“Elaine provided very thorough updates. Spent quality time with our cat. Seems to be a natural cat whisperer. Would definitely recommend and use Elaine again.”

“Victoria was so helpful and amazing with my teenage kitty. She sent so many fun pictures and it was clear that Cleo enjoyed having her around. Definitely snagging her for any time I go out of town! Thank you Victoria!!!”

“This is the second time we are using Sara’s service, so this review is for our previous experience as well as this experience with Sara as our cat sitter: Sara is not just a cat sitter, she’s a care taker in general. She would keep the place clean, spend time with our cat Titan, send us prompt updates with pics and vids of Titan. She communicates very well and is a very kind person. We left a list of things to do for Titan’s care - she went above and beyond. We trust her so much and she is the ideal person you’d leave your precious animals with. You can always count on Sara!”

“So grateful to have found Hadija to take care of Lily while my partner and I were away! She treated her with the utmost care and even brought her little toys which was so kind of her to do 🥹💖 Our home was spotless and well-taken care of as well. Hadija shared videos and photos frequently between meals/playtime and was very communicative/quick to respond. Was also so nice of her to help bring in some mail/boxes that had arrived while I was away. Lily can’t wait for her to return! ✨ I highly recommend Hadija’s services & will be booking again soon!”

About: My pet care journey has been a delightful rollercoaster of fur and fun! From Saint Bernard poodles to Maltese's, cute kitties and even my wiggly Corgis, I've had the pleasure of sharing my life with a diverse bunch of four-legged pals. Not only did I care for my own furry friends, but I also opened my heart and home to the pets of friends and family, offering drop-ins, baths, and becoming their temporary doggy B&B. Through it all, I've mastered the art of treat-toting and clicker-clicking, realizing that reinforcing good behavior and ensuring a tail-wagging experience is the key to a happy and harmonious life with your beloved pups. Pet care slots seamlessly into my daily and weekly routine, thanks to my flexible schedule. I work from home, which means that on weekdays, I'm readily available in the mornings starting at 8:30 am and until approximately 2 pm. Then, depending on my daughter's schedule, I can be there for your furry friends anytime after 6 pm. Weekends are typically wide open, making me available all day, though it can vary occasionally. And if you're in need of boarding services, I'm delighted to say I'm available throughout the while week. So, whether it's a quick check-in or a cozy overnight stay, I've got you and your pets covered! When it comes to caring for pets in my home, rest assured that your furry friend is in good hands. I have a vivacious 6-month-old corgi girl who loves to socialize and play, ensuring that your pet will have a companion for their stay. To ensure their safety and well-being, I've set up a doggy cam. And I always keep a watchful eye on all the dogs when they're out and about in my room. Additionally, I'm equipped with a mostly fenced yard and a secure rope set up with a chew-proof leash, granting your pup the freedom to run around and enjoy the backyard without any worry of them wandering off. Your pet's comfort and safety are my top priorities!

About: Hi there, My name is Nancy and I am 33 years old! I am a stay at home mom to three beautiful kids! I have had a lot of experience with dogs. My first pup was a cocker spaniel who suffered from epilepsy ... We had him for 16 yrs and was on meds for 12 of those years. He was the best pup ever and miss him greatly. I am experienced with giving oral meds to pups. After him, I had two smaller dogs (poms) and they were full of energy! At the current moment I have a 65 lbs Labradoodle named Canela! She is amazing and the best doggie ever!!! I have three kids who love dogs and enjoy having them in our home. Because of this I only watch 3-4 at a time! I will take your pup on 3-4 daily walks and provide enough outside time. I have a fenced in backyard and supervise them at all times! For your pup's stay I recommend you bring his/her bed or crate if they prefer that, food and water bowls, food and treats, leash and favorite toys that they may have. I am excited and hope to meet you and your pups soon :-) Have a Paw-fect Day! I am a stay at home mom and I am always home!
