I could not recommend Judith more, she was so accommodating, easy to deal with and even came twice before she was booked to dog sit to get to know our nervous rescue dog. Judith sent regular updates whilst we were away ensuring that we didn’t have to worry and left the house immaculate when she left. We have already booked Judith for our next trip. Thank you so much!!

Lydia has been such a joy to work with. She truly loves animals and cares about your pet. She was eager to learn our boy Oscar’s personality and made sure he felt special. She frequently updated us and sent lots of great pics. She was also very respectful of our home. Lydia is kind enthusiastic and very professional. Your fur baby will be in good hands.

Thomas was great. Our dog is really low key unless he’s by himself so he just needs someone to stay here with him. Thomas was gracious to take on the boring gig. But Butcher was happy and calm when we got home which is fantastic.

About: Hi! My name is Renah and I love animals! I have had cats and dogs (and more) of all different shapes, sizes, and needs throughout my whole life so I’d say I’m quite experienced with pets. I am currently a full time cosmetology student so my schedule is pretty tight but I am more than happy to help whenever possible. Mondays are always available all day, Tuesday-Friday after 6pm (roughly) and Saturday-Sunday at all hours as long as I know far enough in advance. I do have a typical job I’m at Saturdays and every other Sunday but if necessary I can try to move things around. If I am working I will be unavailable from 9am-7pm. If you are curious about holiday breaks please contact me! :) I have no problem staying overnight for pet/house care. If you or your pet have any special needs/wants I am happy to keep up your usual routine as needed. :)

Aly was so communicative and took extra care to interact and snuggle with our cats. We really appreciated her willingness to sit for us last minute and enjoyed our trip knowing she was updating us with pictures of her sleepovers with our girls and Pookie. She was able to administer insulin for our diabetic cat and ensure her dietary needs were met. We were so lucky to find her!

Charles is awesome. He is sooo generous with meeting me and Woody before my trip. Charles was excellent with giving me an update during his stay at my house with Woody.. Woody loved Charles & they got along fantastic. I would recommend Charles to anyone with a pet! He was extremely respectful of my house, generous with his time & Woody loved him. There is a 💯 % I will ask him to watch Woody again!

Celina was great with our two pugs! One of them is very people shy, and she had him snuggling with her in no time! She kept us informed as to how our fur babies were doing throughout the weekend. Will definitely use her again!

About: I have taken care of dogs for 15 years. I started working at a daycare in 2011 and then progressed to working at two different animal hospitals. My last job I worked at the an animal hospital for 10 years. I was also doing pet sittings and walkings on the side. I have experience with both young and senior fur babies. I am currently not working and have been staying busy with pet sittings. So am looking forward to meeting new fur buddies and make fun memories! Hi! I’m a responsible and caring pet sitter who treats every pet like my own. I live in a townhouse with my friend. He owns a Chihuahua mix who is friendly with other dogs. While we don’t have a fenced yard, safety is always my top priority, and dogs are kept on a leash at all times. If a dog is not dog-friendly, I take extra care to avoid high-traffic areas during walks. When a fenced yard is available at a client’s home, I always supervise outdoor time. I carefully follow all feeding instructions and take allergies seriously. I have experience administering oral medications but do not give injections.

We had an excellent experience with Julie over the Christmas weekend. She took wonderful care of both our dogs and cats and kept our home clean and well-maintained while we were away. One of our dogs was recovering from surgery and required special attention, and she handled his care with great diligence, including treating a hot spot on his paw. It was very reassuring to know our pets were in such capable and compassionate hands. We would absolutely recommend her to other pet owners and would happily book her again.

My little Lexi has anxiety and of course there was a thunderstorm during the time I was gone. Alex took really good care of her and made sure she was comfortable. She even suggested I get a "Thundershirt" to help ease her anxiety. Shows she really cares and would definitely recommend her as a dog sitter. I have already requested she come back for additional stays :)
