From the start, Dan has been great! He responded quickly to my inquiry, set up a time to get to know our pup and his routine, and has been extremely flexible with our schedule. He took our German shepherd out on a long walk and came back later in the day for some play time and tired him out good! I would recommend Dan to anyone looking for a dog walker or sitter☺️

Grace has been amazing with our pets. We have a dog and a cat and she is professional, attentive and very reliable. She plays with the dog in our yard and takes her for long walks. She loves playing with the cat and snuggling with both our pets. Grace has stayed overnight at our home when we travel, and she keeps us updated with photos and videos of our furry ones. We are getting a puppy this spring and Grace is looking forward to helping us to train her.

About: From volunteering at my local animal shelter to helping out neighbors, friends, and family, I have over nine years of experience caring for animals in addition to always having pets of my own. I'm currently enrolled in college courses, but my schedule is very flexible, and I have lots of free time, during the week and on weekends, for pet care. I love spending time with animals. Between feeding, walking, socializing, and cleaning up after dogs and cats, I take very thorough care of my pets.

Lea was the absolute best! We were left in a bind last minute the day before Christmas Eve and she was able to accommodate us for 2 walks/day until we got home- was able to come over that same evening we reached out to her to do a quick meet and greet and Nola loved her right away. We immediately felt so much relief trusting her to take great care of her. Always made sure to give us an update, even played with her indoors when our stubborn Nola who hates rain wouldn’t go outside :) would 100% rebook and recommend to all!

About: Hello, I'm Lisa! I have taken care of a variety of animals for the last 20 years! Currently, I have two guinea pigs, Scooby and Shaggy. They are my little pride and joy. Over the years, I have had dogs, cats, bunnies, fish! I can handle any age of any pets: Puppies to seniors! I have experience in housing breaking puppies, and even assisting senior dogs. I can handle any type of pet, temperament, and age. Each week I make my own work schedule, which means I can change my schedule to accommodate your pet. I have a very flexible work schedule that I am allowed to work from home or leave work to go home to tend to your pet. I also can take your pet to my work (office setting) if you would allow that! I would make sure your pet is my top priority! I would spoil them with love and attention. However, I would honor your normal feeding times/restrictions and respect any rules you put into place. Playing time is a must! I currently working part time, taking one summer class, and I have. internship. The class and internship are online thus I can work from your home. Plus I make my own work schedule week by week so I can accomadate to your pet needs! When I am at a clients home safety and respect and my top priorities. Before letting a dog outside I will check to make sure the fence are locked. I will always make sure windows and doors are locked before leaving, and just before I will do one final check to make sure all food it put away and crates are locked. (If using crate). I will follow all clients instructions and ask for a print out list of instructions so there is no communication error. I won’t cross any owners boundaries.

Richard took great care of our dogs and home while we were away on multiple vacations. He is the most reliable sitter we have ever had and it's great to know that our two pups are in great hands whenever we're away. Richard has been a blessing, we are elderly and sometimes call on him for other things around the house and he is always very helpful.

About: After losing my beloved greyhound, Lucy, about a year ago, I've been longing to be around dogs more often. I have taken care of friends and neighbors dogs while Lucy was still here and in the past year. I am a college student with mostly remote classes so I am very flexible on time! Anytime that works for you I can most likely fit into my schedule. I can stay overnight with your pup or come in intermittently throughout the day to check in on them, Whatever you guys are most comfortable with.

About: To speak a little bit about myself, my family has two cats and a dog who I have grown up with for majority of my life. So I am very used to living with animals. I also am known as a lover of animals. Personally, I have my own cat back at home who is the brown one pictured on my profile. I’ve had Kiwi for about three years now. I have also pet sat for my neighbors going on multiple years now. Doing so I have cared for their fish, dog, geckos, and cats. So I would say that I have a versatile, but also well-rounded experience caring for animals. I also am very receptive to specific instructions, so if your pet is in need of specific care, I am happy to help how I can. I am a full-time college student and I have classes on Monday to Friday from 11 AM to 3 PM. Before or after these times & also on the weekends, I’m incredibly flexible. Please keep in mind that I will be taking a bus to come visit your pet, so notifying me of services needed in advance is important to me! As a college student in a dorm, it is my preference to come to client’s homes and care for their pets there. I am also open to walking pets in the general neighborhood as well. I am very experienced entertaining, walking, feeding, and generally caring for both cats and dogs. That being said, I am open to working with any other animals, as I also have experience working with birds, aquatic animals and reptiles.
