âAlex is truly incredible. Her soft, gentle demeanor combined with her knowledge on how to care for pets makes her a perfect choice. She really helped us out last minute on a holiday weekend. We ( and our fur babies ) look forward to working with her in the future.â

âI cannot express how grateful I am to Yaritza. I have a very anxious Chihuahua that suffers from separation. Yaritza was very aware of this and highly patient. She was highly communicative and thoughtful. This is the 1st time in a long time that I have felt at ease on trip that I had I had to leave my fur babies behind.â

âGreat communication, she took great care of our dog while we were away. She administered medication and dealt with his anxiety issues with ease! Highly recommend!â

âElizabeth was great to work with. She was on time, followed instructions perfectly and most importantly my pups had a great time with her and were well cared for. Thank you!đ we will be happy to have you back.â

âDanielle was super kind and attentive with our pups. Aside from being a reliable sitter, she was extremely flexible and friendly with her service. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone I know.â

âPennie was everything my dogs and I needed! From the first contact to the very end she was responsive and great to work with. She was able to handle my overly excited dogs when she arrived, her calm demeanor helped them settle quickly. Pennie kept their normal schedule and my dogs were completely content that I was away, this made my very happy and settled my nerves about leaving them. Pennie will be my go to for now on.â


About: I have taken care of all ages and levels of need dogs and cats (as well as a broad range of other animals like goats, horses, reptiles, guinea pigs, etc). From puppies to senior dogs and cats as well as dogs with extensive medical needs. I can administer insulin/shots and have also given medication in pill and liquid form. Whatever level of care your beloved pet may need, I would love to help! I currently have open availability and can shift my routine to meet your schedule needs. I have a working car if needed for emergencies and I love going for walks. Iâm happy to abide by any house rules you have for your space and any additional needs you may have. I send pictures/videos of your furry family member at least once a day and prefer to send them more often if youâre comfortable with that! Typically, I also do plant care as well if I am pet sitting in your home.
âVanessa H. Is such a great responsible petsitter. She came to our house and stayed for six days and nights with our Catahoula dog. She was super and on the ball with everything I asked of her. From feedings to let outs, play time, videos and pics she kept up on all of it. I highly recommend her as my favorite pick., to let her stay with your furbabies.â

âSia did an excellent job taking care of Kaylee for a week while on vacation. Was able to get in touch with her as needed. She sent a daily picture of Kaylee and any updates. Would hire her again in future outings.â

About: I love to be able to care and provide happiness to all animals, being able to give them love and take care of their needs while their fur parents are at work is an honor. I currently have availability for early morning 6am-11am Monday-Friday . I ask for at least 1 day advance for booking and cancellations. For any hours outside of these please contact me and I may be able to accommodate. I find it very important to have a set routine and schedule for my own pets to give them a safe and comfortable life that sets them up for success.
About: I have had a big passion for animals since childhood. I grew up with many animals and always dreamed of working with animals. I graduated from university with an associate in veterinary technician. I been working for several years in veterinary medicine and doggy daycare i really have fun and enjoy all my time with them. Iâm currently working 3 days per week, usually Iâm off on Sunday and the rest of the time at home. My schedule rotates, I do not always have the same days off. I have an empty room only for them, small cage if needed and a porch that they can be around. Iâm a pet friendly and I always walk my dog around so he can enjoy the complex.

âLuciano took very good care of Max and sent nice photos. He also made a very clever video with his making doggy noises that resulted in Max cocking his heads and looking just adorable. I would hire him again without reservation as he is a very nice responsible, young man.â
âMandie is absolutely incredible. Not only does she treat your dog like her own, but she ensures they feel loved like you would yourself. This is the second time Mandie took care of our Bean and I think we found our dog sitter for life. She sends so many pictures and videos and Bean is always so happy when she comes over to see him â I mean really, he gets more excited for her to come over than when my husband and I come home đ . Mandie is also just a joy of a person who is punctual, clean, flexible with our hectic schedules and we are always happy to have her sit at our house. Seriously donât think twice, and book Mandie to watch your pup ASAP. You wonât regret it!â

About: This job helps me pay my school tuition. So please book with me it would really mean a lot:) I love playing with dogs!! Iâve taken care of dogs since I was 11. I really enjoyed it because I love animals. In the summer I had an internship at a doggy daycare. I would feed, bathe, train puppies and even take care of senior dogs too. Iâm currently attending vet assistant school so I have limited availability during the week but open during weekends! I would have free time to have playtime with your wonderful dogs. Also book with me during holidays!! I unfortunately donât have a fenced yard. But I will definitely keep an extra eye out on yall babies. I would have a fun but also safe environment for these beautiful pets.
âIzabella was an answer to our prayers. She got rave reviews from all our friends when she would be outside with our little Krash . They said she was loving and cuddly, just what he needs. She kept a good eye on our home, you couldn't even tell she has been here at all. Most of all she kept us in touch by photos and texts to let us know how he was doing. I highly recommend her and will use her again.â

âJordyn was great! She staying at my place and watched my two dogs while I was on a work trip. She was easy to communicate with and sent pics of my boys throughout her time with them. I will definitely be booking with Jordyn again! Thanks Jordyn.â

Kendra and her husband were amazing. I left them with my senior dog and puppy overnight and unfortunately my puppy had a huge mess in her crate overnight and they were so kind to clean it all up. They sent updates and pictures and were very kind and attentive! Communication was amazing. Thanks again, Kendra! Iâm so sorry for the mess!!!

Jyana was a quick response and great at keeping us up to date on the petsâ day. She kept to their routine perfectly and gave them lots of cuddles. Even my very shy cat felt comfortable enough to make an appearance to her towards the end of the day. She was polite and a wonderful house guest as well; I highly recommend and would ask her help in the future

April is great. This is our 2nd time hiring her to care for our 2 dogs and 3 cats. They love her and she goes above and beyond . She takes care of our house also, brings in the mail and packages makes sure everyone is safe and sound. We would recommend her to our family and friends she deserves more than 5 stars.. We will be using her again .Thank you April
