She’s amazing with dogs! She did house sitting and dog sitting for us. She had previously dog sat for our dogs and then we had her booked again, but then had some last minute big family changes and suddenly inherited 2 new dogs. With the big changes we had to switch around which dogs she watched for the week. She was extremely accommodating and understanding. Also, those dogs had been through some recent trauma and she worked so hard to build their trust and by the end of the week they were cuddling up and loving on her. Would highly recommend her services.

Stephanie was fantastic from initial booking thru to end. Great communication and planning as well as so kind with our dog. Chase was in good hands and has been waiting at the door for her since our arrival home. Could not have asked for a better caregiver.

Yhakerra was a wonderful dog sitter!! So happy with everything. The dogs were very happy when I returned home and our place was clean and tidy as well. She sent photos and videos, communicated daily, and did so many things above and beyond expectations for their care. I will definitely hire her again for future care.

About: I’ve been house sitting/pet sitting since I was around 17 years old. I have experience with puppies and senior dogs. I’ve watched dogs, cats, turtles, lizards, fish and more. I’m familiar with pee pads, crate training and dog diapers. I will always treat your animal with respect and kindness, showing them so much love while you are away. I’m currently not working so I would have plenty of time to be with your furbaby. I do volunteer work during the week but I would still have plenty of time to care and be with your animal. I can walk, play, snuggle, crate train and prepare meals for your animals. You just tell me what the preferred routine is and I’ll do my best to match that so your animal feels safe and loved.

About: I’ve helped care for animals for 8 years. I love meeting new fur babies and caring for them like they are my own. Happy to help! I work remotely from 8-5 but can come early mornings & late afternoons. I do get lunch breaks at 12 everyday so I can swing by for a feeding or quick walk. Weekends work for me all day typically! I will follow your instructions and care for them the way you need. If you leave some toys out I can make sure to allocate play time as well.

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life but currently where I live I can’t have one. Having an opportunity to love and care for another dog is the next best thing. I’m a mom and my daughter shares the same love for dogs because she’s seen it on my face. I cater to dogs because I love making them happy ! I’m great with walking them and playing fetch or what ever games they play. I have high patients and never rush dogs on their walks or playing times. I have no problems feeding dogs and bathing them if necessary. I am one of the biggest dog lovers and have never had a problem caring for them. I will promise that your dog will me very taken care of !

We recently had David dog sit for us, and he did a fantastic job! He came over the night before to meet our dogs and get familiar with their routine, which we really appreciated. It gave us peace of mind knowing he was thoughtful and prepared. While we were away, our flight ended up being delayed by almost five hours, and David stayed longer without hesitation to make sure our dogs were well taken care of. That kind of reliability and flexibility is rare and so appreciated. When we got home, it was clear the dogs were happy, calm, and well looked after. We’re very grateful for David’s care and would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking for a responsible and kind dog sitter!

About: With a natural kinship for animals, I intuitively gain their trust and make them feel at ease. I genuinely love animals,. My care goes beyond the basics—I go the extra mile to ensure they feel safe, loved, and understood. My schedule is flexible, I am on summer break and am home a great amount of the day. I do step out to go to the gym or the supermarket some days but other than that your pet will have plenty of my attention :) I provide them with all their needs and try to match their normal feeding schedule and walk schedule as closely as possible and treat them with lots of love, genuine care and connection, I also love practicing reiki on pets and helping to regulate their nervous systems

Eric was wonderful. I have an old ragdoll cat; he took great care of her - feeding, medication, grooming, cleaning her myriad litter boxes - for the two weeks I was gone. It gave me peace of mind to have him in the house. I am so glad I found him - I will definitely use his services next time I travel.

We had such a great experience with Christie watching our dogs, Kane and Rina! She was absolutely amazing from start to finish. She kept us updated the entire time with pictures, walk updates, and messages, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away.

Flower is THE pet sitter you are looking for! I have a new rescue who doesn't usually even let anyone in the house. I was very apprehensive about trying to get a way for a few days. Flower knew just how to get him to trust her when we did a meet and greet. I was shocked! When she arrived for her stay with him, he greeted her like a long lost friend. Flower is very conscientious. She followed my ridiculously detailed instructions precisely; asked thoughtful questions and is a pleasure to work with. I returned to a very happy pup and a home the way I left it. I couldn't recommend her more highly. Treat yourself (and your pet) to a carefree vacation.

Eric was an amazing sitter for Luna! We received daily updates of videos and pictures. It was the first time she wasn’t being taken care of by immediate family. Our girl is a fussy little eater but Eric was generously patient with our feeding requirement which needed boiled chicken on the daily. He walked and gave her all the play time she wanted. She got even more spoiled! He even ran out and got her extra Greenies and wet food when her supply ran out! We will definitely be asking Eric to watch her again when we can’t bring her with us. What a relief all around that we found such a great sitter!!
