“Elizabeth took such great care of Percy while we were gone. We got lots of updates and great pictures. He had such a good time, we think he’s missing all of the space and puppy playmates. He came home happy and healthy.”
About: I have always been “dog” person. I got my first dog when I was 5 and have had multiple dogs since. I was a dog walker for neighbors and friends during adolescence and my teen years. I will make sure your dog is well taken care of! I am currently of of work for the summer because I work for the school district. I have a lot of extra free time to occupy. I have a huge yard and a crate if needed! I also have an 11 year old who loves dogs and would love to interact with some new, friendly puppers.
“Dave and Daniel were wonderful with our Pomeranian Skyla. She’s animated and spirited, some might say a strong personality. She often, perhaps too often, wants her own way, but apparently Dave and Daniel were able to deal with this, and all parties seemed to have a great experience. What we do know for sure is that our little girl came home healthy and happy. What more can you ask for? We couldn’t be more pleased. We will definitely be bringing her back to her home away from home.”
About: I live on a small sheep farm. Dogs will be on long leash outdoors, but lots of room for walks multiple times a day. My dog is very good with other dogs. I work from home most of the time so they will get lots of attention. I work from home, so multiple daily walks and couch cuddles are a typical day with me. I do not leave more than 4-6 hours at a time. I have a fully fenced yard, but since I have livestock, I keep dogs on a long lead so they can explore but also be safe.
“Always wonderful with my shy baby and my reactive baby. My dogs are always happy and relaxed when I pick them up, honestly I think they would stay with Julie forever if they could! I’ve been going to her for a year and still go to her despite moving up to the Portland area!”
“Gemma and her family were so sweet, and took the best care of Rusty. She was kind enough to provide updates while we were away, and he seemed to genuinely enjoy his time there. Highly recommend!”
“Another great stay! Our 9-month old golden retriever puppy developed so much confidence while staying with Jade. (He is generally a little nervous meeting new dogs.) But after an overnight stay at Jade’s house he walked right up to a new dog, wagged his tail, and said hello! We highly recommend Jade and her services. Excellent communication and happy dogs!”
“She took wonderful care of my dog, who can sometimes be a bit of a challenge, and handled her with patience and kindness. I received many photos showing my dog happy, comfortable, and enjoying time with her loving family, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear my dog was being treated like part of the family, not just being watched. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and attentive to care for their pet.”
“My dog had so much fun with Shelby. He has a lot of energy and she managed to tire him out every day. She communicated well and sent lots of great pictures. We got delayed on our way back and she held on to him for longer than planned. I will definitely book with her in the future when I have the need.”
“Tawny was great! Her and Dan were very communicative and kept us posted throughout the stay. Our pup seemed to have a great time and fell asleep immediately after we took her home—always a plus! We will definitely book Tawny again.”
“Riley was great and my fur baby had a great time playing with her pups. She sent me pictures and updates on how my fur baby was doing. If I end up back in the area and needing dog care again I will be contacting her.”
“Tamra kept my large GSD in her home for a week and took great care of him! He’s a sweet guy but set in his ways so one never knows how he will respond to a new situation…but it was obvious immediately that he felt comfortable with her and was well cared for: long walks, play dates with dog friends, lots of social interaction. I would 100% recommend Tamra!”
“Diana was exceptional!! Our dog Hazel is quite shy around other dogs and was handled with such love and care! She was able to safely socialize, be cared for, AND we got daily photos and videos of her while we were away. Diana is such a joy to work with, she truly loves what she does, and I can't recommend her enough!!”
About: I’ve owned and fostered both dogs and cats my entire life. I understand how stressful it can be finding someone to watch your pet when you travel- I’d love to help ease some of that. I’m comfortable administering medications and navigating the different needs of your pets. I’m currently working part time from home. I have a fully fenced in backyard and I’m home more than I’m not. I’m also training for a marathon so if you have a dog that enjoys longer walks or short runs I’d be happy to take them out for those! My yard is fully fenced and my home is kept clean. I can crate your dog or give them a separate space if that’s easier. I will follow your lead to make your dog or cat as comfortable as possible.
