“Bailey is great at taking of both my dogs. She is responsible, communicates well, and able to follow instructions! Will definitely put my babies in her care again!”
“Lori did an excellent job. I returned home to very happy, well cared for pups. I would recommend and book Lori again if she is available to take care of my pups while I am away. I have also already recommended her to family & friends.”
“Jaymes was fantastic! His communication both before and during the stay was excellent - very clear and timely. He spent a lot of quality time with our two pups, kept them on their usual routine, and sent photos and videos frequently, letting us know our boys were doing well. We came home to two happy and relaxed dogs and a home that was well taken care of in our absence and just as we left it if not better. We will absolutely book with Jaymes (and Jude!) again!”
“Magnolia did a stay to take care of our cat & dog for just over a week. We came home to two happy and healthy furry children. This was our first time using a service rather than a recommendation for a sitter from a friend and Magnolia quickly put us at ease when she came over to meet everyone before the stay. She's very nice, responsive and I could see they & the house would be in capable hands. We'd definitely reach out to her again.”
“Kyler and Hannah were amazing in home sitters for our 3 dogs and 2 cats while we went out of town! We received lots of picture updates while away and any concerns we had were addressed promptly by Hannah and Kyler! Our pets loved them and it gave us peace of mind while across the country. We will definitely be booking with Hannah and Kyler again!”
“Taylor was very attentive to my senior Maltipoo and did an fabulous job of tidying up the house - without being requested to do it! I will use her again, for sure.”
“We felt totally at ease leaving our 2 dogs in her care at our home. Our dog Oscar can be very shy and timid around new people, but I felt as though he warmed up to her quickly. We will definitely re-book in the future.”
“I am so happy with Ashley! She was amazing and I can just tell the amount of love she has for animals. I have a lot of anxiety leaving my big boy Washington but had almost none knowing he was in Ashleys care. She sent so many photos and updates! We will rebook her in a heartbeat!”
About: Growing up on a farm in Coldwater, MS, I learned to take care of many different animals from a young age. To this day, animals continue to have a huge part in my heart and life. I will usually be free all day, every day. I’m a licensed freelance hairstylist, and am in charge of my own schedule. I take care of my own 4 animals at my home daily. I am well experienced in pet care for multiple animals. I’m able to provide daily care for any and all needs for your fur babies. I have 2 dogs, a cat, and a bunny. I intend to care for your fur babies as if they were my own.
About: I have always been a huge pet lover and have owned many different pets from dogs to pigs. I have many people who trust me to bathe, walk, and keep their dogs. I hope to see your puppy next! I am currently a student at UTHSC for Dental Hygiene so anytime after 3-5 in the weekdays I am available and always available on the weekends!!! I always treat peoples dogs the way i would want my dog to be treated. If i’m dog sitting I will give the best care for your dog and that goes for walking and checking in on the dogs as well
“Arika was a wonderful dog and house sitter. She cared for our 3 dogs while we were out of the country and she made us feel completely at ease. We hope to have her back again and again!”
