“I am thoroughly happy to hear that my boys had a great time at her house and just an overall great experience. Jill was pretty great with them, treating them as if they were her pets which is amazing. Will definitely be booking with her for future pet sitting needs...thank you!!😁”
“Alexis did an amazing job during Tommy's first stay. The vibe of her home was super welcoming and Tommy settled right in. She kept me updated throughout the stay and took great care of my guy. Highly recommended!”
About: I have been pet sitting for friends and family since I was in jr high school. I currently have 1 dog 3 fish, and 2 humans I keep alive! I'm patient, I have lots of energy but also like to chill if that's what your pup would prefer! I've recently made some major lifestyle changes to make myself more flexible and accessible for my family! This gives me the chance to be available about anytime of day. I would love to meet you and your pets! At this point my calendar is fairly open, I am flexible and willing to work with moving and changing schedules. Most of my day involves school pick up and off and being a taxi to evening dance classes, which is easily done with or around the schedule of an extra furry friend or 2. We have 1 Brittany. She she has full use of all upstairs furniture, a fully enclosed backyard and probably too many snacks! They are happy to welcome new friends to sit on their sofas!
“Thank you Ainsley - it was wonderful to have complete peace of mind while we were away for more than a week from our anxious/nervous dog. He ate, slept, and exercised well and even got to socialize and learn from his role model, Ted! We can't wait to board again with Aisnley and Ted!”
About: Im very patient when it comes to teaching. I love nurturing animals and helping them become healthier. I can teach potty training and no leash pulling! Im currently working for delivery services so Im very convenient for any hours! I usually get up around 8:00 am and take my dog out. Then feed him an hour later and then again around 5. He also gets little healthy snacks in between such as fruit or plain greek yogurt! I have a gated backyard and a buddy to keep your friend company :). I also make sure everyone is playing safely and fair. I have an attic room to myself plenty of space.
“Aubrey was great and were so lucky to have found her! She was accommodating, communicative, and super sweet. Her dog, Stevie, was super playful and the exact companion we wanted for Gunner while we were away. We hope to rebook with her in the future and definitely recommend! Thanks Aubrey!”
“We are so thankful we found Kathy to watch our beagle,Kona. She is absolutely the best! We felt comfortable from the very first time we met Kathy during our Meet and Greet. She watched Kona for two days when we went out of town. Kathy kept us updated and sent pictures. Communication was awesome! She loves dogs and treats them like one of her own. Kona loved going for walks and playing with her dog Charleigh. We already have dates set for Kathy to watch Kona during our upcoming trips. She is truly amazing!”
“Alexis did a fantastic job looking after my dog Barrington for the weekend and I would highly recommend her as your pet sitter! She sent lots of updates and pictures and her communication was fast and easy to work with. Her dog Simon is a sweetheart and got along with Barrington really well. Alexis even brought out pet steps for Barrington to use that were from her old dog which was super thoughtful. Alexis is kind and her love for animals is evident!!”
“We had such a great experience with Kalli watching our dog and cat for 5 nights! She was super flexible, communicative, and kept us updated with pictures and messages throughout our trip. It gave us so much peace of mind knowing they were in great hands. We would absolutely use her again! 🐾”
“Savannah is incredible! Our dog, Skye, stayed with her for 14 days, which was her first time staying with someone outside of our immediate family. Skye can be a bit anxious and gets very skittish around fireworks. Savannah took amazing care of her by providing care and support during the 4th of July fireworks celebrations, which meant so much to us and showed how much she truly cares. She gave Skye a structured routine and provided daily walks that Skye absolutely loved. Savannah also let us bring Skye's kennel, playpen, and large mat to her home so she could have a true "home away from home" setup. Her communication was wonderful—she sent us reassuring updates and pictures almost daily. When my daughters picked up Skye, you could see that she was a happy dog and was well taken care of by Savannah. We would absolutely choose Savannah to babysit Skye again in the future!”
“This is the 2nd time we have had Jeffrey watch Maggie in the last few weeks. When we got to his house to drop her off she immediately ran to his front door to get in. We are thrilled the way he takes care of our dog!”
“Sarah did a fantastic job watching Louie. She sent pictures daily, has a dog park located in her complex, and even went to extra mile in giving Lou a bath when he was dirty. I would recommend Sarah to anyone looking for a reliable dog sitter!”
“Jennifer and her family boarded my cat Stoke for 3 nights. They made sure he had a comfortable space. The children knew how to gently approach and pet cats. Everyone seemed genuinely happy to welcome another pet into their home temporarily rather than just make a buck. It was easy to communicate with Jennifer and I think Stoke had a good experience. I highly recommend.”
“Brandon was great! He took care of my bully mix who was recently diagnosed with a UTI & has severe allergies. Brandon had Thicc'ems for a full week and took care of all her medication needs, which had to be adjusted throughout the week. Thicc'ems also has a delicate hygiene regimen which was handled without complaint after providing a demo. Pics & updates were provided & my baby came home happy and healthy.”
