“Brooke was very attentive to my kitty! She did more in watering and cleaning than I asked her to do and my kitty seemed to really take to her. She was also very accommodating in scheduling times to exchange keys and meet and greet. Would definitely use again!”
“Kate was great. She is friendly, polite, and was able to stop by when requested without any issues. She made sure our cat was taken care of when we were gone. Definitely recommend and will use in the future.”
“Steffany is wonderful! This particular visit, she noticed a change in my cat’s eating behavior and took her to the vet for an urgent appointment, making sure to communicate with me despite my trip to another country. I couldn’t have asked for her to handle it better, and I felt my fur kiddos were being taken care of like they were her own!”
“Erica has been great and super responsive! I really appreciate her for helping us while traveling. She is super nice and friendly, I would recommend her to anyone looking for a pet sitter! She takes the best pictures of my kitties and gives me great peace of mind while I’m away!!🫶🏼”
“This was our first time booking Emme and we couldn’t be happier. We loved the pictures and updates that she provided during every visit. She kept us well informed and loved on our dogs during every visit. Our boys were very well cared for.”
“We needed someone to let our senior dog out once a day while at work. Chante has been amazing. She is very reliable and kind to our dog. I can't thank her enough for helping us out.”
“Chloe is one of the best pet sitters we’ve ever had! She is so easy to work with, incredibly kind, and our pets love her to pieces. We rebook her all the time and cannot recommend her enough!!”
About: My dogs and I have been through AKC certified obedience training I'm experienced in walking multiple dogs at a time Can housesit and care for dogs with special needs Providing positive reinforcement and tasty bribes is my main method of gaining trust with a new dog friend. I'm open to meeting and discussing all forms of service ahead of time I have a flexible part time job that is generally from 9 - 4 Monday through Friday. These times are flexible so if you have a question about a particular day feel free to ask My 2 dogs and I walk almost everyday around our neighborhood just to get some adventure and smell some new fire hydrants. My house has a wood 6' privacy fence around the backyard and I have time to them out 5 or 6 times a day for bathroom breaks or to just run around an play. My dogs started being crate trained as a puppy but as they have grown older and more trusty we use them less and less. I use a lot of positive reinforcement and treat training to bond and build rapport. I feel comfortable around dogs of all shapes and sizes and would prefer to take care of new dogs in their home environment first. My dogs: I have a 6 year old 60lb female Portuguese water dog -- She's a big napper, cuddler and loves cats. My 3 year old, 30lb, male terrier mix is the feisty play pal that keeps everyone entertained.
“She was amazing! She let us know anytime something happened whether they chewed something up or got a scratch when she stopped by. She was very communicative. We will definitely be using her again!”
About: I have a wide variety of experience caring for animals, all the way from cats to horses! With two dogs and two cats of my own (and many more throughout the years), I’ve faced my fair share of complications and situations but have been able to handle them accordingly. I’ve had to care for pets with arthritis, hip and bone disease and elderly pets as well new puppies. I’m experienced in basic training such as sit, stay, and lay down. As of right now, I’m in the transfer between highschool and college, but I care for my pets daily. They are kept on a feeding schedule and get their daily exercise. I will treat your babies like my own! Depending on their needs, they will receive walks, playtime, nap times, and just plain fun! I like to keep them involved with my daily life (car rides, dog parks, etc.) and allow them to become comfortable with me on their own time! Every dog or cat is different and I’m willing to do whatever to make sure they are safe, happy, and healthy while you’re out!
About: I volunteered at CARE which is a no kill pet shelter for cats and dogs in 2014 and recently started volunteering at this place again, February 2018. My duties included feeding and making sure the animals had enough water. Cleaned out kennels and cages and would take the dogs outside and walk them. I have had dogs and cats since I was born and currently had a dog who loved being around other cats and dogs. She loved to play with animals as well and loved children. Her name was Daisy she is in my profile pic with me. Daisy was euthanized on September 1st, 2023. I now have another dog whose name is Emma. She’s a year old and as long as it’s ok with a client I bring her to pet sitting jobs. She loves other animals including cats and loves to play. She’s lovable and affectionate and loves attention. I also have a cat and her name is Maizy. She is four years old and I got her when she was almost 4 weeks old. I would take Daisy for walks and if I could take her with me to other places I did. One of the places I took her was to the pet store. I no longer wear a mask unless I have to. If you prefer for me to wear one please let me know and I will wear one. I use to work at a job which required me to work a 10 hour shift. I am now working at a full time job which has 8 hour shifts. I can work around my schedule if needed. My supervisor does work with me on switching my days around if needed. I can’t keep your pet in my apartment due to rules and restrictions but I can come to your home. I will provide my own food and necessities.
“Danielle is very responsible and followed my routine that I use for my two cats. I loved seeing the photos of them. It made my time away from them a little less stressful. I would recommend her and I also plan on using her in the future.”
