About: I’ve taken care of various dog and cat breeds to help out friends and family for years. I’ve had to follow specific instructions based on behavior and/or medical needs of the animal. I’ve been relied on for potty breaks, meal times, and a little activity. I work full time, however, I’m available for afternoon walks/care during the week. On weekends, I have flexibility with my schedule to include play dates, feedings, etc. I have a small indoor space to enjoy, as well as, a BIG unfenced yard. I prefer to use a leash when outdoors at all times unless I brought them to a fenced in area or are known to stay close to home.
“Sue was wonderful. Our dogs took minimal time being comfortable with her, where they normally take 15-30 min to warm up to people. When we returned home the dogs were happy and Sue left the house spotless. Thank you so much for a great experience, Sue!”
“Peter and Sarah are very nice people and I felt completely comfortable leaving my dog for 11 days with them. They do not work outside the home, so they are available most of the day. They took great care of my house (even watering my extensive garden which was above and beyond). Can't recommend them highly enough.”
About: I have had a passion for animals my whole life, and love getting to care for new pets and their individual needs. I have a dog, cat, and bunny, but it’s not enough so I want to love yours! I follow detailed requests and always promise extra pets. I have a very flexible schedule and work remotely part time. I reply extremely quickly to texts and am ready to answer questions, concerns, and update you with your pets’ photos! I am great with following directions or special requests for pets and am always responsible in your home. I will make sure your fur baby is safe and sound.
“Heidi was so good with my dogs ! They loved her ! I enjoyed my vacation without a worry at all- I knew my dogs would be in the best hands with her! She let me know that everything was going well and sent me pics ! I highly recommend her for your pet needs !!!”
About: I have over 10 years experience with sitting cats, dogs and other small animals. Most of my pet-sitting clients are repeat families I’ve connected with through the local community. I have experience with extended in-home pet sitting, including overseeing household upkeep while clients are away. I am comfortable administering any oral medications needed, with provided instructions and tips. I love keeping you updated with photos and videos while you’re away and making sure your pet is happy, relaxed, and thriving! I have a flexible work schedule to be able to stay with your pets, or visit a number of times through out the day, to help accommodate your needs. I have experience in others homes where the pets feel most comfortable, and usually have a routine I can help maintain while your away! I also will attend to any other home chores like house plants, small pets like fish, or any problems that arise I will be sure you are aware right away.
“Danny was great! He sent videos and pictures of the fun the cats were having. The kitties learned new ways to play which was exciting for them. He stayed in our home and left it as he found it: We are very pleased with his care for our fur balls and will definitely request his services again.”
“Hilda stayed at our house and watched our dog and cat. She was wonderfully professional and as a bonus a wonderful house sitter as we came home to a cleaner house than we left it! I would not hesitate to hire her again.”
“I never left my dog with anyone except my daughter and only overnight and she’s almost 12. I was anxious to do so and Teri reassured me she’d take good care of her. I got texts throughout my trip with photos. I missed her but was able to relax and enjoy my vacation knowing she was being taken care. I would recommend Teri (and Molly) and definitely would use them again.”
About: I’ve been a pet parent for decades and cared for others pets in equal length. The most common feedback I hear is that those I care for look forward to their families leaving again soon, so they can have more fun with me. I’m not sure if that’s true but I treat every canine like my own. They’re the most important part of my day, meeting their needs and helping them be happy in a safe and fun environment is my goals. We have three dogs, we lost our 4th last November. When I say dogs are life, it’s exactly what I mean. From walkies to drop ins to overnights I’m available to provide care and support for your canine companion(s). Providing a safe and playful environment is paramount when caring for our furry friends. We treat our fenced yard for ticks with pet safe products applied by Orkin. My home is a safe haven for doggos complete with autonomous pet door and fun supervision. Activities are offered as are healthy snacks, water and love.
About: I love animals, i love nature. I’ve always been around animals, and i’ve lived with a dog and a cat for 4 years. I respect all living things, and i really enjoy taking care of them. I’m free most of the time. I walk and babysitt pets as often as i can. I’m pretty flexible so let me know what you need:) I cannot do any house boarding, but i can definitely babysitt your pet. I prefer over night stays because i use public transportation, so it’s easier if i can stay in one place but i definitely don’t require it. I’m pretty flexible so let me know exactly what you need and we can work together:)
“Christina did a fantastic job with my two rambunctious dogs! They loved her and she kept me up to date with pictures and regular messages. Will definitely book her again and highly recommend!”
About: I have extensive knowledge working with all types and demeanor of pets! I can’t wait to help out with your loved one!! Pick me and I will do my best to be their best friend! I currently work remote so weekly I can stop by for several hours at a time to assist. On weekends I have more availability and can stay over! I currently have a fenced in yard for my current dog but am also familiar with crating as well and will be happy to help however is needed
