“Blair did a great job attending our two kitties for a 7 day vacation! He dropped by twice a day for 30 minutes- gave the cats food, treats, cleaned their litter and played with them! He was very responsive and sent us pictures and videos of the cats daily. It was my first time leaving my babies, but Blair helped to assuage my guilt of leaving them, by taking care of them so well! I would hire Blair again for our next vacation. Thanks so much Blair!”

When I come to a client’s home to watch pets I typically bring my lunch, iPad, and sketchbook.

Trenair R.
“I highly recommend Trenair R. to be one of your dog sitters. Without a doubt you will feel at ease when you meet Trenair because the love she has for dogs. The calmness of her voice immediately will let you know that is the tone she will have with your dog, while in her care. She will be attentive and loving to your pet. Just know her years of experience with dogs makes her capable of leaving your pet with her and know your dog is being loved the entire time. Trenair is very attentive , observant and responsible when it comes to your pets needs. She will respect your instructions of how you would like her to care for your dog. Trenair had a dog named Kody and every time I was around, Kody would latch on to Trenair as if she was the only one in the room. He adored her and was always following her as if she was the only one that would love on him like he wanted. Please don’t hesitate when making a decision of who you want to represent your company as one of the best dog sitters .Trenair R. is perfect for this job.”

Faith A.
“Faith's ability to lovingly care for all creatures is evident in the way she cares for her own pets, which over the years has included guinea pigs, gerbils, several cats, aquarium fish and both large and small dogs. I've personally seen how well she has cared for animals in another's home, too. Anyone would be lucky to have her pet sit for their furry, finny, or scaley friends.”
