“Teresa did a great job with our two cats! We had a last minute schedule change due to a death in the family and Teresa was very understanding and worked with us on that. She sent detailed Rover cards each day with photos and overall was just awesome with communication. Previous sitters could never get pictures of our older cat and Teresa was able to get one everyday. We would definitely recommend her for watching over your fur babies!”
“Marissa was wonderful pet sitter. My cat is very shy but she was able to build trust with him. I was very pleased that my cat was in the care of someone so warm and responsive.”
“I love Michelle! She did an awesome job taking care of our cat. She responds pretty quick and always on time for drop in visits. We'll definitely have her again ❤️”
“What an absolutely amazing experience. My cat was care for, loved on, and I received so many wonderful pictures. I’m always nervous to leave her since she has separation anxiety but she was calm and happy when I got home like I was never gone! Will definitely be using them as my pet sitter from here on out!!”
“Reese and Melissa are very attentive and caring when it came to my puppy. They were very involved when getting to know Raven. It definitely gives me some peace of mind when I'm working and they are taking such good care of my girl. 10/10 recommend.”

About: We have 4 dogs, a longhair chihuahua who we rescued when he was young, a chowchow mix whom we rescued from the woods as a puppy, and 2 great white pyranese who are primarily outside as guardian dogs. We absolutely love pets! They are our babies and will treat yours the same way! Growing up, we have always had dogs in the household and I wouldn't see it any other way . I have dog sat for multiple families. They are always supervised when together and separated when we run an errand. I've never run into any issues - most of them love all of the socialization! It's so much fun!! I am a stay-at-home mom and will be home full-time taking care of your babies as well as mine! We have lots of love and snuggles to go around! I look forward to hearing from you soon! If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to me! Thanks so much for checking out my profile! We live on 15 acres and have chickens, guinea fowl, and pigs. We keep them separated from all of the dogs that come visit. Our backyard is now fenced so there's a fenced area for our guests to run around! We also have a lot of dog toys here, so please try to resist bringing toys for your fur babies, I will worry they will get lost! ** My hours are approximately 6am-9pm. If you need to pick up or drop off later/earlier than that, we can discuss.** *if you refer someone to me and it ends in a completed stay, you will receive 1 free night stay for one of your dogs* I'm home full time so we will mostly be here with your fur baby. If we do leave for a playground or errand it's for a short time. I have two dogs of my own for socialization and a crate or separate room if needed if there's a dog that needs a break.

Amanda C.
“I was so worried about leaving my dogs when I went on vacation. But then I was extremely fortunate to find Amanda. After our initial meeting I was extremely impressed by her professionalism, love and concern for the care of my pets. She is a gem and a true animal lover. She has experience fostering animals, so she is well aware of what it takes to care for pets with special needs and can adapt quickly to the wishes you have for the care of your pet. Amanda endured my list of instructions and made me feel at ease that my pets would be well taken care of and treated like a member of the family during their stay. I never had to worry about their well-being or safety and I received pictures of my pets while they were in her care to put my mind at ease. I can always rest easy when my pets are being cared for by Amanda and they are always so happy when I get there to pick them up. I plan to use Amanda every time I need a pet sitter. Top notch love and care provided.”
