Kristi has the perfect home for a doggie vacation. Our pup was well cared for in her comfy house and had access to plenty of outdoor time in her fenced in yard. She kept us updated with pictures during his stay which was a nice touch.

We had a great experience with Michelle looking after our French Bulldog, Sunny. She did an excellent job and Sunny seemed happy and well-cared for when we returned. She was attentive, responsible, and made sure Sunny felt right at home. It's reassuring to know we have such a reliable sitter to trust. Highly recommended!

About: I combine patience, experience, and genuine affection for pets of all kinds. Whether it’s an energetic pup, a gentle senior, or a shy cat, I adapt to meet their needs and make them feel at home. Taking care of pets is part of my regular routine. I like to get outside and stay active by walking and running dogs, and I make sure to spend quality time giving pets the attention and love they deserve. It’s something I enjoy and look forward to fitting into my days. I prioritize safety and comfort above all when caring for pets. Whether I’m visiting your home or welcoming pets into mine, I will make sure the environment is clean, secure, and pet-friendly. I will also follow any specific instructions you provide and keep a close eye on your pet’s behavior to ensure they’re happy and safe at all times. Building trust with both pets and owners is important to me, so I communicate openly and am responsive to any needs or concerns.

Colleen was amazing from the beginning to the end. Very personable and friendly. She asked all the right questions and made me feel so comfortable leaving my baby with her. She listened to instructions and was very communicative with me during the whole thing. I even was able to drop him off earlier than planned and picked him up later with no problem. I would 💯 recommend her to anyone needing dog/cat care. Thank you so much for taking amazing care of Scotti while I was away. I will definitely reach out again! 😊

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life so at this point it’s second nature caring for dogs and I couldn’t imagine life without them. My family bred Yorkies while I was growing up so I helped my Mom with birthing and caring for the puppies as well as training them for their new homes. I’ve had several dogs over the years which has given me plenty of personal experience with all ages of dogs, rescue or puppy. My husband and I work from home and have a 3 year old female Havapoo (10 lb) who is very friendly. Our days revolve around taking her for walks and playing with her while we watch shows at night. We live in a condo and have a very small, open back yard. We typically use a long lead to let our dog out for bathroom breaks during the day. We take an hour long walk with the dog every day, but can walk again in the evening if needed. Our dog stays in a large pen overnight, we can crate or let your dog roam depending on what they are used to.

About: I had a cat before I entered elementary school. I begged for her and had her until I graduated high school. I love cats and our unique personalities I work full-time, however I can do nights and weekends or morning runs. I am surrounded by trails and beaches. Would be happy to be weekend dog sitting or morning evening runs & overnight I followed the clients lead on what the animal is used to regarding routine. At our home, we have 5 acres. It is not fenced, but we can provide a nice long line and the animal can supervise all the other animals (cats chickens ducks & my partner)

We used Martha's services during a very hectic move. Our 11 year old dog had just moved from her home and was very anxious and nervous. Martha was able to keep her very calm, take her on lots of walks and was able to get a very fussy dog to do her "business". We couldn't have been happier and we would definitely use Martha again. She clearly love dogs and they seem to respond very well to her. You won't be disappointed

About: I have taken care of dogs for most of my life, over 10 years now. I have looked after various sized dogs with different need. Family and friends have relied on me over the years to feed, walk and play with their pets, whilst also having overnight stays. Currently i am working part time, and have alot of free time to spend with your lovely pets! I am looking to walk, play with and look after them overnight when you are busy. Most of my availability is Monday-Thursday and also Sunday afternoons. I currently live in a large, cosy 2 bedroom flat which is very pet friendly. Although I do not have a garden i do have a communal grassy outdoor area, so toilet breaks can be often. I live a 5 minute walk from a local field where your dogs can run around until they burn their energy off!

Olivia was wonderful with our 10 week old German Shepherd puppy. It was my first time having to leave him at home while I worked and I was nervous about how he would do but Olivia communicated every step of the way, letting me know when she was on her way over to our house, when she arrived, and what they were up to throughout the day. I felt so reassured and it looked like he had a great time!! We will definitely have her over again when needed and I would recommend her to anyone!!