“Madison took great care of Zeus and sent us fun photo updates frequently. She was very accommodating, communicative and flexible and we look forward to having her watch Zeus again during our next trip. Highly recommended!”
“Stephen watched our dog, Oliver, for us over a long weekend. He and his wife, Connie, were great and Ollie was very happy with them. He was definitely spoiled! We received several photos from Stephen while we were away, which is always nice to see. It was so reassuring to know that he was so well taken care of. We have already booked Stephen and Connie again for our next, longer trip!”

“Shawnee did an amazing job taking care of my cats , they both were comfortable with her right away. She went out of her way to check on a problem we had with our automatic feeder, thankful for that. We received photos daily and updates on our cats. I’ll definitely book her again when we need someone to watch over our cats.”
“Tamra was great with my kitty who is not very social. I was nervous that Punkin would be afraid and hide while I was away, but she took to Tamra and her home right away. I received a picture text within 5 mins of leaving her all snuggled and settled in! Tamra sent me pictures of Punkin throughout her 4 day, 3 night stay which put me at ease. I would definitely use here again.”
About: I've had cats throughout my childhood and adult life, and I've lived with cats more often than not. What I love about cats is how varying their personalities are, and they are so unique in that sense because you often times cannot tell what they're going to be like as an adult when they're a kitten. If I had it my way, I'd be sleeping with cats in my bed every night.
“Had another great overnight visit with Alyssa. She takes wonderful care of our cat Mocha and leaves our house clean and tidy. We’ll definitely continue to use Alyssa in the future!”
“Astrid has a special gift of knowing what your critters are up to, what makes them happy, and how to meet them where they are. You’ll see when Astrid hits it off with your pets.”
“Alivia was great with our two golden retrievers! She did drop ins for us during the day while we were working. She brought our dogs toys and treats. Phoebe and Winston give this rover sitter a A++! We will definitely use Alivia in the future!”
“Erin was so helpful and exactly what my cat, Jared needed for a pet sitter! Erin’s attention to my pet’s needs and love for animals really shows! 100% will book Erin again, and I recommend Erin to anyone needing a pet sitter!……unless it conflicts with my bookings, ha ha. 😺”
“Trevor was so good with our animals! We will be hiring him again. He is great at communicating and did a great job with all the pet care needs we require. Definitely recommend him!”
About: I grew up surrounded by kittens and cats! My grandma and mom were crazy cat ladies lol. I have a Siamese cat named Mochi! I rescued him as a kitten. He was found in a trash can covered in fleas, worms, and could barely keep his eyes open from excessive mucus. I spent every 5 minutes cleaning his eyes, treated his fleas/worms, showed him love, and trained him. He’s now an indoor kitty and he will be loved for the rest of his life! He’s my little cuddle buddy💛 I’m a very empathetic, responsible, and active person! I’m available to play and always down for some cuddles from some fur babies :)
About: I have taken care of animals since I was a kid. I have experience with a wide range of dogs. Ranging from small dogs to large such as German Shepards and Great Danes all the way to chihuahuas. I take pride in having the patience in getting to know each animal and their needs. I have a calming caring demeanor and work hard to build trust with each animal. I have a lot of experience walking dogs, feeding, house sitting cats and dogs and am a go to for friends and family. I am currently working part time and would love to fill my schedule caring for your pets! After losing my lab a few years ago, I often seek opportunities to build connections with animals of all sizes and ages. Being an experienced dog sitter, I plan to show you and your pets the upmost respect. I have pet sat and walked a wide variety of dogs in a variety of homes and can insure you that your pet and your home are safe with me.

