We loved Kimberly and highly recommend her! She was amazing with my dog. He is an older dog with a few medical issues. I normally don’t like to ever leave him but Kimberly made me feel that he was safe and in good hands. She sent lots of pictures and videos each day. She was a pleasure to work with and we will definitely be using her again! Lisa

Abby was very accommodating and caring watching our high energy puppy for several days. Most importantly, we came home to a happy dog. Abby handled an unexpected medical issue promptly and professionally and we felt confident and at ease with our dog in Abby's care. It was our first time leaving him with someone other than family and we would definitely use Abby again in the future.

Kim is amazing. Such a kind person with a big heart, and a clear love for dogs. She has taken care of our pup twice so far and has done an absolutely incredible job. She provides regular detailed updates and photos and goes above and beyond by leaving a personalized hand written note at the end of the daycare session. She is also very trustworthy. We would highly recommend Kim as she is a great person and provides impeccable services!

Zabrina cared for our dog, Sandy, during our week-long international vacation, and we couldn’t be happier with the experience! Sandy has a high-maintenance schedule and requires a lot of attention, so we were very particular about finding the right dog sitter for our 4-year-old Shiba/Pit mix. Zabrina exceeded our expectations by taking all of our notes in stride and managing everything perfectly. She sent daily photo updates, which gave us so much peace of mind while we were away. Zabrina was friendly, professional, and genuinely cared about Sandy’s well-being. When we returned, Sandy was happy and relaxed, and our house was left spotless. We highly recommend Zabrina to anyone looking for a reliable, attentive, and caring dog sitter!

Leah is a wonderful cat sitter! She took great care of our two cats. It is a unique situation because they stay in different parts of the house, but she handled it like a pro! She played with them and spent time with them! She sent updates and photos! Looking forward to having Leah come back soon!

Marry was absolutely wonderful with our Lola! We did both a virtual and in-person meet and greet with Marry before we booked with her. On both occasions Marry was extremely organized and did an excellent job asking questions regarding our dog Lola's habits/needs/routine. While away, Marry took excellent care of our home, leaving it just as neat/clean as when we had left. She also did amazing with Lola while we were away, and we could tell Lola fell very comfortable with her. Lola had some tummy upset and, unfortunately, Marry had to take her out in the wee hours of the morning, as well as clean up after Lola had an incident in the home. Marry was excellent handling Lola's challenges and keeping us updated throughout our vacation. We would 100% recommend Marry to anyone looking for an extremely organized, caring, and thoughtful dog sitter. Thanks, Marry!

Alma is an amazing and trust worthy pet caregiver. I always have reassurance that my pets are in good hands when I am away. I have two dogs and two cats, and she’s been amazing with them all. My smallest dog, who has separation anxiety, has only responded well to Alma and loves having her around. She is the only person I can trust, and rely on to take care of my pets when I am away. She is well rounded an animal care, and truly loves animals.

About: I've been a pet owner my whole life! From cherished family dogs, cats, rodents and birds - to now owning my own senior rescue dog and fostering shelter dogs - I have plenty of experience caring for a variety of animals of all ages and sizes! I love to provide a safe, caring relationship with pets to make sure they feel comfortable and that they can be themselves. I work from home, so I'm fairly flexible when it comes to drop-in visits or overnight care as needed! I have plenty of time to hang with your pet and will just need to balance any responsibilities with my meeting schedule at work. I prefer providing care in your own home! I'll make sure to closely follow the routine you have for your pet so they feel comfortable and at ease.

Tinamarie is simply amazing! The care and love she shared with our 4 pups was wonderful. She kept us informed, played endlessly with my relentless border collie mix, and didn't mind the muddle if the night check-ins the pups gave her. Thank you, thank you, thank you. Four different digs w different needs and they all did fabulously thanks to her!

I have extensive experience with both dogs and cats, which allows me to effectively manage different behavioral and health requirements. Additionally, my strong communication skills foster trust and transparency with pet owners, as I provide regular updates and photos throughout their pet's stay. Combining my passion for animals with my commitment to their well-being, I create a loving and secure environment that promotes their happiness and health. I currently work part-time at night, providing me with flexible availability to care for pets during the day and nights I’m not working.

I’m eager to make pet care an even bigger part of my routine by offering services such as dog walking and pet sitting! In my home, I create a safe and welcoming environment for pets by pet-proofing all areas, securing harmful items, and providing cozy spaces for them to relax. Each pet has a designated safe zone where they can feel comfortable and secure. For clients’ homes, I maintain strict safety protocols, ensuring all doors and windows are securely closed and that pets are kept on a leash during walks. I respect the client's home by following their specific routines and rules. Additionally, I prioritize trust by providing regular updates and photos to pet owners, keeping them informed about their furry friends’ well-being. Whether in my home or theirs, I strive to create a loving atmosphere that prioritizes safety and comfort.

Lina has done house sitting for my dog Zues twice now. Each of these trips were long weekend outings. Both times I have come home to my house exactley as I left it and my dog disappointed I'm not Lina! Just kidding! But I can tell he has a good time with her and that she gives him plenty of attention while I'm gone. Lina stays in good contact with me while I'm away, and will send pictures if you ask for them. In a nutshell, Lina is trustworthy, caring for your pet, clean and reliable. In my book that's all you need!

Astrid is amazing!!! She is such a dog lover. She’ll do anything she can to make your pup happy. She showed him love, took him on many walks, and even ran with him! She kept me in the loop with everything and for that I couldn’t be more grateful. I would welcome her back into my home in a heartbeat. Bonus: I even had a neighbor text me to let me know how amazing she was!
