Allison is a phenomenal pet sitter! We have booked her multiple times and will continue selecting her when available. This past trip she even put the trash by the curb completely unprompted! She noticed it needed to happen and she got it done. She is trustworthy, reliable and our pets love her!!

She went above and beyond for me when I had car trouble and couldn’t be back the day that I had planned on coming back home! She was super flexible and very understanding. I genuinely appreciated it. I don’t know what I would have done without her. 10/10, 5 STARS, I would recommend! My animals all loved her and she was very thoughtful and communicative. 😊👏

About: I’ve helped take care of every animal you can think of! Having a big family gave me plenty of opportunities to learn and grow with different animals I attend college two days a week and work the night shift at my job! My day starts pretty early so I have a little too much free time and would love to spend it caring for animals! As long as the animal is provided with every basic essential it needs I will go above and beyond to tend to every need your pet has

Christy catered to a last-minute request for a couple of drop-ins while I was out of town for a couple of nights. I had already booked her for a longer stay in the future, but I’m glad I added this additional session so she could get familiar with my Blueberry and he could get used to her. Needless to say, he adapted very well. Christy communicated very proactively and sent pictures often. Very much appreciated care for my baby.

About: I hope to be different as I have experience’s with all types of furry friends. I hope to make your life and there life stress free. I have experience working in a vet setting with dogs and cats. So I can administer any type of medication as needed. Now I am working in a board and rescue environment for dogs. I’ve dealt with crazy dogs, old dogs, aggressive dogs and scared dogs. I can do grooming such as baths, nail trimming/filing, basic trim, and ear cleaning. I also can do positive based training to work on basics like sit, lay, and waiting at doors. Any treats used will be ran by the owner before using them. I’m currently working part time at a board and rescue. Most days I work one shift so I will have plenty of free time in the morning to feed or play with your furry friend first thing around 7-8am. Usually I will also stop by to let them out again and hang out with them before going to work around 11am. After work I can come by again to feed them dinner and/or just hang out with them and play around 6 pm. My cat whiskey eats in the morning before I leave for work. He also eats again when I get off of work at night. His litter box is cleaned at least once a day. My dog Roxy free feeds as she doesn’t over eat and maintains a healthy weight. We have a small fenced area to play fetch and potty in. Me and Roxy love to get out and hike no matter what the weather is. I am also trying to find someone that would allow us to work on her herding skills. When I’m in a clients home my goal will be to keep the dog on it’s regular schedule in hopes to make it better for them.

About: I’m a local college student with a super flexible schedule and exited attitude to help out whenever I can! I love animals and have been taking care of them since I was around 10. I have experienced house sitting and also watching pets from my own home. I currently don’t have pets of my own making it a great environment to offer my home up to help others. I look forward to creating new relationships with clients and their fur babies! My schedule is currently fully open with it being summer time and I’m looking to fill this time with new bookings! I am able to give my full attention to the pet and can adapt to their needs! I have a fenced in yard and live in a great neighborhood to walk in. I also do no have pets only own making it easier to watch your pet as well! I always want to put the pets needs first and make sure they are getting quality care!

About: I have always had a loving for animals, and there have been dogs in my home for as long as I can remember! I comfortably understand pet care needs and give plenty of attention! I am patient and respectful with pets and treat them like family. I am almost always available on weekends, along with anytime after 3:00 PM on week days. I’d also be happy to visit any early morning if that’s what your pet needs! I follow all care instructions closely and ensure all pets are treated with patience and respect. I am cautious of doors, leashes, gates, etc. I believe trust is formed through consistency in communication and reliability.

About: I have taken care of pets of friends and family members for many years and had pets as a kid. I now have my own golden retriever who loves to have other animals to play with. I am currently available to be home during the day on both weekends and weekdays to provide lots of play time and attention to your pet. I am a full time student but am currently on break. I have a very spacious house with plenty of room for the pets to run around and play. I have a membership at the local dog park to take them there to play as well. They will always have a buddy to play with as I have a one year old golden retriever who is very friendly to all.
