3. Claudia H.
“Claudia was personable, great with animals and quick at responding to questions. I've never used rover before but I felt totally comfortable with her watching my kitty while I was on vacation. And the pictures that she sent were very comforting knowing that my baby girl was happy and getting loves!”
4. Josh H.
“Josh is a good chap. He has recounted over 10 years of experience working with animals, livestock and exotic pets, and has a genuine compassion for animal caretaking. Animals seem to gravitate towards him. He has a very relaxed demeanor and all my pets adore him. I've seen a squirrel approach him and he fed it by hand like it was an everyday occurance. He is organized, timely, and communicates regularly with updates about the dogs. I am very grateful to have Josh looking out for the dogs.”

8. Emily N.
“Emily has been dog sitting for me for the past 2 years and is outstanding! She goes above and beyond to make sure my dogs' needs are met. She made sure both of my dogs' medication were administered correctly and on time. My Maggie has seperation anxiety when I leave and she will stop eating. Emily actually hand fed her so that she would eat. I know that when Emily is dog sitting for me, my pups are in the best care possible. I highly reccomend Emily as a dog sitter. Your dog will love her and you will have complete peace of mind knowing they are in great hands!”
9. Brooke W.
“Our cat looks so happy in her photos and both him and our house were in great shape when we came back. Although our feeding/litter systems are automated, she kept an eye on them and refill and replaced bags as needed. We look forward to having her come take care of Igor again. Thank you Brooke!”

About: I grew up with dogs and cats my whole life. As an adult, I cared for a bearded dragon for a few years. We rescued two small dogs, Sammy and Lola, a few years ago. Sammy is a chihuahua mix from California and Lola is a Korean village dog from Korea! I’ve watched family member pets over night, cared for friends dogs and cats in their home, given oral medications to cats and dogs, and taken care of my own pets. Pets, dogs specifically, are so much fun and bring me a lot of joy. It would be a pleasure to watch your fur baby or take it for a walk! Please feel free to ask me any questions! I am currently home full time and available to care for your pet at any time! I have a pack of 3 dogs - 2 under 15lbs and 1 at 30lbs. They love meeting new friends! I have a fenced yard and three friendly pups to keep your furbaby entertained. The dogs are allowed on the furniture and generally sleep in bed with us. If your dog is kennel trained, they can be kenneled at night if that is your preference.

About: I have always been a pet lover, and with three fur babies of my own, I understand how precious they are and how hard it is to trust someone with their care.

I treat every pet as if they were my own, providing plenty of love, attention, and playtime to keep them happy and healthy. You can count on me to be punctual, responsible, and dedicated to the well-being of your pets while you’re away. I look forward to meeting you and your furry friends! Daily pet care seamlessly fits into my routine as I work part-time with a flexible schedule, allowing me to provide consistent and attentive care for your pets throughout the day. I care for your pet in your home with the same love and attention I give my own, ensuring they feel safe, happy, and well-cared for. I take the time to build trust and make sure your pet feels comfortable with me, creating a positive and stress-free experience.

“We couldn't ask for better pet sitters than Tina & Ayleah. Both are very caring and go out of their way to help. During their stay our furnace broke down and we lost power. But even though they were the once that had to suffer the most, they kept our spirits up and made sure that everything is taking care of. Our cat Josie adores them. We wouldn't think twice to ask them to pet / house sit again!”