“Bruno and Cooper just had the most amazing day at Elizabeth’s. We have been looking for our new sitter after ours for the past ten years decided to retire from dog sitting/daycare. Elizabeth kept me informed all day through picture updates of our boys having a great time. Our dogs came home happy and tired. Everything we could ask for after a day of playing. Thank you Elizabeth. So happy we found you.”

“Shelby is great! Loki enjoyed spending time with her and her sweet furbaby Winston. Shelby's an excellent communicator and matched Loki's energy level perfectly. She sent him home with a little note and goody bag, which was just so thoughtful! We are looking forward to our next visit. Thank you so much, Shelby!”
“Hailey and her family were so wonderful to our Kai. They watched him while we went hiking in Silver Falls. She sent pics and updates so we knew Kai was in excellent hands. Kai was happy and relaxed when we picked him up.”
“Candace is a wonderful dog mom!! From the moment we met I knew Maizie would be in good hands. Candace is warm and nurturing but also aware of the mischief puppies can get into. She sent me lots of photos throughout the day and kept me updated on Maizie’s progress. Maizie had fun meeting the other animals around the farm. We are hoping to leave her for a longer time next time. I know Maizie is looking forward to seeing Candace-mom and her new big brother playmate, Wilbur again. She had a great time!”
“Tess was available with short notice. She was able to wrangle my energetic dogs through their first babysitting experience. They were with her for a couple of hours and were extremely comfortable. Thanks, Tess!”
About: I have been around dogs and cats since before I could walk! I started pet sitting for my neighbors when I was a kid and have spent most of my life helping out my friends and family with their pets. I am a huge animal lover and also very active! I often pet sit for my friends and love to take their dogs on walks and runs. I live in Albany with my cat, Bill, and work from home a lot so I have lots of availability and would love some more dog time in my life! I work from home four days a week (wednesday’s i am in office) so i have a lot of availability to spend time with your dog! I am also an active runner and walker, so I can get your pup outside and get out energy if that’s what they need, or we can cuddle up inside and play or hang out :) I live in a spacious two-bedroom apartment with lots of grassy areas and walking paths around. I do have a cat, he gets along well with dogs, but your pup would need to be okay with cats! I have a very gentle approach to dogs and respecting their boundaries is so important to me. Depending on what you prefer for your dog, they are free to roam my apartment and be on furniture, unless you prefer them not to be! I have some experience training so if you’re in the middle of building habits, i will adhere to those practices :)
“Bridget had a great time with Novely. Novely was very kind and caring with Bridget. With the photos and video Novely sent I could see that Bridget ran and played in the yard with Novely’s dog and had a fun day.”
“Super grateful for Tianna to watch my pup last minute. Lliira warmed up to her immediately. Tianna kept track of her potties and treats. Her home was clean and she’s got a decently sized backyard so Lliira had a chance to explore and be socialized with her own dogs. Very satisfied and will be using her again in the future. Thank you so much!”

“Danielle was wonderful with our shy, anxious rescue. She communicated well and asked plenty of great questions, was kind and patient, and has a calm demeanor. We weren't able to do a meet and greet in advance since I was traveling through, which made it even more impressive that my pup warmed up to her right away and relaxed so quickly. Responsible, professional service. Highly recommend!”
“Diana D. was so accommodating to take my little Harley at such short notice. When I came back to pick him up she shared with me some simple ways to help him feel more confident. Diana sent pictures throughout the day as well, which helped me get the a long meeting. Thank you again Diana.”
“Tawny was absolutely amazing with my 10 month old puppy, Stella - truly treated her as if she was her own. Additionally, she was always incredibly flexible with hours, sent awesome update photos throughout the day, and made the whole process a delight. I would highly recommend!”

