“Even just through drop-ins, Sequoia has been an amazing sitter for my senior cat. Not only did she provide above-expectation care, she also took the time to ensure his safety during this disastrous winter storm. Will definitely be recommending her to others and scheduling again in the future!”

She was responsible and responsive, asked detailed questions, and checked in with us daily with a message and pictures. I highly recommend her for petsitting and we will be contacting her for future pet sitting needs.”

“Scharol was very willing to work with our schedule. My 2 fur babies seemed well taken care of when we picked them up. We are were from out of town and needed someone to watch our dogs while going to Mackinac island. All went well.”

“Thank you Kelly so much for taking care of our favourite. 4 walks is great for our outdoorsy dog who excels out of the house. My pup really liked her stay and we are glad we chose Kelly.”


“Elizabeth was excellent to work with coordinating our dog sitting appointment. I dropped my 3.5 year old Great Dane off around 10:00 AM and picked her up at 5:45 PM. Elizabeth sent me text and pictures throughout the day and her two dogs played and played with my big girl. They had mini pool time and inside pet relax time. My baby was exhausted when I picked her up. I can’t recommend Elizabeth enough!”

“Angelo & Pina were super friendly and kind people took good care of my baby on such short notice and kept me updated with pictures was good to know dog was in good care even took her for a walk would definitely recommend”

“Shawna understands dogs and how dog parents worry. Shawna (and her 3 boys) have a heart for all dogs. I dropped my Jasper off for the day, while we took the train ride. She sent pics and reassuring messages, even letting me know that I would lose phone service during ny excursion--but, not to worry "he is fine, enjoy your day” She is experienced and truly cares. If in the area, she is a great option for your dog!”

About: My love for animals is what made me want to watch pets. I have had pets my entire life & have been watching them for friends for years. I lost my dog Olive a year ago & this gives me my “ dog fix “. I am retired & have always wanted to be a dog sitter. I hope you will consider me. I work during the winter 4 days a week, but this has not been a problem for the animals I take care of now. I am very flexible. My yard is very large but not fenced in. I do have neighbors with dogs but they stay in their yards. I am also open to staying at your home.
About: I've grown up with dogs, cats, and various other animals in my family so I have lots of experience in caring for them. A family friend has told me I'm like a dog whisperer because most dogs are comfortable with me. I'm most comfortable with no more than 4 dogs at a time, whether they're small like a Dachshund or a Cardigan Welsh Corgi, medium-sized like a Brittany Spaniel or a Labrador, or large like a Newfoundland or Great Dane. I also am able to train dogs in simple commands such as stay, sit, lay down, and shake. And I'm willing to help potty train puppies and bathe dogs if needed. I do have experience with elderly dogs or sick dogs with many health conditions and medications. Either myself or my spouse is nearly always at home. I work a flexible job where I can stop at home during the day if needed. I currently have my own dog and cat. I am working on getting a fence but currently just a tie-out lead and a large dog house is what I have with lots of land to run.
