“Emily truly cares for these animals like they are her own. When we left for a week we were worried or babies would be lonly and confused. But everyday we got updates from Emily without even asking, and lots of adorable picture of their adventures. When we got home it was like we never left them, I swear they didn't even know we were gone. And she left our home in better shape then when we left. I would recommendemily to anyone who is in search of a good pet sitter, and we will definitely be using her again!!!”
2. Rebecca R.
“Rebecca was great, took excellent care of my kitties, played with them lots, did a great job giving my littlest her eye medication. 10/10 would book again.”
3. Rich B.
“Rich did a wonderful job taking care of our special needs cat. Bop has a neurological disorder and requires a lot of extra care and accommodations. This was our first time leaving him so I was extremely nervous. But Rich followed our many instructions to the letter, provided excellent communication and photos, and most importantly, gave him lots of love. It was such a weight off our minds knowing he was in good hands! We will definitely use Rich in the future.”
4. Amanda L.
“Thank you for watching after Walle while we were in Utah. I really was happy to know someone was giving him attention every day when I wasn't able to. I appreciate so much you bringing Duncan's chewy box inside (despite my best efforts to get that shipment way before we left, long story with that). It's the biggest guilt I have leaving home is knowing Walle might be lonely. I can't take him away from home like we can with Duncan (becuase cats are sensitive to new enviorments). I appreciate you are so close to home and I feel walle sure associates you with good treats and pets and a good part of his day while we are gone.”
5. Ashley R.

7. Heather E.
“Heather was fantastic!! We have three elderly pets-two dogs and a cat. Heather administered medication and spent time with them so they weren’t lonely. They loved her and we enjoyed seeing the photos she sent us of them. We will be reaching out to Heather every time we need someone to drop in for our babies. Thank you so much Heather for giving us the ease of mind to have fun while we were away from home!!”

9. Nikki R.
“Nikki has taken such great care of my dog and cat on multiple occasions. She was always updating me and sending pictures. She spent time playing with them both and walking the dog. I know that I can leave my pets in her care and not worry about them at all. I highly recommend her as a responsible and caring pet sitter!”

12. Kylie B.
About: I have taken care of all sorts of breeds and ages of dogs. I work at a doggy daycare as well and have been trained in dog behavior, body language, and leash work. I absolutely love working with dogs and am responsible and caring. I love walking and caring for animals so helping walk dogs or let dogs out would fit in perfectly for my daily walks and would work out! I am very responsible and take great pride in the care of others animals as my own. I treat them as they were my own. This includes potty breaks at a timely manner, feedings, loving, and playtime!
13. Jaimie W.
“Jaimie is my daughter. She is an animal lover and will be awesome with your pets! They are sure to get extra love, attention, and care with Jaimie.”

About: I've always been a huge dog lover, tried to take in every stray as a kid, I grew up around dogs like basset hounds, Labradors, poodles and beagles. I've dog sat for boxers who think they're lap dogs, I've sat for younger pups, middle aged dogs, senior dogs, small dogs and big dogs! I go on frequent walks, play tug a war, play fetch, snuggles and affection. Give dogs medication if they need it, whatever makes the dogs happy! I'm very fond of cats as well I love all the different cat personalities and just being able to have some calm moments and snuggle with them. I'm a wife, mom and accountant by day but Thursday-Sunday I have more flexibility to soak up extra pet snuggles. Watching other people's precious pups/cats allows me more animal loving time. I treat all pets just like I would my own pup or kitty cat lots of snuggles, a few treats, safe walks making sure harnesses or leashes are properly worn and make sure they are always in a safe environment.
15. Amber H.
“Amber was the best. I needed someone on short notice like one day and she was right there. Sent me pictures and treated them like they were her own cats.”
16. Mariah D.
“Mariah communicated well prior to the visit. She also journaled her visit with great photos and a detailed description of her time with Satchel. We’d definitely feel comfortable scheduling with Mariah again in the future.”

About: I have been taking care of dogs for my entire life! I have experience caring for big and small dogs of all ages, from puppies to the elderly. I took on the responsibility of training each of my family's dogs, so I am skilled in the area of obedience training for puppies and adolescent dogs. I am a very meticulous person and I follow every direct I'm given to a T, so I will make sure that your fur baby gets the best care and love possible. I am currently a high school student about to graduate and leave for college! From now until the end of the school year, I am available every weekday from 2-10. After May 31st, I will be working part-time, so I will have more than enough time during the summer to care for your fur babies! Although I do not offer services at my own house, I will make sure that your pet is as safe as can be wherever we are! The safety of anybody's pets is a top priority for any pet owner, including myself. Leaches and supervision are some of the most important tools that pet owners can use to keep their pets safe.
18. Jennie R.
“One of the most wonderful things about Jennie is how much she loves dogs. I've seen her first hand with my dogs, and with her own. She treats them as family and treats them with respect and love and... treats! I would absolutely trust Jennie with my dogs, whether for a quick walk, check in or dogsitting for one day or staying at her house while my family is on vacation.”
19. Austin C.
“To know my brother Austin is to know animals (and kids) love him and he is amazing with them. My most recent example is from two weeks ago when he came to visit. I adopted my dog during the height of COVID and due to social distancing we had limited interaction with other people and nobody ever came over. My dog became territorial aggressive in our home. I knew the one person that could help me work with him was Austin. I watched as my dog went from aggressive to asking for belly rubs! Seriously! I watched my dog realize that not only was Austin not a threat but is lots of fun. They become the best of friends and it made my heart happy to see them build that relationship. Soon it was all about playing with toys, going on walks and all the pets my dog could want. I understand that this position isn’t about training but I wanted to try and showcase how much love Austin has for every animal I’ve ever seen him around. I would highly recommend Austin to anyone who is looking for a dog sitter and wants to have a kind, responsible, fun and knowledgeable person to care for their fur baby. Wether it’s during work hours or while they're away on vacation not having to worry about their pets as they would be in safe and very capable hands is priceless. If you have any further questions you may contact me at 832-477-6658 Sheri Sankey”
20. April S.
“April is amazing she treats her guest pets just like her own. She loves them and spoils them just like I would. She also makes them mind and not act up and helps with training. I will only allow her to watch my pups.”
