Brianna was a wonderful pet sitter! She spent plenty of time making sure that my cats were taken care of. She left detailed notes after each visit. I don't think my cats even missed me while I was gone!

Katie did a phenomenal job checking in on our cat! Each visit, she took a nice handful of photos, provided detailed notes on the visit, and spent quality time with our grumpy old lady, determined to win her over. She was also very tidy and washed out previous dinner bowls unprompted.

Paige has been wonderful with our two unique dogs! One is high energy and wild and our other dog is an elderly sleepy guy and they both have been well taken care of and happy with their daily visits. She is communicative and trustworthy!

Kitties were happy and mail was waiting for me inside. I had to come home sooner than expected due to illness and Sam agreed to early cancellation. Appreciate the flexibility.

Rachel is a wonderful cat sitter! My cats were very happy and well taken care of, and even Bella, who is very shy around new people, warmed up to her. Rachel was also very easy to talk to and sent daily updates.

Great communication and flexible with drop in times. I can tell she loves animals and truly cared about my dog while I was away. I would definitely ask her to pet sit again!

About: I have plenty of pet care experience from my own pets and taking care of other pets as well. My experience ranges from dogs all the way to fish so I can take it all. I currently work at Kroger, but I’m looking to have some extra money so I can plan to start moving out. My work days are outlined on the calendar. I have a dog of my own who I care for along with my family. For client homes it will depend on the service but I will do my best to care for your pet as best as possible.

Caitlin was an awesome pet sitter for our recent 2-week vacation! She sent before and after photos for each visit that gave me an idea of how my cat ate while we were away. Caitlin took the time to give our cat some lap time and petting, which helped ease her loneliness while we were gone. I will use Caitlin again on our next trip!

About: I am a veterinarian who has dedicated her life to caring for animals. I have worked with animals from a young age, including many hours working in vet offices in high school leading up to college and vet school (became a licensed vet in 2020). I am quite comfortable with caring for animals who need medications administered, or more intense levels of care while their owners are away. Working with animals brings me joy and peace, and making sure they are happy and well cared for is my life mission. I believe in fear free handling, and I am happy to work with animals who do not trust unknown people. I am a licensed veterinarian but I am currently in grad school so I am very flexible. I can be home all day if needed, and can provide close supervision. I have a 3 year old female German Shepherd (very friendly!) and cats (mostly outdoor). I have the ability to keep my dog separate if needed but she loves playing with other dogs! I have a full sized truck and the ability to transport animals with me safely. I have 2.5 acres of fenced land for dogs to run and play as well as a small fenced in section adjacent to the house. A pet door offers come and go access to the house. I am free to drop in during the week or board animals for extended periods, and if your animal needs medications administered as part of their care I am very capable. I am comfortable handling large dogs (I have a lot of practice in my line of work as a veterinarian). I am also comfortable with young animals, cats, older animals, and any animal requiring high levels of care.

Gracie has gone above and beyond for my dog Beckley. She is very committed to making sure that my timid little girl is fear-free and unstressed. I highly recommend Gracie and am looking forward to working with her in the future to ensure my dog has the best experiences with her knowledge of training and compassion for animals.
