Allison did a fabulous job caring for our 3 kitties. She was attentive to detail and loved on them each day. I would definitely rebook her and encourage others to do so.

Brittany was a lifesaver for me last week! I messaged last minute needing a drop-in sitter for my cat while I was going to be out of town. She responded almost immediately and was extremely communicative, providing photos, and lots of love to Rodger while I was away. She filled up food, water and made sure he had all his needs met. He was a happy boy upon my return and I am so grateful!

About: My name is Mikayla, I have always been a dog lover and recently got a second dog of just my own! I am a 25 year old college student looking to love on your furry friend while you enjoy a nice vacation or maybe just a solid day at work. I have more experience with bigger doggos but am willing for any size you have! I work from 7:30 am - 4 pm Monday through Friday so I am available anytime after that, weekends all day, and any holidays we have off as well. My dog is a 6 year old mini Australian Shepherd and I just got an 11 week old chocolate lab! I also have had 2 German shepherds in the past. I am willing to dedicate the time and effort into your dog to ensure they get the exercise and potty relief that they need! I can also send picture updates if that calms you because I know it is hard to leave my fur babies. I am able to be with your dogs from 4 pm until 7 am the following day during the week, all day on weekends, and any major holidays I will be off as well. Whether in my home or yours, I am able to send photo or video updates so you know your pet is well and happy. I also have a fenced in privacy fence and my two dogs who love to play!

Victoria loves cats and dogs and treats them like family members. She’s very gentle, kind and patient with them, and understands their needs. She’s also very honest and I trust her in my home unsupervised. I would recommend her very highly to pet sit. My dog Baxter loves her.

About: Hey there! I’m Mary, and I’ve been dedicated to providing top-notch pet care for over 15 years. My love for animals spans across many species, including cats, dogs, and many more. I have extensive experience working with dogs of all sizes, especially those with special behavioral needs, medical conditions, and boundless energy. As a proud pet parent of 2 rescue cats and 3 rescue dogs, I understand the unique bond we share with our furry (and scaly!) friends. With reliable transportation, flexible hours, and a willingness to travel up to 30 miles, I am committed to ensuring your pets receive the best care possible. Being a huge animal lover, I treat every pet like my own, providing them with the love and attention they deserve. Looking forward to meeting you and your amazing pets! 🐾 I work from home during the day but have a lot of flexibility in my schedule and can ensure excellent, timely care for your pets! When it comes to pet care, I prioritize safety, trust, and a comforting environment to ensure that every pet feels secure and loved. Here's how I manage this both in my home and in my client's homes: >>>> IN MY HOME <<< Safety First: My home is pet-proofed to remove any hazards. This includes securing small objects, ensuring plants are non-toxic, and blocking off any dangerous areas. Comfortable Spaces: I create cozy areas for pets to relax and sleep, with plenty of beds, blankets, and safe toys. Routine: I maintain a consistent routine for feeding, exercise, and play to help pets feel secure and settled. Large, Fenced Backyard: With a spacious, fenced backyard, pets have ample space to run and play securely. Cleanliness: I keep a clean and hygienic environment to prevent any health issues. Regular cleaning of litter boxes, bowls, and bedding is a must. >>>> IN MY CLIENT'S HOME <<<< Respect and Familiarity: I follow the pet's existing routine and respect their usual spaces and boundaries to minimize stress. Communication: I maintain open communication with pet owners, providing updates and addressing any concerns immediately. Pet-Specific Needs: I adapt my care based on the pet’s unique needs, from administering medications to handling specific dietary requirements. Safety Checks: I ensure the environment is safe, checking for potential hazards and making sure the pet has access to their favorite spots and comfort items. Trust and a loving environment are at the core of my pet care philosophy. Whether in my home or yours, I’m dedicated to creating a safe, loving, and engaging space for your furry (or scaly!) friend. 🐾
