10. Caitlyn B.
“My family and I highly recommend Caitlyn for any pet care needs! Caitlyn is responsible, on time, communicative, great with dogs of any age, and clearly loves dogs. Caitlyn went above and beyond for us with our new puppy and dog care needs. Our three dogs absolutely love her and she had such a positive impact on our new puppy. We hired Caitlyn to come to our home every day during the week while we were at work for a few months to help us with our new puppy who needed to be let out and played with while we were at work. She also fed the puppy lunch and took care of our other two dogs while she was there. I appreciate Caitlyn so much and her updates on how the new puppy was doing. Soon our puppy will be old enough to be on her own while we are at work. In the future I will definitely be booking Caitlyn again and have already recommended her to my family and friends.”

About: I’ve also enjoyed introducing puppies to the world around them, helping them navigate new environments, socialize with other dogs, and build confidence in their surroundings. Every day starts with a tail-wagging wake-up call and ends with snuggles on the couch. From morning walks to bedtime cuddles, my furry friend is the heartbeat of my daily routine. Whether it’s mealtime antics or playtime shenanigans, every moment is an adventure filled with love and laughter. every day is a reminder of the joy that comes with being a pet parent. Ensuring the safety of your beloved furry companions is my top priority on every walk. With a watchful eye and a firm grip on the leash, I navigate our paths with caution and care. From avoiding busy streets to steering clear of potential hazards, rest assured, your dogs are in good hands. With a keen sense of awareness and a commitment to their well-being, every step we take together is filled with peace of mind and wagging tails.

19. Alexandria S.
“Alexandria is an amazing dog sitter for various reasons. She has had dogs her entire life, she is great at making sure they get the training, exercise, and food they need, and she’s also extremely reliable. I have cats, but I asked her last minute to come over twice a day to feed them and scoop their litter boxes for a weekend and she did exactly what I asked with no hesitation despite it being last minute. One of my cats is very skittish and has anxiety but Alexandria was great with her. Also, Alexandria has experience horseback riding as well, so you can really tell that she loves animals!”
