About: I've worked with a variety of dogs, cats and exotic animals since I was a teenager. From walking and caring for Pittbulls, Labradors to teacup dogs. I've also cared for my own German Shepard from childhood. I currently care for an elderly kitty and do my best to minimize his hip pain and care for his ear irriation with vet recommendation ear drops. My schedule is flexible due to my work in freelancing, I am available almost all hours as long as I am given a 24-48 hours heads up. I will cater my services to your pets needs ensuring they are getting the most while you are away. I understand that every pet is different and will have specific needs. Whether that be actively playing or walking your energetic dog until they are tuckered out for the evening or ensuring your senior dog is able to enjoy his walk at a slow leisure pace and hang out with them for however long is needed to make sure they aren't lonely. I read instructions carefully to make sure pill doses are correctly given at the times needed, enclosures are properly lit and cleaned, and food is given correctly. I am open to pets that have specific needs.

Tanya was great! She provided Sinéad much needed social and play time, and was very flexible when I ended up getting back early and we needed to adjust our booking. Would absolutely book again :)

Ash was fantastic, very thorough and knowledgeable – about dogs in general, but especially ones like my Quincy, fearfully cautious yet wanting to please. We are so looking forward to seeing what magic he can with all four. And especially, me and my partner!

About: I have had dogs and cats as part of my family all my life. I have taken care of puppies and kittens to seniors and every step in between of my own and friends and family. My job is based on volume and is generally 6 to 8 hour day. I work 5 minutes from my house and at anytime if needed I would be able to run home for a potty or medication break My dogs are my world. I provide the up most safety standards for all of the furry paws that come into my life. I believe in treating everyone pets in a manner that I would expect mine to be. I have gone above and beyond to provide a secure fenced in yard. I also have a gate between the living area of my house and the front door to keep dogs from running out.

About: I am responsive and communicative, which helps alleviate any unnecessary anxieties while I am taking care of your dog. I have experience working with dogs of all ages and of all different sizes. I work hard to address any particular needs that your dog or cat may have. While I work full-time, I have the flexibility of working from home — which means I can easily step away throughout the day to tend to your pet's needs. I'm available for check-ins and care during the early morning, midday, and evening, and if your pet thrives on consistent company, I'm happy to work out of your home so they're never left alone for long. I pride myself on following instructions carefully and will always keep you in the loop if any questions or concerns arise during our time together. Above all, your pet's comfort is my priority — before anything else, I take the time to understand their unique needs, personality, and preferences so I can provide the best care possible. Every pet is different, and I'm happy to adapt my approach accordingly. Got an energetic pup who lives for long walks and belly rubs? I'm all in. Have a shy or sensitive pet who needs a calm, quiet environment to feel safe? I'll match their energy and give them the gentle, patient care they need to feel at ease.

About: I started my first dog walking business at the age of ten, “Paws on Petsitting” complete with business cards and all! I love to spend time outdoors and enjoy the fresh air and what better than to have the company of a furry friend?! I am a passionate caregiver and will never leave without a few extra treats and lots of belly rubs. If personal space is your pets MO, we can do that too! I love to get to know animals and their unique personalities and it brings me lots of joy in the day to get to give them company. Communication is a key part of my services and I want to make sure that both you and your pet are comfortable and confident! I am recent graduate from Hampshire College with a BA in photography and plant biology. That means that you will receive lots of pictures from our visit and that I am highly self motivated and communicative. I am a barista/waitress and generally can pet sit in the mornings/afternoons and am free to fill up my days off! Exercise is always a part of my day whether it just be a walk in the sun, or a trail run and I would love to bring your pet along. I am very reliable and working in the service industry for 8 years now I never leave a job unfinished or without double checking my work. I am sure to not only take general safety measures, but also leave a space clean and full of love!

Grace was so good with our cat, Guppy. She was always on time and followed the instructions we gave her perfectly. Guppy loves to play until he's out of breath, and Grace sent us pictures showing with him panting from the fun time he had. We'd definitely recommend booking with Grace, and we plan to again next time we have to leave town.

Hiring Ian is one of the best decisions you can make for your pet! Not only does he have a flexible schedule and great availability for last-minute visits, but he also follows directions to the letter, is reliable, and your dog will love him (even our reactive dog loves him). He also sends great updates with amazing photos to gush over. We always feel safe leaving our dog and our home in his hands, whether it’s for a midday walk or an extended vacation.

Lukas was absolutely wonderful with Hazel and KitKat. When I got home, even after a horrific rainstorm, they were happy and purring as if I'd never left. I cannot thank Lukas enough for giving my cats such good care. Not only do I highly recommend Lukas to watch your furry friends, I now have peace of mind to know that I have someone I can count on for future visits. Thank you so much!
