Patricia was absolutely fantastic and took such great care of my cats while I was gone for a couple days. She sent daily updates and pictures, was super friendly and communicative, and ensured my cats were happy! I would highly recommend her services.

About: Ever since I was 8 I've been responsible for caring and training many pets and dogs of my own. I've dogsat for multiple neighbors all the way through college and after. I'm a huge dog lover and will go to great lengths to care for your pet. I’m a college film graduate working part time. I spend as much time as I can outside or surrounded by animals. I live with a malshi dog, cat and my husband’s rat terrier mix. I'm kind of a dog nerd so chances are I've already read up on your breeds specific qualities. I'm friendly and love to be active whether it's running on a hiking trail or playing catch in the yard with your furry friend. Let's get in touch and I'll try my best to help you in any way I can. Thank you for your time, CJ (: I’m currently working part time so I have plenty of time to play with your pups! I am available for boarding every day of the week except Sundays I have a large backyard and two friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate your small - medium dog if needed

Alyssa did drop in visits for my two cats. She was great with them, getting my shy one out of hiding to socialize. I would definitely recommend her for future work.

About: I'm a lifelong animal lover with years of hands-on experience caring for pets for friends, family, and neighbors. I'm comfortable with puppies, senior pets, and as a college athlete, great with active dogs and can provide plenty of exercise and attention. I'm also dependable, communicative, and happy to provide references. I also enjoy sending photo updates!! I'm a college athlete home for the summer, so I have a very flexible schedule and lots of free time during the week and weekends. I love being active, going on walks, and spending time with animals, so pet care fits perfectly into my daily routine. I'm excited to give pets plenty of attention, exercise, playtime, and care throughout the summer. I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while in my care. I have a dog of my own, so I understand the importance of patience, attention, and sticking to routines. During walks and check-ins, I'll make sure pets get plenty of exercise, playtime, cuddle time, and attention while also keeping their environment clean and secure. I'll always follow any instructions provided to make sure each pet is happy and comfortable.

About: Animals have always been a huge part of my life, and caring for them is something that brings immense joy to my heart. I have years of experience with dogs, cats, birds, and reptiles, and I’m comfortable with pets of all sizes and energy levels. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or just a calm and comforting presence, I’m happy to meet their individual needs. I’m reliable, communicative, patient, and treat every pet like they’re my own. I adore each and every furry face I meet, and I know they’re more than pets. They’re family, and they deserve all the love in the world. I can’t wait to love your baby like my own! Pet care fits very naturally into my routine because spending time with animals is something I genuinely enjoy. My schedule is flexible, which allows me to give pets plenty of attention, walks, playtime, feeding, medications, companionship & cuddles throughout the day. I’m happy to work with each pet’s normal routine to help them feel comfortable and cared for while you’re away! I always prioritize making pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while in my care. I carefully follow each owner’s instructions regarding feeding, medications, walks, routines, and house rules because I know every pet has different needs and comfort levels. I’m attentive, patient, and communicative, and I’ll always treat your pets and home with the same care and respect I would want for my own. I love to take lots of pictures and share them with pet parents while they’re away so they know their babies are safe and happy. No matter what the request may be - I simply want to make you and your pet feel as comfortable as possible until you return!

About: animal lover here! I grew up in a household with dogs and have been caring for dogs from high energy puppies to gentle seniors. I treat every dog like my family, making sure they get plenty of cuddles, walks, and their own attention. I am patient, observant, diverse, and will maintain your dogs routine to keep them happy and stress free. Your dogs safety is my top priority. I’m working full time, so truthfully I can make time for different types of schedules as needed. I can work weekdays from early mornings to 6:30pm. Weekends I can work early mornings and early afternoons, but unfortunately I cannot work Sundays. It is clean animal friendly with plenty of room for smaller dogs, gates blocking stair entrances and items out of reach for pets. I do have my own pet who is small and friendly and can be separated from yours if needed. My clients home will be treated with care, following routine instructions, and will keep you updated with everything.

About: I used to have a successful pet-sitting business where dogs could stay at my house overnight, instead of being stuck in overnight kennels. I had regular clients, but had to end it because I was in high school and doing other extracurricular activities. I've had dogs since I was a small child. They are my family and I would do anything for them. Knowing how much my dogs mean to me, I will treat other's dogs like I would my own. My schedule is very flexible and I have reliable transportation. I think it's very important to make sure dogs are comfortable, happy, and given the care each individual dog requires. Having the opportunity to work with dogs would be something I would love to do- it wouldn't feel like work.

About: My name is Caila, and I have been a pet owner for over 20 years. I am also a veterinary technician, so not only do I love animals, but I can provide them with the safest care possible. I have been walking dogs and pet sitting since I was ten years old, and in addition to that I can trim nails, give baths, take pets to and home from vet visits and more! As I know a lot about animal health and well being, I can also make recommendations as far as skin and coat supplements and allergies. my schedule can be very busy, but also usually flexible, as I am also a full time pre-veterinary student in addition to working full time as a technician.

Kathryn was amazing with my two dogs! I am a very nervous dog parent with leaving my dogs with someone while away but I had an upcoming trip. I found Kathryn and had a meet and greet with the dogs before hand. She made me feel comfortable leaving my dogs in her care! My building lost power during me being away and she kept me updated on that as well as making sure the dogs were okay. She sent updates and photos of the dog on each drop in! I would definitely recommend Kathryn to anyone looking for someone to watch their pets and will use her in the future!

Amber did an excellent job taking care of my dog and 2 cats. My dog is diabetic and requires insulin injections twice a day plus several other medications as well as a special diet. My two cats are finicky eaters and will only eat what they want. Amber handled the medications and special diets like a pro and kept me up to date in great detail while I was away. She took care of my babies like they were her own and that made me feel very stress-free being away from them. I would highly recommend Amber and will definitely use her in the future.
