“Ken is awesome! My two pups love him. They whine when we pull up to be dropped off. They are exhausted and miss Ken and his dogs when they leave! So grateful to have him walk the pups, welcome them into his home and show them love when I cant!”

7. Shannon F.

“Shannon is an absolute angel of a dog lover! The amount of attention and love she's provided to dogs she cares for is unrivaled! She gets just as much joy from walking, playing fetch, and snuggling as the dogs do! Every animal and even human she comes across seem to love her and I highly recommend Shannon to take care of your furry family member!”

With more integrity and honesty than anyone else I’ve ever met, I would absolutely without a doubt trust Kaylee with the care of any animal.”


9. Kristy R.

“Kristy was fantastic with my two mutts when I had to leave for a three-day work trip. They had a lot of separation anxiety but she managed them perfectly and sent lots of wonderful pictures of both the dogs as well as my cats that came and went while she was here. I am so happy to have her now established as a resource for future pet sitting!”


10. Krystal M.
About: Leaving your loved ones that cannot talk and describe their experience is scary sometimes. You want to be able to trust that they are in good hands with someone who will abide by your training, rules, and care as well as someone who will love them, show them as much attention as possible (especially important since their Person is away), and pay attention to their cues. I have been around cats and dogs my entire life, and love them more than most of the human race if we are being honest. I take pride in making new cat and dog friends wherever I go, and I can't wait to become friends with your best friend! While I love dogs and will enjoy caring for and playing with them, I am particularly drawn to cats. I have experience with both (but yes, primarily cats) since early childhood, and know how to read their body language and gradually warm up to them and build their trust. I truly enjoy the play and attention aspect that is needed when pet caregiving, and while no one enjoys cleaning a litter box or being a pooper scooper, it's something that is worth the reward of their company. I am usually home, with only things like taking my family to their job, school, and sitter as well as store runs taking up my time. I do gig work such as this and shopping/errands/delivery so I won't be away from the pet care job much if a boarding situation, and not for long increments when I am. Safety is key, I check exits before exiting, I will not leave two animals alone together that previously haven't been alone together nor will I leave them alone with kids, mine or any others. I will follow the owner's wishes as to not compromise their pet's routine or anything that could risk their health or wellbeing.


11. Aspen H.

“Idalou is so happy and tired! Aspen was great to communicate with and great with Idalou.”


12. Sydney M.
“Sydney does a great job caring for my senior pup. She’s provided excellent care for him over the last 2 years and makes my traveling so much easier. She is flexible and always quick to respond to requests. I never have to worry that my baby is in good hands when I’m away!”


13. Jasmine J.
About: I have had a bunch of pets since I was a kid! I enjoy bathing pets, playing and walking them! I love making them feel loved and special! I work part time and am a full time student but I always have down time that will allow for breaks, walks in the park and play time! Pets deserve the same respect as their owner and I intend to treat them as if they were! I want to make sure not only the animals feel safe but so do the owners!


14. Brooke B.
About: I’ve taken care of/had animals since I was a kid which includes dogs, cats, goats and chickens. I have my own energetic, sweet 2 year old Aussiedoodle who I treat just like a family member! I am currently a medical student so most of my availability is after 5pm and weekends. I do have some weeks off, of which, I’m available all day! Having my own dog who loves tons of walks a day, I know how important it is to make your dog feel comfortable and confident in their walker. This is also the best way to keep your pet safe. I genuinely care for every animal as I would my own because I know our animals are our babies.


15. Aaron C.
“Highly recommended. Aaron took excellent care of our dog, Luna, who can be a handful from time to time. We will definitely use him again!!”


16. Tarron W.

“All I can say is excellent. At a time when I desperately needed help she went above and beyond what was required, making my life and the dogs life so much easier! She walked the puppies for a long time and I could tell they absolutely adored every second.”


17. Samantha B.

“Sam went out of her way to care for my babies while I was in town working!! It was cold. It rained. It did not deter her from being a great caregiver for my dogs! She is reliable and follows instructions with perfection. My doggies loved her! I look forward to booking Samantha again on my next work trip to town!! Thanks Sam!!”


18. Nicole K.
“Nicole watched my Cat Toesy and my German shepherd Tyson for a few days while I was out of town. She was at my house to feed them breakfast at 10:00 am on the dot and at 7:00 pm to feed them dinner. She took Tyson outside both these times as well and even came by at 2:00 pm to take Tyson on a walk. She changed toesys litter box and gave both animals love and attention while I was away. I 100% recommend her because she is an animal lover herself and is a very responsible young lady. I will be asking her to watch my Toesy and Tyson the next time I go out of town.”


19. Be A.
About: Hi There! My name is Bethany. I love all animals and have one beautiful dog, Mr. Bojangles and four cats that think they are dogs! I have a fenced in yard and work remotely. I work remotely and my work schedule is very flexible. My office looks out into the fenced back yard so I can easily keep an eye on any visiting furry friends all day long. We go on daily walks and let the dogs roam around the fenced in yard. They can come inside through a dog door and are allowed on the couch and beds for snuggles.


20. Kimberly L.
“Our daughter, Kimberly, has had Black Labradors her entire life. Our family loves dogs. She is always showing us pictures and videos of dogs (and their masters). She will be a great dog sitter or walker for you. Marty and Charlene Large”
