About: I’ve had dogs and cats my whole life growing up and been a pet owner for 18 years. I have walked, feed and cared for our family’s, friends, and neighbors. I’m am great with younger pets that need to release some energy and great with older pets that need a little bit more patience and time. I can’t wait to meet your pet and give a helping hand to your family. I’m completely flexible any days and times. Happy to do a meet and greet free of change! I currently own two pups named Dunkin and missy and a cat named bonnaroo. Which I care routinely. I don’t have any other big jobs right now so my main goal is focusing on the animals and making sure they get exercise. I love to get exercise and walk with my dogs. Also love to throw the ball with my dogs. By also Making sure they have food and water and stay healthy.
About: I've lived with dogs just about my entire life, and I've assisted in their care from the beginning to end of their lives. I currently live with one dog in the house, and I care for him alone on weekdays, including administering medications when needed. I also have experience taking care of other types of animals - I am versatile and flexible. I care for my own pet during the weekdays, but for most of the week he uses a daycare service, leaving me free to spend longer amounts of time elsewhere. He is also older and okay with being left in the house for a few hours even when I'm the only one watching him. I'm more than comfortable watching the house as well as the pets, and I will make sure that any house rules (no paws on the counter, etc) are upheld. As long as I'm acquainted with your house facilities, I will leave the place as neat as when I arrived, if not a little cleaner. :)
“Bo watched our senior dog on very short notice, and she was amazing! She left us very detailed notes after each 30-minute visit and went out of her way to make sure Bella was comfortable. It was by far our best River experience. We are so thankful to have had someone so kind, capable, and attentive as a pet sitter and will definitely be calling her again! ?”


“Michelle was wonderful with Allie (my cat). She was great about making sure I knew Allie was taken care of each day and was very responsive to any messages I sent. The next time I’m looking for someone to watch Allie while I’m gone, Michelle is the first I’ll reach out to.”

“We had an excellent experience with Andrew caring for our two cats. He provided thoughtful updates, followed all instructions perfectly, and made us feel completely at ease while we were away. Our cats were happy, comfortable, and clearly well looked after. We’re so grateful for his care and would highly recommend him to anyone needing a dependable sitter.”

“Bryan did an excellent job dropping in on our two elderly dogs and my cat 4x a day for three days. I highly recommend him. He followed my instructions with medications for my dogs precisely.
