“Kat is Amazing. This was her first visit with our dog Fergus and je had a great time. She arrived at our agreed time and took wonderful care of our boy. We will definitely be using Kat again to care for our boy.”
About: I’ve been pet sitting on and off for the last twenty years. I have two dogs with disabilities, a deaf cattle dog and an anxious sharpei-boxer with GI issues. I understand dogs and connect easily with many kinds of animals. I’m comfortable giving medications and working with reactive/anxious animals. My work is remote, freelance, and very part-time. My schedule is very relaxed and open. I prefer to spend time with my pets or others’ pets. When I enter a clients home I’m there for the animals. I’m mindful and respectful of their property and space. If I’m there for a walk, I’ll get the pup harnessed up and ready to go as soon as possible, according to the needs of the dog. If I’m there for a drop-in I’ll make sure I do what I’m there to do.
About: I've worked with newborn kittens to geriatric dogs and have loved every minute. Initially, I watched my friend's animals when they went away. Referrals had me working around the whole neighborhood. When I moved, I wanted to recreate the network of animals and people I loved, but had other responsibilities to prioritize. Now, I have the availability to pursue pet sitting again. My schedule is flexible, and I can be available any morning, afternoon, or evening to fit your needs. I'd be happy to stop by or video chat before you leave to coordinated introductions. I care for pets in their own home. I cannot board animals. I'm careful to keep the key on its own key ring so it doesn't get mixed with my personal keys. I'm happy to use cleaning tools/solutions that are available in the home so as not to agitate any sensitivities if mess cleanup is needed.
“Elizabeth was extremely caring and responsible for our two cats during a month long trip during the winter (including bad weather). We would definitely recommend her for providing care for any fur family members.”
“Thank you Rachel for taking such good care of Axel for us! We know he’s a big boy and difficult to handle. We would love for you to come back again and help us out!”
“Thank you, Lexi, for another amazing time with Joy! Even though it was a hot day, you always have fun together and Joy perks her ears every time we say you're coming over. Thank you again for taking such great care of our girl!”
“This was the first time that Bridget took care of our senior citizen kitty, Lilly. Lilly usually runs & hides from people & noise. However…she let Bridget pet her on the very first visit! I was really surprised that Lilly didn’t hide under the bed! I think Bridget is a cat whisperer. Lilly even let Bridget pet her belly! We were so happy that Lilly accepted Bridget instantly. Bridget took great care of our Lilly & our home, followed the directions that were given, turned lights on & off, even brought in unexpected packages, cleaned up around Lilly’s litter, took lots of good photos of Lilly, so we knew exactly what mood she was in (happy), gave us daily detailed updates on how Lilly was doing, etc. Bridget visited Lilly the same time am & pm every day. She was punctual & got back to me when I would text her. It was such a relief & peace of mind that Lilly was getting love from Bridget while we were away. We appreciated everything that Bridget did for our Lilly. Our first time with Bridget was awesome & Lilly gives Bridget her paws of approval with 4 paws up! Lilly has a new friend & we will definitely rebook with Bridget!”
“Zania is an exceptional dog keeper! She’s so thoughtful about my boy SAMSON! He wasn’t feeling his best today and she took all the right precautions and some. Thank you so much.”
About: I’ve always had a dog in my life, and I can’t imagine it any other way. Caring for dogs comes naturally to me, and I genuinely love getting to know each dog’s unique personality. Your pup will get plenty of attention, affection, and care—just like they would at home. I’m a full-time registered nurse and lifelong dog lover offering doggy daycare and overnight boarding in my home. My home features a large fenced-in yard for safe play and, during the summer months, supervised pool time for fun and cooling off. With my nursing background, I’m attentive, reliable, and comfortable following routines or administering medications if needed. Your dog will enjoy a loving, safe, and comfortable home while you’re away—and you can relax knowing they’re in caring hands. Flexible daily daycare and weekend overnight boarding in a safe, loving home. Dogs enjoy full access to the house and fenced yard, with a large garage play and resting area coming soon. Play, relaxation, and lots of attention included!