About: I have lifelong experience caring for animals of all kinds! I grew up on a farm, where caring for horses, livestock, and other animals was simply part of everyday life. Today, I continue that passion by fostering dogs, cats, puppies, and kittens through my local humane society, giving animals a safe, loving place to grow and thrive until they find their forever homes. I also have experience caring for small animals such as guinea pigs and rabbits, so whether your family includes four hooves, four paws, or tiny whiskers, they'll be in capable hands. As a teacher, I'm patient, dependable, and attentive to routines and individual needs, and I know every animal has its own personality. Whether your pet is energetic, shy, senior, or needs a little extra care, I'll treat them like they're part of my own family and keep you updated with plenty of photos and messages so you can relax while you're away. My schedule is very flexible, allowing me to give pets plenty of attention throughout the day. Whether it's walks, playtime, feeding, medication, or simply keeping them company, I enjoy making animal care a natural part of my daily routine and ensuring each pet feels safe, loved, and comfortable. Your pet's safety and comfort are always my top priorities.

You can also expect regular updates and photos, so you'll always know your pet is happy and well cared for while you're away.
About: What sets me apart is the combination of experience, intuition, and calm presence I bring to every animal I care for. I’ve trained my own husky from puppyhood and lived with cats my whole life, so I understand a wide range of behaviors and needs. I don’t rush animals—I read their cues, build trust, and adjust to their comfort level. Whether it’s a long walk or quiet company, your pet will get thoughtful, grounded care that helps them feel safe and understood. Caring for animals is already part of my everyday life. My own husky keeps me on a steady rhythm of walks, play, and feeding, so adding more pets into that flow feels natural. I plan my day around their needs—morning exercise, midday check-ins, and relaxed evening wind-downs—so your pet’s routine will fit smoothly into mine. I care for pets in their own home the same way I care for mine—with respect, consistency, and calm energy. I follow your instructions closely to keep their routine familiar and stress-free. That means keeping feeding times, walks, and play sessions on schedule, giving plenty of attention, and leaving your space as neat as I found it. My goal is for your pets to feel safe and relaxed until you’re home again.

About: Hi, I’m Kira! I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember, and I’ve always had a bit of a knack for making friends with them. 😂 I have experience caring for dogs and cats of all sizes, along with birds, chickens, chinchillas, turtles, frogs, fish, and lizards. Basically, if it has four legs, feathers, scales, or a tail, there’s a pretty good chance I’ve cared for one! I currently have an 11-year-old Husky who is my world, and I’ve always been the go-to person for friends and family when they need someone they trust with their pets. I understand that every pet has their own personality, routine, and needs. Whether your dog needs a walk and some exercise, a potty break, playtime, or simply some extra love and attention, I’ll treat them like they’re my own. My goal is to make every visit safe, comfortable, and enjoyable while giving you peace of mind knowing your furry family member is in caring hands. ❤️🐾 Pet care is my main focus, which allows me to offer a flexible schedule and give each pet the personalized, one-on-one care they deserve. I understand how important it is to feel comfortable trusting someone with your furry family member, and I take that responsibility seriously. I believe the best care starts with getting to know each pet as an individual — because they all have their own little personalities! When caring for pets in their home, I treat their space and routines with the same respect and care I would expect in my own home. I follow your instructions carefully, keep safety a priority, and make sure your pets receive the care, companionship, and affection they deserve while you’re away. I’m also fully insured, giving you added peace of mind while your pets are in my care. ❤️
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 16 whenever my family or friends go out of town I’m always the go to person for pet sitting following each direction from feeding bathing to night time. I also send out updates so no worry’s. I am currently available Monday through Sunday, offering flexible scheduling for walks, drop-ins, and overnight care, including weekends, holidays, and last-minute requests when needed , but if plans change please let me know 2 or 3 days before thank you When caring for pets, their safety is always my top priority. I make sure doors, gates, and fences are secure before letting pets outside, keep harmful foods and household items out of reach, and closely monitor their behavior for any signs of stress or illness. I follow each pet’s routine and the owner’s instructions carefully, provide plenty of supervision, and create a calm, safe environment where every pet feels comfortable, loved, and well cared for.
