“Blair was perfect for our needs. Our dog is very skittish with unknown people and never does well in a kennel. She came and met with him while we were home to get aquatinted with him. She took care of him for the two days we needed and he was perfectly fine and relaxed when we came home. Will definitely use her again. Thank You Blair!”
“Wonderful caregiver! Excellent communication! Highly recommend!”
“Jenna did a great job with my two cats. They are quite shy and go into hiding when anyone comes to the house. It took some time but by the end Ricky was greeting Jenna and getting some pets. Can't give a better endorsement than that! I had an accident while on vacation and needed help for about 5 weeks longer than planned which Jenna was able to do. That was extremely helpful. I would definitely use Jenna again an highly recommend her.”

About: I am currently unavailable until April 8th, 2020 due to a study service trip with Goshen College. Feel free to contact me, but know you will not receive a response until April 8th. Thank you for understanding. I have no professional experience with dog care, however I have cared for numerous pets over the last 15 years of my life (I'm 21 now) and have loved every bit of it. I am looking to get some extra cash by doing something I love while in college. I love taking dogs to the park to play for hours and then snuggling up with them later because they are so tired. It's my favorite thing to do is tire a dog out so much that all it does is want to sleep later (kind of like a kid, haha). Really just looking for an excuse to spend time with animals. Professionally speaking, I am a student in college studying Sociology and Psychology. I am a part time lifeguard/supervisor, a swim coach, and part time data and research assistant at a local nonprofit organization. I anticipate a Spring 2020 graduation
“I really appreciate Devin’s availability and willingness to respond to me when I blew up her phone ;) I literally could not find a pet sitter in this area that would respond to me. I have a lot of anxiety about leaving my dogs, and so it was nice to have someone who responded so quickly. (On a semi-unrelated note to pet sitting, she also took really cute pictures of my dogs which was helpful to my daughter while we were gone).”

Haley S.
“Haley would providethe safest and loving care to any animals she comes into contact with. She is a register vet tech who has the understanding and experience of taking care of animals and meeting their everyday needs. She is advocate for each animal that comes into her life. Haley is a dog/ cat mom herself she is always making sure her animals have the best care. If she sees an animal in need, she's going to stop what she is doing to help or rescue that animal. Haley treats my dog like it's her own and she would do the same for anyone else.”
Emma E.
“Emma was amazing at taking care of my two puppies at my own house for a whole 4 day weekend! She is amazing with dogs! I have a small chihuahua that does not like people very much, but she was great with him! My dogs are very active and she tires them out every time - running, fetching, playing, etc. My boston terrier LOVES Emma. Since she started coming to pick her up for play sessions a couple times a month, my puppy gets so excited every time she's here. I believe that the fact that my dogs love her and are eager to see her to go play with her, says more than what I could ever put down into words. Highly recommend!!”
