Nancy was a purrfect caretaker for our two cats! Her communication was great and took wonderful care, especially for one of our cat's "issues". We were gone for 5 days and felt completely comfortable having her in our home to visit and care for our animals. We will be calling on her again if we need pet sitting services.

I have a very high maintenance cat (17, blind, won't eat, etc) and Mackenzie took such good care of her! She checked in twice a day and sent very detailed updates to let me know how Gracie was doing. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing the Gracie was safe and being well cared for by someone that really truly cared about Gracie's wellbeing. I'll definitely be rebooking with Mackenzie!!

About: Although I am only 19, I have had pets for as long as I can remember. My family and I have a total of 6 pets- 3 dogs and 3 cats! We have fostered and adopted our fair share of animals, all with different stories! One of our dogs is an amish labor rescue, one of my cats is blind, and another only has 3 legs!! While all of our pets now come from a different and difficult situation, it has been a reward and privilege to love and take care of them. I am familiar with hyper and untrained dogs as we have had 2 since they were puppies and they still are a bit crazy to this day! I am currently job searching so I can’t say what my availability will be like for the future but as for now I have no other commitments and am available whenever!! I am a very detail oriented person and realize that each animal has their own unique personality and routines. I am always open to learning about your fur babies and what they like or dislike. I love that each pet has their own quirks and I love being able to form relationships built on trust and respect!!

This was the second time that Swagata took care of Jojo. She's truly amazing with Cats!! She came for drop-in visit, she followed all the instructions and also spent some playtime with Jojo... I was so glad that she did... I will 100% recommend her if you're looking for a caring pet sitter...

We recently moved into the area and started using Lindsey to drop in with our dog, Lucy, when she needs a little extra attention. Lindsey provides updates and photos, which gives us total peace of mind. She clearly loves Lucy and the other pets she provides care for. Highly recommend her to anyone looking for a trustworthy and caring dog walker!!

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life, from the puppy years all the way up to saying goodbye. I have many years of experience in handing dogs and caring for them. Throughout the years I have dog sat neighbors and friends dogs. Leaving a family member behind is hard, for both you and your pet, I am here to eliminate that stress by making sure your pet is well taken care of while their human is away. I am available anytime after 8am for play dates and check-ins, I have a pretty open and flexible schedule and will be able to work out times that best work for you! When it comes to the safety of your pet, I take this very seriously. I only give treats/toys that you approve. If there are special accommodations your pet may need, please let me know before meeting so I can come prepared! I am very open minded to discussing anything that I can do to better care for your pet!

Gwen is wonderful! She is very thorough, attentive and kind with my two shepherds. She communicates and is very reliable with bookings, which is much appreciated. I was initially nervous finding someone for drop-in visits, but I found the right person.

About: I have always grown up with dogs, cats, and many other furry and scaly animals in my homes. Usually multiple at the same time! I do extensive research to make sure my pets get the best care they could have. I am also in college to be a veterinarian to further my knowledge. I am currently a part-time college student (Pre-Veterinary), so I have plenty of time to care for your furry friends! I will be updating my profile every semester. As of now, I have class from 10am-12pm on Tuesday’s and Thursday’s. I also have weekly appointments on Monday from 1:30pm~3:00(sometimes 3:30), and Friday from 2:00pm-3:00. Friday’s are a little more flexible because I can do my appointments virtually, so I would just need a little heads up:) I am a sponge for knowledge, so I do a lot of my own research on pet care, but I will also be starting a vet-assistant program either this summer or fall! From there I would get hands on experience, while also securing employment in an actual veterinary clinic. In your home, I assure to be patient and use problem solving skills to meet the needs of your fur baby! I am also great at communication, so I will always keep you in the loop and ask questions:)

About: From the beginning, my wife and I have shared a love for pets, especially dogs. I formed a home where our first child was a furry, four-legged friend. This beloved first canine child strengthened my love and taught me profound parenting skills, and I have passed that legacy on to our two teenage children and our three-year-old son. I formed a home where the love for our dogs is genuine and sincere. That's why caring for your puppies is my responsibility, and I take it very seriously. I have extensive experience caring for all types of dogs, breeds, and ages, and we carefully study their different and unique personalities and needs. I treat them with love and respect. From the moment your dog enters our home, he/she becomes another member of my family. Rest assured that he'll share unique and memorable spaces with each member of my family and will be a part of my family routine without exception. My home is a loving, personalized, safe, and warm home for your dog. Depending on your needs, I accommodate and strive to make our four-legged friend feel at home with us.
