“The sitter family is kind and can tell the family loves dogs. Renee answers very quickly to Rover availability and texts! They let our pups float in their pool and roam in fenced backyard, which is so good for our huskys. Safe environment for them! We would recommend them and use again ❤️”
About: I’d say what really sets me apart is how much I genuinely care about the pets I’m watching. I don’t just “check in” on them I try to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owner is away. I take time to learn their personality, routines, and little habits so I can care for them in a way that feels familiar to them. I have experience with both young and senior pets. With puppies, I’m patient and consistent with things like potty training, basic commands, and building good habits. With older pets, I understand they may need a slower pace, extra attention, or help with things like medication and sticking to a routine. I’m also big on communication I like to send updates and pictures so you know your pet is doing well. Overall, I just treat every pet like they’re my own and make sure they feel as happy and stress free as possible. I currently live with my partner and my puppy all i do at home is do online school and take care of my puppy all day! I have a fenced backyard a pet safe house with pet gates as well lots of toys and food of course! I love caring for pets i am studying to become a Vet tech

“Five stars for Alicia! She was wonderful with my cat! I contacted her last minute and she was quick to answer. I was able to go on my trip without worrying as she was constantly keeping me updated with messages/pictures. I am thankful to Alicia as she was patient, kind and sweet to my cat (he gets nervous when a new person comes around) but she was able to get him to be comfortable around her. As well, Alicia kept my apartment safe and tidy while being away on my trip. I will definitely reach out to her next time I need to leave my fur baby at home.”

About: I've been raising dogs since I was a teenager. I've literally raised them from birth, I've got experience breeding dogs and have helped them during the birth process. I just recently became a cat owner so I don't have very much experience with them but am learning new things all the time about them. I'm not the grooming type so if you want nails clipped or trimming done I suggest seeking someone else for that. I'm okay with giving them baths but that's about the extent of it. I've walked up to 3 dogs at once so I'm efficient in walking dogs. As shown in my headline I'm a big animal lover, they're my weakness, kryptonite, Achilles heel. I'm more emotional over their deaths than humans. My availability varies due to having a part time job and having animals of my own to care for but I'm capable of juggling all that I make sure my pets always have food & water, I also make sure they go outside to relieve themselves and just to get some exercise

About: I was gifted my first dog on Christmas when I was 4 years old and learned to care and love him all his life. I’ll always remember my dog Chocolate as the best Christmas ever that also was the best gift I’ve ever received. He taught me to appreciate and love animals and to care for them accordingly. I cared for a family members pregnant dog and helped her give birth to her 6 puppies and care for them for the diary 3 weeks of there lives. It was truly an experience that I learned a lot from and made me a better care giver. Pet care and having routines are very important as a caregiver.

Currently I have a lot of availability as a current college grad. I’m looking into pet care because it gives me the opportunity to do what I love, care for pets.

About: I have four pets of my own, three dogs and one cat! I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 15, from dog sitting overnight or just during the day. My parents coworkers always relied on me to stay with their dogs, feed them, and play with them. I have time available during the week and weekend to do what I enjoy doing, and that is taking care of animals. I love being energetic and provide the care animals need. I have a huge backyard to keep my dogs entertained. I also have plenty of toys my dogs don’t use because they are extremely picky. I follow the specific directions my clients direct me to. It varies between each client but I feed them as many times they tell me, make sure they have their certain blanket next to them when they sleep. Leave the light on because they are scared of the dark. Give them certain treats after they use the bathroom or do tricks. Take them on a walk with the correct harnesses, clean up after them etc.

“The sitter family is kind and can tell the family loves dogs. Renee answers very quickly to Rover availability and texts! They let our pups float in their pool and roam in fenced backyard, which is so good for our huskys. Safe environment for them! We would recommend them and use again ❤️”
About: I’d say what really sets me apart is how much I genuinely care about the pets I’m watching. I don’t just “check in” on them I try to make them feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owner is away. I take time to learn their personality, routines, and little habits so I can care for them in a way that feels familiar to them. I have experience with both young and senior pets. With puppies, I’m patient and consistent with things like potty training, basic commands, and building good habits. With older pets, I understand they may need a slower pace, extra attention, or help with things like medication and sticking to a routine. I’m also big on communication I like to send updates and pictures so you know your pet is doing well. Overall, I just treat every pet like they’re my own and make sure they feel as happy and stress free as possible. I currently live with my partner and my puppy all i do at home is do online school and take care of my puppy all day! I have a fenced backyard a pet safe house with pet gates as well lots of toys and food of course! I love caring for pets i am studying to become a Vet tech

“Let me begin by saying how nervous I was about leaving our little Maltese mix dog for a weekend with a new dog sitter. This was her first time staying with anyone other than family. Jill & Liz quickly put my concerns at ease. They allowed me to take Ivory to visit their home prior to scheduling her stay. Their back yard has a huge resort like atmosphere for pets. Ivory quickly sniffed around the area and felt comfortable right away. I scheduled her stay without hesitation for the entire weekend. Once I dropped Ivory off for her stay, I started to receive updates right away. I received pictures and videos throughout the weekend. This really help put any anxieties to rest. Ivory enjoyed a spa day with the ladies. She also had a dress up day and I able to see it all from the pictures I received. Since we were out of town for Labor Day Weekend, and I felt so comfortable with Ivory being in such good hands, Jill and Liz were able to accommodate us by keeping her extra day! I appreciate their flexibility, especially since it was last minute decision to leave her an additional day. When we picked up Ivory, she looked so very happy! She was wearing pink butterfly wings, a super cute bandanna, and they even gave her little hair clips and her own brush! The ladies gave me with a framed picture of Ivory and a her paw print. I HIGHLY recommend their dog care services to anyone looking for Fun, Kind and VERY caring dog sitters. Ivory will certainly be back for any future dog care needs. Thank you Jill & Liz!”
