“Absolutely wonderful stay for our pups. It was like a vacation for our two Maltese. They went swimming and plenty of outdoor time which they loved. Anneth communicated and even sent some fun photos. I highly recommend her. Thank you again Anneth.”
“Maurice is a fantastic pet sitter who goes above and beyond to make sure your animal is loved and cared for. I was hesitant to leave my puppy Oliver for a week to go on vacation but once I met Maurice and saw him interact with Oliver I knew he was the best person to watch him. Picture and video check-ins multiple times a day kept me up-to-date and reassured me Oliver was having a blast. I’ll be going to Maurice for all my pet-sitting needs in the future!”
“This is my second time booking with Caitlin and she’s absolutely amazing. She’s extremely kind, informative, and gives plenty of updates. She’s ever groomed Ace and I can tell he loves spending time with her and Lana. Her previous experience with dogs shows and I’m very appreciate of it. If you’re considering booking with Caitlin I would 1,000% recommend her over and over again. She truly does care for other pets as her own.”
“Good Feedback from sitters. Stay went well and I think my pup was happy to have friends during our vacation. I would use them again. They were very accommodating.”
“Jenny was great! Quick response time, super friendly, and great with the dogs. Her house was set up well to accommodate our two dogs and she had a great backyard for them to run around in. Will definitely use her again when the time comes. Highly recommend!”
“Keirra was amazing. She was quick to respond to my messages and sent me lots of pictures. My dog absolutely loved her and was very sad to leave Keirra. That showed me just how wonderful Keirra treated my dog. I would recommend her any day to anyone and will certainly use her again soon.”
“Ashely did a great job with Paisley. She kept us updated with pictures throughout the day and answered any questions we had. We’ll definitely book with her again, we also recommend her to anyone else!”
“Gabrielle rocks!!!!! My 2 babies came home smiling and happy🫶. I got pictures and videos daily and she made sure to keep them on their schedule. They now have Aunty Gabby for the 🥇! Thank you so very much.”
About: I’ve been around all kinds of pets since I was a child. Dogs are the best and I love spending time with them. I have years of experience dog/house sitting and would love to just hangout with dogs I am currently just in school and work part time here on campus. My hours are very flexible and there are plenty of parks here for your dogs to roam around. Just communicate what you need and I can provide I am open and flexible to whatever you and your dogs need. Communication is very appreciated and we will have a nice and fun time!
“Wonderful sitter She was very polite, Sadie and Sky loved her and came back happy, healthy and worn out. She kept us posted and sent pix all during their stay. Definitely recommend Nyasha for your pet needs. She even brought our pups home!! Thanks.”
About: I have experience caring for puppies and sick dogs. Potty training and nurturing back to health. I am very patient and loving. I am able to discern when there is a problem and when things are considered normal. I am in nursing school and I’m on a break or usually don’t have time for Normal jobs. This allows me to use my time to care for animals and make some money. I have three cats in my home they are brushed every other day, fed twice a day and their litter box is cleaned twice a day as well.
