Holly was wonderful with my boys! She was excellent with communication and handled all their needs. She even handled a few tiffs between them and let me know what was going on the whole week. I came home to happy healthy pups and a clean home which is all I could ask for!

Kate made me feel our doggies are in good hands. She was so calm even my chi mix was barking and even showing teeth at her before we left. My crazy energetic Auggie puppy had a nap during her visit shows he had a good time with her. Highly recommend Kate.

Lillie was an exceptional communicator before and during the stay with our dog. The house was picked up and in order when we returned home. Our dog was very comfortable with Lillie. Lillie assured us that all was well while we were gone. We will hire Lillie again!

Tayler was awesome with Stevie over a long weekend stay! There was a change in my cat’s health needs right before her stay and she took it in stride and made sure Stevie got all medications as directed. I felt Stevie was in good hands and all updates were prompt and thorough

I do not know where to start other than Hillary went above and beyond for my furbabies Piper and Paislee. The night before Hillary was suppose to come stay at the house Paislee became very ill and was at emergency vet from 615pm until 6 am. I explained everything that was going on to Hillary and for not ever watching Piper and Paislee she was very attentive to Paislee as we had to leave 2.5 hours after getting her home to the airport. I cooked everything I needed and left all medications on the counter and let her know the times of next doses. She seemed comfortable with everything and I couldn’t have been lucky enough to find her. She used her best judgment and I couldn’t have been anymore blessed with her caring PIper and Paislee. I was able to get updates about every other day due to our traveling plans. I let her know many times how grateful I was. Then I came home to a beautiful letter and she washed all the blankets from the dogs, towels, and the guest room bedding. She do not have to do that but I am grateful. Hillary went way above and beyond caring for our dogs. Thank you Hillary from the bottom rny heart!!!!!!!!

About: I've pet sat on and off for neighbors since I was a kid and grew up with dogs and cats in my own home. My childhood dog was the sweetest pitbull so I don't have any preconceived notions about any breed I love them all! I'm currently in real estate photography so I do shoots on and off during the day so if planned I can do stop ins and walks throughout the day. But for longer pet care I can do overnights on weekends. I'm very gentle with all animals but I also know how to handle difficult situations very well. It's very important for a pet owner to know how to deal with aggression/fights, sickness, running from the house, etc. and I've dealt with all of this and more.

Genesis is so sweet and a true dog lover. Our senior dog took to her right away. She followed our instructions perfectly for a quick weekend trip and communicated frequently. I got a kick out of her smiling and waving to your doorbell camera every time they went out for a walk :)

My pup takes is cautious of new people coming in the house, but he absolutely loves Emerson. It really shows when I get home and there's no signs of anxiety from him.

Amanda was an amazing house sitter for us while we were on vacation! She took great care of our two cats — a 5-year-old and a kitten who requires a little extra attention. Amanda was a wonderful communicator, sending us daily updates and pictures so we always knew our kitties were doing well. She also followed up promptly with any questions we had, which gave us such peace of mind. We would hire her again in a heartbeat!

Tristan did a great job for us while we were away. Our dog was well cared for and she got a lot of exercise playing frisbee which we were thankful that Tristan enjoyed doing with her because that is her favorite activity. We were able to enjoy our time away knowing there was someone caring, trustworthy, and capable in our home. Highly recommend!
