Veronica was great with my dog and great with checking in with me. I appreciated that she texted me to make sure my dog would be ok going outside when there was thunder. I highly recommend her!

Laura has been caring for our pets for several years and we HIGHLY recommend her if you’re looking for someone who will care for your pets as well as you do. She’s amazing with our two large dogs who are always thrilled to see her, and even our shy cat comes out when she’s around! She goes above and beyond to make sure every animal’s needs are met and that each has received their fair share of head scratches and belly rubs. Laura is a true animal lover and we are so lucky to know that our pets are always in good hands with her!

Jenna was amazing. This was the 1st time I’ve used a sitter for my pup. Remi (my toy poodle) was a little nervous at first but Jenna was so patient with her. I will definitely use her again!

Vanessa was fantastic with my 90lb pitbull. I was able to communicate clearly with her and she was very prompt with addressing any issues. I’m sure my pup will love to see her again. I will absolutely use her services in the future. Thank you, Vanessa.

I have had the pleasure of having Alexa take care of my two dogs. One is older, blind, deaf, and has some dementia. The other is a rescue that was abused in his former life. They immediately took a liking to her and enjoy their visits with her. She is reliable and punctual and goes above and beyond making sure they are happy and comfortable. I appreciate the daily updates and photos. I highly recommend Alexa to anyone looking for a caring, reliable and trustworthy dog sitter.

About: I have over 5 years of experience caring for my three dogs—Mya (14-year-old Silky), Maizie (6-year-old Australian Shepherd mix), and Zhu (13-year-old Black Lab). I’ve grown up with Maizie since she was a pup and have been with Mya and Zhu for five years, handling their care when my family is away. My deep bond with these dogs allows me to understand their unique needs and personalities. I specialize in attentive care for puppies and senior dogs and pride myself on making sure each pet feels comfortable, loved, and safe. As I work toward my CPA certification and prepare to start my accounting job in the summer, I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate time to pet care. I’m used to balancing multiple responsibilities, and I enjoy taking care of my own pets, so offering pet care services fits naturally into my routine. Whether it’s walking dogs or caring for cats, I make sure to give each pet the attention they need while managing my study and job preparation time efficiently. When caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, safety and comfort are my top priorities. At my home, I ensure a pet-friendly, secure environment, with plenty of space for pets to relax and explore. I make sure all areas are free of hazards, and I provide fresh water and safe spaces for rest. Whether it’s during walks or while watching pets at their home, I closely supervise them, ensuring they are always safe and comfortable. I also prioritize communication with clients to ensure they trust me with their pets' well-being, offering regular updates and being responsive to any specific needs or concerns.

About: I am a born animal lover! I have taken care of friends and neighbors pets since I was 12. I have experience walking, boarding, and administering medication. I grew up with Coker spaniels and several cats that I have loved taking care of. I recently moved away from home so I miss my pets and would love the chance to spend time with yours! I am currently working from home so I have a very flexible schedule to spend as much time with your pets as needed. They are my priority! I have no pets currently so my space is safe and comfortable for all pets. I have easy access in and out for potty breaks.
