7. Nathan T.
“Nathan watched our dog and two cats for a week while we were on vacation. He was AMAZING! Always kept us up to date on what was going on with our pets, took extra time to bond with our dog, Rigby, as Rigby is not very receptive to new people, and by the end of our vacation, they were best friends. We got updates and pictures every morning!! I can't say enough about how responsible, attentive, and caring he is. We're already planning our next vacation and have the peace of mind that Nate will be watching our fur-kids again!”
8. Thea J.
“Thea was the best!! She came right on time and gave Maggie a nice long walk. She seemed so happy in the pictures and our girl even gave her the infamous sad puppy face when she was leaving. That’s how we know she loves Thea!!”
9. Drew T.
About: As a lifelong animal enthusiast, I'm thrilled to turn my passion into a career. Recently, I said goodbye to my beloved childhood dog of 15.5 years, who taught me the value of dedication and senior care. Caring for him during his golden years, including managing daily medications, only deepened my love for animals. My friends and acquaintances took notice of my animal-loving spirit and began asking me to pet sit for them. Now, I'm excited to offer my services to you! With experience in caring for reptiles, chickens, and dogs, I'm confident in my ability to provide top-notch care. Raising chickens from baby chicks to healthy, thriving layers was a rewarding experience that taught me the importance of attention to detail and nurturing. Trust me to give your furry (and scaly) friends the love and care they deserve. Let's work together to create a happy, healthy environment for your beloved pets! I am currently dedicating my time to my business. I enjoy to play disc golf in my free time and I’m an avid Patriots football fan (don’t hate me for it) Your Pet's Home Away from Home I understand the importance of finding a trusted and loving caregiver for your furry friend. That's why I'm committed to providing personalized, one-on-one attention to your dog or cat when in the comfort of my own home or when in your home. Just like my beloved Otis, your pet will receive the utmost care and attention, tailored to their unique needs and preferences. Here's what you can expect: - A quiet, stress-free environment free from other animals and children - Customized dog walking schedules to suit your pet's needs and your preferences - Cozy sleeping arrangements - either snuggled up with me or in their own bed, whichever they prefer Trust me to give your pet the love, care, and attention they deserve.
10. Olivia G.
“Olivia is one of the most trustworthy, reliable, dependable, honest and conscientious people I've had the privilege of meeting in my life. Although I've only known Olivia for a very short time, it is evident that her kind and loving nature towards not just animals but all living beings reflects her true desire to protect, nurture and ensure the comfort of anyone or thing under her care. As a pet owner of four (two large breed dogs & two cats), I highly recommend Olivia for all of your pet needs including: in-home pet sitting (extended & short stays), walking, feeding, med-distribution, kind and gentle care, management of stressful situations, attention to detail, quick action under pressure, timely communication/accurate reporting. Should I have to travel out of town again in the future, Olivia will be the first person I think to contact!”
11. Theresa T.
“We love having Theresa back while she's home from school for her holiday break. My pup Molly loves Theresa so much and my husband and I both agree she gets the best care she could get with her! Theresa has become like family to us after using her the past year and a half. ❤”
12. Erika P.

16. Kelly R.
“Kelly was a great communicator on any slight changes needed to our walking schedule, and did an excellent job adapting to our middle aged dog's long and sniff filled walks. She also checked in about bringing her young (human) kiddo on the walks, which was exciting for us to make sure our dog will be used to strollers and kids for future walks. Highly recommend!”
17. Karla T.
