This is the 4th time we have used Carolyn to help care for Clove on long days we have been away from her. When I booked this visit it was kinda last minute to schedule. Carolyn was so accommodating. You can tell how much she loves animals. Carolyn is so amazing making sure Clove is well taken care of on her walks and before she leaves the house, making sure Clove has plenty of water and food.

Chose Doug to drop in on my two pups a couple times yesterday evening. Before the night he was needed, we had a meet and greet. Doug was very thorough in his questions and I felt extremely confident in choosing him to look after my dogs. All in all, he did a great job & I look forward to have him help us in the future.

Megan did a great job watching our 2 dogs and my daughters 2 dogs. She spent extra time with them, to make sure that they had their potty breaks and meals. She always left us a summary as to what she did, and sent us pictures with every visit. I felt very comfortable leaving our dogs in her care, and would definitely recommend her.

Natalie has been absolutely fantastic with my four dogs. She handles them all with no problem at all. She is responsible and flexible with schedule changes and that has been a big help as my work schedule does fluctuate. The dogs just love her and we feel very fortunate to have her as our daily pet sitter. I would strongly recommend Natalie if you are looking for peace of mind when it comes to having someone trustworthy to care for your pets.

About: It all started when I was 5 and my sister and I convinced our animal loving parents to add to our family, we got a golden retriever puppy and a kitten in the same year. I have never lived a day without a pet in 35 years! I have open availability. I have 2 smaller dogs and a parrot. I live in a nice, quiet neighborhood perfect for walking furry friends. Ricky and Lucy (cavapoos) love a good slumber party :) I do not have a fenced in yard. My pups know the perimeters. I do take leashed potty breaks and walks with pup visitors. I am familiar with "runners" and an capable of making sure that doesn't happen!

Christine took such wonderful care of my 13 year old Newfie mix Punkie! As a large breed, Punkie has some health issues and Christine knew just how to care for her with short walks, gentle brushing and lots of love! Christine went above and beyond making sure all the tumbleweeds of hair were cleaned up before I got home. Such a joy to come home to clean floors and a happy dog! Thank you, Christine!

About: I have been a pet owner since I brought my first dog home at 12yo and told my parents "they said we could keep her overnight to see if we liked her. We currently have three dogs, and my roommate has two. I truly believe that people don't deserve dogs, they are the best! I decided to take a break from working full time, and this is my only job right now. Coming from working 12 hours a days, I understand the guilt that come along with that for pet parents. I'm happy to step in where you can't! I'm used to working with an array of dogs, big and small along with those that have special needs, like my own. I will take whatever precautions necessary, and follow all owner guidelines.

About: I’ve been caring for, training, and owning dogs nearly my whole life starting from childhood to now fostering/watching for friends and family. I’ve also had experience working professionally as a pet sitter. Whether your pup is large or small I’ll care for them as if they were my own and bring all the playful energy as a young adult to provide a fun experience during my time with them. I currently work remotely and have increased flexibility for scheduling needs. Although I will need to primarily be at home during my working hours I am able to ensure your pets are taken care of in a timely fashion without being left for too long without potty breaks. Your boundaries for your animals whether they be rules or practices in your personal home will be closely followed and respected. I bring my years of pet experience to ensure their safety is my top priority when staying with them overnight or providing daily care along with giving them the company they’ll need while you are away.
