“Dawn is the most compassionate, wonderful person! It felt as if she loved my Max as much as I love him. You would be lucky to have Dawn take care of your little family member members. She is a gem!”

“Victoria was awesome! She was very responsive and on time. She sent a lot of photos and a nice summary of how Mia was doing and how well she was eating and so on. She also went the extra mile and brought in some packages that were left on our doorstep while we were away! Definitely will use her again!”

“Cindy has been a life saver each and every every time we need last minute care! Ludo loves hanging out with her and she’s is great with him! We can’t recommend her enough.”

About: I am an avid animal lover and love my own dogs more than I like most people! I have watched and walked dogs for neighbors, friends, and family members for at least ten years as a side job and just a hobby. I volunteer with a local animal shelter and walk their dogs at least once a week, and it’s the best time. I love interacting with animals and getting to be a part of their day. I work remotely, so I have my days and nights to walk, visit, and sit with your pet. They are my priority when I am with them and I love giving them all of the attention. My own two dogs have very different schedules. My 15 year old goes out potty at least every two to three hours and enjoys his short, but refreshing strolls. My 9 year old hates mornings and won’t probably leave the bedroom until much later. Her and I will go at least a couple miles on one of our walks and even then she’s not tired our! In my clients home, I always try to leave the home the way it is found after playing with your pet. I follow instructions to the letter when it comes to pet sitting, as I have had to care for senior dogs with special dietary and medical needs. If I have questions, I will always ask.
“Patrick is so amazing. I am very grateful for his help with taking care of my pup. He is so flexible and accommodating with scheduling. My dog absolutely loves him.”

I can manage plants and will treat your house and space with privacy and respect. I have my own transport.
“"Kat" B. provided an incredible experience when she took care of my two cats and the house. The cats loved spending time with her, and she followed all the instructions and did extra tasks without being asked. The "Kat" has the special animal magic due to her knowledge and experiences with a diverse population of animals!. I would not hesitate to contact her to take care of your pets. You will be happy with what she can provide for your most important family members. Thank you for all you did Kat, and I look forward to seeing you again.”

“August was a perfect fit! Our rescue is very sensitive to new people and was immediately at ease during the meet and greet. While we were away, August was patient, kind and sweet whenever Mina would need more alone time or was curious to get to know him better. He was on time, responsive and reliable. We’ll absolutely work with August again in the future!”

“Lisa was awesome from the moment we met her. She came prepared to take notes on the needs of our dogs and asked great questions about our expectations of our dogs.
