“Lori and Daisy had a great time! Lori kept me informed while I was away with sweet photos and texts. My apartment was in great shape upon my arrival home. Bed linens washed and replaced, kitchen cleaned up and all dishes put away. I will definitely ask Lori to stay with Daisy in the future! 😊”

“Konnie is amazing! She came over before we booked to meet the family and our pups! We then arranged for her to come over again before we left so that the pups could get to know her.

“Arrived home at 5am from our trip. Our pets were happy to see us. The house was in pristine condition. Nothing was out of place even though I know Jess and the dog had all his dog toys out because she was kind enough to send us pictures of their little adventures & our cat knocked a glass candle to the floor, watched the roomba try to eat it just to amuse himself. Jess handled it. Very pleased with Jess and the service she provides to our family when we are out of town. No worries.”

We will definitely be looking to have her help with our dogs in the future.”

About: I have rescued two senior, nine year old, brother dogs in 2019, and they are absolutely thriving. I have also taken in a sixteen year old cat from my grandfather, and I currently live with three disabled cats. I am currently working on selling some things online, which means my schedule is completely flexible and lets me go out and take care of what I need to do, including taking care of pets! I quadruple check that all doors are closed, that there is plenty of water and food available, checking for any messes or hazards like yarn, magnets, reachable food containers, and I ALWAYS use a leash when necessary.
“Aiden did a great job with our older dog, Gunner. Gunner is older and requires lots of attention. We really appreciated his attention and care for him. We highly recommend him !”
About: It won’t let me change my profile but i currently do not live with any pets but dogs are my favorite pet ever. i’ve watched many many dogs in my life and it is always the best. I’m more than capable of loving and caring for your pet! I have had 3 dogs in my life and currently have two but i’m away at school. I’m in college currently but i have two dogs back at home. I’m obsessed with them and love them so much. I’ve also managed to train them very well. I’ll do whatever you need to make you feel comfortable with me taking care of your pets. I’m very understanding and will do my best to make your pet feel safe and loved.
“Carson took awesome care of our little older, blind pup. He took our pup on a walk the morning we were coming home just because! We’ll definitely be reaching out again.”
About: I have been around animals, exotic and domestic, since I was taken home in the carrier. Animals are my passion and there’s no animal that doesn’t need loved! I am a first responder with no set schedule, so I would like to spend my free time with animals and helping people out if they are needed. I couldn’t think of a better way to help out! I am very flexible on my off days and would be willing to go above and beyond for your pet. I understand some pets require certain things that may be different or difficult, but I would be absolutely willing to work through that! Walking dogs, doing litter boxes, playing fetch, and giving attention are all my specialties!
“Mayana was great!”
About: Ive had dogs all 18 years of my life. Currently I hav 5 dogs all medium sized dogs which is a lot of cleaning and attention. I have an Axolotl right now who is a few years old and have had lots of fish and a few cats over the years. Animals living with me or pets I have always considered family and I would treat anyone else pet with love, care and respect just as I would want for my own "babies". I am a college student so pet care fits into my daily life perfect and helps me make cash for college while having enough time to focus on school work. I am available as I have no other focus like a job as of right now so my hours are pretty open. I would always call or text if there was ever a concern or question and wouldnt do something that wasnt talked about before. I am always loving to animals and would never want the owner to worry about the dog or fish's safety while my care. I am loving to all animals and would be interested in working with animals i've never worked with before. I would love a chat over the phone or in person the first time and may bring my mom or boyfriend just to ensure my safety the first time us meeting but would love to go over all the do's and don's for your pet.

Vanessa C.
“I've had the pleasure of knowing Vanessa for years, and I can say without a doubt that any pet in her care is in incredibly good hands. She's responsible, attentive, and truly loves animals. Whether it's going the extra mile for a long walk, keeping pets engaged with playtime, or just offering calm companionship, she treats every dog (or cat!) like her own. If you're looking for someone reliable, caring, and communicative, Vanessa is the sitter you’ve been hoping to find. Your pets will feel safe, loved, and well cared for—and you’ll have peace of mind while you're away. I’d trust her with my own pets any day!”
