“Samia is always wonderful with my two furry kids, Miss Booties and Mr. Bojangles. She writes great informative notes and follows my instructions exactly and sends wonderful pictures so I don’t miss them quite so much. I recommend her to care for your babies, too!”
“Brittne has taken great care of our two cats this past week. She drops in at our house once a day, She sends daily updates and pics to help ease our minds while we are away. Highly recommend her services.”
“Our 20 year old finicky cat loved Tisha from the minute she met her. It was a great fit for us. Tisha was dependable and our cat was very happy when we returned from our trip.”
“Lesley was wonderful! She took such great care of my two kitties. It made going out of town relaxing. I didn’t have to worry about the girls because I knew they were in good hands!

“I'm SO very glad that I found Yuli when I started looking for a dog sitter to do multiple drop ins when I am out of town. My 4 derelicts do better in their own environment when I am away, as they are all rescues and have varying levels of PTSD/neurosis/and anxiety when I vanish for a few days. She can do short term or long term stretches and is often available on zero notice. Cannot say enough wonderful things about the multiple times she has looked after my pack. I know that she is real and a legitimate "dog person" as I see how they respond and react to her....and they ADORE her. It allows my heart and anxiety to rest knowing that she is looking after them. I trust her endlessly and know that you can too.”

She sent lots of pictures of and updates, gave them lots of play and attention, and even put on cat TV for them ☺️ I felt very comfortable being away knowing they were in such good hands and absolutely recommend her!”

I have some experience with dogs of various temperaments and know how important it is to provide adequate supervision of pets, even within their own home or yard.
“Nana O. Did a great job checking in on our sweet Sadie while we were out of town! It made our travels super peaceful knowing we could depend on her to check in while we were gone! Highly recommend her and will book with her on future occasions!”
About: Throughout my life, I have had almost any animal that you can think of (dogs, cats, turtles, snakes, rats, mice, gerbils, and even a bat once). I am patient and caring, and will take great care of your animal. I am a veteran. I have been through extensive background checks for the military. You can rest assured that I am trustworthy. I hope that you will decide to let me take care of your pet. My yard is large, and fenced in. Your animal will have plenty of room to run around. The neighborhood is quiet, without much traffic. I would be happy to take a run with your dog if requested. It is a very safe area, and your dog will enjoy the scenery and variety of animals around here.
About: I’ve had many pets over the years (3 dogs and multiple cats). I’ve given medication to my dogs in pill form and have cleaned some litter boxes and puppy pads. I am capable of doing almost anything and everything you need! I’ve available Monday-Thursday since I am currently not working. I need some extra money for college which I start in August so anything helps! I’ll be available for a little bit so book me up! I have taken care of animals in a fenced yard and unfenced. I will clean litter boxes and accidents on the floor. I will refill the water and food bowls and give pill form medication if needed with instruction.
About: Whenever we visit family and friends with pets, their little critters always seem to gravitate to me for some unknown reason. I love it. Blessed I like to keep active when I’m not at work. I’m getting close to full time retirement soon and need something to keep me busy. I truly love animals. Ever since I was a young lad, I have had either a dog or cat as a pet and sometimes both at the same time. ☺️
