1. Robin B.


“Robin kept my fur babies happy and safe over my four-day trip. I have two senior pets on special medication and she was able to keep them on their routine in our own home so they didn’t have to be stressed out going to the kennel. She’s really nice and laid-back. she’s also very communicative, and sent lots of photos so we would know how they were doing. Our pets were happy to see us, but not stressed out when we got home. She is really great. We will use her again!”


2. Ashley J.

“I am so happy that Ashley came to take care of our spoiled little babies. My dog Jack has the worst separation anxiety of any animal that I’ve ever known. He can’t be left alone, he will stress out so much, making himself sick and tearing up and house. Once he even chewed up the brass door knob. Ashley was absolutely wonderful with him, she was so patient and attentive to him. I thought our new Siamese kitten was going to worry her most but he was just playful and happy. All 3 of my animals were so well taken care of, if you need a pet sitter, I highly recommend Ashley. I will use her again and I will recommend her to everyone that I know 🥰”

About: I work as a Kennel Tech and I have experience handling 30+ dogs at one time. I am comfortable pet sitting all size dogs and breeds. I have experience administrating oral medication. I have a flexible schedule and I really enjoy this , so I’m usually always available to play with your pups! I’ll try to work with your schedule to fit mine 🥰 During drop-in visits, I'll carefully assess and ensure your pet's well-being, checking the security of the environment, like making sure all gates to the fence are closed. The most important part of this experience is making sure your pet feels safe and loved which means bunches of cuddles and okay time🥰Before I leave, I'll confirm that your pet has all their necessities and that your home is secure with locked doors. If you prefer your dog to be crated, I'm more than willing to accommodate that. I'll also handle cleaning duties, from tidying up their dog or cat bowls to any messes they may create, leaving your home as clean or even cleaner than I found it.
