“Cielo did a very nice job with our Maya. Maya can be a little stinker with new people, but Cielo handled her with kindness and good sense. Before you knew it, they were out running together and cuddling up at home. Cielo left our home in perfect order and we came home to a happy dog.”
“Courtney was wonderful! She sent updates, loved on my boy, kept my home clean, and even washed the linens! I would/will keep her contact handy for future sitting needs. Felt at such ease leaving my Levi with her 🩵”
“Great experience with Zack housesitting our dogs. Kya and Enzo had a great time and Zack provided frequent updates with pictures. We would absolutely have him watch our dogs again.”
“I recently had the pleasure of using Cooper as our pet sitter, and he did a fantastic job taking care of our Vizsla, Rip. Cooper followed all of our instructions perfectly, including administering Rip's insulin injections, which was very important to us. Rip warmed up to him quickly, which speaks volumes about Cooper's gentle and caring nature. He's a well-mannered, responsible young man, and I completely trust him with both my dog and my home. I'll definitely be using Cooper's services again and highly recommend him to anyone in need of a trustworthy pet sitter!”
“We have never used Rover before and weren’t sure what to expect. We found Emily and after meeting her, booked her to take care of our spoiled dogs. I couldn’t be more happy with the way they were treated. Emily went out of her way to make sure the dogs were taken care of and that I was given regular pictures and updates on their time without us. I would not hesitate to book Emily again and would highly recommend her.”
“Brandon and his fiance Emily were wonderful. They took good care of Pugsly, Pepe, and the house while we were gone. They communicated and sent photos so we would know all was well. I will definately hire him again.”
“What can I say other than Kelsey was amazing!!! She took the time before hand to get to know my needs and wants for my cat when it came to feeding, treats, play time, brushing and cleaning up! Was very respectful of any strict schedules I had for feeding before bed and cleaning up was met. She sent daily pictures and updates via app and let me call FaceTime to check in on my big boy! I had not a single worry while being away from home due to work that something might happen that Kelsey couldn’t take care of or wouldn’t get in touch with me right away. So happy I found someone that is very caring and kind to my cat especially this being my first time having a pet and needing to be away! Please book this lovely woman so you can be worry free too🙌🏻”
About: I’m exceedingly patient with all pets, and have found most gravitate toward me with little acquaintance. I’m raising a special needs pup and a misunderstood “bully breed.” We have 3 dogs in my house, so I’m used to the high energy chaos our four legged friends bring. Currently working full-time, so I’m unable to do drop-ins. However, I’m more than happy to do stay-overs in your pet’s most comfortable place. I can get them set for the morning and all the attention in the afternoon! I’m a hands on pet owner and which means I carry that over to your pet as well. I also like to keep a routine to help ease the anxiety and the upset of what most pets are used to especially when they have a new person in their space.
“Barbara was excellent with my 4 month old puppy Bella. She was always on time and kept me updated . She followed my instructions for each day. I will definitely use Barbara in the future.”
About: 13 years of pet care experience isn't just a job description for me - it's a deep-seated passion. My furry friends have always been my faithful companions, and I take immense pride in providing them with top-notch care. Teaching puppies new tricks is just like helping your own ride a bike. Senior and disabled dogs often face unique challenges, and I know how difficult it can be to provide them with the care they deserve. You understand that special kind of compassion that makes all the difference in the world for these animals. I'd like to provide that to you. A morning routine with my beloved furry friend usually begins with getting them up and moving with a little morning exercise. I always take the time to brush them and give them a good breakfast - often with a special treat! I take great pride in providing my client's pets with the same love and attention they would give themselves. From exercise and grooming to nutritious meals and lots of snuggles, I strive to create a comfortable and loving environment for every pet under my care.
