Emma was great with my cat and dog! She took the time to get to know them before she watched them, which made them and me more comfortable while I was away. Both my cat and my dog warmed up to her pretty quickly! I really appreciated the video and picture updates she sent throughout my trip, and she was great about cleaning up before she left. I would highly recommend Emma to watch your pets!

Heather was amazing! We will definitely be using her for all our future trips! She went above and beyond. One of our dogs got an ear infection right before we left and she was so great at giving her the antibiotic & it was all cleared up when we got home! Our dogs just adore her ❤️

About: Ive loved animals for as long as I remember. I also worked as a canine coach! Working along side pups daily and ensuring that their play was safe! I performed health checks as well as washes to pups! Provided fresh water and plenty of love! Just moved here from Florida and now I currently manage at your local Petsmart! I currently have open availability. Also, if you contact me a few weeks beforehand for sitting requiring me to stay in the home, I can gladly take off to come and watch your precious bean! Currently I can not work from home. Im interested in Long-term or ongoing care and any thing else! I have 1 furry friend currently, one passed away of old age at 17 years and required a lot of attention. I cared for his wounds, giving medication, etc. I have one other who will be 16. As an expierenced dog owner, I give my dogs their medications as needed, follow special dieting and so forth. I pay PLENTY attention to them as well. I have expierence of taking care of dogs of ANY age being Ive had these two since pups. I used to dog sit up North in New Jersey area and I absolutely loved it! I enjoy spending quality time with dogs whether it be playing outside, going for a walk, or just relaxing together. I do believe in getting your dog outside activity to keep them healthy and fit as well. I also accept any reasonable pay, not just what's on my profile. I have flexible schedule and Id be more than happy to try and work around this to provide a service both you and youre beloved pet will enjoy! I now have a corgi, who is an angel. An angel who requires LOTS of exercise. I let him run freely and take him on LONG walks to help tire him out as well as engaging in fun activities such as fetch!

About: I’ve worked in Animal Welfare for three years now, and currently work at the belleville area humane society. I see myself continuing down this path and would like to broaden my horizons. I’m looking into starting training as well in the future. I work with dogs and cats daily. I have nights off and don’t usually have other activities that occupy my nights. My off days are usually completely free. I live in a house currently and let my dogs out leashed. I don’t do any unsupervised activities. When I have other pets in my home/care I stay alert.

Lark stayed for a week at our home and was so caring of our furry baby Kevin. Kevin's not always predictable and they made good friends with loving belly rubs, etc. She shared pictured throughout the week. We will definitely be calling her back to see if she can stay again when we plan our next trip! Thank you so very much!

Megan was beyond marvelous with my Nali. She stepped in last minute and went above and beyond to make sure he was happy and comfortable, and made sure to share regular photos and updates. It was immediately clear how much she cares about animals, and making sure our anxious boy felt relaxed and safe around her. This was the first vacation where we truly didn’t worry about him, and that alone says everything. She even helped out with brushing and nail trims!! I couldn’t recommend her more highly!

About: I've had pets around me since I was a baby. I had dogs growing up, and I've been around them ever since. I've been around 20 pound dogs, to 120 pound dogs, nothing is too much or too little for me. Currently I don't have a job, but I am just looking around at dog walking agin. I am supposed to go into the service in about a month, so im trying to make some extra money before I ship off! In my house, I have a fenced in yard, that keeps my pitbull safe, and happy. I would love to be in someone’s house where they have a fenced in yard, but I know that’s not ideal for everyone. If they don’t that’s perfectly fine, we just take the fur baby out in a leash to be outside then!

Amazing service in Santa Fe. Abigail sat with Charley while we dined. Perfectly easy for us & Charley was secure & happy when we returned. He’s a young one so we didn’t trust him alone in the VRBO. Thank you, Abigail!

Emma was fantastic! Our dogs really enjoyed meeting her before our trip and she sent us pictures of the dogs while we were gone! She was so respectful of our house and the dogs were always so happy in the photo. Loved having her take care of our pack while we were gone.
