“Taryn gave me piece of mind staying at my house and watching after my dog and foster cat. She provided regular updates which is always helpful. I would use her again”

About: I've taken care of different types of breeds of dogs in all stages of life. From my own pups to my friends beloved pets, I have 10+ years of experience. I currently work from home, so I am available to board your beloved pet in my house weekdays and weekends; or if you prefer your pet feels more comfortable in their own home. we have a fenced in back yard, but usually I take my pet out for a walk to use the bathroom; not a long walk but maybe to the end of the block and back. leashed of course. I feel it gives dogs a little more satisfaction to walk around and sniff while looking for the perfect spot to do their business. Of course if I am in a clients house, whatever makes their pet feel safe/good, I will always follow their preferred instructions.
“Becca did an amazing job taking care of my three dogs while I was on vacation. My dogs loved her from when they first met her when she came by for a meet and greet. This was the first time having someone come to the house to watch them while I was gone and my mind was put to ease knowing they were in good hands. She also always responded quickly to my messages. I came home to happy and healthy dogs and my house was exactly as I left it!”
“Rebeka was awesome and my animals loved her! She took amazing care of my 2 dogs & 2 cats while I was away. She is extremely thorough and professional. I will definitely be hiring her again in the future!”

“Miranda stayed at our home for almost a week and cared for our dogs while we were away. She kept the house tidy, collected our mail, which was appreciated, and replied promptly to our messages, providing text updates throughout the stay. The dogs were comfortable and looked after, and communication was smooth. Overall, she did a solid job and we were happy to have her stay.”

“I’m so glad I tried looking for another sitter and found Karina! She did a fantastic job! She truly cared for Zoey and made time to know her, and eventually they became buddies! Zoey has a separation anxiety and could be difficult to handle (she won’t leave the house even to go potty). But Karina took effort & was so patient with Zoey and made sure she got to potty for the day. The house was the same as how we left it. I definitely will book Karina again even for drop ins! Thank you so much, Karina! We appreciate you so much!”

About: Greetings, my name is Will. I’m retired military that has traveled the world meeting many great people and pets. Over the years I’ve trained my dogs to a high-level of obedience. I’m currently working on finishing my professional dog training certification. I volunteer with a dog rescue with transporting dogs as well as training a few, so I have experience with dealing with many types of dogs (puppies to seniors) in a number of different circumstances. Though my main option here is dog walking, I can do drop-ins and house sitting. Im retired so I’m available to walk, play, and snuggle with your pet throughout the day. I’m also available to board your pet. I’d like to meet your pet to see if they would be comfortable with staying with me. I have a fenced yard and a friendly and outgoing Aussie for your pet to play with. I go outside with my animals so rest assured yours will never be alone while under my care. Other availability’s: Dog parks, walking trails, private walks in quiet areas.
“Sabrina was amazing with my pups. Sabrina was very professional. Sabrina was quick to respond to messages and work with us on such short notice. If your looking for the perfect sitter, look no further than Sabrina.”

“Being a first time dog owner and needing someone to watch Taylor was a bit nerve wrecking for me but I was easily calmed when we met ahead of time and saw how much Taylor enjoyed you. Thank you for caring for her like she was your own. I have no doubt we’ll be seeing you again in our future needs. Thank you!”

“We truly appreciate David’s care of our pup and home while we were away. He followed instructions to a T and was proactive with communication. We loved the routine updates and pictures, especially seeing that Bailey was getting his walks when weather allowed.”

“I highly recommend Maddie. She watched my cats Julius and Junior for a week doing frequent drop ins through out the day. She send me pictures and kept open communication through out the week. I appreciated that!. She went above and beyond with their care, from basic needs cleaning little box, feeding twice a day, to wiping their eyes due to flat faces, play time and cuddles on the couch. I felt at ease the entire trip knowing my fur babies got exceptional care. She was professional, showed up as promised daily on time, locked doors and left everything in place as was. I will 100% be reaching back out for future trips to Maddie.”

“Alexandria was awesome! We used her for overnight stays. She kept in contact with us during her stay. Jack, Tequila & Moo all seemed to love her! Tequila is almost 18 and needed oral medication and she administered it without any issues. The house was very clean and probably in better condition then we left it. We definitely will be using her again!”

Jen was great with our Fur-Babies! They warmed right up to her and her friendly demeanor. She made time for a meet and greet prior to our overnight stay. We have a very strict routine with our pups and she was very accommodating to help them stay in their routine. She sent updates and photos making us feel comfortable that they were being well taken care of. 10/10 recommended Jen!

Was very pleased from the meet and greet through the fur baby sitting time. It snowed and Becca kept an area shoveled for the dogs to go outside and shoveled the front for us to return . Everything seemed the same as we left it and the dogs were very happy to see us but not in an anxious manner. They got along well. Would definitely have Becca back again.
We are so thankful that we found Jennifer! Not only is she highly responsive, but she was flexible when we found out we needed to change our start time at the last-minute and tack on another visit. She took great care with the instructions I provided as this was the first time we left our puppy for the night. She took her on long walks and sent pictures...It was so reassuring. She's very sweet and obviously has a great love of animals. We've already secured Jennifer for our upcoming long trip!
