2. Brooke H.

“I recently had a baby and was unable to walk my dog for a two week period. Given he is accustomed to several walks a day, this was really a big challenge. Brooke came 2x a day for two weeks straight rain/shine/cold didn't matter! She was wonderful and Tucker fell in love with her. She was always on time and did the full 30+. HUGE HELP! Would use again for sure!! Thank you!”

18. Victoria V.
About: Growing up around animals my whole life, I have developed In-depth knowledge and understanding of animals: having them as part of your family for your whole life means i have gained extensive knowledge about their behavior, needs, and care. This understanding allows me to provide personalized attention and cater to the specific requirements of each dog I sit. Being a lifelong pet owner, I understand the importance of individualized care for each dog. I are likely attentive to their unique needs, including exercise routines, dietary requirements, and any specific medical or behavioral considerations. I have so much love animals that I love pet sitting for anyone who will let me! I have an extremely flexible schedule due to the fact that I work a part time summer dog, so i will have plenty of time to play with your pets! I believe that When caring for pets, whether in my own home or a client's home, it's essential to prioritize their safety, build trust, and provide a suitable environment. I am a huge advocate for communication with the pet owner, I love providing updates on their pet's well-being, behavior, and any notable events. I send pictures throughout the day and make sure they get plenty of play time!


19. Tatum P.
About: Hi there! <3 I’m Tatum, and I’m super pumped to be a sitter since I’m in college and miss my pets! I have had animals all my life and have been trusted to take care of my two kitties and dogs since I was 10. My dad was out of town often growing up, so I have always been the one to care for them. I also was a sitter for dogs, cats, bunnies, and reptiles back home, so I feel confident in my abilities to care for your babies!! I have class from 3-5 on Monday and Wednesday, and I am not available on Tuesdays. Aside from that obligation, I am still available to walk, board, or check in on your animal at any time. In a client’s home, with their pet, I will be committed to taking them outside often, playing, grooming, feeding, hydrating, and loving on them. I adore spending time with animals so I will be sure to give your pet all the attention needed to thrive!
