1. Anabelle M.

“Anabelle was amazing. When Biscuit met her during the meet and greet, he absolutely adored her. During her stay she kept me updated on biscuit with texts and photos. She even did some grooming for him. She took him on walks and even got him to run. I haven’t been able to get him to run in quite some time. Biscuit also does not eat and has severe separation anxiety when I’m gone. He ate and didn’t seem to have any issues while I was away for the week. I will definitely be using her again.”


2. David B.

“David is fantastic! Our dogs really love David and he was awesome with sending us a lot of updates with pictures. We're pretty obsessed with our dogs, despite their little quirks which makes going away for us pretty difficult and David was wonderful with putting our minds at ease while we were away. He was very proactive with setting up a time to come meet us and our pups and I knew from his kind demeanor that he would be great. He asked us a lot of great questions that I didn't even think about, so I knew he was careful with the details of our dogs. We will definitely book with David again and I highly recommend him!”


3. Carrie S.

“Carrie took amazing care of our tiny pack. She sent the greatest pictures. We will definitely rebook with her in the future.”


4. Donald S.
“Donald has years of experience with both livestock and house pets. He has worked at a Vet Clinic for 4+ years and is also attending The Ohio State University to become a veterinarian. He has been a 4H member for 15 years and he is now a 4H advisor that helps with younger 4H members and their animals. He has a lot of knowledge in pet health care. He's a very reliable and responsible individual, and I would trust him with any of our family pets!”


5. Kailyn W.

“This was my first time leaving my two dogs with someone other than family. Kailyn did an amazing job with my two dogs who have a lot of behavioral issues that require special considerations (feeding and walking separately, medications, etc). She sent me pics and videos of the dogs too. Highly recommend!”


6. Brittany S.

“Would definitely recommend Brittany our boys loved her. She is a wonderful respectful young lady we will be using her again too dog and home sitter by far.”


7. Mckenna C.

“McKenna took care of my dog Gravy really well while I was gone for the business trip. She came on time to my place for the early morning before I left to go to the airport. She sent me the many pictures of Gravy with all of the updates so I felt relieved to know that he’s in the good hands! He usually gets anxious and used to have a separation anxiety but he did great with McKenna’s care! She really took care of him like her own dog 😊 My place was left clean after she left! I will definitely request for her for Gravy’s care in the future as well! Thank you so much 🙏”


8. Samantha A.
“Sam also works at the vet I take my dog to, and she seems to be there every time I am! She always has a smile on her face and has a positive attitude. She genuinely loves what she does and takes each opportunity she can to make sure these animals are treated like royalty. I will continue to use her anytime I am out of town, or just need a simple walk!”


9. Maggie A.

“My pitty was very comfortable with Maggie and her sweet dog Willow while dog sitting in my house for 4 nights. I received daily photos and updates of their fun walks and snuggle time on the couch. We will definitely be using Maggie again in the future! She is a dog lover through and through. Plus, the house was spotless upon my return.”


10. Megan P.
“Megan P. was an excellent caregiver for my dog Riley and my cat Richard. They can both be somewhat skittish with new people, but they both instantly bonded with her - and she bonded with them. She took excellent care of them while we were away on an 11 day trip. We felt guilty leaving them that long, but she sent us updates and pics of them, usually cuddled up with her :-). Prior to this trip we used to board the dog and have a neighbor feed the cat - and when we would return from a trip both pets would be wound up for a day or so. This time, after Megan watched them, we returned home to find them calm and very happy. It was so nice to let the dog stay in her own home, and for the cat to have company. In conclusion, I will ABSOLUTELY want Megan to watch over my babies the next time we need to go out of town. She was incredibly responsible, amazing with the dog and cat, and took care of them like they were her own. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.”


11. Tess M.
About: Both of my parents own/have owned a dog kennel. Starting at the age of 10, I began helping out walking, feeding, and loving on dogs. At 13, I worked as a part-time manager and associate at their kennel, managing medicine, cleaning, feeding, walking, and other duties. I also currently work part-time at another dog kennel in Sunbury when I am not playing softball or in school. My family owns 7 dogs, ranging in size from a Great Dane (who is deaf) to a Brussels Griffon! I have experience with hundreds of different breeds, as well as different medications, feeding instructions, and other special treatments depending on the breed. I also love to train dogs! While I am not certified to train, I have trained all of my own dogs to sit, stay, and lay down. Just something I would love to work on at no cost to get better at! I currently am a senior in high school who plays softball in the spring. I work part-time at 2 kennels, however most of that work is during the week. During the softball season, my weekends become free, allowing me to care for others animals! I have lots of toys, leashes, and experience playing with dogs, as well as cleaning up after them. I will bring doggy-bags to clean up poo in the yard, and lots of paper towels for any messes inside (especially with puppies). I also love to try to train to sit, lay, stay, etc. While I am not certified to train, it is a hobby of mine that I would love to work on! So I could easily bring trainer treats if allowed.


12. Via S.
“Via has cared for my two cats while I was out of town on a couple of occasions and has developed an amazing connection with them. As a close friend, she's over to visit often and, to be frank, my cats would leave me for her without a second thought. They come running to greet her, occasionally scrap over who gets to sit closest to her on the couch, and will happily nap on her lap if she lets them. She takes time to play with them and gives them plenty of cuddles, and they love every second of it. I've never seen cats get as excited when someone comes over as they are when they see Via. I would recommend her to anyone looking for someone who'll treat their pets with as much love as they do.”


13. Renee M.

“Renee sent lots of photos while we were away. She picked up poop in the yard and left our house clean for our return. We would hire her again to watch our 3 dogs.”


14. Kelsey S.

“Kelsey is wonderful! Great with our sometimes crazy girl Ella :) took great care and sent a picture of one very happy pup!”


15. Alyssa C.

“Alyssa was the best!! I took a much needed golf trip with friends in May and I was a little concerned with leaving my two boys with just anyone as they both have major separation anxiety. From the moment I met Alyssa I knew that that wouldn’t be an issue. My dogs loved her and that instant peace of mind allowed me to enjoy my time away. She was kind, gentle, attentive and punctual. I plan to enlist her services a few more times in the second half of the year. I would most definitely recommend Alyssa for dog watching and house sitting.”


16. Henna A.

“Provided such loving care to my baby boy Diego! She also made sure to send lots of pictures and updates throughout the day, which I greatly appreciated and loved! Highly recommend and will be a repeats client for sure!”


17. Lisa W.

“Lisa put both myself and my Zuri at ease right away. She provided daily updates, administered meds as instructed and left my home as I had left it for her. I'll be looking her up for my next trip, for sure.”


18. Maxine M.

“Maxine was so conscientious and took wonderful care of Artie! I would be happy to recommend her to anyone needing pet care!”


19. Dena D.
“Dena has empathy and kindness towards dogs and their well-being.She is understanding and calm when working with animals, especially those in distress.I am impressed with her genuine love and dedication to helping dogs. Collaboration ,flexibility and integrity make her a perfect match to work with people and their furry friends.”
