LaShay is an amazing pet sitter with a golden heart. She goes beyond the call of duty. The animals in her care are treated like family. She sends pictures every few hours and takes the pups on a walk every 2 hours.

Amber was able to watch my two dogs at my home with very short notice. She was very responsive, kind, and easy to work with. I came home to two happy pups after a weekend away and will definitely be using her again in the future.

10 years of experience

About: I’ve always wanted pets since I was a kid. When I was 10 I got my first dog, a Saint Bernard named Barry. I’ve been nuts about dogs ever since. That grew into a love for all animals, and I have owned horses, cats and dogs over the last 20 years. 10 years ago I accepted a job at an equestrian facility. That opened the door to my first ever pet sit and since then I’ve worked all over the area. I took a break for awhile, due to my schedule becoming to full with other commitments, now I’m back ready to accept some new clients. Obviously our pets are a huge part of our lives. I do not take that responsibility lightly. When I come into a home I bring my heart and passion to the job to make sure the animals under my care feel comfortable, safe and as smoothly adjusted as they can be to someone new in their environment. I have worked with pretty much every dog you can think of. Rescues with timid personalities, small pups, giant breeds. And hard work does not put me off, I most recently spent two weeks rehabbing a German Shepard who had broken her leg. This is not a normal situation but I mention because this happened two days prior to this client leaving. There was very little time to plan and adapting on the fly was necessary. And that’s what I can do, provide a solid plan of care but also think on my feet if the situation arises. I look forward to the conversations to be had here and the new pets that I will meet. I recently switch careers which has boosted my flexibility in providing my overnight pet sitting services which is why I’ve reactivated my Rover services. I specialize in sits that last a week to two, with former experience from the last 10 years I’ve learned how to treat my clients pets as my own and tailor my schedule to their needs. I don’t have a home setup for boarding at this time so I only do sits in your home but I do provide my own supplies and clean before I leave.

Jax did an outstanding job with our two cats and our Sr. Dog. Jax spent 8 days at our house, spent extra time with our dog giving him a little therapy and grooming him. Our pets were happy and we received photos every day. Jax was great with our house and was completely reliable. We felt that Jax went above and beyond what is expected and we will be using their service again. We highly recommend Jax!!

We absolutely loved having Maggie dog sit Tilly and Hazel! She was on time and very thorough and kept us updated! We got tons of pictures and that made us so at ease being away from our dogs! She even assisted with meds and some other things! 100% would have Maggie back and would ask her again!

Margie really loves dogs! She'll make sure that not just their basic needs (food, shelter) are met, but also their emotional and behavioral needs (exercise, attention, mental stimulation, etc). She's a great person to care for your dog or dogs!

About: Fur babies are my life … No literally! 🤗 I’m a Veterinarian Assistant so caring for your pet is literally what I do, what I love.🥰 I work 12hr shifts but only 3 days a a week at a Veterinarian Hospital. So that gives me tons of extra time during the week. I have a fenced in yard and a very nice fur baby to keep your fur baby company. I do also have created if needed.
