About: I’ve taken care of all kinds of animals ever since I was 5 years old! I’ve taken my time to learn animal behaviors and I can assure your pet will be in good hands. I have had the chance of taking care of multiple animals! Ranging from dogs, cats, goats, pigs, many kinds of birds, reptiles, amphibians and many more. Ive also taken care of many animals of many ages in life. I am mostly always free! I am a student just earning money and experience to become a future veterinarian. I have a great passion for all things animal related so I hope to have the greatest opportunity to take care of your pets! (Hablo español) I am currently a student just earning money and studying. So I am almost always free! (unless my parents planned something.) If anything comes up I will always let you know! I have a dog of my own that is very friendly! If you'd like to socialize your pet I can help! I don't mind buying things to ensure your pets needs are met. (within reason and budget of course)
“Melissa and her husband were awesome! They treated my dog like family—walked him, cuddled with him, and even let him sleep with them. They kept me updated constantly with photos and messages, which gave me so much peace of mind. I could tell my dog felt right at home and was truly happy. It felt like a little vacation for him too! I would absolutely rebook with them again—eyes closed. Highly recommended!”

“Cherisse was amazing with my little guy Sampson. It was our first time leaving him with anyone. He is almost 13 years old and doesn't like eating his food anyplace but home. She was able to make him feel comfortable and safe that he ate. I can't even get him to eat outside, so I'm grateful to her for taking care of him. He has always had a hard time trusting because he has been attacked by other dogs. She sent me a lot of pictures so I would able to know he was happy and doing great.”
“Cyd Marie was an amazing Petsitter for little Henry. She treated Henry as her own and kept me posted at least 3 times per day - with photos. It was like Henry was on a doggy vacation. I will absolutely use Cyd Marie again and have already asked her if she’d like to care for Henry again.. she said yes!”
“She was amazing with our boy! He was very nervous at first but she made him feel welcome and safe. I loved getting pictures and a daily summary from her. She went above and beyond to make his stay enjoyable.”

Angelica was absolutely amazing with our dog, Frankie! She was very attentive and took excellent care of him. The daily pictures and videos truly gave us peace of mind while we were away. We could tell Frankie was happy and well cared for. We would definitely recommend Angelica and will absolutely book with her again.

Maria took great care of Loki! Communication was excellent throughout the stay, and she made sure he was treated with so much kindness and attention. I really appreciated how well she looked after him, Loki was happy and comfortable the whole time. I would definitely book with her again! 🐾💙

Cherisse was absolutely wonderful. Communication was great and her response time was always quick, which made me feel very at ease. She sent photos, videos and regular updates of my dog, and I could tell he was happy and relaxed the entire time. Her home is very tidy, smells great, and is nicely kept, with a fenced-in backyard that feels safe and secure. Her dogs and cat are super chill and well socialized, which made the environment even better for my pup. The location is also very convenient. I felt like my dog was cared for as if he were her own. I would not hesitate to book with her again and highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy, loving sitter.

I cannot say enough great things about Malia! She was amazing with Hulk (who isn’t easy) She sent updates and pictures everyday. Hulk was so sad to leave. He stared out the back window as we drove away. He really loved her and her boyfriend. Such a great experience!
Kevin has been wonderful….He keeps me updated, and even in my exhaustive busy time traveling it puts a smile on my face and an added relief knowing Maxx is in good hands! Maxx even got a buddy in the way of Kevin’s husky and they go to the dog park to play and also share fun with Kevin’s family!
