“Lauren was great with our three cats! We were gone for a week and never worried about the care that they received. Knowing that Lauren had experience giving injections helped relieve the stress that we had with our newly diagnosed diabetic cat. We won’t hesitate to rebook with Lauren again when needed!”
“Marie looked after our cat during two weeks over the holidays. During this period Marie supplied us with video and many photos of our happy and well cared for pet. Thank you for being so dependable and compassionate!”
“Jenna is FANTASTIC! She goes over and above for my fur babies. She loves my kitties like they were her own. This is my second booking with her and I’m going to schedule another booking today. I am very highly satisfied and you will be too!!!”
“I highly recommend Sam. She was absolutely fantastic dropping in to take care of my 4 cats, including administering the one cat's daily inhaler for asthma. Sam was very communicative, sent lots of pictures, and thorough in letting me know how everyone was doing. Sam made my babies and myself very comfortable and confident in being very well taken care of. I look forward to having Sam back in future!”
“Barbie was absolutely amazing! She went above and beyond for us and our pets. Her detailed updates and frequent photos helped put our minds at ease while we were away. It was so comforting knowing our kitties were in such good hands! We will definitely be using Barbie again in the future!”
About: I have had pets, dogs and cats for over 50 years and love them immensely. I would do anything for them to make them comfortable. I am currently taking care of my mother and my pets so I am available anytime to care for other pets. Anything they need I can do. They are most important to make them feel comfortable and happy I take care of their needs, whatever makes them happy and comfortable. They are my one priority. I can adapt to any environment. I Love animals
About: My friends have always come to me first for any kind of help with dogs (general advice, training, walking, sitting). I used to be a volunteer dog walker at the Humane Society. I mostly work from home on my own schedule so I’m quite flexible mid-day to come play with your pup! I’m also a very easy going person. In my home: I live on an open acre amongst the vineyards by the lake, so I always have to keep dogs on leash around my yard. However if they’re trained, I am happy to let them off leash to run, play and swim. I have the hose ready and lots of dog towels available. In a client’s home: it’s up to the client but I like to start with a short walk and see if the dog needs more exercise (younger pup), or just needs cuddles (senior dog).
About: I have taken care of my own pets our golden retriever with a chronic illness that required daily medication and frequent vet visits. I have also have a maine coon cross cat. I am currently attending college and finishing my criminal psychology degree in order to work security for public safety. I am flexible with my schedule and that allows me to work with pets. I will go to my clients home. I can walk and care for dogs of all sizes and I can check in on and provide play time for cats.
“Emily was outstanding!! Our kitty is 19 years old and not overly active, yet Emily got her up and about playing with her toys, vocalizing, nuzzling … it so warmed our hearts to see our kitty so happy. We loved getting the pics and updates daily. We felt 1000 percent happy with Emily’s care of our “baby!” She will be top of our list for pet sitting in the future. We highly recommend this very caring, attentive young lady … thank you Emily.”
About: I have been fostering dogs for the past 2 and a half years. Animals are a true passion of mine. I am experienced will all breeds. I have also taken dog training classes. I work most nights. So I am available during the day to check on your pets during the day while you are at work. I understand the feeling it’s great leaving them alone all day. I’m here to help. I care for all pets as they are my own. I love meeting new dogs cats and other animals as well. Pets are truly family members
“Tessa was so great when we left her to care for our cat. Even though her time got cut short because of some hiccups on my part, I felt so comfortable and confident that Kitchi was in good hands. Thank you so much!!”
“We are so pleased with the care that Nikki took with our German Shepherds! Our dogs were extremely well cared for and were very happy to have her play with them. Roeder and Roxy got lots of exercise and had fun with her. We had no worries or concerns, and very much appreciated the photos and consistent communication during our time away. We look forward to having Nikki come visit our dogs in the future. You are the best, Nikki!”
“Laura was incredible! During our meet-and-greet, she almost blew right by me (in the nicest way) in favor of meeting our Sadie. It is clear how much she loves dogs and Sadie (who is very skidding) warmed up to her easily. Laura communicated frequently to share photos and anecdotes while we were away. It was such a relief knowing Sadie felt safe and comfortable. I would give Laura 6 stars if I could! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”
“April is so great! She took excellent care of my cat who is very lovable and doesn’t like to be alone for too long. She sent photos and a perfect update after dropping by my house to care for him. I have asked her to come back already for another sitting! Thank you again”
About: Dogs must be dog friendly as we have a young, neutered very active 65lb male! He is not dominant/or aggressive but he is definitely ready to play. No small dogs unfortunately. I have owned, rescued and fostered dogs for over 25 years. My dogs have always been my heart. I have been around medium to large breeds, but I'm comfortable with small breeds also. Unfortunately our 60lb young, male may be far too rough for a dog under 25 lbs. I also adore cats, although I've never owned one. I can't have cats inside my home..but I am happy to care for/feed at your home during a drop in visit. Your dog will be treated as if they are my own! Your dog must be able to coincide with other dogs while in our care. We have a young male, neutered boy who loves to play and loves other dogs. I'm home the entire time your dog is in my care, and if I did need to run out for an errand, I will check with you as to how you prefer your pet to be safely alone. Our home is temperature regulated, the energy is calm and we have a great property for exercise or lounging by the lake. Our neighbor's dogs do come onto our property periodically, so please let me know if this is a problem. Your pet's stay will be far more comfortable than any luxury style suite or commercial boarding facility. They will have my full attention and TLC throughout the day, with plenty of outside time! I will keep in contact via text and phone the entire time I have your pet in my care, while sharing photos. I know and understand the anxiety a pet owner has while being away from their pet. I watch the way a person treats their pets as I think it says a lot about who they are! I do have 2 older children, one lives with me. Both of my kids have grown up with animals and adore them. I have worked in special education for years and also have owned my own business. I currently am an online college student, studying for my Master's Degree in social work and a real estate agent. When your pets stay with me, I am home with them. I'll assure your sweet pup is well looked after and comfortable while in my care! Our home is your pet's home while they are my guest. They are treated as family and have free run of the home as you wish. If your pet needs to be crated while here, please let me know beforehand.
