“Katherine is very attentive and bonds quickly with your pet. She has her own small dog who seems to welcome other pups. She offers an intimate setting with great yard space. I think the setting is great for medium to small dogs. She also offered daily updates and pictures that calmed our nerves. If she is available, I will bring my pup to her again. I think my dog learned a few things as well!”
“We were very happy with Ridley's stay at Candace's house. He had a medical issue pop up right before our trip and she took such good care of him. We received updates and photos almost daily, which ease our mind. We will definitely use Candace again to watch our dog.”
About: I have a fenced in yard and a 5 year old female husky who loves making new friends. I am a PE teacher so I'm home all day during the summer. I love dogs and I would treat your furry friend as if they were my own. I have the availability to take them on walks and let them out as much as necessary. I am happy to communicate with you and learn the needs of your pet. Would love to establish consistent work with the same dogs. Please consider me as your next dog sitter. I would be happy to talk with you and answer any questions you may have I stop home for lunch daily to let the dogs out, and then I'm home by 3 during the week. I have a fenced in yard so it's easy for me to let the dogs out, as well as take them for walks or hikes. I will cater to each dog's individual needs. My goal is to make your dog feels comfortable, because that's how I want to feel when I entrust my dog with someone.
“We were very pleased with the care our fur baby received while staying with Michelle and her family. She reassured me that our pup would be in good hand and sent us photos to ease our nerves about leaving her. She and her husband were wonderful!”
“Iman was awesome with my Oreo. She was very accommodating with my schedule. She sent plenty of photos for updates during his stay. I could tell he really enjoyed himself because she got him to get in the pool lol. Iman is a sweetheart. She sent Oreo home with a special treat of homemade food. I would definitely use Iman again.”
“Lynda is amazing. Asks good questions and puts forth extra effort to make sure Daisy is well taken care of. I’m so grateful to have found someone I can trust to be direct, manage expectations and keep my girl happy and healthy while I’m away. I keep coming back to Lynda because Daisy is happiest when she’s with her.”
About: I’ve grew up with family pets that were dogs from small to large.I also had/have Cats.I currently only own cats but in the near future would like to have a dog again.I know basic grooming such as clipping nails and bathing.Cats can be tricky to bathe but not really a problem. I’m a stay at home mom so I’m pretty much always available during the week/weekend unless something comes up to where I am unavailable for services. I give my pets the basic care and needs they should receive such as monthly coat brushing,Bi weekly nail trims and rarely if really needed bathing.
“Love Ana and her family they are always the best to my two furry babies. She takes excellent care and awesome pics them.

“Michele is a great sitter, and my dog will be coming back. My search is over. I love that I received pictures and videos each day that my Raine was with her. Michele walked Raine daily, played with her, and showed her plenty of love. Raine was happy and relaxed when I picked her up. Raine is not for everybody. Raine didn't even do any of the mischievous things that she does when she's with me. Michele calls herself a "Dog Whisperer," that she is!”

I really like Jennifer she made us feel comfortable with leaving leo with & her children providing regular update made me feel at easy Jennifer also took him on very short notice which was a blessing in disguise. When I came to pick leo up I spoke with her mom & that was definitely a cherry on top.
Jocelyn is hands down THE best pet sitter I could ask for. Jocelyn has taken care of my little pup I want to say close to 5 times now or maybe a little over and every time she is welcoming of us and always on top on communication. Sending videos and updates of lychee. Lychee gets so excited to see Jocelyn and her little pups and it shows me that lychee trusts her so much. If you haven’t worked with Jocelyn yet it’s a must Shes will take the best care for your fur baby!!!