About: I've been an animal lover as long as I can remember. When I was 9 years old, my Dad got me my first Golden Retriever for Valentine's Day 1998. Her name was Star. I wanted a Golden because I fell in love with Shadow from "Homeward Bound". Star was my best friend, and we trained together in Canine Good Citizenry and agility. She could jump through hula hoops, over my arm, and she knew all sorts of tricks. I also love horses and used to spend summers and spring breaks on my cousin's farm in Apopka, Florida where she was the Barn Manager for a gal who rode in the Irish Olympics for the Equestrian Team. I had my own horse when I was younger, but we sadly had to sell her when my mother passed away when I was 9 years old. I've had dogs and cats off and on my entire life, but sadly, I just recently moved to Oregon and do not have any pets of my own right now for a few reasons: The first is that I'm working diligently to get established in Oregon and currently have a Mon-Thursday schedule with the City of Salem that requires me to be away from home for over 10 hours a day. Second, my roommate has a sick and aging cat who is not doing well, and we do not want to stress him out by adding pets to the house right now. Hopefully, my roommate will be able to reconsider when things change, but for now, Bok Choy (and his comfort) is our main priority at my house. Third, I'm hoping to move my Dad out to Oregon within the next 3 years, but for now, he is living alone as a retiree in Georgia, where I grew up. He is very attached to our dog Hank, and even though I'm definitely Hank's favorite person, I couldn't stand the thought of separating those two because I felt like my Dad needs Hank more than I do as Hank is his reason to get up in the morning! I miss Hank more than words can express, but I think we made the right call because Hank does not like being alone, and Dad can accommodate this as he is retired whereas I am in the main career years. I have previous dog sitting experience, but sadly, my identity was hacked, and I lost all of my photos on my Facebook account and lost many of my contacts through my old email address that I lost access to. I have also done amateur dog training and hope to get a professional certification in dog training within the next 12 months. I am happy to house sit during my work week if you only have cats that need tending after office hours. I won't be accepting house sitting for dogs unless there is an understanding of my work schedule and the dog has access to a doggy door and a yard or puppy pads are used during the day. I would highly recommend finding a sitter who can be with your dog during the business day instead of requesting me if you have dogs and need assistance during my work week (Mon-Thurs). This is a Side Hustle for me, but it also the more meaningful of my jobs because I love animals more than anything else in this world, and being around them is good for my mental health. I currently work Monday-Thursday until 4:30PM so it will be difficult for me to provide overnight dog sitting until Thursday after 5 PM unless your dog has access to a doggy door or puppy pads. I would highly recommend finding a sitter who does this full time if you need assistance during business hours Monday-Thursday. When I am at your house, your pet is my priority. If they need exercise or stimulation, we will make that happen. I will almost feel guilty for getting paid for it because it will literally be my pleasure. I will ask you to leave detailed instructions that will make my life easier and expect you to extend trust to me to do my job well. I understand it is difficult and that trust is earned and not freely given, but we need to have a clear discussion before you leave about what your expectations are so I can decide If I can meet those in a way that will not cause me undue anxiety. If you need someone after 5PM Mon-Thursday or anytime on the weekends, I am your sitter!

“We just finished our first set of walks with Riley and our dog Sahdow is already in love. Knowing he’s availabile for midday walks makes me feel so much better about scheduling out of town travel.”
About: I have grown up being surrounded by dogs! My dad always had dogs in our home. I raised my pitbull/lab mixed breed dog Nala from when I was the age of Ten until she passed away when I was 21 years old. She taught me a lot about being a pet owner as well as a person! She was my best friend🤍 I am a very active, responsible, and empathetic person! I enjoy being outdoors going on long walks, hikes, and runs! I’m always down for a furry friend to tag along :) My current work schedule is 6am to 6pm Sunday through Tuesday :) I am available throughout the week on my days off for some pet care! I am respectful of other spaces! I like to stay occupied and am willing to go on adventures with your fur baby! I am full of love to give for animals. My full time job is caregiving so I’m the kind of person to place others needs before my own, but I do prioritize my health so I’m always in tip top shape for whoever/whatever needs my attention!
