I have booked with Felicia three times now, and she has consistently provided a great experience. What stands out most is her attention to detail; she asks a lot of questions upfront to make sure she fully understands my dog's routine and comfort levels. It’s clear she wants to get everything exactly right, which gives me a lot of peace of mind while I'm away. She is reliable, communicative, and truly cares about the well being of the animals in her care. I highly recommend her if you’re looking for someone thorough and attentive!

Erin was amazing! She was very easy to communicate with to set up the booking, asked plenty of questions to make sure Diablo and I were taken care of, and sent me picture and video updates of them enjoying each other's company. If possible, I will book her again in the future!

Amy was so great with our dogs!! She walked them, hung out with them, and kept us updated with photos. She was always quick to respond and made us feel totally at ease while we were away. We came home to happy pups and a spotless house - such a great feeling. Highly recommend and would 100% book with her again!!

This is the third time Jordan has worked with us. She is just as amazing every time. Martin is always given so much love and taken care of so well. We really appreciate having someone to watch him that we know he is completely safe and happy with! We will continue to work with her in the future.

About: I have had a dog all my life both big and small. I also cat sit and I’m willing to take care of all animals. Helping with your pets helps me be happy:) I am a PA student and I have classes from 10-3 most days. I am available to check in before or after class at anytime. I also am available weekends as well. I currently don’t have any pets in my home. I live in an apartment and I’m willing to go sit at your place or check in on the animals when needed.

Hannah was able to help on short notice when I had to unexpectedly extend a trip due to illness. She asked lots of questions to make sure she was on top of everything, especially since we weren't able to do a usual meet and greet in advance. She kept me informed about the pets during her entire stay. Her willingness to be flexible and communicative made an awful situation less stressful.

I would be so hesitant to leave our dogs with anyone but Kelsey. This is the third time we've booked him for in home sitting and each time we come home, the pups are healthy and happy. This trip especially was important to us because it was our wedding and honeymoon. We wouldn't have been able to enjoy either without someone we trusted and appreciated as much as him.

Emma was FANTASTIC with our two little guys (dogs), one is a Maltese and the other is a mini Golden Doodle. Usually, they do not eat at least the first day and usually not for two or three days if we leave them with someone, which has always been people our dogs know and love. Not so with Emma; she was able to get them to eat their first meal and every meal thereafter. You could tell by the pictures, etc. that they were happy and enjoying her in our home, where she stayed with them for a week . . . in our home overnight that is. When we returned, of course, our pups were very happy to see us (almost overwhelmingly so) but it was a true telltale sign when they ran to the bedroom door where Emma stayed, and they started to whimper when they realized she wasn't there. We will definitely be using Emma again in the future. I recommend her without hesitation or reservation to watch your pets/family.

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 11. I recently had to let my two girls go, so I’m looking forward to loving on your babies. I have experience with puppies all the way to senior dogs. Both of my girls needed medication towards the end, so I’m familiar with administering pills on a schedule and anything else that goes with owning a senior dog. My oldest had dementia, so if your pup has that, I can handle the quirks that come with that. I’ve also watched my friends bigger dogs, and they love just as much cuddles as the little ones do. Taking your fur baby out for walks, cuddling with them, and playing with their favorite toys would bring so much joy. You’ll have peace of mind (and updates) if you let me take care of them like you would. I am a teacher, so during the weekends and summer I have all the time to spoil your precious baby. Being a teacher also means I can spend extended time with your pet during the summer. I’m very good at following schedules and routines to help make your pet feel as comfortable as possible while you’re away. I will love on them, play with them, and do anything else you need so both of you feel relaxed while you’re at work or on a trip.

Brieana is the best! We are very thankful to have her taking care of our Zeke. This time he got sick and she contacted us right away. She followed our instructions to help him get better quickly. Brieana also offered to take him to the vet, luckily he didn’t have to go. We feel at ease leaving Zeke with Brieana knowing that he will be spoiled, loved and well cared for.

Melissa house-sat for us over the weekend taking care of our dog and cat. She was prompt and kept them on schedule. She was very communicative on any questions and sent lots of pictures. She left the house tidy and even took out the trash for us as we had forgotten before we left. We would definitely recommend her and use her again in future.

Naja took great care of our 2 dogs and our home while we were on vacation. She sent frequent updates and was comfortable asking questions and informing us of the dogs' behaviour in aour absence. The biggest comment my wife and I have upon our return is that the house was clean and tidy, and the dogs were calm and happy. They had a bond with Naja that was clearly evident even in our presence upon our return. I think that is the true sign of the caring petsitter that Naja is. We would absolutely recommend her and will hope to use her services again.
