“Awnna did an amazing job caring for our two dogs and we will definitely have her back! Very responsible and let us have updates immediately to know how they were doing.”

“Thank you for taking such wonderful care of our kitties! Mckenna was wonderful throughout the whole process - it was just easy. Great communication leading up to our vacation and during. We’ve got two cats: an older one, who is a bit more shy, and a younger one, who is rambunctious and pretty friendly with strangers. Mckenna was wonderful with both. She took the time with our older one to help coax her out of her shell, and she gave our littlest one lots of play time and snuggles. She gave great, detailed report cards that included pictures each day she came over. I’d definitely book with her again!”

About: I have been a dog momma and lover for years. They are my world and I am theirs. Yours will be taken care of at the same level I care for my own! I am sincerely drawn to dogs when I see them. They've got so much love and joy to offer this world, how could you not? I have 3 labs currently and have trained all of my dogs from babies on up. We have almost always maintained a 3 dog household, they get walks everyday so long as the weather permits and plenty of playtime. Rest assured, your pup will be taken care of in the same respect and manner as I care for my own. I work from home so can make time for lunch time appointments if close enough to my home, I work until 5 so can be available in the evenings until 9pm, except for Wednesdays I have volleyball either at 6:30 or 7:30, but can still make appointments work in there. Also around most weekends except for family events here and there and two vacations we take a year. :) I protect them with my life. I love my babies so deeply and am so thankful I work from home so I get to be with them everyday. Yours will be treated no different. Dogs have so much love and joy to offer the world and they only deserve the same in return.
About: Finishing up my Navy career as a Military Working Dog Handler. I did this for 5 years and loved training the dogs. I currently work from home which allows me more time for taking care of your pets! I have experience with all types of dogs along with emergency care training and basic medical needs. Any questions or special requests don’t hesitate to ask! I currently work from home so my schedule has become quite flexible. I am available most days and times. If you ever need to make changes I am almost always able to accommodate. If I leave I do crate our dog at home. We do have a fenced front and back yard. The back yard has a taller fence than the front yard. On nice days I like to sit outside with the dog(s) while they run around and enjoy some sun.

“We’re so grateful you were able to take Ellie out for us and give her extra love while we were gone. We were crazy busy so I didn’t get to message you last night, but I didn’t check her report card quick when it got sent and everything was perfect! Thank you so much.”

About: Ever since I was a baby, I’ve always had a pup in my family. I love dogs all shapes, sizes and ages. I have done walking, drop in visits, and house sitting for long trips. I currently have a one year old girl at home; my sweet and goofy Mabel. I’ll love your pup as I love my own! I’m now working part-time, so my schedule is fairly flexible. I am most available during the afternoons and evenings the weekdays. Weekends are possible if needed. I am open to whatever your pet needs! If they need feeding, walking, or just some spoiling of treats and love, I am more than happy to provide.
“April came over in kind of a last minute scenario, but she still made it work and we came home to a very happy puppy dog later that day! April got Roxy all of her medications, fed her and loved her as I would of if I was home. I work for the railroad and have a wild schedule, and April was there to save the day! I highly recommend April; your pooch will love her!”

“Ashley always does an outstanding job with Lincoln. Lincoln is very comfortable going on walks with Ashley, taking breaks, feeding and playing with him. We are fortunate to be able to have someone as reliable as Ashley to take care of Lincoln when we are gone!”

“Angie did such an amazing job with our two kitties while we were away on our trip. She did a few drop in visits for us and followed all of our instructions perfectly. She even stopped by before our trip to do a meet and greet with us and the kitties. It made us feel so relieved knowing that they were safe and in good hands while we were away. She also sent us the cutest photos of them! I would highly recommend Angie if you are looking for someone to watch your pet. She is very trustworthy and caring. We will definitely be hiring her again in the future!”

“Emily and her family are by far the BEST sitters I have ever had! They are so sweet, communicative, flexible, and knowledgeable. I hope to use them every time I need extra help with my buddy.”

“Shatoria was so great with my cats. She is very responsive and a great listener. I had a lot of changes in care instructions, and she handled everything patiently and without any issues. She kept me updated, followed all the details carefully, and made me feel completely at ease while I was away. I could tell my cats were well cared for and comfortable with her. I would absolutely trust her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and attentive pet sitter.”

“Hailey did amazing the pups were happy and we were happy. We only cut our trip short because I got sick but we will definitely be using her again. Thank you Hailey for taking care of Luna and Kane.”
