“Maciyah was SO wonderful with our baby Nala. We had just rescued Nala 3 weeks prior to having to leave for 5 days and were nervous to leave her, however, Maciyah was so great with her. She made us feel so much better about leaving her. She sent lots of pictures, gave our girl good cuddles and played with her and took such great care! Would absolutely recommend Maciyah to anyone needing help with their fur baby and Nala can’t wait to see her again.”
“Khelsi was fantastic - highly communicative, prompt, and so warm and cuddly with the dogs. I also appreciated that she came through on short notice. We definitely hope to work with Khelsi again!”
“Kristina was wonderful ! Very responsible and so loving towards My pooch Marley ! He loves her from day one ! I’d highly recommend her ! My dog is not an easy personality and he was happy as can be upon my return ! 5 stars”
“Cassidy was amazing! Our pup is VERY high energy and can be hard to handle so we were nervous about getting an house sitter for an entire week for the first time but she handled him amazingly, him and our house were in perfect condition as well as our kitty. She sent us updates and answered us quickly when we texted her and was so easy to work with plus she followed our instructions to a tee! I would absolutely recommend to book her and we will be coming to her for any and all of our pet needs in the future.”
“Casie is so amazing to our sweet Willow. She goes above and beyond to make sure she’s taken care of with all of her special needs. We never feel worried about leaving her because we know she is in good hands. High recommend Casie!”
“Mary Grace was great with my dog during the overnight stay. I came home to a happy dog and the house was nice and tidy too, which was a bonus. I definitely recommend her.”
“Chauna took care of our two anxious rescue dogs when we left them for the first time, and she won them over and gave them excellent care and cuddles. She communicated regularly with daily photos, and asked questions when necessary. She stayed in our house for eight days while we were out of the country, and left the house in great shape. Caring for our dogs involved giving them medication as well as navigating their sometimes reactive barking towards other dogs and sounds. Chauna did a great job with them!”
“Ashton was very accommodating and treated my 3 year old Corgi very well. Very professional and timely. Highly recommended! Will definitely utilize her services again.”
“Liz is absolutely AMAZING. I have two dogs who are a handful to say the least and she went out of her way to check on them multiple times and keep them happy! She understood the difficulty of the adjustment they’re going through with me starting work and them acting out of sorts adjusting to that. They were definitely both calm and happy from the photos and feedback Liz gave me. I would 100% recommend Liz if you need someone to care and watch you fur babies!”
About: I come from a long line of dog lovers and was taught from a young age how to be both caring and firm with furbabies. I have a very flexible schedule and have plenty of time to dote on your furbaby. With some advance notice we can craft a perfect play date. I treat my furbaby clients like family. Lots of attention and care. Other than a happy dog, you’ll never know I was in your home.
“Karina has house sat for me/my pets three times now and each time has been great. She is very respectful of my home and the animals seem to love her. She sends pics daily along with little updates and doesn’t get annoyed by even the neediest creatures (my cat and dog want attention 24/7). I will continue to use her for my pet sitting services in the future!”
