Rob did an amazing job housesitting for us, he was great with our fur baby and kept the house immaculate. He even did more things that we did not ask him nor expect him to do. Highly recommend his services, we were very happy knowing our house and pup were left in good hands! Thanks a lot Rob!

Andrew is a godsend. We've had him to sit for our Rhodesian ridgeback and our Staffy twice, for 4 days and 10 days, respectively, and we have both times come back to 2 happy and healthy dogs, who looked at us like we had only been gone a short while. They had neither gained stress weight nor become too skinny, and we could tell Andrew had been diligent taking them out frequently. He had mixed in their favorite food toppers and given them their medicine as we asked. He is a kind person, and you can tell he thinks deeply about things, and people's and pets' feelings. He even swept and tidied up, got our mail from our mailbox, and had our packages all neatly inside. He is as the proverb says, a good traveler who leaves no mark, leaving our house exactly as, if not better than, he found it. I can't say enough about the peace of mind Andrew has given us, especially the second time, since we already knew we could trust him. We were able to go to Disney World and have a truly magical time because we knew he was caring for our dogs and our house as we would have done.

I have a full-time job that pays the bills but I am looking for ways to feed my soul. Overnights are great as well as drop ins.

About: I have many years of pet care experience. As long as I have had a pet I have always treated them like family. If you know me you know that pets are my entire life. Let me be one of your pet’s best friend. I go to school online full time from home during the school year. I am currently available to play with your pet(s), feed and walk them Monday through Friday. I will respect all of my clients rules if I am pet sitting in their home. I will do my best to accommodate my clients rules for pet sitting at my home.

About: I’ve had pets my whole life ranging from fish, amphibians, rodents, birds, cats, and dogs. I love connecting with animals and giving them all the love they deserve! I also am a former vet assistant (I now work at a vet lab) so I have experience with pets of all ages, temperaments, and health statuses. My priority is the pets’ safety and comfort, and will work with them to ensure we have a foundation of trust. I also can work enrichment into my visits to get their minds more stimulated or just give them a 15 minute belly rub if that’s more up their alley. I’ve also trained many of my pets so I can help introduce basic commands to puppies or reinforce commands and manners from older pets. I’m available pretty much every day for the summer. Once mid-August comes around, I’ll be available Sunday-Tuesday at all times and Wednesday-Saturday from 9-11 AM I can come in let the pets out, clean up messes from them, feed/water, play enrichment games or work on training, and give them lots of love!

To whom it may concern Bailey has been taking care of pets since he was just a young boy. He has the kindest heart and a soft soul. I would leave him with my doggies even if they were not feeling well, needed extra attention because of a surgery or illness. He will be there no matter what. Bailey is dependable, honest and best of all will love your pets. Anyone who comes across this guy knows they have found gold.

What can I say, Jazmine loves animals. She has been around animals all her life. She is good to them and good with them. One day our dog ran off. She went out for over an hour in the cold looking for him. Jazmine just knows when something is wrong with the dogs. Our same boy dog that ran off got stung by bees. I couldn't really tell but she saw he was starting to swell. Vet office here we come, he needed 3 Benadryl and a shot. Also my same dog (he was a real good dog but not too bright) ate my other dogs arthritis pills. Jazmine followed the trail. He ate 40 pills. Vet here we come. If it wasn't for Jazmine he would have died. Jazmine saved a bird hanging by its leg from a gutter. Took it to the vet. Jazmine just loves animals.
