Beth was wonderful. She took the time to meet our crew in advance, she stayed in touch while we were gone and was flexible when we unexpectedly had our trip delayed a day. We plan to reach out again for any future pet sitting needs!

Our original sitter canceled the day before our trip, and we were so relieved that Brittany was available last minute. She arranged a meet and greet the same day we reached out and started the booking the very next day. She took amazing care of our two dogs and two cats while we were away for three days and sent regular updates. We’re so grateful and will definitely book with her again!

Gwen was absolutely wonderful with Chevy! She followed all instructions to a T, sent us tons of sweet updates and photos, and left our home spotless. Chevy was clearly happy and well cared for—we could tell he felt totally at ease. We’re so grateful for the love and attention she gave him and would welcome her back anytime!

Christina did a great job watching my dogs. We had a good meeting before I booked with her and I could tell right away how comfortable my 2dogs were with her. She texted me when she got to my house, sent pictures and texted again the next morning early to let me know the dogs had breakfast and had been outside. She confirmed both our meetings before I booked and confirmed the dog sitting as well which I really appreciated. I will definately use Christina again.

If you are looking for someone to stay in your home and give lots of love and care for your pet, Jillian is just wonderful and I would highly recommend!! What was unique about Jillian is that she stayed in our home the entire time. She followed all of my instructions, provided daily updates and pictures and when she left, she washed the linens and the home was clean and tidy. She may not be able to provide the fast, active walk with your pet, but she is fully capable to walk and play with your pet. I ended up booking another dog walker separately for a more active walk. This arrangement worked perfectly for me and worth the additional cost, as I would rather have my dog be with a loving sitter in my home where my dog was not left alone than having more dog walks. I will definitely be booking Jillian again! She was a joy to work with and I know she made my dog feel safe and loved. Thank you.

Sydney was a huge help for my family as we needed a sitter for Easter weekend. She visited my girls multiple times and ensured that they were fed. She made sure that they got plenty of time to play and eat treats and provided clear communication to us. I would like to note that I would have appreciated if she wiped the paws of the pups after coming from outside due to the odor. When we came home after the weekend there was a noticeable stench from this. Other than that great job Sydney. Thank you very much.

About: I have volunteered in many city and suburb shelters walking dogs of all sizes and providing cat enrichment. I have also grown up with dogs and have two cats of my own. All animals deserve the best life and I will treat your pet as my own aka spoiled!! I am flexible because I work from home, so feel free to reach out about any specific times and I can almost always make it work! I will give animals lots of attention, snuggles, play time, or whatever they prefer! I will make sure they feel taken care of and loved because I know I get sad about that when I am out of town away from my kitties!

About: I have always had pets in my life. All of them were cats, but as a career nanny I have spent time with dogs too. I work full day, 5 days a week as a career nanny, so my only available days are the weekends. I can come over to your house and sleep over if needed for dog sitting. I haven't done any dog sitting yet, but for the cats I can clean the litter box, replenish food and water and socialise with them for a while. I will follow any instructions left by the owner.

About: I have over 20 years of caring for animals of all kinds. I am very personal, caring, and will treat your animal with the love they deserve. I have a full time job Monday-Friday. I can walk your dog in the morning and play with them until I leave for work. After work we can play and enjoy what new outside adventures have in store! I have the ability to come to your home if that’s your preference. I am very schedule friendly. I have a big common area and a large park with a dog area. I’m close to a walking path or can just stay in home and play. I am very responsible and have over 20 years of experience. I have two daughters 11,8 that could help as well. They love animals.