About: I've taken care of pets, both my own fur babies and those of loved ones, my whole life! Whether it's walking your puppy during a long work day or making sure that your senior cat gets their medication on time when you're out of town, whether it's playing with your teacup Chihuahua or your giant mastiff mix, I am well versed in pet care and understand that while life may make demands on our time, that our furry friends still deserve uncompromised love and attention. I am currently not working and am currently seeking part time employment, so my schedule is fully open! I can help make sure that your pets get what they need at the times that work best for your routines. I have considerable experience working with and being around cats and dogs of all sizes, ages, temperaments, and care needs! Whether it's a little dog with a big personality, a gentle giant dog, a lazy cat, or an active kitten, you can rely on me to stay calm and steady to provide the best possible care for your animals and to meet them where they're at in terms of need for engagement and activity.
“Whitney is the absolute best!! After just 2 days of walking Mila, Mila would wait by door around the time she knows she’s coming and wait for her and she gets so excited when she hears her car pull up. She’s amazing with her so patient and sweet will definitely recommend her!!”
About: I’ve spent over 10 years caring for pets in their own homes for friends, family, and neighbors. As a pet owner myself—a Great Dane and a cat—I treat every animal like my own. I have plenty of flexibility and a lot of open availability in my schedule at the moment. I can make most any dates/times work. I’m available weekdays and weekends. When caring for pets in their own home, I focus on keeping everything as normal and comfortable as possible. I follow established routines for feeding, walks, playtime, and rest, and I pay close attention to each pet’s personality and needs. I offer gentle companionship, plenty of affection, and a calm presence, while also treating your home with care and respect so you can feel at ease while you’re away.

Every service is personalized to meet your pet’s specific needs, and I’ll keep you updated with a detailed report after each visit. Communication is essential, so please feel free to reach out with any questions as we plan the perfect care for your pet. I'm happy to help, and I look forward to providing you and your pet with well deserved exceptional care. Warm regards, Alivia (Lu) 🐾 I am fortunate enough to be an in-home aid for my mother, along side my two sisters, making my schedule extremely flexible. I am here to work around the Clients schedule, not my own. Each service is personalized and catered to your pets needs, wants and boundaries. Pets will be returned to the care of their owner & given a summary of services provided, behavior while being serviced & any other necessary information regarding your pets experience. It is important to me to keep owners as involved & updated as possible.
About: I have been to go to pet sitter in my neighborhood all of my life. I've dealt with one neighbor's dog in particular who is a difficult dog and requires medication. Pet care is always my number one priority because if someone was taking care of my dog, I would want the same level of care that I provide. I like to learn and also know the routine of the animal I'm watching to best fit their needs and learn or change when necessary.

“Elizabeth took such great care of Percy while we were gone. We got lots of updates and great pictures. He had such a good time, we think he’s missing all of the space and puppy playmates. He came home happy and healthy.”
About: I have always been “dog” person. I got my first dog when I was 5 and have had multiple dogs since. I was a dog walker for neighbors and friends during adolescence and my teen years. I will make sure your dog is well taken care of! I am currently of of work for the summer because I work for the school district. I have a lot of extra free time to occupy. I have a huge yard and a crate if needed! I also have an 11 year old who loves dogs and would love to interact with some new, friendly puppers.
“Another great stay! Our 9-month old golden retriever puppy developed so much confidence while staying with Jade. (He is generally a little nervous meeting new dogs.) But after an overnight stay at Jade’s house he walked right up to a new dog, wagged his tail, and said hello! We highly recommend Jade and her services. Excellent communication and happy dogs!”
