Wendy did a wonderful job taking care of our fur babies. Even though they tend to be shy around new people, they responded well to Wendy and even made friends with her! This was the first time we had a "stranger" care for our girls, but it went so well that I won't hesitate to request Wendy again.

Brian did a fantastic job watching over our elderly girl, Mecah, while we were away. Mecah is not always at ease with men but she was quickly comfortable with Brian which spoke volumes. Brian was timely in his visits and we even found Mecah staring out the front window at 7:30 waiting for him to arrive AFTER we were home! I think she will missed her new friend. It was critical to us to have someone who could physically assist our elderly 60lb girl as she has occasional challenges walking and Brian was up to the task. Thanks so much Brian and Mecah will hopefully be seeing you again in the spring.

Elaine is a wonderful pet care taker! I booked her for multiple days as a home visit for my 2 Schnauzers while I was away and my husband worked during the day. The pups are used to me being home during the day so Elaine really provided the attention they needed. She was prompt, meticulous about staying the full time, gave the pups lots of attention, and communicated daily. Will definitely book her again.

We had an excellent drop in. We were able to meet with the sitter ahead of time before, this allowed us to see how he would do. He seemed to have done pretty well. We heard during the drop in he was happy on the walk, so happy even had a bit of the zoomies when coming back to to the sitter’s place! This moment was important to us, since it takes time for him to warm up to new people. The sitter was friendly and seems to really love dogs. We could see ourselves booking again.

Lois was absolutely amazing with our dogs and cats! She took her time with them and they warmed up so fast with her! She is great at communication and pictures which we appreciate because we miss our fur babies so much when we are away from them. We 100% recommend her to take care of your fur babies while you’re gone. ☺️

About: We adopted our first pups in 2004 and cared for them for 18 pup-snuggled years. During that time, and since then, we have rescued, fostered and adopted animals of all kinds to include chickens, ducks and a pig named Kevin Bacon! Currently, we're home to Guinevere, the mild-mannered, 6 year-old mutt, Pápo, the 2yo ball of Pomeranian energy and a handful of clucky hens who will be fenced while your fur-babies are with us. We do have an 11-year-old hooman "puppy" who is just as loving and respectful of animals as we are. We will love and care for your fur-babies as if they were our very own. We are home almost all day, every day, so your pet will never be alone. I homeschool our son, and my husband works from home. Your pet will have ample opportunities to play outside in our 1/2 acre back yard. Our neighborhood is very quiet with houses situated on ~acre lots. We have neighbors with dogs, but they usually just run over to the fence to say hello and then go about their business. In our home, your fur-babies can roam freely, and they will have access to our 1/2, partially shaded, completely fenced-in back yard as often as they need. If your dog is one who prefers walks, our peaceful neighborhood has lots of places to explore; there is a nice park 1/2 mile away where they can sniff around where all of the turtles and ducks like to hang out. Pups who stay with us overnight are welcome to stay in their crate (if that's what they prefer), anywhere in the house, and, likely, on one of our beds.

About: I’ve grown up with herding dogs and adopted my mixed breed rescue puppy, Mona, who is now 2 years old! Ample experience with puppies, training, and adult dog care. Additional experience with high-energy dogs, like herding and working breeds. Open availability throughout the weekend with lesser flexibility on weekdays. Contact me if weekdays are needed, and I'm sure we can agree on something that works! Dog Walking: I ensure your dog’s safety by walking routes on quiet streets in the area. Depending on trails and parks near you, I’m open to walking/ playing with your pup in different environments besides neighborhood streets, like taking a trip to the dog park if one is within walking distance! Confirmation of this is required beforehand to ensure the safety of your dog when coming in contact with other pets. Additionally, I do not bring any other people or animals with me.

Celia is a natural with animals and was wonderful with my boys from start to finish! We were gone for 6 weeks but knew the whole time that our cats were in the best hands. 🤍 Thank you for taking great care of our fur babies and even going out of your way to make sure our home was in order! I highly recommend Celia to anyone looking for a responsible, communicative, loving pet sitter.
