About: I graduated in 2021 with an associates degree in animal assisted therapy-canine. The past two years I have spent working with horses. In the last four years I have studied under two vet technicians. I currently work 16 hours a week, so I have loads of time to spend with your fur babies. I will be available most weekends for boarding. I do not have a fenced yard. But I will happily take your pet out on leash. I have 3 friendly dogs that can keep your pets busy. I can crate dogs as needed, as well.

About: I have grown up with dogs my entire life. Back at home I have volunteered at a spay and neuter clinic helping the dogs and cats in post surgery recovery. I also have been a caretaker on another dog platform called "Wag". This job includes dog walking, drop-ins, dog sitting and hosting. I have loved the experience with being a temporary dog caretaker and frequently fostering dogs from the athens county dog shelter. Last March I had the privilege to travel to Costa Rica and volunteer and dog shelters there providing care for their animals and facility. Overall, I'll appreciate any chance to be able to help an animal. Currently I am fully available for any day/time needed. i will be free the remainder of this summer up until i go back to school for fall semester at the end of August. I live in a house with 4 other roomates. Usually, theres only two or three of us at home at the same time. They also all love dogs too! We have a small unfenced yard in front of the house. The street we live on is far from campus so it is calm and quiet around our house. We have a lot of space on the first floor with space that is open and has hardwood floors.

Natalie has taken care of our dogs and cat for a few years now. She gives the pups lots of love and I think the cat likes her more than us! She is responsible and always communicates well as far as how the animals are doing when she is with them.

I'm delighted to share my experience with Kayla as an animal caregiver. From the moment I entrusted my beloved kitty Milo to her, I knew I had made the right choice. Kayla is an exceptional animal caregiver who goes above and beyond to ensure the well-being and happiness of her clients. Her deep love and passion for animals are evident in every interaction. What sets Kayla apart is her dedication to providing a safe and nurturing environment, whether it's daily walks, playtime, or simply cuddling on the couch. My cat meows with excitement every time he sees Kayla, a testament to the strong bond and trust they've built. Furthermore, Kaya is highly responsible and reliable. She consistently ensures that my Milo is well-fed, and stays active and engaged throughout the day. I have complete peace of mind knowing my cat is in her capable hands. Kayla also maintains excellent communication. She provides regular updates, photos, and videos, so I never feel far from my kitty, even when I'm away. It's a level of transparency and dedication that truly sets her apart. In summary, I couldn't be happier with the care and attention Kayla provides. She is a animal lover, and the professionalism and commitment to the well-being of pets is truly commendable. I wholeheartedly recommend Kayla to anyone seeking top-tier care for their furry family members.

About: I’ve owned all kinds of pets since I was a kid! I’ve had fish, hamsters, rabbits, cats, and dogs. I’ve also had family rely on me to check in with their pets while they’re away. Since winter break is starting and classes are not going to be in session, I will have extra free time on my hands to care for your pet(s)! I am a huge animal lover! I will go out of my way to make sure they are treated right. The only bad thing I could do to an animal is annoy them with how much attention I give them!

Kate is absolutely amazing with animals. She has shown unconditional love for our three golden retrievers. Many times she can be found on the floor in the middle of a puppy pile as they try to lick and cuddle her to death. She truly has a passion for all animals and goes above and beyond at making sure they are more than just taken care of. She makes them feel loved and pampered and ensures all of their wants and needs are met. I couldn’t recommend her enough.

Annie was great. She was very flexible about the times of the walks and was always on time. My wife's mother was home but unable to walk the dog. She told us that Draco enjoyed his walks and was always happy to see Annie when she arrived. We were very blessed to have found Annie.

This guy is a straight up professional. I had to leave the country on business and my wife couldnt always walk the dog so I had to find someone trustworthy. This guy is it, always on time, long walks, and my puppy vlad just absolutely loved him. Definitely go with this dude, I'd let him marry my daughter honestly.

About: I've taken care of cats for extended periods and helped dogsit many times with my roommate back in Denver. We would split dogsitting duties and it was so much fun. I'm a grad student, so I'm in and out of my apartment every day. I'm flexible with my schedule and can always build in time to take care of animals. Every night, I'm home and ready to pet-sit. We have cozy furniture and an unfenced place out back to run around, plenty of space to crate, and close to the bike path for walks.
