I had a great experience with Chunli! She was incredibly considerate of my home and treated it with the utmost respect while caring for my dog. I truly appreciated the thoughtful daily updates and photos — it was so reassuring to see how well taken care of my pup was while I was away. I could tell she went above and beyond to make sure both my dog and my home were in great hands.

About: As a flexible college student looking for summer work, I have a schedule that allows me to dedicate reliable time and attention to the pets I care for. I have 3 years of professional pet sitting experience, caring for pets with a wide range of routines and medical needs. I’ve cared for dogs/cats from just a few months old to senior age, requiring extra patience, monitoring, and specialized care. I’m experienced administering oral medications, eye and ear medications, and topical treatments. I’m comfortable following detailed care instructions to make sure pets stay safe, healthy, and comfortable. Along with my professional experience, I’ve also owned and cared for dogs, cats, and horses throughout my life. I genuinely love animals and do my best to care for every pet with the same attention and love I would want for my own pets. Pet care has always been a natural part of my daily life. I’ve owned and cared for a dog, six different cats, a horse, and rodents throughout my life. I’m very used to managing feeding schedules, exercise, grooming, cleaning, playtime, and giving animals consistent attention and care every day. As a college student not taking classes over the summer, I have a very flexible schedule that allows me to prioritize pet care throughout the day. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I do my best to keep their routine as normal and comfortable as possible by providing plenty of attention, affection, playtime, and walks. I truly try to care for every pet like they’re my own so they feel safe and loved while their owners are away. I’m also very respectful of clients’ homes and leave them as clean, or cleaner, than I found them while carefully following all care instructions.

Eli is the best! He is a great communicator and sends pics of your pets having fun. He follows care instructions. We have him stay at the house. When we return the house is always cleaner then we left it. Our animals water is full and the kitty litter clean upon our return. Book him quick, his schedule fills up!

Eliza was amazing with Hamachi. We recently adopted him and he has some separation anxiety. We wanted to go to a concert and it was our first time leaving him with a sitter. From the moment Eliza sat with him, he seemed at ease. Eliza is very personable, easy going, and caring. We enjoyed our date night knowing Hamachi was in good hands. We were running a little late coming home and Eliza stayed with him until we got back and was very flexible about it.

Martinique was a wonderful dog sitter! She stayed overnight several days with our dog Joy. She kept us updated on how Joy was doing with texts, videos, and pictures. Joy gets nervous when we are not around and Martinique was patient with her. We felt very comfortable having her watch Joy. We will definitely be asking Martinique to watch Joy again!

About: I've taken care of aggressive dogs, dogs with special medical needs, and everything in between. I am reliable, communicative, and I love being with animals. As a teacher, I get summer vacations, so I have a free schedule to devote to petsitting. I'm available on weekdays and weekends, for short or long periods. I have experience taking care older dogs, and I'm also comfortable around dogs with behavioral problems. In every case, I'm attentive to the animal's needs.

Leah was the dog whisperer we so needed to care for our elderly, anxiety ridden, blind, fuzzy child. Her prior booking meet and greet was critical to the success of the care she gave. In addition, her training as a Vet Tech gave us additional comfort for the special needs our dog requires. Patient, understanding, compassionate and dependable. Leah will be the top of our list for any future dog sitting needs.

They were calm and content upon our return, which is how I know they were truly cared for. I highly recommend Kelly to care for your pets!!!

What a blessing to find Sophia. She went over and above taking care of our anxious, clingy dog for 12 days. Photos were sent daily along with updates and upon our return home, the house was exaclty as we had left it and our dog looked fantastic. Book Sophia if you can however do not book her when we need her😂

Sandra was absolutely incredible during our recent overnight trip. From the moment we got home, I could tell the boys were beyond happy — relaxed, loved, and completely themselves. And somehow, her sweet pup Koko and my dogs are now officially best friends. She took care of everything so seamlessly it felt like she had always been part of our routine. I came home after a long work trip to a spotless house, clean sheets and towels, and very content pups. I was honestly in heaven. The boys are definitely missing Sandra and Koko today. 💛 If you’re lucky enough to book her, you’ll understand exactly how we feel. She gets off-the-charts stars from me — huge thank you, Sandra! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Marie took on a big order to support our furbabies. Marie stayed in our home with our new puppy, very geriatric dog, and our sweet husky. Plus 2 cats. What she provided was support for a family healing post breast cancer, caring for her furfamily in very challenging stages at the same time. We were provided beautiful videos, kind and compassionate words, that eased the stress to allow her healing. We are so grateful to Marie.

She did a tremendous job taking care of my GSD while staying overnight at my house. She kept me up to date with how my dog was doing and I felt at ease knowing she was in good hands. Will certainly reach out to Christi next time we are in need.
