“Second time booking with Bryanna, I really appreciate the time she gives to care for my cat ghost and all the cute pics I get during the day.”


“Emma and family were great! She looked after both our old bird dogs and took great care with them. It was a really good feeling to know our ol’ kids were safe and well cared for while we were away. Thank you so much Emma!”


“First I want to say thank you Monica!! At the last minute we needed a sitter for our young little fur baby and Monica was so wonderful and worked with me and was able to take care of him. More than take care of him but love him. He had so much fun and made puppy friends. Amazing experience 😁”


“Jennifer did a wonderful job of caring for Buddy she is very loving and caring. I give her the highest review. You can confidently leave your pets with Jennifer and know that they are safe and well loved!”


“He made my dog feel safe & comfortable right away, which is great seeing how she is scared of everything. She also requires eye washes and drops 4 times a day. I had no worries that they make sure that. He”


“Tony was wonderful with our dog, Louie. He kept in regular communication throughout Louie’s stay, which gave us peace of mind. We felt comfortable and confident leaving our dog in Tony’s care and would use him again.”


“My Yorkie seemed to have a calm and pleasant stay with Melissa. She sent pictures and kept in touch about how our dog was doing through the 4 days we were away. Though I forgot his fresh food, he felt comfortable enough with her to eat his regular food. I was worried about him eating as he needs to gain weight. Her home is beautifully set up for dog sitting, with a nice fenced yard. She let him be comfortable on her furniture, and gave him his medicine during a thunderstorm. I would highly recommend Melissa.”


“Shawna and her family were so great with Fusilli! We will definitely be bringing our dog back again! They have tons of space for your family pet to run around and have a great time!”

“Maria watched my puppy, it was the first time I left him and first time he ever stayed with anyone else. She did amazing! Kept me up to date even though my responses were limited due to cell service. She made him feel at home and I knew he was well watched over. 10/10 would recommend to anyone!”


“Kitoko had a great time staying with Jim and Linda. They sent regular pictures and updates so I felt secure that Kitoko was happy and healthy.”



“Left both of my dogs with Olga for a week while out of town. I'm always nervous to leave my dogs being that they're like family but Olga genuinely made me feel comfortable with leaving them from the start. She supplied tons of pictures, was incredibly kind and professional. I wouldn't hesitate to leave my pets with Olga again.”


About: I have volunteered for years at animal rescues. I am well experienced in pet care, especially good at giving medication. I'm caring, loving and attentive. I have a six year old daughter who will not be caring for your pets, but is very respectful, well behaved, gentle and loving towards animals. I am self employed from home so I will always be around. I have one six year old girl who is well behaved and very loving and respectful of pets. I care for them in my home, which is cat friendly and clean. No outdoors for cats. I am always home so they'll never feel lonely.
