“Jayden is phenomenal! She went to extra efforts to make sure she was well prepared to care for our three dogs while we were away for the weekend. Her communication and professionalism are top notch. Our three dogs were clearly well cared for and were so content when we arrived home. 10/10!”
“Kim did so well with our 4 fur babies. Dealing with one on medication and one with itchy skin. The cat like her so much she is giving me the cold shoulder after she left. I also appreciated the updates and pictures. We will definitely have her back for the next time we have to leave the “kids” at home.”

About: I have two furry friends of my own, starting when I was 16. Grew up with different dogs and cats as well. I also take care of other friends pets while they’re away, or if I’m having a pet play date! As I am a freelance artist, my schedule is very flexible. This allows me to provide the care your pet is used to and when you need it. I am very loving and adaptable to the pets I care for. I never use harsh tactics if they are misbehaving, instead I believe in positive reinforcement. I am always very calm and patient as well as attentive to their personalities.
“She did a great job, and last minute too.”
“Harley and Chloe got along well with Samantha. While Harley was a bit hesitant at first he ended up sleeping in bed with her. That tells me a lot! I would not hesitate to have Samantha come back to watch the dogs again.”
“Sydney was a wonderful pet sitter! Very mature, responsible, and even went above and beyond caring for our pup with an unexpected medical complication.”
About: I've had two family dogs, one of my own, and many step-cats! Having worked in a veterinary office and pet sat families with multiple pets, I always love giving every pet special care and attention. I'm currently working a varying schedule, but I'm often working shorter days. This gives me a lot of flexibility with my available days and times, and more time to spend with your pet. I have a single-level home, a yard for your pet to explore, and a neighborhood that's great for walks. There are no pets in my home, so you can be sure there won't be any personality conflicts.
“Ellie took great care of our dog and cat. She was great with communication and sent us some cute pictures of our pets while we were away. Will definitely rebook with her!”
About: I have always sought opportunities to connect with animals, starting with my early experience in a veterinary clinic, and most recently being an animal care internship at the Lake Superior Zoo and my job as a veterinary assistant. I respect all animals as fellow individuals with unique personalities and needs. My dog was my very best friend, and I have treated my rabbit as family member for over 12 years, so I understand how important reliability is when working with other people's pets. I can spend time with and exercise your pet at any time on Thursdays. I am also available most Saturdays, Sundays, and Mondays around any spontaneous personal plans I might make. Sometimes I am unavailable on weekends due to travel. I bring supplies such as treats, water, and drying towels as appropriate for each walk. I always monitor my animal buddy's physical and emotional wellbeing, and prioritize a safe and fun experience. This includes a recognition and protection of boundaries that your pet may have with me and with other animals and people. I value including pets in engaging activities that may interest your pet, and I will reinforce any training that is currently underway.
“Kelsey provided great care for our elderly dog and 2 cats while we were away. She was professional and accommodating, came by to meet everyone ahead of time, made sure she knew about our pets' habits and quirks, and sent regular updates and photos while we were gone. We would definitely use Kelsey's services again when we can't take our dog along with us.”

19. Olivia W.
“I have known Olivia for almost a year, since she became employed at the Dougherty Veterinary Clinic. I have known her as a thoughtful, kind, intelligent, motivated and responsible employee. I have also had her take care of my own two dogs while I have been away. She put up with a crazy miniature pinscher and and elderly poodle and went above and beyond in taking care of them. I had really only expected her to feed them and bring them out for bathroom duties, but she spent hours playing and interacting with them! Olivia is a very special young lady and I would recommend her highly, not just as a responsible and loving pet caregiver, but a truly delightful person. Lisa Jeanetta DVM.
