“Leaving a second review for Molly to say she was wonderful once again and went above and beyond to accommodate us while our flight home got delayed! She was able to stay with our pets last minute, and I cannot express how much we appreciated this during a stressful time.”
“Sydney did a fantastic job being with our dog, Della. She shared comments with us while we were gone. This made us feel confident that the care she provided was important to her. We would definitely ask Sydney to care for our dog again! Thank you.”
“Phillip did a great job watching my doggo. He sent photos and updates which helped ease the separation. One photo was so funny I am printing it for my office desk. He left the house exactly as it was and I absolutely would rebook for our next trip.”
“Lydia did a wonderful job taking care of my 2 doggos and my cats tonight. When I came back all pets were happy and doggos clearly had had a lot of fun! Thank you so much Lydia and hope to benefit again from your help in the future! Cheers, Melanie”
“Lilly was completely responsible and attentive the entire time. She kept us updated regularly, sent us photos of Blas, and replied to our messages quickly. She not only took great care of him but also spoiled him with love and attention. We definitely recommend her and will trust her again in the future.”
“She was very sweet always sending pictures of our fur babies. She kept them active and loved so they wouldn't worry about where we were. We recommend her highly and will be our go to in the future!!!”
“Karina took excellent care of our cat, dog, and home! Our dog is fairly nervous, and our cat required medication but Karina handled it all with patience and care and kept us updated with photos and texts throughout the weekend. We’ll definitely be reaching out next time we need someone to look after them!”
“Laura’s care for our pup was above and beyond- from protecting him from another aggressive dog, to an additional full day of care with storms and tornadoes blowing through when our flight was cancelled was a relief to the frustrating travel plans during our return home and a welcome calm while we were away. Laura will be our first call for our next bout of travel plans! Thank you Laura!”
“Katlin did an absolutely amazing job taking care of our doggy and catties. She was very communicative, took notes during meet and greet, and let us know whenever she needed to step out to know exactly what to expect! And she even took the time to clean the area at the end of the week! Definitely would love to have her watch our pets again.”
About: I am able to administer any medications that are needed and I have experience with both senior animals and extremely young animals! I can’t wait to meet your furry friends! I am available anytime just message me! I don’t have much going on other than taking care of all my animals so I have plenty of time throughout the week. Safety and trust are my number one priorities so if their are specific things you need or want to be done to ensure your animals safety please don’t hesitate to let me know!
“Mara did a wonderful job house sitting and caring for our dog and cat while we were away for a weekend. She stayed in touch and sent a few pictures to let us know how they were doing and when she'd be heading out on the final day. Highly recommend and look forward to having her house sit and care for our pets again!”
About: I have had dogs and cats of my own for my entire life. I have taken care of my friends and family's dogs routinely and love to snuggle with them. I currently work full time M-F but I have flexibility during the day if needed. I just love animals and they are a really important part of my life, so if I am able to help someone else out who needs it I would feel honored. I will care for your fur baby as if it were my own. I just lost my black lab and am really missing having a dog.
“Amanda was a godsend when our house sitter cancelled last minute. We met her first then her with her dog, Sedona, and I knew right away this would work out really well. You see my dog, Millie, doesn’t warm up to people easily and doesn’t always play nice with other dogs but Millie instantly liked both of them. Amanda stayed at our house along with Sedona, so Millie was spoiled having her two new friends stay with her. They went on many walks and Amanda sent me lots of pictures while we were gone. I will definitely use Amanda again!”
About: I’ve had dogs my entire life, I don’t remember a time without them. I have worked with a lot of animals that needed medications for healthcare problems. I do currently work a full time job and a volunteer job but I am looking to expand my horizon and spend more time with animals. My pets have a fenced in yard at home, I do also have a barn that I love to take the dogs out to to run at.
“Rhandee did a great job with our pups and was very responsive. She took the time to come meet our dogs prior to our trip, which was super appreciated. We would definitely book her again!”
“Amber was able to watch my two dogs at my home with very short notice. She was very responsive, kind, and easy to work with. I came home to two happy pups after a weekend away and will definitely be using her again in the future.”
