“Nancy was a wonderful host for our sweet Mac! Nancy provided great communication and was flexible with a last minute timing change. We will absolutely utilize Nancy’s services next time we are in the area!”

“Lynne is a wonderful and caring dog sitter. Our Older dog Layla enjoyed staying with Lynne for three days. Plenty of space inside and outside. Lynne sends daily updates and photos. Thank you, Lynne. Look forward to seeing you again in the near future.”

Mary L.

“Joseph was great with our pups. He helped us out last minute when we were in a mind and was very responsive. The pups had so much fun running around and making friends! We would love to have him watch them again!”

Emma C.

“Lizzie was friendly, mindful of my cats' experience, and easy to communicate with. I would completely recommend her; I'll contact her first if I need my cats watched again. I appreciated her updates and photos throughout the day. My cats can be a bit scared when they are in a new place, but Lizzie gave them space to find their spots to chill while they wondered why the heck they were in a new place without me. She cared for them exactly as I would hope when my little ladies are with someone they are unfamiliar with.”

About: I’ve always loved animals, often more than people if I’m honest haha. I will love your babies like they are my own! Crate trained or not crate trained are welcome. They won’t be spending much time, if any, in it unless that’s part of the requested care. I lost both my rescues, the most recent almost 2 years ago. It’s an indescribable loss. My heart isn’t ready to own another animal yet, but I truly have so much love to give them. I’m the type that let my dogs on any and all furniture, celebrated birthdays, and went on special trips and outings I know they would love! I’ve always owned animals, specifically dogs, my entire life. I believe they are the purest form of love. I’ve watched animals for friends and family, but my senior dog made it difficult towards the end of his life to have any other animals around. I live in a private community with 2 grassy dog parks inside it. While I have your baby, please feel free to connect anytime you want an update or reassurance that they are safe and sound! I work at a spa part time, and also from home. I have plenty of walk and spoil time! I’m not away at work longer than 5 hours at a time a few days a week. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone. I want them, and you, to feel safe and relaxed 😌 I’m a sucker for animals. I’m sure your pet will figure that out in the first 5 minutes haha. I wouldn’t have it any other way.

“Adrienne was great! She came in last minute during a holiday stay as our regular place was booked up. She took great care of our dog Jade, who really enjoyed her backyard and the company of the other two dogs. We were relieved to have found someone that takes good care of Jade and hope to book her again soon!”

Merle W.

“Rene provided the best care for our dog I could imagine. She clearly loves and understands animals and is able to flow with what I imagine are differences between animals. Our dog was cared for and not stressed when we picked him up. I was greatly impressed and would advocate her to any of my friends”

About: Need someone reliable to watch your babies while you're gone? I'm your gal! Feeding, medications, or whatever you need are no problem. I have experience caring for a wide variety of critters. Before moving to my dream home on the coast, I had a family hobby farm and ran a successful horse boarding business. I'm hard working, reliable and compassionate. I have a flexible schedule so booking me is a breeze. You can leave your cats, dogs, guinea pigs, parrots or even mini pigs in my care with confidence!

“Blake was good with our 3 cats and did well with all of our instructions. He gave my cats space to be themselves and interact as much or as little as they wanted. Would recommend.”

Christina P.

About: I've always had dogs and/or cats in my life, from babies to them aging into seniors. I enjoy all stages. I currently have two dogs, a Labrador and a Westie. I dog sat 2 German Shepards and a mix in my home until recently. I enjoy giving lots of love to cats and dogs, young or old. I'm experienced giving medications as well. I do own my own business which is closed Mondays, and most Tuesdays and Thursdays. I'm available most mornings, some afternoons, and evenings. If I commit to taking care of your animals then I will be there. I will keep the pets routine to reduce stress. Meeting with the clients prior to my visit to learn the routines is important to me.

She did great - making us and Thor feel comfortable leaving him with her. I’d gladly recommend Wendy to anybody local or visiting the area to watch your pup!”
