4. Allison H.
“Allison is a tried and tested exceptional pet owner and caregiver. She has been responsible for caring for pets of friends and family as well as being able to adjust to individual pet needs. She once had a small dog that had a neurological disorder. She cared for him through the disorder, through a case of puppy strangles, and plenty of other health concerns. She has cared for a multitude of cats, mice, hamsters, sugar gliders, dogs, and even chinchillas. She helped my mother, who ran a guinea pig rescue, with guinea pigs at one time even. She's multifaceted when it comes to being able to care for animals. If she doesn't know something about an animal, she'll find out quickly, or she will find someone who can care for it better than she can. I would trust my pets with her, and I don't give that trust out often, if at all.”

“Angela has taken care of many family and friends over the years. She helped me out when I had knee surgery and helped me take care of my dog, Hanson, that is a Yorkie and my cat, Tucker! She has a love for animals especially dogs and cats and has experience taking care of all kinds of animals with her unique personality that all animals love. Her character is impeccable and she would be a blessing for anyone who needs her to help with their animals. I wish she lived closer to me because I could use her responsible, fun, loving personality with my babies.”

7. Susan W.
“Susan is absolutely amazing when it comes to caring for dogs. Susan watched my very active/ needy Bernese Mountain dog for a week and took exceptional care of him. Our dog can be a little skeptical with new people and although he has a mean bark Susan did not let that scare her. She took her time to get to know him and make him feel comfortable. Our boy got 3 walks a day which made him a very happy boy and exceeded any expectation. She treated him like he was her own!”

“I have known Megan for almost 2 years now & she has watched my pets multiple times!! I went on a week trip out of state & she stayed at my apartment, let my dog out, fed & brushed my cats, & cleaned the litter box. My pets felt so safe around her & my dog even knows her name now. She took Lucy (my dog) to a state park & they hiked for 4+ hours. I am so grateful to have her as a friend & that she loves my pets as much as I do!! I highly recommend her as a pet caregiver.”

About: I’ve taken care of family members animals, as well as friends of family members. I dealt with many breeds such as Shih Tzu, Husky, chow, and mixed breeds. I’m currently unemployed while my boyfriend works so I am free Monday-Saturday. I stay at home and take care of my dog Joonie B. She is super sweet and loves other animals. I treat every animal with the same love and respect. I believe you should treat them the same way you would want to be treated if you were in their shoes. Each morning I give Joonie her medications after taking her out to use the potty. We then play for a while and she eats a bit of her breakfast before taking a nap. I try to take her to the restroom every 2 hours as needed since she is new to being potty trained.

About: As a dog mom (X2) myself I know how our pets are our children and how important they are to us. I have taken care of dogs/cats for as long as I’ve been alive. I have bathed dogs, groomed dogs, home check-ins, walked dogs, provided overnight care, etc. I’m as experienced as someone can be. :) I am currently a part-time 911 Dispatcher, but spend a lot of time chilling at home with my dogs. My schedule is pretty free/ flexible. Please let me know at least a day in advance if you need any of my services. I have a fenced in yard with two playful golden retrieves to keep your fur baby company. If requested I can also crate them when need be. I am very attentive,loving, and a confident dog mom. Your pet will feel extra loved in my care.

About: I have two dogs, a Rottweiler and a Staffenger Terrier, they're my everything. I am in college for 3D Design and VSFX but still have plenty of time for those pets in need! I'm a student so my classes run from 9-3 most days leaving my evenings completely open. I also am perfectly fine with working weekends and would prefer working with the same pets because I know as a dog owner it's easier on them to be around people they already know. I personally have a fenced in yard but have had to do leash and doggy bag walks before so I understand that procedure, my dogs are a little bit of jumpers and lightly pushing them down is my response when they get too excited. My dogs usually get scooped dog food out of a big bag but I have also given wet food to my dogs before.
