This was my first time having someone stay at my house with my pup instead of bringing her somewhere. I completely trust Oli with her, it went well! I look forward to Oli helping my pup again for a wedding in September :)

Emily was great. This was the first time my dog had someone different staying and it went great! Ringo felt super comfortable around her and had no complaints. I received texts and pictures when she arrived, took him walking, and when he ate. We will definitely be getting Emily to stay again!

About: I have 3 cats and 2 mice, so I have a lot of experience taking care of cats and small animals. I love dogs and have pet-sat for my friends with small and medium size dogs I work a full time job Monday - Friday. I am available to do drop-ins before 7:30am or after 4:30 pm on weekdays. I am always available in the evenings or weekends. I will follow whatever guidelines the owner's give. Otherwise, my base care is to give dogs 2 walks a day and at least 30 minutes of playtime for both dogs and cats. Ensure the pets are fed and gone potty/clean litterboxes.

Averi did great with Sandy. We were gone on an extended trip and Averi stayed with Sandy in our home for 16 days. She followed all instructions for Sandy and really carred for her. Sandy loved her time and we got a lot of pictures while we were gone. This helped keep us from worrying to much. She walked, played with, and gave Sandy her medicine. It was christmas and Sveri got Sandy a puppy stocking and photo with Santa. She went above everything we expected. I highly recommend her.

Kyla was a truly attentive, communicative sitter. She was great with Chico during the meet and greet and asked good questions, leaving me to feel 100% comfortable leaving Chico in her care. She was flexible and gracious with last minute changes, sent updates and pictures while I was away, and left my home very neat after her stay.

Rachel was amazing! She helped with our dogs while we were gone for the weekend, and both dogs (and our cat) loved her and were so excited to see her. She stayed in communication with us the entire weekend and sent great pictures with updates. She followed all the instructions we left. Both dogs have terrible separation anxiety, but they didn’t seem to miss a beat while we were gone. Would definitely recommend!

She gave the pups plenty of love and exercise, and FaceTimed so I could go through their routine and virtually walk her through the house virtually. We truly cannot thank her enough!! To boot, she left the house in immaculate shape. Thank you, Piper ❤️

Joy was amazing!! She stayed with our dog for 7 days. Our dog can be a lot to handle and she did it perfectly. I received an update and cute photo each day. She was very tidy, organized, and most of all- trustworthy! The list of compliments to give her is endless. Forrest is a very active dog with some anxiety. He usually doesn’t do well on a leash, but Joy was able to walk him with some slack on the leash. That’s a huge milestone for our dog. I know he loved every minute of it. While Forrest was very excited to see me, he kept checking to see if Joy was coming back. He definitely misses her. Joy will always be the first person I reach out to when we need someone to take care of Forrest!
