We can’t say enough good things about Cruz! They were so great with our reactive pup! Our pup didn’t even bark at Cruz, which is a first, and is a testament to how caring and great they are! We will definitely work with them again!

We had such a great experience with Vivian! My puppy loved her and she took great care of him and left the house in wonderful shape while we were gone. She sent regular updates and we knew our puppy was in great hands! Highly recommend Vivian.

Alexandra house sat for my elderly dog Coco for a week (in my home). She was a fantastic sitter. She was communicative, friendly, professional, and easy to work with. She worked with Coco's personality. I think that she is an animal person and it comes through in the great and responsive care she provided while we were away (ditto for her her husband). Her approach definitely put my mind at ease while we were gone. Thanks Alexandra!

This was my first vacation using a pet sitting service so I was really anxious but Laurena made me feel at ease especially after meeting her in person. I needed an overnight sitter for 3 days since I have one kitty who is super social and vocal and one who is the extreme opposite. Laurena is very calm and knows how to interract with distrustful kitties like my Sofia who is very averse to any slight changes to her routine. The constant communication and texts with pictures further helped me feel less worried and I was able to fully enjoy my vacation because of Laurena's professional and kind work ethics. I absolutely recommend Laurena and I will definitely be seeking out her services during my next vacation.

Karen took good care of our 2.5 year old Doberman. He has a lot of energy so it was great she took him on walks! She followed all of our instructions perfectly and gave us updates often. We really enjoy her taking care of our pup and plan to use her again !

Harold was easy-going and accessible in the planning process. He is kind, practical, and good with dogs. Our dogs received great care, and he was especially careful with our elderly dog, doing extra work to help her and clean up after her, which we really appreciated. We used Harold for three nights of house-sitting and we found our home was in good order and the dogs were calm when we got home. Very happy to have found him!

About: Having previously worked doing dog training at work and overnight care. Plus my time growing up with dogs and cats I am very comfortable caring and working with dogs and cats. I also have experience working with chickens, cows and goats. I am a college student and I am able to provide walking and care during the day and overnight supervision with pets on most nights. At home I make sure that the room and area that the pet is in is well cleaned and appraise for them. When I am at a clients house with their pet I make sure to respect all rules and patterns that the owner has as to not disturb there routine.

About: I’ve taken care of 4 dogs of my personal dogs 2 chihuahuas and 2 pit bulls when I was 9 years old. Throughout my years others have relied on me to help care for their bigger dogs. I currently have two cats that I care for. Pet care is extremely important to me so I fit it into my daily schedule. I feed my cats every morning, while I have 1 cat who uses the restroom outside I always let her out before she eats. When I get home from being out I clean the litter box of the cat that uses it. When it’s dinner time I like to think that my cats are a little spoiled so I take the time to set up their food how they prefer it. On weekends I like to take the indoor cat outside for walks since he is harness trained. I would care for the clients pet in their home by following the orders that the owner has for me. I would take all safety precautions needed to keep everyone safe.

About: I REALLY love dog. I've been a dog owner for over 20 years. I lost my last two dogs to cancer in 2017. I know how important dog walking is to pet owners. I walked my dogs everyday, sometime twice a day. I would love to fill the gap of dog walking in your home. I am available to walk part time and full time. I would prefer a set schedule. But I am open to drop in needs as well. I can work from your home. For over night stay, I have a back yard for dogs who need to be outside. I have a park around the corner from my house. If the dog is clean and house broken, they can stay in house
