) called in on an emergency with no hesitation. I only take 1 drop-in a day and 1 walk on days I have puppy or 3 drop ins and 2 walks on my ‘free’ days. I will book as far as 12 MONTHS in advance if you need me. I work my schedule around your pets. I work around CNU, Sedgefield, Hilton Village and Riverside. If you are not sure, please drop me a message and I will get back to you promptly. If you have any questions, give me a call or text me. You are not the only one who must be comfortable with me. Thank you. For clarification - Drop-ins and walks are scheduled between 9 am and 8pm. House/Pet sittings can be during the day or an overnight stay. Usually, Day shift is 9am to 5 pm but I am willing to work with you as your schedule requires. Overnight stays are usually 8-10pm as needed to 8am. Please ask if you need a different schedule during reservation, if I know in advance, I’m glad to work with you and your pet(s). Hope this helps, I’ve gotten a lot of questions lately. 😉 This is my job and I love it. Meeting and spending time with new animals is a joy and a privilege. I'm building my business through word of mouth so you have all my attention. Let me be of help. I answer text/calls between 9am and 11pm unless I am driving, working with someone, or out of town. My sleep-in day is Monday if I do not have furry friends to visit so if I'm slow to answer, its because I'm covered in my dogs and cannot move. (They are little but insistent.) I WILL respond to every request even if you are not in my zone. But I cannot respond while working or at church. You and your furry family are important to me, please let me prove it. I'm always willing to do drop ins and walks. I love doing house sitting stays as it lets your pet be comfortable in his/her own space and keep to their schedule. I will follow your rules meticulously! Please feel free to contact anyone I have worked with, I'm very proud of the reviews I've been given. I will work with you and your pet to get the same happy review. I limit my work area so I spend more time with your pet and not traveling. Overnight covers a 10-12 hour period such as 8 pm to 8am.

“Casey agreed to hold doggy daycare at his place last minute for my foster dog Loki, while I had to work. Tons of pictures were sent and I could tell he had a bunch of fun with his new boxer pal! Very accommodating and a great place for dogs to hang out and release all the pent up energy. Highly recommend, and will definitely re-book in the future! Thank you, Casey and Carly!”


11. Gyllian C.

“Gyllian was FANTASTIC! She did a great job watching our 13 week old puppy. Watching a small puppy is no easy task, and it didn't seem to phase her one bit. She was super easy to work with and super understanding and supportive of our potty training goals. I would highly recommend her for any of your sitting needs.”

17. Jamie G.
“Where do I even begin?! Jamie was/is such a wonderful, gentle and attentive sitter! I am in the AirForce had to leave for a short TDY to Japan (kind of like a deployment but only for 2 weeks). She watched my boy Simba (German Shepherd/Rottweiler mix). He is usually a rowdy dog to other sitters and has a slight nibbling issue. I DONT KNOW WHAT MAGIC TOUCH SHE HAS but he was so calm with her and did NOT try to bite her once! When I came back he looked like he gained about 1/2 pound of muscle mass too because Jamie took him on longer walks than I do! She came to my home twice a day for 1 week then I had a small leak at my house and so I asked if Simba could stay at her home for the last week that I had to be gone and she graciously agreed. Simba seemed to like her home more than he likes his own! Jamie has a really nice fenced in backyard with about half of an acre to roll around in. She also has a baby gate that separates the kitchen from the living room so that Simba could not get into anything he wasn’t supposed to. Lastly, she even has a large doggie door installed in the kitchen area as well so that Simba could go in and out of the house as he pleased which is awesome and definitely something that I will be installing into my house soon! She is a fantastic sitter, she handles her dogs with so much care, and she probably took and sent me more photos of Simba in the two weeks that I was gone more than the photos that I have taken of him for an entire year! (of course I am not proud of that statement, but this is just an example to show truly how amazing she is and I am glad she is applying for a job like this because I truly believe she is the perfect fit!)”


18. Robin P.
“I cannot recommend Robin highly enough for her exceptional skills with both dogs and cats. Her deep understanding of animal behavior is evident in the way she interacts with them, always showing patience and compassion. Whether it’s training a rambunctious puppy or soothing a nervous cat, Robin approaches each situation with expertise and care. Our pets adore her, and it’s clear they feel safe and loved in her presence. If you’re looking for someone who truly understands and connects with animals, Robin is the perfect choice.”




19. Josephine M.
“I have used Josephine for several years and she is the best! Always reliable and dependable, and the doggies lover her. She always goes above and beyond and normally sends a cute pic or video of your pet playing or having fun while they are in her care. She is definitely go to person for pet sitting.”
