Mercedes is wonderful with Winnie! She keeps me up to date on their visits and makes sure there’s fresh water in the bowl so I don’t have to worry about it when I get home. She also makes sure all Winnie’s toys are picked up after they’re done playing. It’s these little things that make such a difference and I love knowing Winnie is well taken care of when I’m at work. Thanks, again!!

Rachelle was very patient with our big dog. He is nervous with new people. She tried her best with him and he showed progress so we will keep trying.

Kayla was great with both my dog and cat. My dog was sickly and needed a shot once a day which she handled perfectly. Kayla was fabulous. My two precious pets were stress free and happy in my absence thanks to Kayla.

Cierra was very easy to work with. She showed up at the agreed upon specified time and dates and took care of both of my dogs. Both pups were safe and sound when we returned home from our trip. We would absolutely book with her again.

To whom it may concern. I've had the pleasure of having Georgia as a neighbor for many years and she was always a self starter. She frequently asked if there were any small jobs she could assist me with. These tasks include picking up dog waste in my back yard. Other tasks included assisting with mowing my very large lawn with out any complaints. When my wife & I would leave town we didn't hesitate to ask Georgia to watch our home which included taking care of our cat & my 55 gallon fish tank. She also collected the mail and assured our house was checked. Georgia is very reliable and communicates very well when we where gone. I would recommend her very highly for any task she would be expected to perform. Sincerely Bill Martin

About: I have years of experience dog and cat sitting! I love animals and I have two labrador retriever puppies of my own! I also have a kitten! I am currently in college but with a minimal class load so I have a ton of time to take care of your pets! My dogs love to go to the dog park every day and play frisbee so that is also part of our routine! I have two friendly lab puppies to keep your dog company! I have a crate if your dog needs to sleep there at night! Otherwise our puppies normally sleep in bed or on the couch!

Kelina was awesome! Extremely communicative, patient, and conscious of all of our pups' particular needs. She's an absolute professional with plenty of experience which definitely shone through. The pups seemed to warm up to her very nicely. We're excited for her to come back by again for our next trip out of town.

Trust Brandi implicitly with our yellow lab; she’s been walking him daily since he was little and we didn’t hesitate to leave her to dog sit at our house when we were out of town.

I have known Autumn for nearly two years. She is a honest person with great integrity. She has watched my dog many times over the time I have known her. She loves animals. I have personally witnessed Autumn voluntarily walk in the cold to help find a neighbors lost dog. Other times I have seen her take in dogs when the owner left them out in the cold with no food or water. Her passion for animals is second to none. She is gentle and kind and would do anything asked of her to care for animals. I wouldn’t want anyone else caring for my pet.

Mackenzie has always been very reliable! She is also very communicative and flexible. Our cat had an emergency as we were on our way out of town and she was so great at stopping by to learn how to administer the medication. I am always at ease when she takes care of our cats.

About: In my life, pets are more than just pets, they are part of my family. I take great pride in helping take care of others' fur family members as well. I do work full-time, but often have evening availability. If local enough to work, I can drop-in during my lunch break. Weekend availability is much more flexible. I will gladly follow any rules and preferences laid out by owners. Cats and dogs are often used to their own routines and settings, and I don't want to disrupt their normalcy. I like to know what is normal for your pets, as each family and household is different. I will keep the house clean. I leave it the way I found it.

We are so happy! Could not be a better fit for us. Our kitty is sweet but shy and I can tell from April's notes that he will warm up just fine when he needs her for a longer amount of time, he's gonna be very happy to have her.

About: I am a fur mom so I know how important dogs and cats are to a family. I have a full knowledge of what kind of care and time they require. I also worked at a dog boarding facility for 2 and half years where I was responsible for walks, feeding, grooming, giving vaccines, and just loving on around 100 cats and dogs of all ages. I’ve had experience with any breed of dog that you could possibly think of. My dogs and cats are my babies so let me share the love and put your mind at ease when you are away. I will always treat them with the upmost care. So please consider me to be able to love and protect your babies when you are working or on vacation.

About: I've taken care of dogs for a bit more recently. I've worked at a doggy daycare and grooming facility. I love it, I have 2 dogs of my own. I'm working full time so I could only check in on them in the morning before work, right after work, and then one more time before bed. But I assure you I will make sure they are cared for. I will follow any of your instructions to the best of my ability. I will keep in contact with you and update you on your baby as needed.
