10. Cassandra B.


“Cassandra was willing to care for my cats on extremely short notice and we did not even get to do a meet and greet in advance. Nevertheless, she was immediately able to bond with my cats and asked insightful questions and was very careful to be sure they were getting the right amounts of food and supplements. From the expression on my cats faces in the photos she sent, I can tell that the cats absolutely love her. I can recommend her highly and hope she will be willing to help us again. I think she is a cat whisperer!”


11. Jess W.

“Jess was great with our 2 dogs and 2 cats. She visited them twice a day and took great care of them for a week while we were on vacation. She sent us messages and pictures for each visit. Our pets were very happy and well cared for when we returned. It was like we never left! Jess is very sweet and knows how to handle a very neurotic great dane who took a while to let her close. But she did and all went well. I would definitely ask Jess to come back for our next vacation.”

She knows how to get a dog to behave and relax without being harsh or abusive in any way. Kim has created a loving home for the dogs she has owned and has trained even the most stubborn dogs - Kim has even trained the neighbor's dogs to sit, stay, lay down, etc! Kim's dogs are her best friends and she treats them very, very well.”

17. Donovan T.
About: Able to take care of any pet no matter the size or age. Also able to take them out for anything they need or enjoy I do pet care on my off days from my job also can take care if needed on my work days and check on them during any breaks since I live very close to work I have a fenced area by my house that I walk the animals in also near a dog park if your dog enjoys them at all.


18. Jessica Y.
“Jess came into me and my dog lives almost 4 years ago and has been nothing but a joy since. She never had a dog growing up, but she has taken to these dogs like her own and loves them with everything she has. My dog Boo-Boo for example, has a hard time adjusting to new people. But when he met her, he went right up to her and sat next to her with no problems. He loved her from the start. Jess loves these dogs like they are her children and will do anything for then/to protect them. They love her so much.”


19. Eva G.
“Eva is amazing! She cares for our dog Bo whenever we are out of town. She is trustworthy, reliable and goes above and beyond our expectations of a dog sitter. We never need to worry when Bo is in her care. We love Eva but more importantly, Bo loves Eva too!”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life and they’ve always been an important part of my family. I currently have a sweet pup named Pablo, an Australian Shepherd and Great Pyrenees mix, and I take great pride in caring for him. I’m very patient with dogs and understand that each one has their own unique personality and needs. Whether your dog is playful, shy, or needs extra care, I make sure they feel loved, comfortable, and safe. You can trust me to treat your dog just like my own, with all the attention, affection, and care they deserve. I have a consistent work schedule, allowing me to provide reliable care for your pup Monday through Friday from 3:30 PM to 10:00 PM, or as needed. I am also available at any time on weekends, ensuring flexibility to accommodate your needs. I have a fenced backyard with plenty of space for Pablo to run around safely. It's the perfect environment for your dog to enjoy outdoor time and play freely. I ensure that all pets in my care have a safe, secure, and comfortable space to explore.
