Niaisha was so great to work with. She visited with our fellas twice before our long vacation so they would be use to her. I was able to really enjoy my time with my family knowing the boys were taken care of in our home and not at a boarding facility. We received daily photos and updates, which help ease my worries even more. We came home to our happy guys !! Would definitely will use her again.

Emily was a great pet sitter for our two large puppy dogs, a 1.5 yo husky mix and a 8 mo GSD. She clearly has a lot of experience and love for animals. Emily was very attentive to my instructions and our dogs warmed right up to her! She was prompt to respond to my texts and sent pictures of the dogs playing. We are all looking forward to having Emily pet sit again soon.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I’ve been around them-which has been always. I’ve pet-sat for family and watched for friends, been responsible for feeding, bathing, exercising, playing, etc., plus my own! I currently work part-time, and have some spare time on my hands when off work, so I’ve got plenty of space in my day to day for dog-sitting! I spend most of the time with my dogs in my free time; playing, walking, exercising, etc. and will provide all care necessary for any and all animals!

Christina is the sweetest and our pets love her. Our little dog gets visibly depressed when he can tell we’re leaving, Christina showed up and he didn’t even care anymore. He was just ready to play with her. She is great

About: I have had dogs, cats, reptiles and small animals since I was a young child. As an adult I have my 4 dogs and I spend a lot of my spare time with them either doing sports and shows or just hanging out and playing around the house and yard! My veterinarian has commented on how meticulously I take care of my pets, and I would be more than happy to provide references upon request! I work part time for a remote company, so I can work anywhere with wifi. I really enjoy being able to spend my days surrounded by my own dogs and our fosters while they're with us! I am able to take breaks during my 6 hour work day to take the dogs out of have a quick game of fetch or cuddle! I have a fenced in backyard that my dogs really enjoy. Because we occasionally have foster dogs in our home our dogs are very friendly and we always have extra crates and beds if necessary. I am open to check ins, pet sitting in my home or yours and scheduled dog walks! I am also able to do backyard poop clean up and more!

About: I’ve always had dogs growing up. From puppies, to full size, elderly and special needs pets. I’ve had a fun time training and playing with pups of all sizes and breeds. Taking care of them is one of my favorite hobbies. I’m always the go to for sitting when people need it. i’m currently working part-time so I’ll have plenty of time to play with your pups before or after work. I do work some weekends so I can do any time as long as I have notice beforehand so i can plan accordingly. i’m easily adaptable, the more information the better from feeding schedules to how long playtime should be and what you’d like to see while you’re away. I can provide toys if needed and treats as long as theyre safe for your babies.

About: I respect all animals, and have a particular love for cats and kittens. I’ve taken care of puppies, cats, and reptiles for over five years. I can be relied on to look after your pet… feed them, play with them, do a little pet yoga, and keep an eye on them for you. I’ll have plenty of time to be with your pet and give them one on one attention. I work part time and work from home. I have a dedicated space for my pet guests, giving them leisure of my living room area and there is a large gated space in the back of my residence if your pet needs outside time.

Anna was awesome. She played with our dogs. She laid down and cuddled with them while watching tv with them. She hugged and kissed them before bed. She maintained our home and made it better than we left it. She’s a sweetheart and a special young lady. Our dogs will miss her. She definitely will be rebooked in the future. Highly recommended

The best! We have two cocker spaniels and Laura stayed with them for 11 days. Laura sent lots of pics of the kids doing all kinds of things. They looked happy and content and loved by Laura. They are easy to fall in love with and I think Laura did. When we came home, Laura had vacuumed, emptied the trash, and scooped the yard. We would very highly recommend Laura to care for your pets, you will not be disappointed.! We will have Laura watch our fur babies again. Thanks Laura!!!

Morgan was great all around! She stayed with our beagle for a week while we were on vacation and our experience with Morgan was great! She followed the our dog’s normal schedule perfectly. She was prompt, consistent, and kept our house in order so well. She communicated with us consistently throughout the week and sent pictures. And we could really tell that she got to know our dog’s personality and preferences during the week. We will definitely be using Morgan again in the future!
