“Amanda did a fantastic job with Duke. She was attentive, punctual, and communicative. We met beforehand, making sure it was a good fit for both of us. She and Duke hit it off right away during her initial meet up and each time she stopped by. My carbon monoxide detector started beeping during one of her visits and she called me immediately to let me know what was going on and get my input on what to do. I would absolutely rebook her again.”

About: Hi and thanks for stopping to read more. I’m an animal lover. I’m patient and attentive to each fur kids needs and personalities. If they are on a routine, diet or have special needs, feel less stressed knowing it will be done. I have a diabetic dog so I am comfortable with administering shots and understand the importance of schedules, dietary needs and alertness for behavior. All the fur cats and dogs are welcomed anywhere in the home and on furniture, including cuddles for naps. I love playing, loving and training. I’ve trained one of my fur kids (Bella) to be my service animal. And because every breed has their own DNA hardwire, I make sure I’m aware of their general habits. I am a full time FurMom and am the go to person when someone needs a sitter because I don’t have other commitments and I can stay home, walk, train and/or care. I have an enclosed backyard patio with some dirt area for the bathroom and concrete to sun bathe. I also have a roof top deck fenced in if it’s a nice day for sun and breeze. I live in a really dog friendly neighborhood and have 3 floors for stretching their legs. I have a spare bedroom for anyone to relax in and an indoor camera to see monitor I am at home full time to pet sit and am able to maintain timely health care, recreation, feedings for your loved furry loved ones. Everyone is welcomed wherever they feel comfortable and safe. I have a quiet room separately if needed and I let my dogs out every 2-3 hours for bathroom breaks and continuous refreshing water. For my cats, I make sure all their preferences are in order and litter is cleaned out daily. I’ll spend laser chase and smart games throughout the day.

“Jennifer was fantastic! She always responded promptly to my messages, and sent photos at every visit. It gave me peace of mind while I was on vacation. She took very good care of my cats and they were calm and happy when I returned home.”


13. Makayla K.
About: I’ve taken care of friends and family dogs for years. I’ve done walking, medicine distribution and bathing. Excited to meet new dog and cat friends I work full time Monday- Friday, so I have availability every week day after 5 and I’m free on the weekends. Flexible with times though:) I have a very friendly dog who gets along with all types of animals. She’s very quiet, mixture of energetic and a couch potato for sure

15. Talayia C.

“Talayia! First let me again say Thank You! Now if your reading this and you a pet parent like I am who is just absolutely sick about having to leave you pet, yet alone have a stranger stay/drop in to care for them THEN U MUST BOOK TALAYIA! She was able to accommodate my day of request and even came for a meet and greet prior to our departure. Talayia was so thoughtful and caring of our dog Sadie that there is absolutely no way I will ever not want to use her as our sitter! She followed every guideline I left and went above and beyond to ensure that not only was our pet safe but that Sadie was emotionally safe (she suffers from Separation Anxiety)before leaving. Seriously- Talayia- you have exceeded my expectations and I am so so thankful you were able to watch Sadie for us.”

“Amanda is the best! She is always very communicative and thorough. I’m so grateful to her for taking such good care of my fur babies, and they love her too! 💕”


17. Emily T.

“I really appreciated Emily taking on Benji at the last minute. She was incredibly responsive from the start and worked to ensure she and Benji could get a long for a long weekend before accepting the job. Emily checked in with me constantly and was very flexible when we decided Benji required more of her time than we'd initially planned for. When I arrived home, I could see that Benji had been given all the love and attention i would have provided him. I am very thankful to have found Emily and plan to use her on a regular basis.?”


18. Autumn D.

“Autumn did a fantastic job, and I could tell my cat was well taken care of. She followed all my instructions to the letter, kept me updated, and sent me the most hilarious photos of Kris, which all gave me great peace of mind. I came home to a happy and relaxed cat, and that’s all I could ask for. Thanks again!”


19. Margaret P.

“Margaret was honestly amazing. She exceeded all of my expectations and had such a level of patience and understanding. She was great with my cat who is scared of everything and sent me photos every time. I couldn’t have asked for more and her personality made me feel at ease.”
