Deborah regularly sits our sweet senior dog corn and recently stayed with him at our home for 7 days and 6 nights while we were on vacation. Her care was impeccable all around. She even stayed later the last day because of our late flight home to ensure corn was not left alone too long and was in good company. We can always rely on Deborah and highly recommend her to care for your furry family member.

We got home and our dog was happy to see us, but she was so calm. She was clearly so comfortable with Skylar. Skylar left our house clean. She is great! We will use her again.

About: Reliable and responsible cat and dog lover, I've been fostering dogs for over a year and have successfully placed 9 foster dogs. I've also helped take care of friend's and family's pets my whole life and I take dog training seriously. My pet care schedule is fairly flexible at the moment due to recent life changes. Please reach out with your questions and pet care needs! I have a livestock fence for supervised zoomies with fence-respecting dogs. My dog, Licorice, is playful and well-socialized, 2 dog-savvy cats and I often have a foster dog or 2 living with me.

Colin did a terrific job for us! His work ethic was evident from the very beginning as he took copious notes during our meet and greet. The dogs loved him and I had every confidence he was going to be a great sitter. We weren’t disappointed. Colin was confident and handled all the details of their medications, special diets and quirks with good humor and grace. Finally, Colin’s respect for our home was unmatched by any of our previous sitters. His attention to detail was so appreciated!

About: My husband Lee and I have years of experience providing drop-in visits and overnight pet care in clients’ homes, and we have plenty of repeat customers who trust us with their beloved pets. We’ve traveled all over the country and internationally sitting for animals. Lee is semi-retired and will be the primary caregiver, while one of us will provide overnight care. I’m extremely responsive and communicate in whatever way works best for you—with pictures, updates, and regular check-ins so you’re always in the loop. We care for your pets the way you would, and we’re especially skilled with anxious pets, meeting them exactly where they’re at. Your pets will receive all the love and attention they deserve in your absence. Some of our photos feature furry friends we’ve cared​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ I currently need to be online from 8:30 am to 5 pm, so wifi is required. I can do walks during the day with plenty of potty breaks. I care for your pet the way that you would. I respect your space and your rules about furniture, food, crating, and space. I'm totally flexible around your pets needs.

Renee did overnight stays with my baby and did a fantastic job! She sent frequent updates, including pictures, and he looked so happy. She spoiled him with lots of belly rubs, which are his favorite, so they were instant besties. We got back into town later in the day, and Renee kindly offered to swing back by and hang out with him a little longer so he wasn’t by himself so long. We will definitely use her again.

Court was great to communicate with, and very professional. We didn’t end up using Court’s services during this time period due to our family matter, but hopefully in the future!

About: ive had a couple of dog growing up in my childhood a sweet old black lab and a super crazy dingo.. in my free time after school and during summer i used to walk them, no amount of walking could satisfy my dingo.. id have her pull my bike to get all her energy out since we didnt have any closed in areas she could run off in.. ( i dont do this anymore! i realize its not very safe! she absolutely loved it for sure though) i love pups big and small old and energetic theyre all very unique and id love some new friends to get me out of the house. id ask you beforehand of course if youd be okay with them swimming, theres a pond i can bring them to after walking to cool off at. our backyard is fenced! i have two cats, so id like to know how your dog reacts around small creatures, if they cant be in contact i can always but them into a room while the dog is over. most likely theyd be outside! lots of shade and id keep em well hydrated and happy :3 i currently have been on a job hunt since what feels like forever, my schedule is very. very open.. since i dont have a car, drop off would be ideal, if your close enough to walk to i can do that too! weekends are the only time id be able to pick up your pooch my cats get their waters filled and cleaned almost daily, lots of love of course and are very spoiled. i dont have any dogs at the moment, so of course id love to chat about what youd expect and need for your lovely pup! im good with communication and friendly, special needs id be extra attentive to. im very good at remembering small things, though id still write em down incase!

About: I bring a unique level of structure, energy, and reliability to pet care through my experience as a college coach. My daily work revolves around building routines, paying attention to small details, and making sure individuals are supported and performing at their best — and I carry that same approach into caring for dogs. I am highly dependable and organized, so you can trust that your dog’s schedule, feeding routine, and exercise needs will be handled consistently. I also bring an active lifestyle, which is great for dogs that need engaging walks, playtime, and attention. What sets me apart is the level of care and awareness I provide. I pay close attention to behavior, energy levels, and any changes, and I prioritize clear communication so you always feel confident while you are away. My goal is to make sure your dog feels comfortable, safe, and well cared for at all times My schedule is currently wide open following the end of the swim season, which gives me plenty of flexibility for walks, drop-ins, and overnight care throughout the week and weekends. I understand how important it is to trust someone with your dog. I create a safe, comfortable environment where your pet feels secure and cared for at all times. I pay close attention to their needs, keep a watchful eye during walks, and always make sure you are updated so you can relax knowing they are in good hands.

Iris was absolutely great with our pit bull mix, who has anxiety, and a handful of our feathered friends. She was very flexible with our scheduling needs and we would use her again with no hesitation.

Evelyn was awesome with our two Frenchies, Homer and Lorelei! She followed all our instructions, sent lots of photo updates throughout the day, and was super easy to communicate with. Everything went really smoothly — we’d definitely have her watch them again!

Ari was amazing. Our dog is a precious shelter dog and has some of the shelter dog nuisances and Ari understood exactly how to deal with him. I could tell he had a good time when we got home.

About: I have had dogs all my life and have taken care of my own since I am old enough now. I watch dogs and cats for my neighbors and grandparents. I like spending time outdoors with my dogs and walking them and throwing the ball. I have cat sit before and was really easy and fun to me! My schedule is kind of wonky right now as I am in college, but I am free on weekends and some weekdays whenever you might need me! My dog takes meds right now for seizures so I am experienced at giving dogs medicine. Very responsible animal lover I have always had animals in my life. I am good about having the house clean when there’s a fluffy shedding dog in it.
