Ajna was so great with our cat Jeff, we can tell how quickly he took to her! We loved getting the photo updates, and Ajna was always on time. We even found that she had taken inside some unexpected package deliveries while we were away! We so appreciate that Ajna was able to look after Jeff over the holidays

As always, Cheryl is the best pet sitter! She cares for our 16 year old cat as though he is hers. She is prompt and thorough with his feeding and cleaning up after him. Excellent communication and I feel reassured each time I leave him in her care.

Megan helped us with our two dogs for Thirteen years. My husband and I had to travel for work often and depended on her while we worked from home to take care of our two pups when we could not. Megan was a blessing when my Dad was sick and always lightened the mood with her sense of humor. the dogs loved her so much they whined with excitement when her car pulled up. I consider her a friend and trusted dog sitter when I have needed her the most. She always brings a sense of humor and confidence to the door which is such a relief after having some very sketchy experiences.

Ryan responded quickly to my very very last minute request for drop in visits. Communication was excellent and my puppies were well cared for, calm, and comfortable when I got home. I received updates each night with pictures which helped me feel comfortable despite my nerves about the new situation. I'd recommend Ryan!

Honey is amazing at caring for pets, especially dogs. She's is very knowledgeable on training techniques and developing good behaviors so that dogs can be the best of companions. Whether it's long walks on leash, free roams at the beach, fetch in the dog park, or just tricks and games at home; Honey always ensures a dog is living it's best life. With our -somewhat challenging - Australian cattle dog she has worked wonders in keeping her obedient, entertained and most importantly tired out!

Carmelina is such a great character. She has such a great heart and cares about not only people, but all animals as well. She has been my friend for years and there have been countless times where she has taken my dogs on walks and treated them as her own. Any business would be so lucky to have her!

It’s readily apparent within moments of meeting Meagan how much of an animal lover she is. From the smallest (and sassiest) of pups to the big, slobbery dogs, Meagan is great with them all. She is always checking in on my Lily and has been so gentle as Lily came from a very traumatic situation and is slowly learning to trust people again. Meagan’s patience and calm demeanor gives me such peace of mind when I have to leave Lily. And to me, that’s invaluable.

About: I have had animals all my life. My mother was a veterinary technician and as a kid I often went to work with her and helped with the animals. I have owned my own dogs since the age of 19 and have seen them all through their entire lives. I currently have a 15-1/2 year old pup and I give her only the best care. I am very empathetic and can anticipate many dogs needs. I also have a lot of medical knowledge about dogs and am great in emergencies in case anything happens. My dog is resource-protective and leash reactive, so I have a lot of experience with that as well. I work from home so I have a lot of flexibility to be able to help others give their pets what they need when it comes to dog walks, love and companionship. Great for the busy working dog parent I will do whatever it takes to keep your dog safe, comfortable and happy. I can only watch dogs in your home, and will follow any rules you have set out for your doggo's care.

About: As a dog caretaker, I have a passion for caring for and nurturing furry friends. I have always had a deep love for dogs, and my years of experience in the field have taught me how to provide them with the best care possible. From feeding and grooming to exercise and playtime, I take great pride in making sure that each dog in my care receives the attention and love they deserve. One of the most important aspects of being a dog caretaker is understanding the unique needs and personalities of each individual dog. Whether it's a high-energy pup who needs plenty of exercise or a senior dog who requires extra patience and care, I am dedicated to providing personalized care for each dog in my care. I understand that every dog is different, and I always strive to create a safe, comfortable environment that meets their specific needs. In addition to my years of experience in dog care, I am also committed to ongoing education and professional development. I regularly attend seminars and workshops to learn about new techniques and technologies in the field, as well as to stay up-to-date on the latest research and best practices in dog care. I believe that ongoing learning is key to providing the best possible care for the dogs in my care. Above all, I am dedicated to providing a loving, nurturing environment for each and every dog in my care. Whether it's a quick check-in or a long-term stay, I take my role as a caretaker seriously and am committed to making sure that every dog receives the attention, care, and love they deserve. I believe that dogs are truly special creatures, and it is an honor to be able to care for them and make a positive impact in their lives. As a remote worker, my schedule can be unpredictable at times. However, I am committed to providing the best possible care for the dogs in my life, which is why dog day care is such an important part of my routine. By enrolling my furry friends in a reputable dog day care facility, I am able to ensure that they are receiving the socialization, exercise, and attention they need, even on days when I am tied up with work obligations. This not only benefits the dogs, but it also allows me to focus on my work with peace of mind, knowing that my pets are being well-cared for in a safe and nurturing environment. Additionally, dog day care provides a valuable opportunity for my dogs to interact with other dogs and people, which helps to promote healthy socialization and prevent behavioral issues. Overall, dog day care is a vital component of my schedule as a remote worker, as it allows me to prioritize both my work and my beloved furry companions. Having a fenced yard and providing constant supervision, coupled with love, is the ideal environment for dogs. A fenced yard provides dogs with the freedom to play and exercise in a safe and secure environment, while constant supervision ensures that they are always being looked after and protected from potential hazards. This combination of factors promotes both physical and mental health, as dogs are able to engage in their natural behaviors while also feeling secure and loved. Furthermore, the bond between a dog and their caretaker is strengthened through constant supervision and affection, creating a positive and trusting relationship. Overall, a fenced yard and constant supervision, combined with love, provides the best possible conditions for dogs to thrive and lead happy and healthy lives.

Krysta is an expert in her field and definitely my top choice when caring for my boy Louie. A few weekends ago my husband and I were going out of town and needed a sitter for two nights-mainly to drop in to feed and play with him. I have a ring door bell, so I'd see her come in and out and she was so punctual. Louie loves Krysta, sometimes with strangers he goes straight under the bed, but as soon as she walked in he was rubbing against her leg fully trusting in her. She made sure my boy was fed, pet, and loved for the weekend and I'm so grateful! Will definitely be using her again ASAP :)

About: As an experienced pet sitter with a lifelong passion for dogs, I offer a unique blend of genuine care and dedication. Having spent a lifetime taking care of my own pets and having a long history of watching friends' and family's dogs has given me a great deal of knowledge about the needs and behavior of dogs. I take great satisfaction in providing each animal buddy in my care with a loving and stimulating environment, putting their happiness and well-being first. Your pet will get the care, affection, and company they need from me, all catered to their unique needs and personality. Pet care seamlessly fits into my weekly routine due to my flexible schedule. With no other job commitments and short classes on weekdays, I have plenty of time to babysit dogs almost every night and take them on walks during the daytime. I am available Monday-Sunday and on some holidays. I adore animals! Any shape or size! 🐩 I promise to always ensure a safe environment for your pups 🐶 I am responsible, trustworthy, and more than capable to take on any task! 😊
