Krystina was amazing! She went above and beyond to take extra care of our two very needy bulldogs. She even had a natural mosquito spray that she shared to keep our pups comfortable in the thick of mosquito season. Our house was spotless and she gave great updates and included pictures. We will definitely be booking with her again!

Benita took great care of our dogs and house. She managed to still walk and play with them in the icy and cold weather. She probably threw the ball at least 2,000 times for our crazy younger pup. Her communication and updates were very frequent. Our dogs were really sad to see her go. We would definitely book again!

About: Hi! I'm Margot, a military veteran with more than 15 years of pet care experience caring for dogs, cats, and other animals. My priority is making sure your pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you're away. I carefully follow feeding schedules, exercise routines, medication requirements, and any special instructions to keep your pets happy and stress-free in their familiar environment. I understand how important communication is when you're away from your furry family members. You'll receive regular updates and photos so you can relax knowing they're receiving attentive, dependable care. I have experience caring for pets with special needs, administering medications, and managing multi-pet households. Whether your pet loves long walks, active playtime, quiet companionship, or extra patience and reassurance, I tailor my care to their individual personality and needs. My schedule is flexible, and I'm happy to work with you to create a care plan that fits both your pet's routine and your travel schedule. The more I know about your pet beforehand, the better care I can provide. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family members! I have a flexible schedule and make pet care a priority. I carefully plan my days to ensure every pet receives reliable, attentive care and plenty of time for their individual needs. I follow your pet's normal routine as closely as possible by providing meals, fresh water, exercise, playtime, medications if needed, and lots of affection. I also send regular updates and photos so you can feel confident while you're away.

Zack does an amazing job! It is so nice to come home to a clean house and know our fur baby has been well cared for. The key didn't work for him, but he sprang into action to make sure Luna was taken care of and he had access. Will look to rehire Zack for future sitting needs!

Nancy did a great job taking care of my two cats with very different needs. A 15 year old and a 1 year old. She followed care instructions well, kept me up to date and sent pictures. She house sat and watched over them for two weeks while I was on vacation out of the country. Thanks Nancy!?

I booked Hawken to take care of our dog and two cats while we were away on vacation. I couldn't have made a better choice! During our meet and greet, our animals were at ease and Hawken established a connection with them right away. He was very detailed in getting to know our preferences and made sure all the information was covered. During his stay, we received daily pictures and updates and Hawken even stepped in and helped us with a couple of hiccups during our travel. When returned to a clean home and relaxed, happy animals. Hawken even shoveled our driveway! We will definitely invite him back when we travel again. We highly recommend him!

Traveled out of state for Christmas and had the best gift from Izabelle! She stayed over in our home caring for our little Milo, who can be a little much and who needs someone with a lot of patience and understanding. Izabelle did just that and more, during the busiest time of year! Izabelle was a great house guest and dog sitter and would very much so, recommend her to care for your 🐾 loved ones!

Avalon is wonderful! My fur babies all love her and she loves them. She goes the extra mile to make sure my dogs are happy and having fun. My house is always clean when we come home. She’s watched our house and animals twice in the past four months and have hired again in the next few months. We have the highest level of trust for Avalon. I would highly recommend her!

About: Hi there! Life long Alaskan and animal lover. I grew up around dogs and cats my whole life, and love spending time with all animals. I have a bunny of my own as well! Love taking my family dogs out, playing with them, and just spending time with them. I work part time, so my schedule can be pretty flexible with notice. I love to go on daily walks anyways, so definitely would love to bring a pup out with me as well! I will treat your pets as if they are my own because I know how special they are to you! I treat my own pets with lots of love and affection, as well as attention.

Suzanne took wonderful care of my dog while staying at our home for a week. She sent photos nearly every day, which gave me so much peace of mind while we were away. I was especially impressed with how well she handled all of our pups quirks. It was clear that she was attentive, patient, and genuinely cared about his well-being. Knowing Suzanne was there made it so much easier to relax and enjoy our trip. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and dependable pet sitter. I would absolutely trust her to care for our pup again in the future.

Di (Laura) She did a fantastic job of taking care of our dog Scout. She took the dog walking nearly every day despite very cold and snowy conditions. She fed and groomed her and stayed with her in our home. Di played countess games with Scout and provided the companionship that we give ourselves. Di took excellent care of our house and always checked in with us daily and asked questions with regard to keeping the dog and house in good shape. We would use her again and think we have found a new friend in her. Thanks, Rob and Dixie Retherford (and Scout!)
