“Hailey is great. She saved us when our other house sitter had a family emergency. She sent adorable photos of our pets while we were gone and left the house very clean. She even wrote us a nice card and left it on the counter with our keys… and most importantly the pets were calm and happy when we got home. I highly recommend her! Thank you so much Hailey 😊!! A+”

“Great experience with Ali. Sasha was happy and seemed to like her stay with Ali. We appreciated how great she was at communicating and even sent us a pic of Sasha enjoying her stay. Thanks to Ali .”

About: I’ve had dozens of people rely on me in the past to care for their dogs - walking, dog park, baths, feed - I’ll do it all! I currently work full time from the comfort of my home with my 6 little loves. I’m available mornings & evenings for drop ins but can do mid day as well! My go-to is taking pups to the dog park whether that’s alone or with friends to let them explore and have fun! We enjoy the outdoors so our pups love hiking, swimming, and playing fetch!!

About: I’ve had cats, dogs, chickens, ducks, and horses growing up. Having a wide range of animals growing up has helped me learn what a pet is wanting and needing. I’m currently a college student, my evening can be flexible as well as my weekends! Willing to work with owners to create a balance that works for me and your pets. I would prefer to have your pet in your home! I think that will be best for your pets safety and mine too. I’m willing to do what the owner is wanting for their pets comfortability.
