My experience with Stephanie was wonderful! She was so good with my pets and took great care of them while i was so busy this week! She was a great communicator giving updates, asking questions, and verifying things along the way. I would trust her with my babies anytime!

We are very happy we used Emily to sit for our cat Lola. Lola is a shy cat, and can have some food-motivated aggression at times, but Emily handled this so well! She sent great pictures and updates every visit that made us feel that Lola was in great hands while we were away. She also left our house in tip-top shape. We would love to book with her again

About: I have over 7 years of experience caring for dogs, cats, and small animals, including work in animal clinic settings. I’ve babysat dogs where I provided playtime, walks, feeding, and lots of attention and treats. I’m also experienced with small pets, as I care for my own bunny, so I understand their gentle handling and daily needs. I’m patient, reliable, and truly love making pets feel safe, happy, and comfortable. I am currently available during weekdays for drop-ins and walks/ playtime. For boarding and more availability on weekends please feel free to message me! Thanks. I have many years working as a Vet assistant at animal hospitals. I assure every pet is in safe hands with me, I will always go above and beyond for them as if they are my own.

Lin took great care of Bean. She is thorough in her communication to enusure she is taking the best care of your pet. She sent pictures, videos and was responsive to questions. Bean generally hides when someone comes into the house, however she quickly acclimated to Lin and was social showing a high level of trust. I would recommend Lin!

About: I have two rescues at home who I adore. I would love to care for your beloved pups! I have a calm demeanor and I am open to all breed types. Dogs seem to like me, and I've even gotten timid ones to warm up to me. I am currently in college full-time, so my availability for sitting is limited to weekends. Depending on my schedule, I may be able to do a couple drop-ins during the week. In a client's home, I would give all my attention to your dog(s) and follow all given instructions for care. I am happy to walk, play with, feed, and give belly rubs to your good girl or boy. I am respectful of others' property and privacy.

About: I've taken care of dogs of every kind since I was a boy. In our family we've had multiple corgis, a German Shepherd, a plott hound and a Goldendoodle. I'm experienced with puppies, seniors and every stage of life in between. My schedule is currently quite flexible to help with your dogs. I update my availability on the app calendar, so just let me know your timetable. When caring for dogs in their own home, I make sure to follow the owner’s instructions, so their routine stays consistent. I provide walks for exercise, fresh food and water at the times requested, and plenty of positive attention. I’m attentive to each dog’s personality and needs, whether that means playtime or quiet companionship. I also keep the home tidy, respect the space, and send updates and photos so owners feel reassured while they’re away.

Steve met my reactive Malinois X Shepard this weekend for a meet and greet. Knowing my dog Echo has stranger danger I informed Steve up front of this fact, and he asked questions and gave suggestions prior to our first meeting. We met while I was out walking Echo, and then starting talking to Steve with Echo by my side. Eventually Echo wanted to walk up to Steve and sniff, which was great since my dog has about 8 humans in her circle of friends. I had brought Echo’s favorite treats with me, and handed off to Steve. To make a long story short my reactive dog was in the end eating out of his hand, letting him pet her while he was sitting on the ground at her level, and walking with him handling the leash . All in one session. Steve really showed his knowledge of dog body language, and he was able to comfortably handle my whacky dog in one session. I’ll be booking Steve again as we attempt to get him on property and in the home of my “guard “dog with everyone safe and happy. Thank you so much Steve!

We were impressed with how thorough and detailed David was during the meet and greet, and this carried over when we were away and to the attention he gave to our 2 large pups for a week. Once all of his questions were answered, it is clear he provided excellent care and carried out all instructions to the tee. He sent updates 3x a time with pictures so we knew they were doing well - exactly what you want for your fur babies and so you can enjoy your vacay without that worry. We would absolutely book David again!

Stephanie went above and beyond taking care of my older, sweet dog. She’s one of those sitters that you don’t have to worry about because she’ll do everything you could expect or want. I will definitely be asking her if she can be my dog’s primary or alternate sitter for all future jobs!
