Hanna and her family made Charlie feel right at home! They accepted his stinky shoe fetish and his desire for hands constantly petting with absolute open arms (his favorite). Her two fur babies welcomed him and left him absolutely exhausted and maybe a little depressed that there’s no one to play with in his own backyard. We will definitely be rebooking again! Thank you!

Jenny was fantastic watching our dog, Weko. She kept him active and engaged and shared many updates. We are often weary leaving him but she instantly put us at ease leaving him in her care. I would highly recommend Jenny and will book again!

She was AMAZING! She watched our 2 dogs for our wedding weekend and was so accommodating with letting us come get them for the ceremony and bringing them back! She was also fabulous with our very testy rottie. We are forever grateful and so glad our pups were in good hands!

Lucy was amazing! She took such great care of Miso. He can get a little homesick and go on a hunger strike and Lucy was extremely communicative and asked what she could do to help him. We will definitely use Lucy next time we travel.

We were in a bind when our original sitter got sick right before we had to leave for my son’s wedding, and Stacy came through for us at the very last minute. She was absolutely wonderful with Sophie, so patient and kind. She sent updates and photos, which gave us total peace of mind while we were away. I honestly couldn’t be happier with the care she provided. We’d definitely love to use her again in the future.

Was in town for the weekend and my dog couldn’t stay with me at my hotel but it was fine because she was in great hands with Nicholas!! She is an Akita and she is a rescue so that can be a lot to handle but not for him: he even got her to socialize with his dog. So much so, that when I went to pick her up, they were still busy chasing each other around. Anyone who has dealt with a difficult breed or a rescue knows how much time is needed and I’m grateful!!Thanks again for helping out!

About: I have taken care of dogs since my first dog “Beau” when I was 8 years of age. I’ve since had two beautiful adopted puppies. I look forward to training or assisting with any dog. I can assist with cats as well. My fiancé recently adopted a kitten, and the kitten then adopted me. I am available anytime to take care of your loved pet. I have reliable transportation and will be able to adjust to any schedule needed. I don’t have a fenced yard, but I do walk to the beach every day. I also have a carriage that I walk my kitten in if that is needed.

About: I have experience caring for a wide variety of animals ranging from farm animals to indoor pets, including dogs, cats, and reptiles. I currently have 2 dogs, 2 cats, and 2 reptiles of my own, so daily animal care is already a big part of my life. I’m comfortable with feeding schedules, playtime, walks, administering routine care, potty breaks, and giving pets lots of attention and affection. I understand that every pet has a different personality and routine, and I strive to make them feel safe, comfortable, and treated like family while in my care. I work full-time as a dental assistant Monday–Thursday, but I’m available before and after work and have full availability on Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays. I make pet care a priority and can provide plenty of attention, potty breaks, playtime, and care to ensure your pet feels comfortable and loved while with me. I provide a safe, loving environment and follow each pet’s routine, including feeding, potty breaks, playtime, exercise, and lots of attention to keep them comfortable and happy.

Jenny took such attentive care of Chula when Chula felt under the weather. I am grateful that my pups were loved and cared for while I was out of town. It helped ease my mind considerably.

Enzo always has such a great time at Summer’s house! He gets ample exercise, running around the yard with Finn but also out on walks with Summer and her dogs. Summer takes care of Enzo like her own. She’s always so communicative and raises any concerns if she notices behavior is off. I ended up getting stuck for an extra day out of town due to weather and summer was gracious enough to keep Enzo for an extra day. I feel completely at ease when out of town having Enzo stay with summer!
