Lisa is a great sitter! Our puppy Winnie adores her and she does really well with communicating. I would definitely recommend her to anyone needing their dogs watched.

2nd time I used her for my cats drop in visits. She did an amazing job and always keeps me updated on how they are doing. She also has been great about trying to socialize my cats who are scared of anyone who isn’t me!

About: I have taken care of dogs for over 5 years. This and caring for my own dog has taught me how important patience, consistency, and attention are when it comes to pet care. I am comfortable with dogs of all sizes and personalities, and understand that every dog has different needs. I make it a priority to keep owners updated and reassured! I am currently working part-time, so I have plenty of time to give your dog the attention and care that they need! I will be completely transparent with my schedule, while also making sure that your dog is a priority. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I focus on keeping their routine as normal and stress-free as possible. I make sure dogs get plenty of exercise, attention, playtime, and bathroom breaks while also respecting the owner’s instructions and household rules. During walks, I prioritize safety by using secure leashes, staying aware of surroundings, and making sure pets are comfortable and hydrated. I always treat clients’ homes with respect, keep the environment clean, and provide updates and photos so owners feel confident their pets are in good hands!

Kristina is an excellent pet sitter!! If we need services for our cat (Oliver) again, she will be our first contact! She went above and beyond to help us and care for Oliver by being flexible and accommodating as needed. Kristina is easy to work with, responsible and communicates well. Thank you Kristina!! Oliver looked great and was so happy when we returned from our trip! He misses you already!

Please reach out with any questions or concerns, I’m more than willing to communicate! I’m working part time so I have plenty of availability to take care of pets! I’m more than willing to communicate and negotiate scheduling. I have a fenced in backyard with only a cat at the moment. My cat is harmless and very gentle.

About: I have had pets my whole life! I have experience with cats, dogs, horses, chickens, fish, frogs, turtles, and small furry critters such as hamsters and rabbits. I Have cared for new born puppies and kittens when the mother was not able and elderly pets that need a little extra love. Pets that are very energetic or relaxed. Pets that are having a hard time medically and need fluids or pain medications. I have cared for wounded animals and healthy ones. I'm available most days during work hours. When your fur baby needs love and care during the day while you are away I can be there for pets, walks, snacks, medications, a simple check in and more. Every animal is it's own self and all need different care. When pet sitting while friends or family are at work or on trips I always make sure the pet has a good long session of play, affection, walk or forms of exercise, clean and full water and food dishes. Check for any accidents that need cleaned up or litter boxes that need tending. Then always be sure to double check the yard and home locks are secure before leaving.

Karen was absolutely amazing! Our kitty isn't a fan of people but Karen was patient and kind. By the last day, Fern even let Karen pet her. Karen also went above and beyond and sent lots of pictures. We will definitely have her back.

Sarah did a great job watching Luna. She made sure to get to know Luna before her visit by asking a lot of questions. Sarah communicated well during the visit and sent several pictures. I felt comfortable that Luna was in good hands while we were away.

About: I have owned and cared for dogs for over 20 years. They always become part of my family while they are with me. Whether it is my own dog or ones I am caring for, walks, dog park, brushing and playing are part of the daily routine. From little ones like Chihuahuas to large breeds like German Shepherds, I love them all! My pet sitting experience includes caring for elderly pets and those that need medication or special diets. My availability is open and includes weekends and holidays. Currently I am EMT certified and am pending pet First Aid & CPR training. When your pet is in my care you will have one less thing to worry about because they will be in good hands!
