“Alex was amazing and my dogs love her! I was nervous leaving them for the first time and Alex came over and made me much better! She clearly loves dogs and is very knowledgeable! Highly recommended!”
“We’ve had Varana do drop in visits a couple of times. She comes at the appointed times and gives report cards and pics. Sammy and Emmy enjoy her company and Varana loves to see the dogs.”
“Glendon was absolutely amazing with my two fur-babies! My boy doesn't warm up quickly to people but I can tell by the video and picture Glendon sent that Copper was a huge fan too! Excellent communication, timely and very attentive to any requests/special needs of my pups! Highly recommend and will be using him again!”
“Mae has been absolutely phenomenal. I needed someone to watch my rats while away for the holidays, and Mae did a fantastic job caring for them. She always made sure to ask questions for additional clarification and kept me thoroughly updated on their health and well-being. Mae truly went above and beyond on their care and sent me regular photo and written updates on them. I am grateful to have landed in contact with her and to come home to see my rats happy and healthy.”
“Chloe was great - she sent very detailed messages and pics each day and the cats really seemed to like her. We came home and they acted like we hadn't even been gone (because Chloe took such good care of them). Chloe was lovely and we'd definitely use her again in future!”
“McKenna was a GREAT pet sitter. She was on time and did all the tasks asked and even filled the bird feeders. Best of all, Stormy was excited to see her each day for food and pets. Her photos were so appreciated and so well done. I really appreciated her daily updates.”
“Constance went WAY above and beyond for my fosters! She was patient and stayed over her time with Amelia who is a bit skiddish and reserved to help her get more comfortable. THEN!! Asked if she could help me pooper scoop!! I'm keeping her for all things dogs. Even offered her services at home with her dogs to help socialize my puppies!!! If there were 10 stars she would get them all.”
About: I’ve had dogs in my house for as long as I have been alive and have a great love for dogs and cats alike. I have years of experience pet sitting for both dogs and cats. I currently work a full time job but have Sunday through Tuesday off every week and have plenty of time to drop in and feed or play with your pet as well as take your pet for a walk. I am un able to take dogs into my home as my current residence does not allow dogs, but I am more than happy to drop in to your home and take care of your pet.
About: Hi, I'm Alex! I grew up around large dogs and have years of experience dog sitting and training for friends and family across all ages and breeds, as well as dogs with special medical needs involving medications, past trauma history, and assistance going up and down stairs. I have two friendly and cuddly cats at home, and someday hoping to have the right space and time to adopt a big floofy dog. My kitties are currently learning to come when their name is called and working on sensory training to feel comfy when I brush their teeth! All cats and dog sizes/ages are welcome, and I can't wait to meet your baby! :) My schedule: I am a speech-language pathologist currently working Monday through Thursday. I love my job, but missing spending time with animals. I am routinely available Fridays and Sundays. Per request, I can be available Saturday mornings or Thursday afternoons as well to check in on your furry friend! My home: I have a large, open concept home that is "baby proof" due to our two curious cats at home. If needed, our cats are comfy hanging out in our master bedroom where we have a screen door so they can still observe, if your dog isn't a fan of cats. If you decide to board with us, I only accept one family at a time. I want to make sure safety comes first, and this will also allow me to create a homey environment and give more attention! We currently do not have a fenced in yard (but hope to soon!). Aside from going on daily walks, if you are comfortable, I can link your dog to a run or a long rope, while supervised, to enjoy the outdoors as we have about an acre of open space in our back yard.
About: I have 4 dogs myself, all k9 trained, and have taken of family pets over the last few years and trained them as well, from puppy to senior dogs. All of my companions are rescued. With my personal experience, i understand dog behavioral and needs for taking care for your love ones. I work from home. I have flexibilty and availability throughout the week to attend to your pets needs. We can work on a schedule that fits your needs should you go on a vacation or away for work travel! My first go to is understand your pets feeding schedule, medication, training commands and learn your requirements before I step a foot in your home. I would like to meet your pet a day prior for 30 mins. If you have a daily routine and daily regimen, a daily report and picture will be submitted and should there be any emergency a call will be warranted.
About: Hello Pet Parents, My name is Maleeka and I’m a former emergency veterinary hospital receptionist and current nursing student. My love for animals started at a young age. My first job was at a local, family owned pet store when I was 14. I’ve been caring for animals for 20 years and hope to continue to do so for years to come. Pet Care would fit into my weekly routine as I’m currently a part time college student with a flexible schedule to provide pet sitting services. I’m home full time and my courses are online. I live in a quiet neighborhood away from the main road and traffic. I have a large, unfenched backyard surrounded by woods at the edge of the property. Taking care of a pet at a client’s resident would depend on their house’s location etc.

Alexandra D.
“Hello, I have known Alexandra for 7 years. She's extremely compassionate and caring towards all flora and fauna. Alexandra has been constantly moving since she finished graduate school, so she has never quite had the means, permission, or the space to fairly raise a puppy of her own. Though this is true, this is probably the first thing she will do when this becomes a possibility. She is constantly volunteering herself to care for her friend's and family's dogs, and has handled many breeds both big and small. Alexandra's love for dogs is real, I couldn't think of anyone better for the job!”
Melanie M.
“Great attention to detail with timing, food, does & don'ts! Really understood what it takes to be a great dog sitter! Will be working together again!”
Maleeka D.
“Maleeka pet set for my shitzu Louie. She was very compassionate and loving . She has a wonderful way with animals a very calming effect. She is the only person I would leave my dog with.”
