Jennifer and her family took care of my dog for a week while we were out of town. Her detail to his well-being was exceptional and she offered many additional things such as giving him a bath, cleaning a gooey ear, offered to trim his nails and a calming care supplement for his nervous sensitivity. Upon return, I could see he had been in good hands! In the past when we’ve gone, he’s ended up with hotspots from stress, but this time his coat was healthy, and he seemed to relaxed.

I was a little nervous about using this method of dog sitting but after I returned I was so happy. My dog was not the usual nervous nilly when I use to pick her up at kennel. My dog sitter Katie was great! She sent me updates which made me happy. She was great with my dog and gave her all the attention she wanted.

Haley was awesome! She took care of our puppy and cat for a week. They were both so happy! She gave them so much attention and kept us informed while we were away. When we came home the house was spotless! Our pets were relaxed and you could tell she spent a great deal of time with them to keep them entertained. We will definitely hire Haley again!

Kim is the most phenomenal person for pets and house and everything in between. Her attention to detail and true genuineness is unmatched. Good people still exist and Kim is one of them.

About: I have a dog allergy that I take medicine for. I am willing to work with dogs. I am hoping that exposure to dogs will help my allergies improve. I am flexible with my schedule. I can accommodate and move around my days depending on your needs. I have a 4 year old, so it will all hinge on her care. I have a senior cat living with me. I know how to follow dietary or physical restrictions set by the pets' owners. Clear instructions are key.

Carla is wonderful. She is patient with my Pittie who is scared of life, and left the house spotless after a two night stay. I would not hesitate to have Carla watch Blue again, and is in fact already booked for more dates! ?

Jedan is amazing!!! She stayed at our house for about a week and cared for (and spoiled!) Kimmie as if she were her own, buying her toys/treats and even cooking for her. She kept us constantly updated with messages and photos and was extremely respectful. Looking forward to booking her again!

About: I have had dogs and taken care of dogs and cats since childhood. In my more recent years I have dog sat for family members and neighbors. I have enjoyed being able to give peace of mind to them knowing their pets are safe, happy, and cared for. Owning a dog and cat myself I understand the stress and fear of having to leave your pets. Whether it’s work, vacation and other life events it can feel like you’re leaving a piece of your heart behind while you’re away. I strive to bridge that gap and be able to provide peace of mind. My dog is a rescue and came to me with some behavioral challenges: fear, reactivity, resource guarding and separation anxiety. Since being with me he is a thriving boy with manners and is learning new skills and tricks every week! That being said I don’t scare easily and have experience managing a variety of behaviors. I know from experience leaving a pet that has some big feelings at times can be even more challenging and thats where I come in. To offer you peace of mind knowing your dog or cat will be safe and cared for with me. I firmly believe in the saying no bad dogs and would love to get the opportunity to take one worry off your plate while you are away! I have summers off and am able to be around as much or as little as needed for your pet in the summers as that is a busy time for vacations. I do structured schedules with play, train walk and rest times with pets. I can also create scheduled enrichment times throughout our time together. I try to cater what we are doing based on needs of the dog so they are fulfilled.

Melissa took excellent care of our pups while we were away for the weekend! She kept in touch and sent pics and videos of them frequently. Our house was immaculate when we got home and the dogs were well loved and cared for. Melissa is great with animals and made us feel good about leaving the dogs with her. She is friendly, communicative, and upbeat- a great sitter!

Yvette was phenomenal. Our dogs received exceptional attention and care in our absence. Our Frenchie Hazy is paralyzed due to IVDD and requires medical care including bladder expressions. Ivette did an outstanding job caring for her, as well as followed all care instructions. Our home was left in better condition than when we left it. We will definitely hire her again to care for our pups.

About: I always tune into the unique personality of each animal and I don't rest until I'm sure the animal knows its safe, loved and cared for. Since I was born I have loved animals so genuinely and patiently that I've never encountered a problem, even with the hard to figure out ones. I love them all and my husband does as well. Therefore we treat our pets like they're one of us, with plentiful attention. We are complete home-bodies. We like spending time outdoors, and going for walks. Our home is very inviting as well, with a fenced yard, multiple spare rooms, close to many trails near by and lots of spare blankets and pillows. Feel free to give any advise on how to care better for your dog, and I will be more than happy to accommodate.

Rhonda was so kind and provided detailed information on how my elderly dog was doing while I was away. Her communication allowed me peace of mind that my dog was well cared for. I would absolutely recommend her, she took excellent care of my dog and even got her to eat her meds which she typically refuses to do’
