“Keana was wonderful in caring for our pets while on vacation. We haven’t done this with an overnight sitter before so we were nervous but she came and met us and our animals which put us at ease with her way with the dogs and cat. While away she sent us videos daily and let us know how they were doing! She offered to stay later if there was a travel hang up too. The house was also spotless when we got home! I highly recommend her and will def use Keana again!”

About: 🚨allergic to cats the price isn’t a joke the app will not allow me to take the option away. i cannot house sit in a home with an inside cat🚨 i’ve cared for many breeds of dogs throughout my life from small chihuahuas, to pit bulls, and even the occasional great danes! since i was around 8 i’ve gotten little side jobs of walking and bathing dogs here and there and i REALLY miss it. currently i am dogsitting full time so as long as i’m not booked up with other pups i’ll be available. no earlier than 9am and no later than 8pm i live on a lot of land so there’s a ton to explore but if you’re not comfortable with that i can leash them easily, i do not accept dogs who pull on leashes as i’m small and know my limits. i also have 2 dogs one medium and one small

Star J.
“Star is amazing. She was able to come over very last minute to watch my three big dogs and cat for the weekend. My three big dog are on a lot of different medications and are very nervous around new people. They are all rescues and they have very strict schedules. She was able to meet my dogs before hand and then came over early to go over their schedules. My dogs and cat were best friends with her after the three days. She is now my permanent dog and cat sitter and the only person I can trust with my fur babies. I can now look forward to my work trips without anxiety about my pets!”
