1. Claudia A.

“I hesitate to write this because I want Claudia all to myself whenever we go away from now on! She is responsive, responsible, our house was as we left it and our pups and plants were well cared for and happy. Will definitely use her again and again as long as she’s willing!”


2. Ariana P.
About: I have grown up around dogs, specifically seniors who are on medication or are insulin dependant. I have experience with training as well, having trained my own service dog who went to college with me. I also have raised rabbits and guinea pigs for around 8 years and have shown them acrossed the country. At the moment I'm on break from college, I have a lot of avaliable time. I'm willing to work with you and make sure your pet gets all the attention they deserve! My own dog and I go for several walks a day and we play a in the lake. I have a long haired GSD so he gets groomed daily and loves to sleep in his bed! I plan to provide similar enrichment for your animals such as mind games on rainy days and lots of walks when it's nice outside.


3. Julia G.

“Julia was great, reliable, punctual, and respectful. She did a great job managing our dog's medications and reporting back with frequent updates.”


4. Ashley K.

“Ashley is incredibly patient and resourceful especially with with difficult pets. She is willing to work with your schedule and the pet's schedule in order to ensure that all involved parties are receiving the care and reassurance that they need. Our dog is wary of most visitors, but Ashley has gotten through to her!”


5. John G.

“John was fantastic! Our very shy dog with separation anxiety warmed up to him immediately, and our cat loved him too. He sent regular updates and pictures and took good care of the house. Plus he’s a vet! We felt so comfortable and knew our babies were in good hands!”


6. Joseph L.
“Joey watches my dog very often when I am working overnights and out of town! Louie loves when he comes over and when I say “Joey is watching him”. He is always very tired because they played so hard and always has enough food and water. Definitely recommend joey to watch your pet…treats them like his own!”




7. Patricia B.

“Patricia house-sat for 10 days with our dog, Charlie. Charlie was as happy as can be when we returned. Patricia kept in touch, sent updates and photos and knows a lot about dog care and educated us. We really appreciate Patricia’s kindness and loving care of Charlie and will definitely ask Patricia to help us again in the future”


8. Destiny W.

“Destiny did a great job taking care of our kitty. The videos she sent shows her playing with him which made me very happy!”


9. Heather W.

“Heather was wonderful with our senior dog, Pippin. Though he doesn't have a complex routine to follow, he's a quirky guy that likes to be VERY close to his person, is forgetful, and sometimes barky due to his age. Heather "got" Pippin right away. We felt she genuinely understood his habits and his singular approach to life. Heather sent just the right amount of updates and photos. Pippin was in good hands with Heather. We are very grateful to her and highly recommend her!”




10. Rachel D.

“Rachel was very communicative and went out of her way (literally drove an hour out of her way to meet Milo) to make sure he was well cared for. She left everything neat and tidy and I know Milo certainly enjoyed the one-on-one attention.”


11. Raven T.
About: Animal lover of all sorts. A family isn’t complete with a furry little or big four legged best friend. I have grown up all my life around animals dogs especially, now with children of my own I love to share that experience with them. Your dog or cat will be loved and care for just like you would take care of them. My goal is to ease their worry while you are working knowing they are having a great day themselves. Available and flexible times if needed . We run, we play and meet friends (if like to play with others dogs) long walks in the leaves or snow we come over in all weather. Pick me and your dog will sure have a day to remember

13. Maxine F.

“Maxine came through last minute and really helped me out. She kept me updated with photos and left Moses the toys I filled with treats before heading out.”


14. Emily P.

“Emily was fabulous, it was so nice to be able to go out of town and know our dogs were safe and cared for, she event texted us during the stay to provide updates and left a nice note of their food and bathroom breaks. We look forward to having her back again!”


15. Eliana W.

“We are so lucky that Eliana is so amazing with Maya. Loved having her be able to stay with Maya at our home while we traveled. Maya was well loved and taken care of. Eliana truly is the best!”


16. Teri F.

20. Conney P.
“Our Bagel Rose is a great dog but sometimes with new people she can be a lot, at 50lbs she can be a jumping missle. When Connie came in she had Rose calmed down and acting better than we knew possible in a mere moments. It’s behavior that has continued since and we are forever grateful for the help Connie gave us with Rose. This change in behavior has allowed Rose more time around my grandchildren as she’s not just tackling them every time we turnaround. Couldn’t have done it without Connie.”
