Ajna was so great with our cat Jeff, we can tell how quickly he took to her! We loved getting the photo updates, and Ajna was always on time. We even found that she had taken inside some unexpected package deliveries while we were away! We so appreciate that Ajna was able to look after Jeff over the holidays

Over the summer, I hired Jenna to look after my three cats for multiple weeks. Her attention to detail and care for my pets made her a great pet caregiver. My cats loved her and I appreciated her taking daily photos of my cats for me! I highly recommend her and am planning on hiring her again in the near future. 10/10! Thank you Jenna for taking care of my cats with such love.

Honey is amazing at caring for pets, especially dogs. She's is very knowledgeable on training techniques and developing good behaviors so that dogs can be the best of companions. Whether it's long walks on leash, free roams at the beach, fetch in the dog park, or just tricks and games at home; Honey always ensures a dog is living it's best life. With our -somewhat challenging - Australian cattle dog she has worked wonders in keeping her obedient, entertained and most importantly tired out!

About: As a dog caretaker, I have a passion for caring for and nurturing furry friends. I have always had a deep love for dogs, and my years of experience in the field have taught me how to provide them with the best care possible. From feeding and grooming to exercise and playtime, I take great pride in making sure that each dog in my care receives the attention and love they deserve. One of the most important aspects of being a dog caretaker is understanding the unique needs and personalities of each individual dog. Whether it's a high-energy pup who needs plenty of exercise or a senior dog who requires extra patience and care, I am dedicated to providing personalized care for each dog in my care. I understand that every dog is different, and I always strive to create a safe, comfortable environment that meets their specific needs. In addition to my years of experience in dog care, I am also committed to ongoing education and professional development. I regularly attend seminars and workshops to learn about new techniques and technologies in the field, as well as to stay up-to-date on the latest research and best practices in dog care. I believe that ongoing learning is key to providing the best possible care for the dogs in my care. Above all, I am dedicated to providing a loving, nurturing environment for each and every dog in my care. Whether it's a quick check-in or a long-term stay, I take my role as a caretaker seriously and am committed to making sure that every dog receives the attention, care, and love they deserve. I believe that dogs are truly special creatures, and it is an honor to be able to care for them and make a positive impact in their lives. As a remote worker, my schedule can be unpredictable at times. However, I am committed to providing the best possible care for the dogs in my life, which is why dog day care is such an important part of my routine. By enrolling my furry friends in a reputable dog day care facility, I am able to ensure that they are receiving the socialization, exercise, and attention they need, even on days when I am tied up with work obligations. This not only benefits the dogs, but it also allows me to focus on my work with peace of mind, knowing that my pets are being well-cared for in a safe and nurturing environment. Additionally, dog day care provides a valuable opportunity for my dogs to interact with other dogs and people, which helps to promote healthy socialization and prevent behavioral issues. Overall, dog day care is a vital component of my schedule as a remote worker, as it allows me to prioritize both my work and my beloved furry companions. Having a fenced yard and providing constant supervision, coupled with love, is the ideal environment for dogs. A fenced yard provides dogs with the freedom to play and exercise in a safe and secure environment, while constant supervision ensures that they are always being looked after and protected from potential hazards. This combination of factors promotes both physical and mental health, as dogs are able to engage in their natural behaviors while also feeling secure and loved. Furthermore, the bond between a dog and their caretaker is strengthened through constant supervision and affection, creating a positive and trusting relationship. Overall, a fenced yard and constant supervision, combined with love, provides the best possible conditions for dogs to thrive and lead happy and healthy lives.

Carmelina is such a great character. She has such a great heart and cares about not only people, but all animals as well. She has been my friend for years and there have been countless times where she has taken my dogs on walks and treated them as her own. Any business would be so lucky to have her!

I can't recommend Ava highly enough as a dog sitter. From the moment I met her, I knew my furry friend was in good hands. Ava exudes warmth and compassion, and she treats every pet as if they were her own. Communication is key when it comes to leaving your beloved pet in someone else's care, and Ava excels in this department. She kept me updated with regular messages and photos, giving me peace of mind knowing that my dog was happy and content. What truly sets Ava apart is her genuine love for animals. She took the time to understand my dog's needs, quirks, and routines, ensuring that Stella (my dog) felt comfortable and at ease during her stay. Whether it was going for long walks, playing fetch in the park, or just curling up on the couch for some cuddle time, Ava made sure that my dog received the attention and care she deserved. Reliability is another hallmark of Ava's service. I never once had to worry about her being late or cancelling last minute. She is incredibly professional and organized, making the entire experience seamless and stress-free.

I am familiar with the Heimlich Maneuver for dogs, emergency pet hospital locations, and how to prevent and break up dog fights.

Leo is phenomenal! Very communicative before and during the booking. Four days in and our cat was cuddling on the couch with Leo. He’s a cat whisperer. Such a peace of mind while we were traveling. Would definitely book him again.
