Marie was a Godsend! I have never left my 2 cats but wanted to attend a wedding in Mexico. From the moment I met Marie, I knew my fur babies would be in good hands. She sent me pics twice a day and let me know how my girls were doing. Not only do I have a cat sitter, I have a new friend as well :) Marie is loving and responsible and I highly recommend her!!

Claudia dropped in to feed and let my dogs out over a long weekend. Claudia was so sweet and communicative! She gave me excellent updates and sent tons of pictures. I think she even brought them a toy. My dogs looked super happy and well-cared for and I will definitely book with Claudia again!

About: I have experience with most pets. I specialize in “high maintenance” animals. If your pet’s care routine requires extra attention to detail (meds/ supplements, specific routines) I have experience with all of that. I have owned horses for thirteen years, dogs and cats most of my life, and have been doing animal care for over five. I am available to house sit as well. Animal care is my job. I have clients with a variety of animals (horses, goats, chickens, cats, dogs etc.) I schedule my personal activities around my animal care jobs. I do not offer pet care at my home because I have a very territorial beagle who does not appreciate new furry friends :) I have cared for pets at their own homes for years and have references from many satisfied clients.

Taylor was sooo sweet! I was worried my newer rescue kitty would not do well since she is still skeptical of strangers but she came right out during the intro visit so I was super relieved! She definitely is an animal lover which they can sense. I highly recommend her and will 100% use her in the future :)

About: I was born and raised with dogs in our home and I have always had multiple dogs as an adult. My husband and I have fostered more dogs than I can count. I belonged to a dog training club for 20 years focused on teaching the average dog owner the basics such as potty training and manners. My friends and relatives entrust me with their dogs care whether it be drop ins or boarding in my home. I do not currently work outside of my home. I am available to let your dogs out while you work, bring them to my house for daycare and boarding is available. I will take care of your dogs like they are my own. I have a large fenced yard and 4 of my own friendly dogs. I can easily crate dogs if necessary. There is also room to separate any dog that may be unsure. There will be times when I will have them rest so that no one becomes overstimulated.

This was our first time using Rover and Cydni S. Cydni did a phenomenal job with our 3 dogs! She was always sending pictures at every drop-in with a description of how they were doing. Our dogs needed medication daily and she had no problem with giving it, she even paid attention to our picky eater and made sure she attended to his needs. Cydni went above and beyond by getting a package left on the porch out of the rain and tiding up the house for us. We can tell that they received lots of love and care! I would use Cydni again and recommend her to someone looking for a caring, reliable dog sitter.

About: Hi!! My name is Lena, and I’ve always had a passion for caring for animals. I currently work at a veterinary clinic, where i get experience with dogs and cats of all ages, sizes, and personalities. I’ve become comfortable recognizing signs of illness, administering medications, and providing compassionate care to pets with special needs. My experience working close with veterinarians is sure to keep owners relieved! I have been around animals my whole life! I currently have 4 dogs. I grew up with dogs, and I’ve had the privilege of caring for them from puppyhood through their senior years. I also have experience caring for cats and currently have a cat of my own! My combination of professional experience and genuine love for animals is perfect for your precious pets! I understand that every pet is unique, and I take the time to learn their routines, preferences, and personalities so they feel comfortable and safe while you’re away. Whether your pet loves long walks, playtime, cuddles, or simply having a calm companion nearby, I’m committed to providing the same level of care and attention I would give my own pets! My goal is to give pet owners peace of mind by providing reliable, attentive, and loving care while keeping pets happy, healthy, and comfortable in their familiar environment. I also love updates and photos so you can stay connected to your babies while you’re away! I currently work full time, but I have a flexible schedule and can still provide dependable care! I am fully available on weekends, and during the week I am available after 5 PM. I’m always willing to communicate and work together to find a schedule that best supports your pet’s needs. I know how important it is to feel comfortable trusting someone in your home. I take that responsibility seriously and always aim to be respectful and reliable! I follow all instructions closely, keep your home clean and secure, and make sure your pets feel safe and cared for in their familiar environment. Communication is also important to me, so I’m happy to provide updates while you’re away!

Hanna did a wonderful job taking care of our two cats Chance and Hazel. Hazel being deaf makes communication difficult and they quickly became friends. Chance on the other hand is pretty fearful of new people. Took him a day but by day 2 she had him eating his wet food on the stairs and then the last day he actually came out of hiding to eat at his normal eating spot. I would highly recommend Hanna! We will definitely have her back again.

Amy is definitely a cat whisperer. Our Lola is very unsure of anyone except us & usually hides when company comes. She loves Amy. She will play with Amy & let her love on her. We feel very comfortable leaving Lola under Amy’s care. I would give Amy a 10 star rating on a scale of 0-5!!!
