I am writing to express my enthusiasm and confidence in recommending Hoai as an excellent choice for a pet caregiver. Having observed Hoai's interactions with pets, I am convinced that her unique qualities make them an exceptional pet caregiver. First and foremost, Hoai possesses a natural affinity and deep empathy for animals. Their gentle demeanor and patient approach create a nurturing environment where pets feel safe and loved. Whether it's cuddling with a shy kitten or playing fetch with an energetic dog, Hoai's genuine love for animals shines through in every interaction.

Logan took wonderful care of walking our big dog and making sure she got enough exercise and stimulation. He arrived on time and was very responsive to emails and texts. He’s a pleasure to work with and we (and our dog) , wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Logan.

We had a wonderful first experience with Vy, she is super responsive, professional, and kind. We got our daily updates with photos, and when we returned, the house was in great condition. Looking forward to our next trip because I know it will be stress-free, not worrying about our dog!

Erica is wonderful! She takes care of our dog, cats, and turtle when we are out of town and they all love her. After the visit, Erica always writes how the visit went, how our small zoo is doing and sends pictures of everyone. :) They all love getting pets and cuddles from Erica when she visits!

I used Anita on several occasions to watch my two dogs. She was conscientious, loving and efficient. My dogs took to her right away. She had them on the couch with her when I returned home from my week away. She’s a natural with animals!

About: I have been raised around dogs, cats, and birds my for as long as I can remember. Growing up I’ve always watched the neighborhood dogs and cats when their families went out of town. I am well experienced with all kinds and breeds and sizes, including more aggressive, or timid personalities. I have experience giving medications including insulin. I am comfortable and expirenced with birds as i own two parakeets of my own. If u have birds i’m more than willing to help with feeding/ anything else you may need! I’m currently working full-time however I’m typically off before 12 PM and have open days after! I can be flexible and discuss more on hours needed. I have a fenced yard and two small dogs and a baby cat. I have plenty of crates of all sizes if you’d prefer your dog to be crated. I also have a separate room your pet can be kept in away from the animals.

Nancy was fantastic with Minnie. Came to meet her, befriended her before the trip. I received photos and updates at each visit. She wanted to know everything I didn't even think about to make certain all would go well--and it did!

About: Hello, I’ve had dogs in my family since I was 5yrs old, I have experience from puppy’s to adults and seniors. Walking, bathing, and sitting, even specific feeding needs. I love to get outdoors and have pets have a safe and fun experience. I’m currently a stay at home dad, so I have lots of time and availability to take care of your pets. I drop my daughter off at school in the morning and pick her up afternoon, my days are open around that. I have a fenced yard so that dogs have room to roam without getting out, plenty of space to have fun and play lots of games.

About: I grew up on a farm with animals, and it's ingrained in me to love and care for them. I've raised around 10 dogs, both big and small breeds, and it's second nature for me to care for and adore them. I'm dedicated to making sure your young companions not only receive love and attention but also valuable guidance as they grow. My expertise with senior pet care ensures that older pets receive the extra care, patience, and compassion they require. I prioritize your pet's well-being and provide regular updates, offering you peace of mind while you're away. Your pets aren't just animals to me; they're cherished members of your family, and I treat them as such. I am available to dedicate my evenings after 5.30pm during the week (Monday to Friday) to spend quality time with your pets, ensuring they get the attention, exercise, and care they need. On weekends, I have the entire day to engage in more extended activities and outings with your furry companions. I am more flexible during the weekends. When dog-sitting for friends, I usually bring them to my apartment and make sure they are in a comfortable, loving environment and feel safe and well-cared for. I engage in activities like playtime, walks, and feeding, making the most of my time with them. Clients are free to check my apartment to see if their pet will be suited to have a comfortable stay here. It’s usually smaller pets that stay at my apartment. When caring for pets in my client's home, I will ensure their pets stay in a familiar and comfortable setting, reducing their stress during the owner's absence. I will make sure they continue with their daily routines, providing companionship, and address any specific needs.

About: I have experience working at a veterinary clinic in the past and feel very comfortable with any care your pet may need, including administering oral or injection medications. I have taken care of young and senior pets and have experience with both cats and dogs! I currently work full-time but am available before and after work as well as lunch time for drop in visits. I’m also available on weekends. I can do both drop in visits for potty breaks or longer play time sessions. I’m a big animal lover so I would love to spend as much time as you may need caring for your pets.

If my malti-poo Chloe could type she would tell you how much she adores Liz!! Liz has cared for my pup for over 10 years and just the mention of her name causes Chloe to wag! Liz will love your pet as much as you do and the pups can feel it!

Cindy watched my puppy last minute when we couldn’t board her due to vaccines not being complete. She saved our vacation and our pup had the best time. She truly treated her like her own. She walked her often and sent frequent updates. She took her on family activities for socialization and it made me so happy and relieved to know she was in great hands.
