“Cassie Communicated with us extremely well ! She was ontime , friendly and our doggies responded so happily as soon as she walked in. Definitely recommend her and will use her again when come back into town”
2. Alma P.
“Having known Alma as a friend for many years, I find it easy to write a reference for her, The first time I met Alma it took me but a few minutes to develop a rapport with her and a friendship that has been tested for authenticity. She is a person of strong integrity and character, diligent, trustworthy, and loyal. A friend of the highest caliber. Alma has a 9 year old dog ( Ponchita) that receives wonderful care. Ponchita is active, vibrant and very friendly to all of Alma’s friends. I believe Ponchita’s vitality is a direct result of the excellent care she receives. Alma ensures Ponchita eats a clean and high-quality diet ( no processed food) , get’s her daily exercise and enjoys a loving, stress-free home environment. As far as I am concerned, Alma would be a wonderful pet sitter, an asset to any establishment that is privileged to have her accept an offer.”

About: I’ve had family dogs since I was 9 and have been taking care of them since then. They are small dogs so I have more experience with that, but have helped out with friends’ pets of all sizes. I’m currently in between jobs and school so I have lots of free time. I would love to spend it taking care of and hanging out with pets I can stay in your home, drop-in, or walk your dog and follow instructions for how you want your pet to be cared for. Because I am currently not working I can spend lots of time with them if necessary :)

“Heather was absolutely wonderful! She stayed with our two dogs over Thanksgiving and was super communicative and sent us as many updates and photos as we asked for. She took them both on long walks and hikes so they were happy, tired pups when we got home. We felt so comfortable with her, and will definitely be using her in the future!”
11. Jaycee K.
“Jaycee watched our dogs for us in our home for a week and did an amazing job! She stayed in communication with us constantly and provided updates on how our dogs were feeling, eating, potty breaks, etc. She even sent us an adorable video of her singing one of our pups Happy Birthday on her birthday! We could tell our dogs felt loved and cared for by her. I would recommend her and we will use her again when needed. Thanks Jaycee!”

17. Brenda V.
“Finding a reliable and caring pet sitter can be a challenge, but I struck gold when I found Brenda. She has been taking care of my dog Buddy while I'm at work, and I couldn't be happier with the level of care she provides. Brenda goes above and beyond to ensure Buddy's well-being. She takes him on regular walks, which not only gives him exercise but also allows him to explore and socialize with other dogs. I appreciate that she takes the time to tailor the walks to Buddy's energy level and preferences. When it comes to Buddy's meals, Brenda is meticulous. She makes sure he is fed according to his schedule and ensures he has fresh water throughout the day to keep him hydrated. I can see that Buddy is always excited and well-nourished when I come home. What sets Brenda apart is her genuine love and affection for animals. It's evident in the way she interacts with Buddy. She showers him with attention, pets, and cuddles, making him feel loved and comforted in my absence. I can tell Buddy enjoys spending time with her and looks forward to her visits. Communication is key, and Brenda excels in that aspect too. She keeps me informed about Buddy's activities, behavior, and any concerns that may arise. It gives me peace of mind knowing that she is attentive and proactive in looking after Buddy's well-being. Overall, I couldn't be more satisfied with Brenda's pet-sitting services. She is reliable, caring, and goes the extra mile to ensure Buddy's needs are met. I highly recommend her to anyone in need of a trustworthy and dedicated pet sitter. Thank you, Brenda, for taking such great care of Buddy!”
18. Alyssa F.
“Alyssa is the best at what she does. When other people watch your dog it’s hard not to worry and nothing sucks more than getting home and feeling like your dog has been neglected all day. Alyssa actually cares though and you can see it in your dog. I 100% recommend.”
