3. Stephanie N.
“Stephanie is the best dog watcher! I regularly use her to housesit and take care of my fur babies when I am out of town. She is great about giving them snuggles, taking them on adventures and ensuring they are well loved in my absence. Not to mention, she documents it all and sends me pictures of of their adventures! Stephanie is one of those "dog people", who you just know will ensure your fur babies will not only be safe, but a little spoiled while your away. Do not hesitate to book her!”
4. Shawna .
“Shawna did a great job watching my two Westies. I could tell she is an animal lover by the way my boys immediately accepted her. She sent photos while I was at work, and kept good conversation with me. It wasn't easy leaving my boys with a total stranger, but the photos and texts put me at ease knowing my fur babies were well taken care of. Thank you Shawna!”

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life. They are my favorite animal. I think what sets me apart from most is that I genuinely put in the effort and time needed to care for a pup. I’m working part time, so I’ll have plenty of time to care for your pup! I love going on walks, and playing with dogs in general. I’ll always make time for them. I will make sure the dog is well fed, taken care of, and of course loved on! I will make sure to give them plenty of attention and playtime.
