About: I've lived in a pet-owning family throughout my entire childhood. At one point or another, we owned a tank of fish, loads of different guinea pigs, two birds, and a dog. I am now a proud dog owner myself. I am currently working part-time and avilable week days mornings to have your fur baby (or babies) join my girl on our walks, or evenings to join us at a local dog park to burn off that energy before bed. Jinger loves doggie company, and I enjoy nature. For walks, Jinger and I would pick up your dog and either walk in your neighborhood or on nearby walking trails. If your dog does well with other dogs, there are multiple dog parks near me, which I have a good understanding of when the crowds are minimal, and Jinger loves doggie playmates. Apparently, I am too slow and boring.

About: I have had dogs my whole life and I know they love to burn energy. A tired dog is a happy dog but once they reach a certain age, like people, slow and steady is the way to go. I work full time in the military but have the unique ability to make my own hours and dog walking is a way to stay active while serving others. Interacting with dogs is always about comfort for them. So I find slow introductions for the first encounter are the way to go and after a good outing or play session around the house or neighborhood, the dog looks forward to the visits as they view it as social time.

About: I love animals and animals seem to dig me too. I grew up around many small to large dog breeds and I am a mother of a 10 year old Pomeranian named Baby and a fluffy Persian cat named Soda. Trust that I will cater to your dogs needs-even the silly wants too. Skills: senior pet care, attention to detail, communication, patience, ability to say no to puppy eyes, playful, safety first mindset. Im a part time worker now and if you let me know in advance I can make time for that. Please dont feel shy to ask. At home my cat and dog love each other and cuddle a lot but if your pets dont get along like mine did at first then I am perfectly equipped to separate them and care for them individually.

Dominique did a fantastic job. She kept the litter boxes clean, cleaned up when one of the cats vomited on the rug, kept them fed, and spent time with them each day. She also ensured there food dishes were clean and rinsed out and refilled their water dishes regularly. I came home to happy and healthy cats. I highly recommend Dominique.

Kayleigh was fantastic with our kitties! She was extremely communicative and let us know immediately about concerns with one of our older cats. We felt very comfortable leaving town and having our cats in the care of Kayleigh, and we wouldn’t hesitate to use her as a cat sitter in the future.

About: I’ve had experience with dogs and cats of all sizes of my own and of friends throughout my childhood. (I love animals!) I’m willing to sit your pet to the best I can and to your comfort! I am a recent high school graduate and currently have a flexible schedule, which allows me to dedicate plenty of time to pet care. I am especially available during weekday afternoons and evenings, as well as most weekends when needed. Before starting college, I have the availability to provide reliable attention, and companionship for pets based on your needs and routines! I helped care for our family dog, Mickey who was really old and unwell resulting in his passing under a year ago. I was responsible for taking him on walks, feeding him on a consistent schedule, and giving him any supplements or special care he needed. I have also helped care for other dogs by taking them outside for potty breaks, providing exercise and playtime, giving baths when needed, and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and well cared.

They were absolutely amazing. I just moved to the area from Texas and had to travel to Colorado for my niece’s birthday, but couldn’t bring my dog. My usual pet sitter is back in Texas, so I was unexpectedly without pet care. When the dates of my trip changed, they were generous and flexible enough to watch Scooby a little longer. Scooby normally takes a while to warm up to new people and can be particularly hesitant around men, but he bonded with them incredibly quickly. They truly exceeded my expectations. I will absolutely book again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for someone trustworthy and wonderful with pets.

Ashanti was so kind and flexible with our last-minute pet sitting request! She took time out of her holiday weekend to take care of our fur babies while we were gone, and she went above and beyond to make sure they were cared for. She was great with our pets, too. Our dog loved the extra attention!

Alyssa is fantastic!! She has watched our babies a couple of times now. Last time she did a drop in visit and came into our smoke detector beeping because of low battery along with some on edge pups. She texted us and then changed the batteries so the puppies would be comfortable waiting on us to return. That to me was true dedication and professionalism putting our babies first. Thank you Alyssa!!!

Joni was absolutely amazing. My day Chuey loves her and had a great time with her. Joni took lots of picture and provided updates during every visit. It was wonderful to see my baby taken such great care of during our vacation. Joni is just the sweetest and caring person. She definitely went above and beyond. Because of this, we feel such a close bond with Joni and will continue to use her when we go out of town. What a consummate professional!

Zack was AMAZING!! He answered any questions/concerns I had with care and took excellent care of my fur babies. I have never used a sitter service before, so I was cautious and a bit nervous, but his attentiveness with my animals, had me worry-free on my whole vacation. Felt like I was leaving them with a trusted friend. I highly recommend him if you need a sitter. 100000/10

Rosemary took wonderful care of our 3 dogs that vary in age and needs. We have one senior dog, and two with a lot of energy. After every visit we received a write up of what she did for the dog's and pictures of them playing outside. It was comforting to know that our dogs were being well cared for while we were away. Rosemary is an amazing pet sitter and I definitely would recommend her to care for your pets while you are away!

**5 stars just isn’t enough!** Brent did an absolutely amazing job with our pup, Cash. It truly felt like he was spending the weekend with family. He went above and beyond in every way—playing with Cash, giving him plenty of love and attention, and even cleaning up after his bathroom breaks without being asked. As a Dog Mom, it’s always hard to be away and trust someone else to care for your fur baby. But with Brent, there was no need to worry. He treated Cash like his own, and that gave me so much peace of mind. Brent is simply the best, and if I ever need a sitter again, he’s my **First Round Draft Pick**—no question! Thank you so much, Brent!
