“Julie was an exceptional cat sitter and house sitter, she went above and beyond to send pictures and play with with Ziggy. Our cat is over 15 years old and she made sure he felt comfortable and got lots of pets. I would highly recommend Julie and we'll be sure to book with her next time we go out of town and have to leave our much loved pet.”
“Sam did an outstanding job dog sitting for us! Sam was trustworthy, responsible, and genuinely cared about our dogs. Sam kept us updated with messages which gave us peace of mind while we were away. Highly recommend Sam to anyone looking for reliable and caring pet sitting!”
“Suede was so easy to work with. She made a point to meet me and my dog before finalizing the booking. It was clear she cares about the animals she watches and wanted to help as much as possible. I will certainly schedule with her again!”
About: Having had several dogs in my life and a dog training License I feel your animals would be at home with me as much as you I do not have a dog and I just enjoy dogs, attitude, company and motivation. They would allow me to care and earn some extra cash. They will be treated like a member of the family in your home. The parameters that you set up will be respected Either way, the animal will feel safe and at peace
