Our dog was so happy when we got home after a long holiday weekend and we got picture updates while we were away. Ashley always does an amazing job for us!

About: I currently work at a veterinary hospital, where caring for animals is part of my daily routine. I have hands-on experience with feeding, administering basic care, monitoring behavior, and handling pets of all temperaments. I also have cats of my own, so I understand the importance of patience, comfort, and routine. I’m confident caring for both dogs and cats, including those that may need extra attention, and I always treat every pet like my own. I work Monday through Friday at a veterinary hospital, so I’m already actively caring for animals throughout the day. I’m available for pet care services in the evenings after work and fully available on weekends. My schedule allows me to provide consistent, reliable care while still giving your pet plenty of attention and time. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my top priorities. With my experience in a veterinary setting, I’m trained to recognize signs of stress, illness, or unusual behavior. I take time to learn each pet’s routine and needs to make them feel as comfortable as possible. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, I provide a calm, clean, and secure environment and follow all instructions closely.

Anh was amazing with Pico. She jumped in last minute and handled everything so thoughtfully - including some unexpected tummy issues and his occasional puppy chaos. She kept me fully updated the whole time and sent lots of great photos, which I really appreciated. It made such a difference being able to see how he was doing. Pico is used to being with me all the time, so social interaction is really important for him. Anh adjusted to Pico’s needs and routine and also made him part of hers - giving him so much extra love and attention. You can’t always guarantee that level of care when you’re away, and I’m so grateful I never had to worry. I would absolutely recommend Anh to anyone without hesitation!

I booked a 10 house-sitting stay with Mika and was overjoyed to see videos of my retriever mix so very happy and comfortable. I could tell my Mila loved the attention she got. My dog is 12yr old this coming July and I wanted someone with experience. Mika's vet assistant background was perfect as well as her history with rescues and special needs pets. My anxiety for such a long stay was quickly eased after the first photos and texts. Mika's upbeat attitude is refreshing. She's totally focused on Mila"s every need. I gladly recommend her. I will certainly book again. Deb

About: I have always grown up with pets since I was able to walk. Dogs are my favorite thing in life!! I recently had to send my dog to heaven and haven’t been quite ever to get over it. I still have his toy and often pet sit for family and friends to try and fill the void. This will give me just that!! I currently do brand ambassador work so I creat my own schedule, which is great. My availability is very flexible. I’m here if you need me!! I have a fenced in yard for small potty breaks but I enjoy going on walks!! Being out in the fresh air getting exercise is always best.

About: I have had plenty of pets growing up, including a dog, a cat, and a bunny rabbit. Through caring for them, I learned how to walk, feed, and provide daily attention to animals. I am also comfortable handling additional responsibilities such as giving medication, ensuring they get enough exercise and playtime, and paying close attention to their individual needs. I am very patient, responsible, and truly love spending time with pets. I’m available on weekends as well as during the week. Just let me know when you need me, and I’ll do my best to be there to help you and take great care of your pet! I have a sunroom and a nearby dog park for your pet to enjoy. I also have a backyard where your pet can spend time outdoors, and because the area is not fenced, I will always be outside supervising to make sure they stay safe and comfortable.
