Ray took photos of my cat while he was here with cute descriptions. The photos reassured me of my cat's well being. Ray is a very attentive sitter and punctual too.

Diane was such a blessing. She has a really sweet and caring demeanor and we knew right away she was the right sitter to watch our fur babies. In our week long trip she took great care of our home and 2 dogs and kept in touch throughout our trip. We feel relieved to have found her and will definitely rebook with her. Thank you Diane!!

Andrea did a phenomenal job! She has exceptional communication skills. I was constantly updated with great pictures of my happy pups. She spent plenty of time with them. She went above and beyond to ensure they were well taken care of and loved. I am always a bit nervous leaving Teddy and Ace for several days but she made it a seamless vacation. I am confident your pets will be in good hands! I would recommend Erika to anyone.

This was my 1st time leaving my dog for a long weekend and I couldn’t have chosen a better caregiver for him. My Murphy is a rescue & has some anxiety issues but Jo handled him with patience, understanding and love. She tapped in to her knowledge of dogs and put both myself & Murphy at ease. She tried a few new toys/treats with him which he loved and sent me plenty of pics and videos of Murphy throughout the weekend. I would highly recommend her and would definitely use her services again.

About: I have been a dog owner my whole life. I've had breeds from chihuahuas to pit bulls. I love dogs they brighten my day.I am the proud dog dad of my Pomeranian (cyrus) age 5 I've had him since he was a pup and he lives in harmony with my brothers pit bull which I also brought home as a pup he's 15, I love all animals , my life has practically been a zoo. I also like to rescue animals when I get the chance.I am trying make a career out of caring and helping animals so I am applying to shelters so that I can care for animals full time. If you wish to know more don't hesitate to ask. My schedule is open at the moment so I have more time to spend taking care of your fur babies. I do pet sit, as well as check-ins and walks.I'm a dedicated animal lover with experience caring for pets of all shapes and sizes. I'm reliable, responsible, and passionate about providing the best possible care for your furry friends I know that for my dogs I provide the best possible food and hygiene care And I know that each individual pet requires specific needs and diets so I adhere to my clients preferences

Liz was awesome! We had our dogs sitter cancel at the last minute and were very stressed, Liz put all the worry at ease. She was communicative, and the dogs seemed like they didn't even realize we had been gone. Knowing that we could enjoy our trip because our dogs were safe and happy was amazing. Will definitely work with her again!!

About: My name is Daniella. I am 24 years old and working with animals is what my life is about. All my life I have had my own pets and I have also worked at an animal hospital for the past 8 years! I am a college graduate with a degree in Biology and I’m here to make sure your fur babies are happy and safe! I have lots of experience with animals and I love any kind. You have a cat? No problem! 5 dogs? (It’s okay I do too!) consider me to watch your lovely animals! I promise that I won’t let you down! I am currently a full time vet tech! I am free pretty much every Sunday and Wednesday and Saturday afternoons after 3pm. I am off some Mondays as well. I would love to be able to work with your schedule as well! Bringing pets into my home won’t always be an option for me but I am more than happy to stay at your home to watch your fur babies! I have 2 dogs and 2 cats myself so bringing in other pets does not always work well for my little guysz

About: I raised two dogs myself, potty trained them, and taught them simple commands. I have babysat for families who own dogs and have cared for them as if they were one of the children. I love to run, and have taken my own dogs running, if you think that would be something your dog would like to/ can do! I am currently a senior at UD, so I have a flexible schedule. I have random classes throughout the week, but can work with clients on how to fit their needs into my schedule. I have a ton of availability on Tuesday, Friday and Sundays; I also am available between 11 and 3 on Thursdays, as well as anytime before 10 on Wednesdays! I care for dogs deeply. In my own home I know my pets well and am able to trust them to roam around freely, however I understand every pet is different, and when I am working for a client to care for their pet I am actively engaged with the animal to make sure they're not getting into anything they shouldn't be.
