“Meretta was incredible! My loving, cuddling cat loved play times and belly rubs. My angry, devil-spawn cat appreciated Meretta’s patience and willingness to give her space. Thank you, Meretta!”

About: I personally have 2 dogs, I did all personal training, all walks, and grooming. Friends and family trust me with their fur family as well. As a child to now it is my responsibility to take care of household pets, feeding, potty breaks, training, exercise and lots of loving attention. Every day my dogs get let out for bathroom breaks, eat breakfast and play time throughout the day. Fetch is a neverending game at my house. I have a fenced back yard, 2 friendly dogs and a spare room for fur guests. Water is always accessible in yard or house. Portable water for walks as well.

About: While we have 3 dogs of our own, we have a large area and easy ways to separate if need be. We have a HUGE fenced-in outdoor area where they can run around, chase squirrels, sniff, dig, and all the fun things! We also have a large indoor dog room for them to play, sleep and eat in. Lastly, have a good-sized covered enclosed patio, so if they want to be outside, but it is a bit cold, we have options. These areas make it easy for us to separate dogs if there are any aggression issues or if any are un-fxed. I work partially remote. I leave the house from about 10-4pm on Mondays and Fridays, but other than that am pretty available to be home and handle whatever crazy things the pups come up with! We have lots of room for your doggos to run around and the friendliest Goldendoodle who LOVES to play (if yours are game, otherwise, we will keep them separated)
5. Ariel C.
“Ariel was absolutely amazing! This last weekend was the first time I've ever left my dogs alone, and I was so incredibly nervous, especially because one likes to escape and run away, and one is dog reactive. I wrote out overly detailed instructions for each drop-in visit, and she followed them to a T. She went above and beyond in caring for our pups! After the first check in, I basically forgot how nervous I was and was able to enjoy my family reunion, worry-free. She was so sweet and patient with my dogs, and she took the cutest photos and left the sweetest updates about them! I highly, highly recommend her services. I will definitely be contacting her again if I ever need someone to watch my pups. Thank you so, so much again Ariel!”
6. Lindsey R.
“Lindsey and family really enjoy animals. Their own dog is the calmest and most accepting, easy going dog imaginable. Plenty of lawn and dog toys!”
7. Chloe M.
“Chloe’s updates we very reassuring to us so we could properly enjoy our trip knowing our cat was fed and happy. She even went above and beyond and helped catch an escaped chicken!”
8. Marielle E.
“Marielle is an amazing sitter! We had to leave our two cats for a week-long trip. I was nervous to leave them alone together for that long, but we chose to do drop-in visits and Marielle helped me feel at ease with the whole process. We got multiple pictures and updates during our trip, and she was so accommodating and helpful. Even our shy cat decided to come out of her hiding spot during a drop-in visit (Marielle still sent pics of our shy cat from her hiding spot every day which was very helpful!) :) our other cat is more outgoing and got lots of cuddles while we were away too. Both cats were healthy and happy when we got back home and their litter box areas were spotless. You can also just tell that Marielle and her family love animals in general, which is such an important quality when looking for a sitter you can trust. I plan on contacting Marielle again in the future and I’d recommend her to anyone who wants to know their pets are being loved and taken care of while they’re away!”
9. Olivia K.
“Olivia was great. She followed the schedule and our dogs were well taken care of.”
10. Rachel P.
“Rachel was an amazing cat care taker. She went above and beyond. We left the country for 9 days and I was very worried about our cats. The first day Rachel checked in she had me at ease. She told me all about each visit and made sure to tell us she took care of the cats the exact way we requested. She got a picture of our very scared cat Hendrix- who would never come out to say hi because he only comes out for us, just to let us know he’s alive. She even went as far as vaccuming up the cat litter from the carpet. She is just awesome!”
11. Joslynn G.
About: I absolutely adore pets! Growing up I always had pets around. I had cats and dogs although my pet dog was my best friend. From when she was a puppy to an old age I always gave her love and affection. She was my fun time, my emotional support and cuddle buddy. After she passed I couldn’t live without a best friend! I believe pets deserve happiness all the time. I would love to spread that love and happiness to as many pets as I can I’m currently free anytime! I take my own pets on walks, dog parks, play with them at home and make sure they get their rest and nutrition. Although it takes time for pets to warm up in someone else’s home, I love to make pets feel like it’s their own. In their own home, I respect their space and try my best to comfort them and give them time to warm up.
12. Monica P.
“Great care in making sure our cat was cared for. Our daughter lost her brush somewhere and they made sure she had one for the consequent visits since she’s a long haired cat. Pancake really enjoyed her which is great as our cat isn’t too friendly with others normally.”
13. Heather W.
“Heather is outstanding! She is so sweet to my dogs and provides really good photos and updates on every drop in! She even helped me out with a last minute emergency visit! I would recommend her to anyone! 💖”
14. Bethany H.
“Bethany is super friendly and was great at keeping us in the loop! She responded to messages quickly and was great to coordinate with. We're glad she lives so close.”
15. Natalie S.
“We had a fantastic experience with Natalie! Our cats warmed up to her right away, and she took great care of them. She even went above and beyond and took our trash cans out and brought in our packages. Would hire again.”
16. Kristen & Shane H.
“Kristen and Shane are great! You can tell they both love animals so I knew my fur babies would be in good hands. Communication was great and the pictures show my doggo looking happy. I will definitely book again. Thank you!”

“Whittney was so amazing at making sure everything was taken care of while we were gone. We will definitely be booking with her again.”

19. Nicole J.
“Nicole was the best taking care of my girls. She made sure they each had the kind of attention the need and want, which is very different from each other. I appreciated the updates, pictures and small details only a true dog lover would know to give.”
