“Jill has been helping care for our animals while we are away from home for 10+ years. She is the epitome of animal advocate, lover and enthusiast. She cares for other people's animals as if they are her own. She is very knowledgeable, kind and trustworthy. I would highly reccomend Jill if you're looking for a safe and loving place for your pet while needing to be away from your home.”

6. Hailee E.
About: I’ve taken care of my own pets as well as neighbour's occasionally for about 5 years! I feed, bathe, and exercise my pets as needed. I have also taken care of other animals, such as guinea pigs, turtles, bunnies, and cats! I am very flexible! I just graduated high school and looking for a temporary summer job before I move off to college! I can work Sunday-Friday anytime from 7am-5pm! I have two friendly outdoor dogs, as well as a big outdoor dog kennel if they needed to be separated. I also have a smaller cage to keep your fur baby inside if needed!
7. Trista F.
About: I'm new at caring for dogs or cats that aren't in my family or my own but I'm happy to expand my experience and help those in need while doing so. I currently work full time as a graveyard shift employee for 4 days (Thursday nights through Sunday) I get out of work at 8 am Monday morning and would be able to do any task needed by a client by 8:30 am Monday and any time on Tuesdays or Wednesdays. I am happy to help out in any capacity needed on my days off, whether it's for a few days or just a half hour. I am more than willing to pet sit in a client's home. I can keep the dog in it's crate when doing overnight sitting if needed or keep it with me in the living room as preferred by the owner. I'm good at taking puppies out every 30-45 minutes. Adults would be every 2-3 hours that they are awake or whenever they wake up if I'm doing overnight sitting. I can reinforce training or play with them. For cats I can give attention, feed, water and clean litter boxes as needed. I have three dogs and a cat at home and I feel like it would be too overwhelming to pet sit from my home.
8. Pam D.
About: I absolutely love animals and I need to be around them. I understand their needs. I am good with all ages including puppies and seniors I have recently retired and am very flexible to care for your pet, day and night and weekends. I can even stay in your home while you are on vacation. If I come to your home I will follow the guidelines you suggest, whether they are crated in doors or are fenced outside. I will care for them the way you want and they are used to,
