“She handled my miscreant kitties beautifully (they get to go outside and sometimes don’t come in when planned but this was not an issue with Shelly)! I returned home to happy cats and that’s what it’s all about.”

About: I've grown up around dogs my entire life. As a child I volunteered to foster dogs until they were adopted. I've known and cared for dogs throughout their lifecycle, and I understand dog pack dynamics. So whether your pup is young and needs a good run or they're older and enjoy a slow walk & sniff, or anything in between, I'm confident I can safely care for them. I'm currently working part time so I have plenty of time to be around your pups and give them the attention they deserve. I can make time weekends or week days I have dependable transportation and a can do attitude. I respect the rules of a house and create a safe environment for the pups. Whether they need to be walked, crated, or fed at a certain time or any other requirements, I appreciate the need for structure and safety in caring for your animals
“Leo is an excellent pet sitter. We asked him to watch our two kitties (and some backyard strays) over a holiday while we were out of town. It was a last-minute request, and we are so thankful that Leo was available! Leo was very responsive throughout the whole booking process. When he came over for a meet-and-greet, he was attentive, perceptive, and inquisitive. It was clear that he really loves animals. While we were gone, Leo stopped by every day to tend to our girls' needs, and he made sure to spend time playing with both of them. He even got our shy girl, Cashew, to come out and play every day, which is very special. Leo kept us up to date while we were gone and sent us several pictures and videos to let us know the girls were doing well. We highly recommend Leo for your pet-sitting needs, and we will be calling on him in the future!”

“Candace loved on my kitties. That was so important for them while I was gone. I can't thank her enough for the care and the great photos. You know your cat is comfortable with someone when they twitch the end of their tail in a still photo. They got lots of play time. I would love to have her visit my cats again when I have to leave town without them. I recommend Candace.”

About: I love all animals! I have a calm and loving demeanor that helps build trust between me and the animals. I've been a dog parent for 12 years, a cat parent for 9 years, a cat foster parent for 10 years, and a life long animal lover! I work as a stage manager, meaning I'm typically at rehearsal in the late afternoon to mid evening. This means I can spend mornings, early afternoons, and overnights with your pet. My warm and calm demeanor with an emphasis on understanding and positive reinforcement builds trust and affection between me and the animals in my life. I can adjust what I do based on your animal's schedule and needs. I'm an attentive and careful dog walker.
“Rita was great! She came by for 4 days to feed my cat, clean her litter, and play with her. During these drop in visits she sent my photos and I could see that she was taking great care of my cat. She was super accommodating before. She came by for a meet and greet first, then she even came by to pick up my key as I forgot to make one for her ahead of time. I'll definitely rebook the next time I go on vacation!”
“Montgomery’s experience with animals was so appreciated when she spent time with our two dogs. Both are giant breeds and have been rescued. With one, we are working on anxiety and meeting people. So, Montgomery’s speciality behavioural training with dogs was wonderful to know about and see in action when she met and spent time with both dogs. We were impressed with her attention to detail and questions asked. The most important aspect was how comfortable and easily our dogs adapted to her and paid attention to her. Thank you so much. We are looking forward to having Montgomery take care of our dogs again.”

“Rufus was very pleased with Sophia and requested her as his executive assistant next time I'm out of town. Sophia sent me photos and videos every day. And Rufus was cared for both physically and emotionally. Please note that Rufus is a special needs cat and that Sophia was required to give him medication as well as food and water.”
About: I am a former zookeeper and I have a couple of years experience in veternary care. I’ve had animals of all kinds my entire life. I live with my husband and we both love spending time with animals. I work for the film industry and would love to pet sit your pet while I’m in between jobs. Productions have slowed down a lot over the past few years, so I have time currently. I have a larger fenced in yard that can actually be divided into 2 separate yards. Pets are allowed on our furniture and encouraged to sleep in the bedroom with us at night.
“August did a wonderful job caring for our girls again! They got lots of love while we were gone, which makes it easier to travel knowing they are in good hands.”

About: After having three dogs for many years, I am an expert at walking more than one--with expandable leashes, it's like flying three kites at once! In addition to long (or short) walks, I also like snuggling with pups on the couch. I currently have one 20-pound pup who gets along with almost all other dogs and loves having guests. For boarding and daycare, a meet and greet is a must. I have a very flexible work schedule and I mostly work from my home. I love taking frequent walks and petting dogs throughout the workday. I do not have a yard but like taking walks at all times of day, so your pup can still get plenty of exercise. I am familiar with senior dog care and am comfortable giving pills, following special diets, etc.
“She did amazing with our boys. Koda (the brown one) is diabetic and had a hard time recognizing her. She did great calming him and his brother down and administering insulin. Definitely going to book again!”

About: I have been around dogs my whole life. I have had two registered therapy dogs and have house sat for numerous families. I love all dogs and just want them to be cared for whi families enjoy their time away I’m retired so I have an open schedule and am free for days or weeks depending on your needs. I can housework or host. Just let me know anytime I have a gated yard as well as doggie door access and don’t really crate animals. I let them run free in the house unless otherwise specified
“Myrka is so great! She’s very responsive and leaves great details about each interaction. She’s very professional and my pup enjoys her! I have used her multiples times and would highly recommend her💕”

About: As a proud pet mom, I completely understand the trust it takes to leave your baby in the care of another. I offer flexible walks, drop in visits and occasional boarding. Growing up with animals, I’ve taken care of various friends/family members pets and have tons of experience in the pet sitting world. I am currently a student, working part time, and have a schedule that allows me to provide flexible drop in visits & walks when needed! As a vet assistant, animal lover and pet sitter your pets comfort and safety is my top priority, whether it’s a walk or drop in visit, you’ll be sure to receive plenty of pictures & updates along the way!
About: Owned animals my whole life until recently and enjoy loving everyone else's pets until I'm ready to have my own again. Family, friends and friends of friends can always count on and trust me with their furry baby and homes. They would comfort me as much as I would comfort them. I'm patient, kind, and always follow instructions and will communicate if wanted or needed. Thank you for trusting me with your furry children! 🙂 I am currently work part time from 11am -5 pm and go to school part time. I like to spend my summers with animals. Also, a walking companion? That's a sweet deal. I have overnight sat with cats and dogs or even both. Often times if I don't stay overnight I still spend some extra time walking, playing or cuddling with your animals so they don't get lonely or cooped up. I like to follow instructions so if they have a certain routine they don't get thrown off too much. I honestly would be open to anything you need.
“Lilly is fantastic! She has come to our home multiple times over the past few months to take care of our husky / pit mix. Our dog loves her and I love feeling confident that Lilly has got things under control! She makes sure to send me updates and cute pictures and is perfectly communicative. I couldn’t recommend her services enough!”
