She is amazing! Our dog was obviously pampered and much more relaxed than usual when we get back. I’ve never been so confident that she was treated well and our house was exceptionally well cared for as well. She even taught our old dog a new game. 100% recommended.

Kelly was super attentive to our two cats and sent us updates while we were away. Our cats loved their time with her and we'll definitely ask her to sit again in the future!

Missy was thorough, kind and caring with all of our babies. When a cause for concern came up with one of our dogs, she photographed it and messaged us immediately. She left our house clean and tidy. Would definitely recommend her if you're looking for a thoughtful, responsible sitter.

Sophia was great! Her communication was excellent and Lacey (my very needy, anxious, and timid pup), loved her. I knew my pup was in good hands and well-taken care of. Sophia is an attentive, responsible, lovely dog/house sitter I would definitely hire again, and left my place looking great. Lacey was very happy! I can leave for trips and not have to worry that Lacey will get the care she needs.

Kiara was wonderful! She took excellent care of our dog and our home. I swear my dog was slightly disappointed to see that is wasn’t Kiara walking through the door. He must have had a wonderful time. Definitely will be calling Kiara to watch him again!

Clara is a wonderful dog-sitter, she sat for my 13 year old yellow lab who needs a lot of attention. She took her out more than needed, and even took her on walks (something I don’t even do at home😂). Maizy absolutely loves her and I recommend her to anyone needing a trustworthy sitter.

Kyle was great! He stayed in my apartment with Morty while I was in Texas. When I returned Morty was healthy and happy and my apartment was just as I left it. Kyle was quick to respond to messages and provided updates on how Morty was doing.

Emmalee was great! Our dog is very skittish and has separation anxiety, and Emmalee went out of her way to make sure she felt safe and to coax her to eat. She also took good care of her when Freya got scared in the thunderstorm. Highly recommend Emmalee!! She also took good care of the house and even stripped the bedding and loaded the washer before we got back!

Rhys was very responsive and communicative about Charlie's needs. He asked questions, sent me pictures, and Charlie had his happy face on, so I know he had a good time with Rhys. I would definitely recommend Rhys for your pet care needs!

Andrew was absolutely wonderful! He took care of our fur babies for several days, and was so attentive and loving to them. He sent us great pictures with hilarious captions that brightened our day. We knew that we had left them in great hands. When we came home, all of our pets seemed so happy, loved, and well taken care of. We can’t thank him enough and would recommend him to anyone! We will definitely be using his services again in the future.

About: I have many years of experience taking care of not just dogs and cats but exotic animals as well such as fish, birds, and reptiles! I also have extensive experience in administering medications to animals. I work full time as an animal keeper from 9-5 Friday-Tuesday. I am available all day Wednesday and Thursday and I am also available to do drop in visits before and after I go to work. I understand that different pets have different needs. And I follow instructions explicitly. I also know how much pet owners miss their fur babies when away so I make a point to send picture and updates.
