“Colleen was definitely a God send, she took excellent care of our Great Dane staying with him during our 7day vacation. She went above and beyond making sure to send us pictures to reassure us he was ok. Duke will definitely be seeing more of her.”
2. Devin & Alexis E.
“Devin stayed at our house with our pup… the communication was wonderful, pics were a welcome bonus and our house looks like no one was even there !! Looking forward to working with Devin and Alexis again”

“Scotti was incredible with our dogs. We booked her for a overnight stay and she kept our two big dogs calm and happy, we came home and they were so well behaved and happy. We will be booking with Scotti any chance I can!”
4. Arianna G.
“Arianna house-sat for me, my dog, and my cat while I was out of town for work. The animals seemed to love her, including my rather aloof cat (which says a lot). She communicated regularly and sent lots of pictures of my boys. 100% would rebook any time!”
5. Noah Z.
“Noah did a great job with my dog! She has a very strict routine and generally gets very anxious if it isn't followed. Noah followed her routine exactly and kept me updated with lots of pictures along the way. When I got back she was so relaxed and happy!”
6. Alec B.
“Alec was amazing! He was great at communicating and sending pictures of our two dogs. He made sure they were fed, taken out routinely and loved on. He also left our house cleaner than we left it! I would highly recommend Alec to anyone looking for a pet sitter.”
7. DeAna M.
“DeAna M. Is a great human with a big love for animals of all kinds. She's very kind and mindful and certainly takes her responsibilities to heart. I couldn't recommend her more.”

9. Khali N.
“Khali house- and pet-sat for me (and my rather needy senior dog and cat) while I was out of town for work for 5 nights. She took great care of the house and kept me updated on my fur babes, including sending lots of pictures! I would 100% book Khali again!”
10. Kaleigh W.
About: I have been taking care of dogs for 2 years while working at a doggy daycare. My skillset ranges from distributing medications to ensuring dietary needs are always met! I have worked with senior dogs and puppies alike. I understand the importance of routine, affection, safe play, and creating a loving environment for your pup. I can’t wait to give your dog the love and attention they deserve while you’re away! I am available 7 days a week in the summer. During the school year, I am only available on weekends or breaks. You can check my calendar for details. I can provide walking, playtime, dog-sitting, and more! Your pup will always be seen every 2-4 hours in my care! I have a friendly little girl named Cookie and 2 cats who mind their own business. I prefer to take care of dogs inside of their home, but I am able to bring a dog to my house! I take my pup out every 2 hours and she is always playing. I will make sure your pet gets the same love and attention!

12. Allysa B.
“Allysa was wonderful! She spent a weekend taking care of my dog and two cats and sent pictures of all 3 at least twice a day with very detailed updates. Two of them were on medication and she had no problems getting them to take their pills. I will definitely be booking with Allysa next time I need someone to watch my pets.”

15. Akyia C.
“If you are looking for someone that is passionate about animals then look no further. Akyia C. is much like a fur whisperer and is able to engage with them on a whole new level. Akyia has provided fun and exciting exercises for my fur babies that not only get them off the lazy chair but stimulates their mind.”
16. Grace H.
“Grace was prompt, kind and trustworthy. My fur baby Rita & I are grateful for her service. We will definitely use her next time we’re in Charleston, WV!”

I’m familiar with giving medications and keeping on a set schedule. I have 2 pets of my own so I know how important it is to keep them on a schedule.
