Stephanie was super attentive with Loki, and made sure he had water and food all weekend. First time booking her and I will absolutely be booking her again, and telling my friends about it. She sent me 30+ pictures of him everyday, and gave me a detailed description on how the visit went.

Sara was truly wonderful with our pets! She was flexible and able to accommodate us over the holidays and truly went above and beyond to make sure our cats were happy and healthy while we were gone. It’s such a relief to have found a person we can trust with our pets!

Thank you Robin for taking such great care for my pups. One of my dogs is quite timid and is scared of her own shadow. It makes business travel a challenge for me. Robin was very patient and eventually my dog warmed up to her. I had a flight delay and I needed an unexpected extra booking. Robin was super accommodating. She is awesome

Joe has been taking great care of my dog, August. He is very thorough with his visits, leaving my pup happy and well-exercised along with a good note and some pictures so I know my dog is happy! Joe is very reliable, and my dog is noticeably happier after his visits. Thank you for taking great care of my dog!

About: I do not remember a time where my family did not have dogs. I have been taking care of dogs since I can remember and currently have a dog of my own. She has been one of the best things that has happened to me and I wouldn't trade her for the world. I love dogs and would enjoy being around them all of the time. It sounds like the best job ever! It makes my day so much better when I come home to my dogs and I definitely understand how important dogs are and how much of a difference they can have in a persons life. Since I got a dog who I called my own I wouldn't trade her for the world. I have moved to a different state for school and unfortunately could not bring my dog with me. I would love to spend time with your fur babies and treat them as my own! I am currently going to school full time, therefore I have a pretty flexible schedule that will allow me to spend quality time with your pups! I am in an apartment with a balcony, but my apartment does have a “dog park on site” with some room to run and get some energy out.

About: I am great with dogs and have plenty of experience caring for both dogs and cats. I currently have three corgis, and through raising them I’ve developed a strong understanding of how to keep pets happy, active, and well cared for. They love to play and stay active, and I enjoy giving them the attention and exercise they need every day. I’ve had dogs for as long as I can remember, which is where I learned responsibility, patience, and the unconditional love that comes with caring for animals. I’m passionate about providing that same level of care, attention, and affection to every pet I look after. Available evenings and weekends. I work Monday - Friday from 7:30 - 3:30. Fridays I work until 4:30pm. I have weekends and holidays since I work for a private school. I can easily follow instruction. I am good with giving animals medication, keeping them on a schedule and provide lots of fun and cuddles. I always want to maintain a safe environment for our furry friend.

Holly has been absolutely wonderful with our babies. She is kind, attentive, and incredibly caring. She keeps us updated throughout the day and sends pictures of everything, which gives us so much peace of mind. It’s clear she truly enjoys spending time with them — she plays, engages, and entertains them so lovingly. She’s also an amazing photographer! The pictures she sends aren’t just updates — they’re beautiful, frame-worthy moments we genuinely treasure. We feel so lucky to have found Holly and would wholeheartedly recommend her to any family. 💛
