Mercedes is wonderful with Winnie! She keeps me up to date on their visits and makes sure there’s fresh water in the bowl so I don’t have to worry about it when I get home. She also makes sure all Winnie’s toys are picked up after they’re done playing. It’s these little things that make such a difference and I love knowing Winnie is well taken care of when I’m at work. Thanks, again!!

Rachelle was so great! She provided excellent care for our cat and gave me excellent updates. Even when our cat was not the most behaved, Rachelle handled it well and let us know right away. I would definitely use her services again!

Cierra was very easy to work with. She showed up at the agreed upon specified time and dates and took care of both of my dogs. Both pups were safe and sound when we returned home from our trip. We would absolutely book with her again.

Ana did several drop in visits to check in on on my kitten while I was away for a week and a half. She was professional and caring. I felt peace of mind knowing that my cat's well-being was in Ana's capable hands. Great communication and also cleaned up any messes that my cat left behind. Would def hire her again!!

I was lucky enough to have Georgia take care of my two cats over spring break. They did a great job feeding them and cleaning up after them. My cats were happy and glad to have someone as great as Georiga watching after them. Georgia is kind and compassionate and has a great work ethic that I admire. I would definitely recommend them as a pet sitter.

Kelina was awesome! Extremely communicative, patient, and conscious of all of our pups' particular needs. She's an absolute professional with plenty of experience which definitely shone through. The pups seemed to warm up to her very nicely. We're excited for her to come back by again for our next trip out of town.

Gabrielle is an upstanding animal lover. She is kind, patient, and can have a firm hand when necessary. Watching her pup cuddle up to her is like watching the best Showtime movie. My dog would be thrilled to go for a jaunt with her, if we lived close! Let Gabrielle take your pup on an adventure. I promise he/she will have the time of their life!

About: Not only have I grown up around dogs all my life, but I have gone to dog training classes and can use these experiences ensure the well-being of your pets. I am also experienced with giving medicine to animals and am comfortable doing so if needed. I have a car and am working part-time, so my schedule is very flexible. I have plenty of time to devote to the needs and care of your pets. I believe it is important to establish trust with the pets. I like to meet the animals at least once before I care for them so that they will be more familiar with my presence.

Trust Brandi implicitly with our yellow lab; she’s been walking him daily since he was little and we didn’t hesitate to leave her to dog sit at our house when we were out of town.

About: I have years of experience dog and cat sitting! I love animals and I have two labrador retriever puppies of my own! I also have a kitten! I am currently in college but with a minimal class load so I have a ton of time to take care of your pets! My dogs love to go to the dog park every day and play frisbee so that is also part of our routine! I have two friendly lab puppies to keep your dog company! I have a crate if your dog needs to sleep there at night! Otherwise our puppies normally sleep in bed or on the couch!

I'm so happy Esther is choosing to do this! She loves animals and I remember volunteering with her at the humane shelter a while ago, and the staff would always light up when she walked in. It's because she is so good with the dogs! She's also watched my dog a few times at her house, and he always loves it! I would highly recommend her!
