“Deandre was fabulous with our senior dog! Very reliable, trustworthy, and great with our dog. He sent updates and pictures each time he came, so it made me feel more at ease leaving him. We hope to get him to help us while we are here on the island this winter.”

“Becky had been a huge blessing to my pups when we are out of town. They love her and she has treated them as her own. I know they are in great hands with her. She is so easy to communicate with and always sends you photos and updates. We will always have Becky watching our babies!!! Thank you!!”

“Mary Jo took great care of our kitties while we were away. She responds quickly to all communication, and sent us fun pics and updates. We'd definitely use her again as our cat sitter.”

About: I have taken care of dogs, cats and about every other critter through out my lifetime. All sizes, shapes, ages, chronic illness, short term illness and disabled pets I have experience with all :) I am also a former vet assistant with 3 years of experience in clinical and emergency care. I work close to home-and have flexibility to go home during my work day.and have plenty of time to play/watch or walk your pet! Just let me know what works for you and we can something out I live in an apartment, but have plenty of dog friendly grass areas all over including a fenced in dog park and trails nearby. Also happy to travel to your home and stay overnight/not stay whatever is more comfortable for you and your pet.
“Lindsey did a great job taking care of my little girl. She validated every day that she ate, drank and used the litter. Most important to me Lindsey updated me every day on how she was doing, including pictures and comments. I will definitely have Lindsey take care of my little girl again.”

About: My daughter owns her a veterinarian clinic and is available to me 24 hours a day. I have taken care of friends and family pets. I am retired and have lots of pet time. I have 2 shelties who have been raised with cats and are very friendly with them. I will provide supervision, walks, play, exercise. Cold water always available and nutritious food. Attention always provided. Pets allowed on furniture for lots of cuddling.
About: I love dogs, because they are really man’s friend. They feel when you are sad, when are happy, and they share your laughter. I remember when Oreo travelled with me on the airport, and sat very quietly, because I told him to do so. Or when he does something bad, and like a baby, tries to avoid eye contact, does anything to distract you from what he horribly done. Or when he just got s bath of a shower and runs around the house like z crazy nut to dry himself. I can go on and on and on. They are very pure inside, innocent, and always give you unconditional love.... I love their cute face all kinds. I love dogs, because they are really man’s friend.
