1. McKenna B.
“I could not be more pleased with McKenna watching my Lily! She accommodated a last-minute request, and I am so grateful she was available. My Lily can be a handful at times, but she took to McKenna, relaxed, and was a very good girl. I received photos and updates while away, which put me at ease so I could fully enjoy my time away from my fur baby. McKenna is such a lovely, sweet young woman who clearly loves and knows how to care for pets. I felt great having her in my home watching over my sweet, sometimes not-so-sweet, Lily. I would contact McKenna again without hesitation. She is amazing!”
2. Oleg Z.
“Oleg was just fantastic! He engaged easily with my puppy and took him out for long walks several times during the day. I appreciated all the exercise my pup got. He went above and beyond in my home tending to my cats which was not part of his responsibilities. He changed the cat litter, cleaned up after them and gave them snacks.”

I have a rescue dog Micky that is not friendly to most people and needs to be cared for from our home From the first Micky really liked her and was well taken care of.

About: Have had multiple dogs in my family throughout the years and have owned a dog myself for 3 years as well on my own. Loving and caring for them was absolutely the highlight of my day and I will make sure to treat your furry friend with the exact same I showed mine while you’re away! I do work a full time job in the elevator industry but, will be available on weekdays after 4:30 PM and will be available on weekends literally anytime you may need me. Just give me a shout and something can certainly be worked out! At the moment, I do not have the capability of bringing your pets home with me but can sit in your home! I can follow whatever the schedule is that you will need and can follow it to a tee while you’re away! I promise to keep your friend/s safe, happy and very content!
