“Patricia was great with our older dog. He is a 13 year old lab and needed a little bit of special care to stay out of the heat. Patricia was very accommodating. She was also flexible when our start date to the trip changed a couple of times just before we left. Great dog sitter.”
“Taylor is absolutely fantastic and when we go out of town, we will have her watch our animals again as she was very reliable and was very consistent with communication which we really appreciated as we hate leaving our animals!”

About: I’ve taken care of many animals throughout my entire life. Since I was a baby, I’ve been around all sorts of animals. My love for animals has only gotten stronger since then. I like to learn all about them, and get better at caring for them. I do not have a job, so I have plenty of free time to take care of your furry companion! I am available almost throughout the entire day! I am able to house smaller animals in my home. Cats and small dogs will do just fine here, my dogs are friendly. If you are uncomfortable with having your small dog or cat near bigger dogs, then I have another place I can watch them at!
About: I've had a dog in my house one way or another since high school. I also have two dogs of my own who are very friendly and energetic. I can feed, water, walk, bathe and play with your best furry friend. Whatever your pet needs are, they will be met. I am currently a stay at home mom so I am home everyday, all day minus an errand or two every week. I have more than enough time to give your pet the care and love that is needed while your away. I have a decent sized fenced in back yard, with two very loving, energetic dogs to play with. I can either let the dogs all play or keep them separate for whatever time is needed. I am rarely gone so supervision is always guaranteed.
“Kety is wonderful! I would definitely recommend her for taking care of your pets. She handled my three dogs well. They were happy to see her each day and she took them on walks and played with them during her visits. She sent photos and assured me that the dogs were doing fine. I was very worried about leaving them for six nights. She was in contact with me each day to let me know what she was doing which really set my mind at ease. I am hopeful that she would be willing to do this again for me in the future!”

“Laresssa was amazing with our 2 dogs. She took extra time ahead of our trip to work with our one anxious/reactive dog so she could get comfortable with her. She took great care of both dogs and our birds while we were gone and gave us total peace of mind. We’d absolutely recommend her and would love to work with her again!”


About: I have taken care of pets since I was 8 years old. Whether bathing or going for a walk I will make their needs my priority. Family members have entrusted me with their pets care for decades. I will do the same for your furry family. We would go for a walk in the morning after breakfast and play fetch after lunch. Potty breaks every 2 hours and scheduled play time. I have 1 friendly dog and 1 loveable cat. We do not have a fenced yard but we have tons of open spaces for running and playing.

About: I've grown up around dogs my whole life. I've even helped deliver puppies! Family and friends have relied on me to check in on their pets, give baths, feed and groom their dogs. I only work on the weekends right now so I have plenty of time during the week to give your dogs the love and care they need. I am comfortable around dogs and very energetic. I can crate your dog if needed and take your dogs on lots of walks (and I'm very mindful of how hot/cold the ground is for them).
