I was very satisfied with Amy. She came before the stay so both my cat and I could become acquainted and review house access. She and my cat were immediate friends. She sent me pictures each day and we communicated by text and email. My house looked better when I returned than when I left. She is very kind and caring and I would recommend her without any qualms.

Absolutely fantastic! Robyn and Steven are punctual, communicative, and very friendly. They sat with my storm-anxious dog through bad weather and even with no phone signal on our trip, I had no doubt they were providing the best care to our families sweet pets. Can not recommend them enough!

Kristie looked after out pit-mix and cat for a weekend and was fantastic. She was gracious and asked great questions during our initial meet and greet. She gave us updates and pics throughout the weekend. She was such a calm presence for our animals while we were away. Our home was clean and looked great, when we returned. We would definitely rebook with her. Thank you Kristie!

About: I’m a reliable and attentive pet sitter who truly enjoys caring for animals and making sure they feel safe and comfortable while their owners are away. I have reliable transportation to your furbabies. I have hands-on experience with dogs and cats, including personal care, drop-ins, in-home sitting, training my own dogs, and raising puppies and litters of cats. I’m patient, detail-oriented, and always follow care instructions closely. I currently do not work so I am available any day or time throughout the week and weekend. I have no preference for time of day or time of night. While in a clients home I’ll give your fur baby all the attention in the world but also respect when an animal wants their own space. I’m quick to recognize body language on an animal. I’ll always be checking food and water. Play with them if any toys are available

I can’t speak highly enough of Cathryn! She took such great care of our two Frenchies, and our home, while we were out of the country for two weeks. We knew they were in good hands and we appreciated her taking care of some things around our home.

Pam is wonderful. She is not only reliable and communicative with me, but she is most importantly terrific with my pups. Both Clarence and Mary seemed to love her on sight. She worked well with me when our plans changed and was always agreeable. Pam is everything one hopes for as a house-sitter, pet-sitter. She cared for my home in a way that was respectful and consistent, but most of all, she cared for my furbabies. Thanks, Pam! We know we will reach out again! Best, Whitney

Cindy was great! I hadn’t left my dogs overnight for a long time with one of them being a senior. But I felt comfortable and not worried with Cindy staying at my home with them. She was very communicative and sent lots of photos. Will book again for sure!

About: I've been caring for animals for most of my life and currently have three dogs of my own. I am responsible for their daily care, including feeding, walking, bathing, exercise, and making sure they feel loved and comfortable. Through caring for my pets, I have learned patience, responsibility, and how to understand different animal personalities and needs. I have also experienced the loss of a beloved dog, which taught me how important pets are as members of the family. I will care for your pets with the same love and dedication I give my own. As a student on summer break, I have open availability and can provide care throughout the day, including mornings, afternoons, evenings, weekends, and holidays. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets the attention, exercise, companionship, and care they deserve. I am committed to following each pet's routine and ensuring they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you're away. pet's safety and well-being are my top priorities. I carefully follow all instructions regarding feeding schedules, medications, exercise, and any special needs. I understand that every pet is unique and deserves individualized care. I provide a calm, loving, and attentive environment and will keep you updated with messages and photos so you can feel confident knowing your pet is safe, happy, and cared for. I treat every animal as if they were my own family member.

We had such a great experience with Sidnee! She was incredibly patient and caring with our six dogs. She followed every detail perfectly, kept us updated with Ron and his food and making sure he ate, paying attention to Kahlua and Baileys behavior and resolving any issues or changing things if needed. Her communication was amazing the entire time. She kept us updated, listened to our notes, and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. You can really tell she cares about the dogs. Highly recommend! 💛

About: I’ve taken care of my personal dogs as well as family dogs for years. I love to play with them and just sit and cuddle with them as well. I am currently a graduate student at Jacksonville University. I am available after 2pm everyday, and on the weekends I can do all day! I am also usually up pretty late at nights so can do late night walks/sitting as well. I am a very trustworthy person. On walks I will make sure they don’t get into anything that may be harmful and always be prepared when in contact with other people/animals.

Scott was absolutely wonderful both with our Amos, and our home. We got plants of photos and updates for Amos’ activity and daily happenings, and Scott was quick to respond if ever we needed anything. Scott must be a dog whisperer of sorts, because our Amos had zero issues with us leaving (he ate, did not pace at all, settled and napped per usual, and slept all night, and even cuddled with Scott!).. which is exactly what we were hoping for! We 100% would recommend Scott and will be relying on him again for any of our house/pet sitting needs.

Mandy did such a wonderful job taking care of Brownie while we were out of town. It was Brownie’s first stay as an only dog as his sister recently passed the rainbow bridge so we were nervous about leaving him for so many days but Mandy eased the worry. She took many photos and gave regular updates. We will 100 percent use her again.

Shanna took exceptional care of my two senior dogs while I was away, and I truly couldn’t have asked for a better sitter. Caring for senior pets can be challenging since they require daily medications and extra attention, but Shanna handled everything flawlessly. She was incredibly sweet, patient, and caring with them, which gave me tremendous peace of mind. Throughout the stay, she sent multiple updates and photos each day, so I always knew they were happy, comfortable, and well cared for. It’s clear that Shanna genuinely loves animals and treats them like her own. I would absolutely trust her with my dogs again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable, compassionate pet sitter.

Cindy was wonderful! She took great care of my 2 fur babies while out of the country for 2 weeks. She is a great communicator and sent us photos often with updates on how things were going. Our flight was delayed a few hours and she was willing to stay longer to ensure our dog didn’t have to wait too long for his next potty break. I highly recommend Cindy and would definitely rebook for future stays.
