“I just can’t say enough good things about Rebecca Peterson. She has a way with dogs. My two Great Danes loved her at first meeting. She’s very responsible as far as giving medicine, yet playful with the dogs. She cuddled with them when they wanted to. House sitting for us was great. We trust her completely. She’s a keeper.”
5. Helen B.
“Helen is a compassionate and kind-hearted person. She has rescued 6 dogs and helped with two puppy births. I was amazed that she helped with the two litters- but she did so with ease and helped the mommas have a successful births with all living pups. She is active and loves to explore. She enjoys taking dogs on nature walks and exploring the area. If the pup needs some extra TLC, Helen is there to provide snuggles and snout kisses. She is incredibly receptive to a dog's behavior and wants them to feel comfortable. Having Helen as a pet caregiver means your pup will be safe and loved.”

About: I have cared for pets my whole life from my own, to neighbors, family members, friends and strangers! I love pets of all kinds. I have owned pets from chinchillas to cats and have always had a dog in my household. I am hoping to provide love and care to pets of all ages! I am working between the hours of 7:30-3pm Mon-Fri so I have some availability in the early mornings and a lot of availability in the evenings! My weekends are mostly free to care Friday evening through Sunday evening! My cat has her own side of the house she stays in but I can crate my pet or your pet if needed. I live on 13 acres of land away from main roads so there is plenty of space for your pets to run/go for walks with me and no danger of traffic!

“Hannah was so great! She was flexible despite some unexpected turns of events, and even though my dog is afraid of basically everything and everyone Hannah's patience got Dizzy to open up and be relaxed! Hannah was communicative and flexible and I will definitely be reaching out whenever I need someone to watch Dizzy!”
11. Elizabeth S.
“We hired Elizabeth to petsit our cat who was injured and needed medication. She was able to help last minute and stay in our home with our fur baby to continue his treatment. She gave him all his meds on time and treated our home with respect. To add a constructive note I would suggest that the communication while sitting could improve. Overall Elizabeth is a good sitter and would recommend!”
12. Jeremy M.
About: I enjoy taking care of dogs and cats of all sizes. I also am attentive to watering plants, watching out for deliveries, and checking mail. I keep the house neat and orderly just as I would have found it. I also am quiet and would be respectful if there are neighbors. I work remotely full-time, Monday through Friday, which fits well with pet sitting as I would be readily available while I work, and my current hours are 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. I can take breaks frequently to walk pets and do all that is needed. I read instructions carefully left and adhere to all that is needed for each pet. I am glad to ask questions when those arise, and I also at times may take a picture of the pet to send to show how content each pet is and that they are doing well.
13. Beau G.
“Beau is very good with animals, they all love him. He in return shows them alot of love and affection. Play time is his thing also. Responsible and caring, he will take good care of your pet.”

15. Karlee B.
About: I worked two years at a local boarding facility when i was 17. I’m constantly around animals, and strive to help when needed for them. I’m available at any time of the week. I’m extremely flexible, just let me know, and I’ll be there for you and your fur baby.🐾 My mom lives out in the country, so there’s lots of room to run around. We have a dog park down the road.
