I wanted to say,We had peace of mind knowing our animals were being well cared for and we could concentrate on our vacation. We could not have ask for anyone better to stay at the house and take care of our two dogs. I know it wasn’t easy with our dog Mylie’s separation anxiety but from our meet and greet to the last day pet sitting Isabel was great. She sent daily updates and photos. We will gladly recommend Isabel to all our friends and family. Thank you again Isabel 🐶

Pixie was amazing with our 2 dogs and house sitting while we were away for the weekend. She kept in constant communication sending updates, pictures and even telling us when she had to leave and how long she would be gone. I honestly dont think I worried once about them or our house! We already have her booked again for our next trip.

I had an excellent experience with Crystal as both a pet and house sitter. From the start, her communication was clear, timely, and reassuring—she kept me updated regularly and was always quick to respond to any questions. It made being away from home much less stressful. Crystal proved to be incredibly reliable, showing up exactly as scheduled and following all care instructions carefully. I could tell she took her responsibilities seriously, not only ensuring my pets were well cared for but also keeping the house in great condition. I highly recommend Crystal to anyone looking for a dependable and thoughtful pet and house sitter.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs ever since I was a kid, and I have experience with taking care of many different breeds, young and old. I love animals and will do everything I can to make yours comfortable and happy. Work is currently slow, so I have the time to give your pets all the attention they need. I am available anytime throughout the week and most weekends. I have two friendly dogs that would love to keep yours company. I do not have a fenced yard, but walk them on my private lane often, and take them to the dog park. My pets get fed twice a day, but I can feed yours as often as you’d like - they also have some treat throughout the day.

Sophia was absolutely wonderful! She stayed in our home with our 2 dogs and 1 cat while we were away for 10 days. She is dependable, responsible and trustworthy, she was also very easy going with all of our pets wants and needs. She sent us updates and photos regularly and was quick to respond to our messages we sent to her. Our cat and dogs were well taken care of and so very happy while we were gone. Our home was also very well taken care of, she collected our mail and took out the trash. We will be using Sophia again in the future for drop ins and in home stays.

About: With a decade of experience loving and caring for pets, my goofy dog ensures every pup enjoys walks, cuddles, and plenty of friendship and fun Flexible dog care that fits your pup’s day + built-in playdates, walks, meals, cuddles, and plenty of tail-wagging fun with my playful dog, she demands it. When I care for pets in a client’s home, I make sure each animal feels safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I follow each pet’s usual routine for feeding, walks, playtime, and medications so everything stays as familiar as possible. I also have a friendly pup of my own who loves play dates, which can be a great option for well-socialized dogs who enjoy extra company. I take time to bond with every pet, give them plenty of attention, and keep the home tidy and secure. My goal is for clients to return to a happy pet, a cared-for home, and complete peace of mind.

Taylor was a last minute lifesaver because I accidentally booked the wrong dates with our regular in home dog sitter. Outside of this, Taylor did an awesome job with our three rambunctious dogs, sent updates with pictures and even vacuumed before she left. We can’t wait to rebook with Taylor!
