Jason was so great with both dogs. One dog is so scared.. barks, nips. Jason was patient and caring, and soon they were buddies. Jason goes above and keeps house and yard clean. We’ll definitely call on Jason again.

About: I stand out because I treat every dog like my own. I learn their quirks, stick to their exact routine, and keep you updated with photos so you’re never left wondering. With reliable communication and genuine love for animals, you come home to a calm, happy pup who had a great day. As a cat owner, I fit care into my day in small, easy chunks. My mornings are 10-15 minutes to feed, refresh water, and scoop the litter while my coffee brews. Evenings take about 15-20 minutes for dinner, a second scoop, and playtime — my cat is most active at dusk, so a quick wand-toy session helps her settle for the night. Weekly tasks like deep-cleaning the box or brushing take me 30 minutes total. Once I tied it to habits I already had, it became routine and keeps my cat calm and happy. I care for my pets by keeping their routine simple and consistent. Mornings are food, fresh water, and quick clean-up. Evenings are dinner, play or walks, and checking that everyone’s settled. I stick to their schedules, handle meds when needed, and stay on top of vet care so they stay healthy and happy.

Jennifer was awesome! She took such good care of my Maggie while I was away during Christmas to visit family. She sent me pictures everyday and told me what they did that day (without me even asking). That was so nice! She told me that Maggie went for a long walk everyday in addition to her being taken out several times a day for potty breaks. It was only 5 days but I swear Maggie lost at least a pound or two! (which she really needs) I was so nervous about leaving Maggie with a stranger but Jennifer was so nice and easy going. She let me come over to meet her and see her house (which was so clean and nice and comfortable I wanted to live there! lol) and her screened in porch. She listened carefully to all of my special instructions about food and medicine and all of Maggie's idiosyncrasies. (and there were alot lol) She was very patient with us! After meeting her I was able to relax because I really felt like I had someone to trust my baby with! I enjoyed my time with family without worry and that is priceless! (I worry about everything!) Thank you Jennifer! I am so grateful and I will definitely contact you next time we get to travel!

Wonderful experience. Stephanie is impressive personally, and with my pup, she is hands on and heart in. Her professional background gives her the expertise and capacity to care for others, whether human or canine, in a remarkable way, and her genuine positivity and perspective are refreshing. It's a joy to work with Stephanie.

About: I'm a lifelong dog person that likes them all, big and small! I stay pretty busy dog sitting, especially in the summer, and I'd love to hangout with your four-legged friends. I'm comfortable with cats and other pets as well, just ask! I have had dogs and cats my entire life (not currently) and have experience with several breeds and some medical issues, such as epileptic seizures. I am compassionate and caring, and love puppy snuggles (if they want to give them). I will stay in your house or come by as needed. Along with the pet-sitting, if I'm staying at your place, I'm happy to bring in the mail, roll out the trash, and even take care of your pool if you've got one! work part-time and have some flexible side work, which allows me to structure my schedule around the needs of the pets I care for. I always make sure I have plenty of time for walks, feeding, playtime, cuddles, and keeping animals comfortable and cared for. Being around animals is something I truly enjoy, so it’s an easy and fulfilling part of my routine. I care for pets in my client’s home, where they’re most comfortable and familiar with their surroundings. I usually stay with them and try to keep their normal routine as consistent as possible, including meals, walks, playtime, cuddles, and downtime. I know being away from their family can be stressful for pets, so I focus on helping them feel safe, calm, and cared for while their humans are away.

About: I’ve been doing this a while and animals trust me, I know what they need, I have senior dogs so I know how to care for them and I know how to train dogs even though I’m not certified. I’m available whenever I don’t have my drivers license yet but my mom drives me and if it’s for an overnight stay whatever time I’ve done those before I usually come in the afternoon the first day I’m there unless you would like me to come later. I stay in clients homes and usually it’s up to them whatever directions they leave for me for what is needed for their pet I follow such as where they can and can’t go in the house what to do if I leave for a little bit when to feed them how often to take them out.

It broke my heart to leave my cat Louis home while I was away for work for 11 nights but David did a phenomenal job house-sitting, taking care of her. He was responsive, sent regular updates, he even managed to steal her heart. I highly recommend David and would definitely book him again if I ever have to leave my girl alone for an extended period

About: I have walked different sized and aged dogs before through volunteering for a dog and cat shelter. I love high energy dogs because they help make sure I get my exercise for the day. I am available during the summer because I am not working much. I will take care of your dogs like they are your kids. I am comfortable taking care of dogs. I know it's important to make sure dogs stay happy while in my care. I will make sure dogs and their owners feel exceptional and well taken care of after I work with them, I am interested in getting to know you and have me get to know your dogs. It's important to have someone to give attention at all times

I am SO SO happy to have found Wendy! The dogs love her and so do I. She recently watched the dogs for a week while we were out of state on vacation, and even though I ended up with zero cell service and very spotty WiFi making it nearly impossible for me to reply to her texts, I felt completely confident and comfortable knowing that Wendy was with my babies and that they were in great hands! Thank you for loving them!

About: I’ve taken care of cats and dogs since I was 10 years old. I am now in my 20’s taking care of my dogs, cats, and pocket pets. My current work schedule is during the day time, so I can drop into care for animals in the evening or later night time hours. I have a fenced in backyard I have to enrich my dogs playtime. I have cages for my animals if/when they are needed during the day.
