Rebekah did a great job for us! Our cat Bob is usually very shy, but she trusted Rebekah enough to warm up to her. Rebekah sent very nice pictures of her visits with Bob. Would recommend her and will book her again in the future.

Tasha did an amazing job caring for our cats for the week! She made sure they felt loved and comfortable as well as keeping everything clean too. We were nervous to leave our girls, but Tasha sent so many sweet pictures and updates which made our trip much less stressful! We will definitely book with her again! :⁠)

About: 🐶I’ve taken care of our Family Rottweiler, Mini Schanuzer and Elderly Shitzu mix. I’ve also had my Chihuahua since I was a teenager. With that being said, I am very experienced with dogs of any size from pup to senior 🐕‍🦺. I work from home which makes it easier to spend time with the pups as well as keep a close eye on them. This is extremely convenient if your fur baby has separation anxiety! I have a fenced in yard and two Fur babies to keep your Pup company during their stay! I’ve also got a large crate if needed.

We really appreciate Matt’s dropping in to care for our 3 kitties while we were out of town. He did a great job and kept us in the loop the whole time we were gone which was much appreciated. We would definitely recommend Matt and use him again!

We have been looking for the perfect person to sit with Kato. And we found her. Zoey was so good with him. He went to her as soon as he saw her. Very rare for him. He has anxieties. We have been looking since we retired to be able to travel more. Shame it is only a 5 star rating.

Taylor was fantastic with our puppy. I was so worried to leave her home alone while I was at work due to her separation anxiety, but Taylor took great care of her. She was on time every day and very communicative which helped put my mind at ease. We will definitely use her again.

Really appreciate Pat helping us on short notice! She was fantastic with our rather timid and shy cat. Pat allowed our Bella to set the pace for interaction. Very attentive and took such good care with her. She even brought in an unexpected package. Very warm and caring lady. Will definitely use her services again.

About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and grew up with both dogs and cats. I also have my own rabbit, Snoopy, so I understand how important it is to have someone trustworthy caring for your pet. I have experience pet sitting for friends and family and am especially comfortable with large breeds including pit bulls, Dobermans, German Shepherds, and huskies. I’m comfortable administering medication when needed and staying calm in emergency situations. I’m very attentive to pets and good at noticing when something seems off, and I’m comfortable communicating concerns quickly and getting veterinary care if needed. I will care for your pets like they’re my own and make sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I work full-time as an Operations Manager, but pet care fits easily into my routine! I’m available before and after (& during lunch break if needed!!) work for walks, feeding, playtime, medications, and lots of attention. I am also available overnights! I make pet care a priority and will always communicate my schedule clearly so your pet gets reliable, loving care. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. I will follow your pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, medications, and any special instructions. I’m very attentive and good at noticing when something seems off, and I will always communicate updates or concerns quickly. I’m comfortable administering medication when needed and staying calm in emergency situations if they arise. I will treat your home and pets with the same care, love, and respect I would want for my own. I also know how hard it can be being away from your pet (I’m definitely that pet parent too with my rabbit, Snoopy 😂), so I’m always happy to send plenty of photo and video updates for extra peace of mind!

We are beyond pleased with the care and attention Madylon gave to our cat. She put our little Bells, normally a very skittish cat, at ease from the first visit. Highly recommend Madylon and will seek her out anytime we are on vacation. Thank you Madylon for taking wonderful care of our Bell!

About: I love animals and will treat them with the utmost love and respect they deserve. I have taken care of pets from adolescent to seniors. I've provided transportation to veterinarian visits, I walk dog. I have experience in giving medicine (pill and shots) and dealing with special needs pets. I am retired so i have a lot of time to do what i love to do and that's spend time with animals. I schedule my appointments so as to give my clients undivided attention and punctuality they need. I cater to my clients and their fur babies needs and desires. I like to sit down and discuss with any perspective client what their and their pets needs are and formulate a plain to ensure the utmost safety and comfort of the fur babies.

About: I grew up in a home full of animals, including three boxers, a pit bull, and cats all around! All of the animals i’ve owned have lived to senior ages, so I am aware of what may need done to love the older guys a little extra! I’m also aware of what puppy training or walking may look like. I’ve trained and raised three of my own dogs as well. I am currently working full time, but my hours may vary per day! I am available for dog walking/drop in visits early morning and afternoon/evening! Currently our day starts with a potty trip and around ten minutes of enrichment before going into kennels for work! Once I am home, we are at a park or on a walk daily! My girls eat once in the morning and once in the evening. Our evening then finishing with a final potty break and settling into bed!

Willow did amazing with my baby Fluffy. He’s extremely shy and skittish, but he was just recently diagnosed with diabetes and I needed someone familiar with the injection process to stop by and give him his shots while my dad watched the other animals. Fluffy certainly did not make it easy on her by hiding and running the entire time, but she was still able to ensure he got his injections as needed and sent photos of him and the other babies while I was away. I would definitely hire her again if I ever need another pet sitter!
