“Bianca was really good with my dogs. They seemed happy when I came back. She sends really sweet pictures and spends a lot of time with the animals. She was also able to come at the last minute to help with the dogs. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter!”
“Lydia and Emmett were amazing! This is the first time we’ve used a pet sitter and I was initially nervous. However, not only was there a very detailed description of how each visit went, they also included so many photos and I could see how happy my pup was!”
About: Hello! My name is Angel and like most pet sitters, I have a deep love for animals♡ I have a Bachelors degree in Human Services a Masters degree in Public Administration, and a doctorate in asking to pet strangers dogs in public. I have had cats my entire life, and over the last 8 years have adopted four cats, cared for two elderly dogs - one of which had various health issues and required both medication and physical assistance - and fostered a number of kittens through my local shelter from 1 day old to adoption age. I have experience with cats who are friendly, shy, and aggressive - and both dogs and cats with mild medical needs. My cats are very particular themselves, so feel free to let me know if you have any specific requests! My day time job most often requires 8:30am-5pm, with three days remote, offering my the ability to go before and after work or midday to drop in and care for your fur babies!

I am caring and enthusiastic, as well as thorough and respectful.

I've lost track of how many times we have booked Karma and she has done a great job every single time. It's gotten to the point where I'm not sure we would ever leave town if Karma couldn't take care of our three dogs! :-) We were away for a full week this time and knowing the pups were in Karma's care gave us complete peace of mind. There is a reason (actually a LOT of reasons) why she is at the top of Rover's ratings!
Nelson & Donna did a fantastic job checking in on our pets while we were away. We made last minute plans to go out of town for the weekend and needed a pet sitter in a hurry. Nelson and Donna had availability and we're able to stop by the day prior to meet and greet with us. They did a fantastic job of keeping us informed on the dogs activity, eating habits, and potty breaks. Along with pictures they sent, we felt very comfortable about the pups while we were away. They did a fantastic job and I would highly recommend them. I found both Nelson and Donna to be personable, punctual, and trustworthy people.
