13. Allison C.
About: I am a volunteer and foster for a local animal rescue program of the triad. I currently have 3 dogs and a foster dog, who I am adopting. Love to play with dogs and walk them :). I am very flexible and can definitely work around your schedule. I am retiring from my job, and looking for something I love to keep me busy and active. Depending on the need to the dog, I provide walks, ball throwing, playing with toys, snuggles and cuddles and treat the dog as if it was my own. I want to be able to provide owners to feel safe while they are away. I know how hard it is to work or travel when you have pets, so I want to take the stress out of this process. As an owner of 4 dogs, I know it can be very stressful to leave your animals. I want to be able to take care of the animals so you can enjoy time for yourself, whether it be work or a vacation.

16. Zoey W.
“Zoey first off has tons of experience with animals, but she also truly loves and cares for them. Each time she has walked an animal or pet sat, which ranges from dogs and cats to reptiles, she always looks forward to it. For her, it's not just a job”
17. Tara C.
“Tara was a great source of comfort while I was away from my fur baby. She sent detailed updates after each stay, including photos. She is kind, reliable, and attentive!”

19. Morgan B.
“Thank you, Morgan, for all your help with Jake! We came home to a happy, healthy boy. We appreciated the twice daily pictures and reports very much.”
20. Cheryl B.
“Cheryl is the only person I get to take care of my animals. She is always there, very helpful and sometimes makes a special trip to make sure my animals are good. I had one with health issues, and Cheryl made extra trips to give medicine and just check on her. She loves on my animals and treats them like her own and to me, that's special and kind. They love seeing Cheryl come and visit, she spoils them to death. Finding someone trustworthy and mature is a big deal, and I found all that in Cheryl.”
