Abby is so trustworthy! She takes good care of my elderly dog and all the younger pets as well. My older dog needs some special care and Abby is so willing to provide. She also takes great care of our house and we appreciate her!

About: Ive taken care of animals since before I can remember. All pets are given all the love I have to offer. I’m very gentle with older pets and always do my best to make sure they’re comfortable and pampered. I've got more free time on my hands than I know what to do with; so it would be no problem at all to take care of your pets! I make sure pets get regularly taken out, as well as making sure they’re happy and fed. I also get a little silly and play with them for hours!

Kassidy was a great house sitter for our dog, Delilah! She provided multiple updates/pictures and even took Delilah to her favorite place (the dog park) to burn off some energy. I would 100% recommend Kassidy.

Dom was great! Everything was perfect when we got home after 4 days. He sent a lot of pics of my 2 older cats. My scaredycat even liked Dom on the first day, which is saying a lot. Highly recommended, hope to use again!

About: I have been dog sitting for neighbors and friends for the last 5 years. I also have walked dogs while sitting, and done overnight stays with them. I truly love being with dogs and caring for them. I am currently a sophomore college student and have some days off of class. I love being active and truly love spending time with dogs, so I figured dog walking on my days off was the perfect way to spend them! If I was at a client’s home I would ensure the safety of their home and dog as my first priority. I would provide exceptional care to their dog, and also make sure to not disrupt anything within their home. I would take the dog out on a leash if there is no fenced in yard and make sure it had plenty of food and water.

Carissa was great - took great care of my 4-year old dog. He's absolutely my baby and she was so responsive to all of my requests for him. She sent me pictures and ensured he had a great time while I was gone. The trip was very last-minute, and I was sick in the lead-up. Carissa was flexible and responsive in scheduling a meet and greet with him. While I was away, she followed all of my requests and sent pictures so I could check in on him. Overall, she was excellent and I will absolutely be checking in with her the next time I'm out of town!

About: I have taken care of my own personal animals for about 6 years now (hence the years of experience), but I have also taken care of many other animals before living on my own! I have had experience giving diabetes medication to cats before (injection). I also have experience giving pills, ointments, and eye drops! I currently only have classes from 9:30am to 12:15pm Tuesdays and Thursdays. All other days I am completely free and available. I only ever go to college part-time so I have a lot of free time! I cannot house any pets unfortunately at my place, however I can make as many visits or keep as much company with your fur babies as needed!

About: I have taken care of many family and friends dogs. I treat them like they’re mine own. I go out of my way to make them feel happy. I’m retired so my days and evenings are open to care for your pets. My hours are very flexible. Time with your pet will be the best part of my day. I love to walk, so your dog will get as much walking in as he or she wants. Their schedule will be my schedule. There are lots of dogs in my neighborhood, so your fur baby will meet new friends.

About: My family has more than 20 years of pet care experience. We have also searched for boarding houses, so I know what pet parents want. A clean boarding house is good for the health of pets, and I clean and disinfect my house every day. My home is close to the park. We take them to the park every day. Exercise is good for the health of pets. I am a graphic designer and usually work at home, so I have more time for pet care. My daughter is a student right now at high school and after school, she can take them on a walk, so we have plenty of time to take care of them. I have a 6-foot fenced yard, also a whole basement for them. They can roam freely in the house, no smoking, and no little kids. I will check them every 2 hours to see if they need anything.

Arrived home to five very happy campers (3 cats and 2 dogs)! Charlotte stayed in my home with my animals which allowed them to be comfortable and happy in their own surroundings. She did a great job of taking care of them and kept me informed of their well-being. She also watered my plants, and brought in my mail. Being able to trust that someone would take care of my animals and my home while I was away made my trip so much more enjoyable. I will absolutely use her again!
