“Lynae is the best! My two sheltie usually create a lot of noise when people come it the door (even me!). Lynae has them behaving like gentlemen, quietly waiting for their leashes to be put on for their much loved lunchtime walks! A true dog lover and dog whisperer!!! Thanks again Lynae!”
2. Madison P.
“Madison was an excellent sitter. She spent time with my dogs and made sure they were loved. She played ball and frisbee, Picked up any messes, watered my flowers, turned on the porch lights and made sure all gates and doors were locked. She is awesome! I will definitely book her again without worry.”

About: If having a soul means to be able to feel love and loyalty and gratitude then animals are better off than a lot of humans. Every since I can remember, I have always been around and loved animals. My Dad was very influential in teaching me to love and care for them and how to read their body language. I started pet sitting when I was in elementary school, when our neighbors would go on vacation I would care for their dogs and cats. I have had many beloved pets growing up! Animals are my Life! Pet care fits into my daily routine perfect as I have a daily schedule with my fur baby’s. Taking care of my animals are my first priority I have a fenced back yard 2 fur baby’s to keep your baby entertained. We love going on walks or cuddling which ever your baby likes most!

12. Anissa B.
About: I have two years experience working for a vet. I’m very caution with my job duties I listen to every detail given. I can administer medicine and insulin for pups or cats when needed. I would care for other pets as if they are my own. I do work a full time job at a vet clinic and do nails for few clients. I have time between my full time job to watch and care for you animals I have a fenced backyard with two friendly dogs and I do have a indoor cat. I’ve watched pets for family and close friends I normally would go to the house to check and feed them.
13. Jimmi O.
“Jimmi pet and house sat for us, and our dog and cat didn't even know we were gone. Our dog got to go on some hikes around our home and our cat enjoyed cuddling with her.”
14. Caitlin C.
About: I’ve cared for many animals all my life. I have had many different animals growing up, worked in an animal shelter, and have a true compassion for animals. I’m currently in college but still have a fairly open schedule. I have different times of availability throughout the week and am available most weekends! I have watched dogs in their parents homes before. Just give me specific directions on how to care for your pet and I will follow! :)
15. Andrea C.
“Andrea is great with my pets. Abu(husky) just loves her. Zarya (pit bull) loves when Andrea takes her for a walk. They say dogs are a great judge of character. I feel confident leaving Abu and Zarya in her care. I know they will be treated as if they were her own.”
16. Lenny M.
About: I have watched over many dogs before from my own family dogs to my personal friends dogs as well as my moms friends dogs. I am reliable and responsible and can take good care of any dog I just graduated from Carlsbad High School and have plenty of time on my hands. I do plan however to get a part time job here soon. However I do have a flexible schedule I’ve watched over plenty of dogs throughout my life and understand dog behavior. I have watched over friends houses in the past and have been very respectful of their homes.
