Penny was absolutely AMAZING and we are so very thankful for her help watching our babies (2 dachshunds). If you know anything about a dachshund, they are loving, needy and can be barky and particular about new friends. We had previously never left our dogs with anyone other than family, but needed to find a sitter while we were away for our wedding for a week with family. Penny blew it out of the park from the moment we did our meet and greet. She has such a warm and calm presence that our dogs instantly became comfortable around (which is no small feat when you’re meeting a dachshund!). She gave us twice daily updates while we were away with plenty of pictures that we were so happy to see. It was clear through her messages that our pups were getting plenty of love and engagement. We were quite worried about our finicky pups and Penny eased those worries and went above and beyond. We would 10/10 recommend Penny and look forward to using her pet watching services in the future 🙏💗 Thank you so much Penny!!! (From the dogs and us humans)

Pagie took wonderful care of our pets while we were out of town. We have one dog who is very shy and timed with strangers, Paige did a wonderful job with her and quickly made progress with her. I knew she felt comfort when I was getting updates about their walks, Lilly never wants to go on a walk with a new sitter until at least 3-4 days in, she's definitely a dog whisperer. She also handled our rambunctious labradoodle with ease and gave lots of love to our kitty who is usually hiding away from the dogs’ craziness. Paige provided daily updates and pics which put this dog mom at ease. We came home to a clean home and happy pets, what more could we ask for! We’ll definitely be booking with Paige again.

Stacia did a great job taking care of our senior dog and home while we were away. She kept us updated and sent us photos during the time we were gone, which kept us at ease. You can tell Stacia is an animal lover, so we felt good knowing our dog was being well cared for and was happy at home while we were away. We would absolutely use Stacia again in the future. She was great!

About: I have always loved animals and enjoy taking care of them! My experience consists of 12+ years of caring for cats and dogs, along with other small animals. I have worked as a veterinary assistant at an animal hospital in the past, and some of my skills include administering medications, insulin injections, and sq fluids. My availability is flexible for drop-in visits. I have a flexible schedule, and this allows me to spend lots of time with your pets during house sitting stays. I am also able to provide multiple drop-in visits throughout the day. During your pets stay I will follow their regular schedule for food and activities. Walks and outside time can be done based on your dogs schedule.

Hailey is an incredible sitter. My cat was ill when I had to go out of town, and Hailey took amazing care of her and made sure she got her medication. Through no fault of Hailey’s, my cat had a medical emergency and had to be rushed to the vet. Hailey handled the situation perfectly, which is something I’m not sure I could have done. If you want someone who is caring, reliable, and able to handle themselves and your pet in a crisis, hire Hailey.

Anna did an excellent job watching our anxious dogs! She also had great communication, which helped their anxious owner. Anna was clear about her schedule and always let us know when she’d be gone, which I really appreciated. I never felt like I had to bother her for updates or information, as both were provided often. We came home to a clean house and happy dogs! We would definitely ask her to sit in the future!

Liz was amazing, I knew Lottie was in great hands from the start. We hate being away from her, but were very comfortable being away for six days, even though this was our first time having Liz housesit for us. She definitely went above and beyond what was required, and left our house exactly as we did. She sent so many photos and provided great updates which we loved. We will definitely use her again.

Chioma took good care of our dogs. The two dogs were rescued a few months ago from a puppy mill, and have special needs due to how they had been treated. Chioma understood their needs, and upon our return, the dogs were thriving even more than before we left. The house was clean and everything in order. Thank you Chioma!

Daniel was communicative, kind, and thorough in taking care of our dog and cat. He made sure to get all the info he needed and even washed the sheets after house sitting! While we were halfway across the world, we felt totally at ease with him taking the helm for us. His thoughtfulness and professionalism are just a few of the reasons we will definitely book him again.

Mary exceeded all expectations by a wide margin. We are super picky on who comes to our home and takes care of our pets. She gave daily updates of our pets, kept our house super tidy, and left delicious baked goods for us (all very yummy!). Most importantly, it was obvious when we returned, our pets were very well taken care of. She loves pets and it shows. You will not be disappointed if you are lucky enough to hire Mary.
