“Bruce took amazing care of our cat while we were on vacation. In addition to food/water, our cat required drop in visits twice daily for anti-seizure medication, which Bruce handled with ease.

6. Jackie D.
“Jackie has taken care of our puppy, Freya, numerous times now, and she always does a fantastic job! Jackie is understanding, patient, attentive, and goes above and beyond on each visit, to make sure that Freya's needs are met. I always look forward to seeing the little summary of the visit, photos, and any updates; it makes being away from Freya a little easier, knowing she is well cared for by Jackie. I highly recommend Jackie to anyone looking for someone to take care of their four-legged family member!”

“It has to be a really special person for me to feel comfortable leaving someone in my house overnight with my baby. Samantha spent the weekend inmy home and took great care of my shitzhu-bision. She was flexible with her schedule and asked all the right questions. She is very upbeat and enthusiastic. She is confident in her experience and knowledge about dogs. She randomly touched base with me and sent lots of pictures ensuring me that Pippa was very happy. I would absolutely have Samantha come back again and would highly recommend her.”

“Erika was super sweet and professional when it came to our feisty diabetic diva, Jaxx. We know that Jaxx gave her a hard time, while we were away on vacation, but Erika handled everything very, very well.

13. Lauren H.
About: If I can raise a 122 pound stubborn Great Pyrenees I’m positive I can handle your fur baby. There is no pet I can’t handle. I currently work 8:30 to 5 Monday to Friday. My schedule is any time that works around that. I have done many specific schedules with different pet parents. I have mostly been to clients homes considering I do have 2 dogs at home. I go on frequent walks with my own dogs. I will take the time to make sure your pet is returned ready to sleep through the night.
14. Stephanie F.
“Stephanie was wonderful! She kept me updated and clearly communicated throughout the visit with my two pups. She was extremely patient as one dog is nervous and reluctant to come out for strangers. Thank you Stephanie!! I appreciate your time!”
15. Tina Z.
“We are so grateful to Tina for her help. She was quick to respond and sent updates and pics of her visits with our two kitties. We would recommend Tina to anyone looking for a reliable and professional sitter, and we will definitely use her again!”

18. Caitlin O.
About: I am a life-long pet owner with experience with both cats and dogs. Most of my experience in pet care comes from the last 5-6 years when my family took in three stray cats. Thanks to my cats I know how to properly handle and calm skittish animals and all the right ways to earn their trust. I am also very comfortable with the basics of pet care, including: teeth brushing, bathing, and claw trimming. I know the proper way to pick up and pet cats, and can easily gauge the mood and comfort level of any animal. Friends and family have called me an animal whisperer, and though I can’t put that on a resumé, it’s true that I love animals and have always been a caring and responsible pet owner. I hope you reach out! *Note: I am currently in between jobs, so my schedule is relatively open on the day-to-day, but this is subject to change in the future. Additionally, I can make exceptions for available days of the week/time availability if you ask. I currently have a free schedule with the exception of Thursdays. With a couple days’ notice I will be there to care for your pet! I won’t be keeping any pets in my house due to my cats being skittish and wary of new friends, but when caring for your pet in your house I will follow your instructions! I can crate pets if necessary and will follow feeding, medication, and potty break schedules.
19. Amanda D.
About: I grew up on a small farm with lots of different types of animals. Since adulthood I have had multiple pets and have volunteered with animal shelters. I am comfortable working with a lot of different pet temperaments and love getting to know new animal friends on thier comfort level. I currently have two adorable dogs, a 14 year old senior Tibetan Spaniel mix and a hyper, anxious Terrier mix puppy. We enjoy going on hikes, paddel boarding, and being amateur pet models for my photography hobby together. I look forward to meeting with you and your pet. I am currently a stay at home dog mom, so my schedule can be pretty flexible. I am happy to discuss and accommodate whatever your pet care needs may be. I live in an apartment and cannot watch other animals in my home at this time. I am however able and very happy to come to you.
