Ayla did a wonderful job watching our two large dogs over a holiday weekend! She left our home very clean, sent check ins consistently while we were away, and was so sweet to our pups! Very responsible and would definitely work with her again. Thanks, Ayla!

About: Raised on a farm and surrounded by animals my entire life, I’m confident caring for dogs of all breeds, abilities, temperaments and needs. I follow routines closely, provide plenty of exercise and attention, and always prioritize your dog’s safety and happiness. I’m available as early as 7am and as late as 9:30pm for walks, feeding, fresh water, playtime, and companionship. I work part-time, so my schedule allows for flexible visits throughout the day. Overnight stays are available when needed and can be discussed in advance. I provide care in my client’s home to help pets feel comfortable and secure in their familiar environment. I follow each pet’s normal routine closely, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, medication (if needed), and rest. I make sure they always have fresh water, a clean space, and plenty of attention and affection. I prioritize safety at all times by securing doors and gates, using leashes properly, and monitoring pets during walks and play. I keep the home tidy, clean up after pets, and treat every client’s space with respect. I also provide regular updates with photos and messages so owners can feel confident and at ease while they’re away

Anna took outstanding care of our three kitties while we were on vacation and our home was perfect upon our return. She sent frequent updates with pictures of our fur babies playing and being their goofy selves. The communication was excellent which allowed us to truly relax and enjoy our time away. Highly recommend her friendly, professional service.

About: I'm a professional pet trainer at a major retail chain. I've lived with a dog, cat, chinchilla, hamster, bird, or fish most of my life. I love fur babies and want help people when they need to be away from their beloved pets. Most recently, I helped sit a household with four elderly dogs with various medical needs. I have experience giving medications to dogs, as well as dogs with disabilities like blindness and deafness. Ideally with pet sitting, my wife and I would meet the dogs and/or cats before we pet sit to learn their specific needs, and learn where the food and treats hide. Depending on the pets and the weather, we like long hikes/walks and short trips around the neighborhood. You actually receive two pet sitters with me. My spouse will be home most of the time while I'm at work. I'm also a certified pet sitter with Pet Sitters International. I'm a full-time Pet Trainer at PetSmart, and my wife and I work together when petsitting, so she's there when I'm not. We work together and it's a team business. I like to learn the current routine of your beloved pet(s) and try to keep their routine for their comfort. I make sure I learn your house rules and will not let those puppy dog eyes persuade me to let them on the couch unless you say it is ok. I have my Pet First Aid Course and am taking other courses to increase my Pet Safety knowledge.

Ciara was tremendous! She met with us twice so our dog could get to know her better before she dog-sat at our home. She kept in touch with us throughout week and took good care of our pup (and our home). We’d definitely have her sit for us again in the future.

About: We live in a clean home, in a safe community. We have (1) yellow lab that would like a friend to play with during the day. Doggy door available, feed, clean, and walk the dogs, we do it all. We have a pool at another location that we would be happy to take a dog or two, if they like to swim. I currently work from home and have an endless amount of time to feed and throw toys. We have cameras around the home for added security. I have a fenced yard. Dogs are contained within the property, unless on a leash on a walk or on a car ride. Safety is our biggest concern. I work from home and have plenty of time to throw toys and play with the dogs. There is a doggie door and fenced yard to play in. I have a fenced/walled yard with a doggie door. We do not have a pool or anything dangerous in the yard. Dogs are allowed to come and go as they like, unless we are told different by you. We allow dogs on the furniture and in the beds if they like.

About: I absolutely love animals, l've been caring for dogs since I was 16. I've grown up with many dogs-looking after them from puppies to adulthood. Even my senior dog, who needed assistance in using the restroom and other tasks. I've taken care of dogs for family and friends. They rely on me to feed, bathe, play and care for their pets when needed. I am available most days of the week including weekends. I will do my best to accommodate your needs and I am willing to come to your home on short notice. I am able to keep your pet safe in your home and will listen to what your dog needs. I am able to crate your dog if that is what is needed.

MYA was absolutely tremendous! Leaving your fur babies with a stranger is not an easy thing to do, especially when you're far away on vacation. MYA made my girls feel like they were safe and protected. She sent me pictures throughout the day, and was very accomodating. I am grateful and thank you!

Awesome communication and attention to detail. We got lots of pictures and updates on our spoiled high maintenance dogs. We came home to healthy happy dogs. We have a mixture of big golden retriever, husky mix and tiny 2 1/2 pound Chihuahua so constant monitoring is necessary. One dog had a wound that had to be taken care of and is a picky eater both issues were taken care of and daily feedback given on our 4 day 3 night trip. I constantly worry when I leave my 2 1/2 pound Chihuahua, but with the communication and feedback I had a good time with no worries as I was updated and sent pics of a healthy happy dog. Highly recommend.

I couldn’t be happier with the care and attention Landon provided while looking after my home and dog. From the start, communication was clear and prompt, which gave me peace of mind. Landon followed all instructions perfectly, kept the house safe and clean, and went above and beyond to make sure my dog was happy and comfortable. I received regular updates and photos, which made me feel connected even while I was away. I highly recommend Landon to anyone looking for a reliable, trustworthy, and caring pet/house sitter. I will definitely book again!
