Sheryl is the definition of an animal lover! She has 30+ years of experience caring for her own animals as well as those of friends and family. She has experience with dogs with high-energy, anxiety, and a wide array of personalities. She has cared for dogs of all ages from young puppies to elderly. I trust her implicitly with my two dogs (who are truly my babies!) - you won't regret having Sheryl as your pet sitter!

About: It would be an honor to care for your babies while you are vacationing, working or visiting family! I’m a vet tech and with me as a part of your team, you would have no need to stress. I am very skilled in medication administration, behavior, mental and physical stimulation, and of course I’ve been told that my petting skills are top tier. Let your pets be the judge! I’m currently working part time so I have plenty of time to help! Message me to talk about scheduling if you are interested thank you I myself have 4 dogs at my families home, so I will be traveling to clients homes. Safety is key when it comes to working with animals. A leash and collar will always be worn when outside, as environments can be unpredictable. I will not be allowing random animals to play with my clients babies, as my job is to protect the safety and well being of the animal under my care. Medications will always be administered with efficacy and on schedule. Clients will never have to worry if their pet is getting the proper care when I am pet sitting!

Julie looks after my dog, Magnus, and does an amazing job. She treats him like family, making sure he gets plenty of fresh air and exercise and is fed on his schedule. Magnus gets all excited when he sees her and I know he is in good hands.

I am Alex’s mother. I am proud to say that he is one of the most caring people I’ve ever known. We have always had a menagerie of assorted animals. Alex has gotten along with all of them and been active in their care. Now that my husband and I are retired we have been doing some traveling. The only person I trust to take care of them is Alex. He stays in touch with us the whole time we are gone to let us know they are doing well.

We had a sitter that had to cancel in the middle of her stay and Teri stepped right in and took care of everything. She had great communication with us and showed how great our dogs were doing. When we came home the house was in great shape and the dogs were doing fantastic! I will be using Teri again in the future.

Safety is my top priority! I ensure a secure environment by carefully pet-proofing spaces, following dietary guidelines, and keeping a close watch during any/all playtime and outdoor activities. I also take a sustainable approach by using eco-friendly products and minimizing waste to create a healthier environment for pets and their families. My goal is to create harmony and a stress-free experience for both pets and their owners, fostering a sense of trust and reliability every step of the way! Whether it's daily walks, training sessions, enrichment activities, overnight stays, or specialized care, I am committed to treating every pet like family.

Lucy is reliable and connects with dogs immediately! She walks our Rottweiler a few times a week. When ever Lucy shows up to take Koda for a walk, he is immediately wagging his tail and giving her kisses and then waits at the door for her to go on their walks. Thankful to have Lucy walk our big goof ball a few times a week! He also loves car rides with Lucy as they stop once a week for puppachinos.

About: I have had pets my whole life. My pup is like a fur baby to me and I’d treat yours like my own. I enjoy going on long walks throughout the day and lots of love in between. I will be home full time. Currently working from home doing various tasks. So your pet would not be left alone for long periods of time. Fur friends are allowed on anything they can fit on if allowed by you. I do have a dog she is about almost 8 and fixed.

Grace is 100% reliable with excellent communication...quick to respond to any outreach. She follows a consistent schedule with regular visits and lots of outdoor and play time. She incorporates dogs specific care..for example, I have one older dog who takes medication with his meals, and two others that must be separated when they eat. I travel worry free knowing how responsible Grace is. When we return, the dogs are always calm and happy.

Myleigh has always had a love for animals, big or small. When she was younger she would talk about wanting to be a vet or just anything to do with taking care of animals. She'd make a great sitter for anyone who's looking for someone kind and loving towards any animal and has experience with dogs, cats, and many other pets.