About: I live on a small sheep farm. Dogs will be on long leash outdoors, but lots of room for walks multiple times a day. My dog is very good with other dogs. I work from home most of the time so they will get lots of attention. I work from home, so multiple daily walks and couch cuddles are a typical day with me. I do not leave more than 4-6 hours at a time. I have a fully fenced yard, but since I have livestock, I keep dogs on a long lead so they can explore but also be safe.
“My dog had so much fun with Shelby. He has a lot of energy and she managed to tire him out every day. She communicated well and sent lots of great pictures. We got delayed on our way back and she held on to him for longer than planned. I will definitely book with her in the future when I have the need.”
“She took wonderful care of my dog, who can sometimes be a bit of a challenge, and handled her with patience and kindness. I received many photos showing my dog happy, comfortable, and enjoying time with her loving family, which gave me so much peace of mind. It was clear my dog was being treated like part of the family, not just being watched. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for someone trustworthy, caring, and attentive to care for their pet.”
“Tawny was great! Her and Dan were very communicative and kept us posted throughout the stay. Our pup seemed to have a great time and fell asleep immediately after we took her home—always a plus! We will definitely book Tawny again.”
“Riley was great and my fur baby had a great time playing with her pups. She sent me pictures and updates on how my fur baby was doing. If I end up back in the area and needing dog care again I will be contacting her.”
“Tamra kept my large GSD in her home for a week and took great care of him! He’s a sweet guy but set in his ways so one never knows how he will respond to a new situation…but it was obvious immediately that he felt comfortable with her and was well cared for: long walks, play dates with dog friends, lots of social interaction. I would 100% recommend Tamra!”
About: I’ve owned and fostered both dogs and cats my entire life. I understand how stressful it can be finding someone to watch your pet when you travel- I’d love to help ease some of that. I’m comfortable administering medications and navigating the different needs of your pets. I’m currently working part time from home. I have a fully fenced in backyard and I’m home more than I’m not. I’m also training for a marathon so if you have a dog that enjoys longer walks or short runs I’d be happy to take them out for those! My yard is fully fenced and my home is kept clean. I can crate your dog or give them a separate space if that’s easier. I will follow your lead to make your dog or cat as comfortable as possible.
“Stephen watched our dog, Oliver, for us over a long weekend. He and his wife, Connie, were great and Ollie was very happy with them. He was definitely spoiled! We received several photos from Stephen while we were away, which is always nice to see. It was so reassuring to know that he was so well taken care of. We have already booked Stephen and Connie again for our next, longer trip!”
“Madison took great care of Zeus and sent us fun photo updates frequently. She was very accommodating, communicative and flexible and we look forward to having her watch Zeus again during our next trip. Highly recommended!”
“I left for ten days and this was only the second time I had left Stella with another family. It was such a great experience for her and me. Michael and I let the dogs meet ahead time and I felt very comfortable with both he and his dog. His entire family helped out and loved on Stella and it was a really positive experience. I would definitely use them again.”
“Catrina was great! She provided updates on how Shadow was doing each day and sent pictures. I appreciated how thoughtful she was in making the home environment safe for our dog who loves to chew up things left at his eye level. I would definitely book with her again.”
“Sandy and her husband were very welcoming to our dogs, and us! We did a meet and greet first and she introduced her dogs to ours one at a time, and all went well. So nice to not have dogs in a crate or kennel the whole time you are gone, and with Sandy they get to hang out and run around with her 3 Golden Retrievers, inside and safely outside, which is fenced. She sent us pictures while we were gone, of each dog sleeping on the couch. Very accommodating for pick-up and drop-off as well.”
“Kathrine is an AMAZING sitter! I went out of town for 5 days and left my pup with her at her home. I immediately felt comfortable leaving her there when I dropped her off. She sent pics, videos, and updated me on all things (eating, pooping, etc.). Her dog, Ophelia, was the sweetest companion and I could tell her and my dog were besties from the pics she sent! They went on multiple walks a day, and even a weekend adventure! I will definitely be using Kathrine again in the future!”
