Brittany takes such great care of my kitties! She makes sure to keep me updated and sends pics and I can tell they love her, even my stand offish kitty who’s wary of everyone, lol. I’d recommend her to watch your fur babies too!

Lucia is the best! Not only fed and scooped litter but gave Walter, my friend’s cat, a lot of attention while my friend was in the hospital. So grateful for her care.

Jennifer was attentive and caring with our dog, Ben. She gave him the time and attention that we were looking for. Ben does not like being alone and she helped to ease his anxiety. Jennifer was in constant communication with messages, photos, and videos. She was also very fast to respond and answer questions. I would definitely use her again.

I'm someone else's home I'm happy to adapt to the owners needs and what is available for them.

Savannah did an absolutely amazing job when doing drop-in visits with my pups. She made me feel so comfortable about leaving my dogs in her care, which was such a relief. She genuinely cares about the animals and did everything possible to put me at ease while having to be away. Couldn't have been more grateful to have found her! Thank You Savannah!!!!

About: I’ve been caring for dogs for most of my life and truly love being around animals. From a young age, neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me to care for their pets while they’re away. I’m experienced with dogs of all sizes, ages, and energy levels, including puppies and senior dogs. I work from home, which allows me to be very flexible and present throughout the day. Pets in my care are rarely left alone and get plenty of attention, walks, playtime, and potty breaks. I’m able to accommodate regular routines, feedings, and any special needs, and I’m available for daytime care, drop-ins, and overnight stays depending on your pet’s needs. I provide a calm, safe, and structured environment for every pet in my care. I have two friendly, well-socialized dogs and always introduce new pets slowly and thoughtfully to ensure everyone is comfortable. I closely supervise interactions, follow each pet’s routine, and can crate your dog if needed. Whether in my home or yours, I prioritize safety, cleanliness, and clear communication, and I’m happy to send regular updates and photos for peace of mind.

About: I've taken care of bunnies, parrots, chickens, dogs, cats, and turtles. I will always make sure that your pet is well cared for and loved. I’m currently not working so I’ll have plenty of free time to watch your pets, play with them, walk them, and feed them. They will be well cared for. I have a small part of my yard fenced but there’s plenty of space for your pets to run around. I have a 4 chickens that roam around but I will lock them up if needed and I have a small senior dog.

Sofie did an excellent job taking care of our 2 dogs. Theo our one year-old Chihuahua and Sophie our 12-year-old Pomeranian. We were able to enjoy our vacation without any worries that she was giving them love and attention. She communicated daily and kept us up-to-date on her visits. We would highly recommend sofie and plan on asking her to watch our dogs again in June.
