1. Jennifer D.
“Jen has watched my yellow lab Belgium while I was on vacation and gave her the best care ever. Took her on walks daily and made sure she was given her glucosamine pill and dinner at the same time each day. It’s a good feeling when you can enjoy yourself on vacation or just being able to have a good piece of mind while you are at work knowing that your pet, aka family member, is receiving the best care.”

“Andrea is doing wonderfully with our dog Bear. Bears a little shy around new people but she took right to Andrea and is excited every time she comes to our home. Andrea is also incredibly flexible and a joy to work with. Highly recommend.”

“Zoe has been taking care of our GSD, Milo and elderly Labrador, Martha, for years! She is able to handle Milo's high drive and energy really well, and she doses and mixes Martha's medication + supplements with her food every day. I'm so glad that I've found someone who I can trust with my babies who has always been reliable and trustworthy.”

About: Hi there, my name is Liv. I am an attentive and caring pet & home sitter. Growing up,we had several dogs and cats and I loved caring for them from a young age. As an adult, I’ve had several pets of my own which include both dogs and cats. I have a 3 yo pug named Luna, who is very friendly to all humans and animals, including cats. She can be quite social but also knows when to take a back seat and give space. I’m excited to meet your pets and get to know/ take care of them. I speak English, Spanish and West African Krio. Please feel free to reach out with any questions! I can care for pets including drop-ins and walks. My schedule is quite flexible, as I work from home. I’m available for overnight as well. I have a fenced in backyard. I also have a beautiful and safe neighborhood to take long walks in. There are several parks nearby. My home is child-free and safe for animals, including their own couch :)

9. Twanakay T.
About: Hello, My name Twanakay T., and I am 32 years old. While I don't currently have any pets of my own besides my fish tank, I grew up in a household with cats and dogs, so I have plenty of experience caring for animals. I had a cat named Jenny who lived with me from childhood until I was 18, and my father has a dog named Kingston. He can be quite a handful, but we are always patient with him, and I will bring that same patience to caring for your pets. I’ve also had a variety of pets over the years, including a rat I bought on a whim and a bunny who was quite elusive! I am open to learning exactly how you would like your pets to be cared for, so please let me know your preferences and schedule, and I will do my best to adhere to them. Thank you for considering me! Best regards, Twanakay Thompson I work in a hybrid format, I work from home from Monday and Tuesday. On Wednesday to Friday, I work half days in the office. Please let me know if this aligns with your needs, and I would be happy to accommodate any specific requests regarding pet care during those times. Thank you! here is how how I approach pet care: 1. **Familiarization**: I take the time to get to know your pets and their specific needs, routines, and preferences. 2. **Environment**: I ensure that the environment is safe and comfortable for the pets. 3. **Exercise and Play**: Regular playtime and exercise are essential for pet health. 4. **Routine Maintenance**: I follow a consistent routine, including feeding times, bathroom breaks, and any grooming sessions, to help keep the pets relaxed and happy. 5. **Monitoring Health**: I keep an eye on their behavior, appetite, and overall health. If I notice anything unusual, I'm prepared to contact you or a veterinarian if necessary. 6. **Communication**: I provide regular updates so you can stay informed about your pets’ well-being while you’re away. This can include text messages, photos, or videos. 7. **Bonding**: Building a trusting relationship with your pets is crucial, so I always approach them gently and positively to help them feel secure and loved. If you have any specific preferences or additional guidelines for how you'd like your pets cared for, please let me know! Thank you for considering my services! Best regards, Twanakay T.

11. Donte B.
About: Hey 👋 I'm Donte Boyer, a professional dog trainer in Delaware County and a proud father of two girls. #TeamGirlDad. I became a dog trainer in 2019 after I adopted my dog Legend. Legend was surrendered by a owner who thought he couldn’t be trained. After training him it made me want to help other dog owners who may have the same issue so we can keep dogs out of the shelters. I use positive reinforcement training methods that are effective and fun for both dogs and their owners. I'm experienced with all types of dog breeds, from small to large, and I'm passionate about helping dogs and their owners live happy and loving lives together. I'm also a member of the Association of Professional Dog Trainers Association and I'm always looking for ways to improve my skills and knowledge. In five years I would love to open up my own dog training & boarding facility. If you're looking for a dog trainer who can help you train your dog to be well-behaved and obedient, I'm the trainer for you. You can follow me on socials @mambagk or visit my website www.mambagk. com 🐶💚 I’m all dogs 24/7 so I will be able to take care of your pup any time you may need me. This is what I do. I have a fenced yard as well as a enclosed deck the dogs will have access to. I also have crates on each level of the house as well as play areas so the dogs can be separated if needed.

14. Melissa N.
“Melissa is an amazing dog walker. I called her on short notice when a last-minute glitch came up; she offered to video call so we could expedite the meet and greet process. She and AJ hit it off right away, and she communicated during the entire process. I couldn’t recommend her highly enough!”
15. Jonas & Cartier D.
“Jonas and Cartier are amazing with our 6 month old pitty! Their first day our dog had a medical emergency and they waited by his side until I got home even though it was past their scheduled time. The time and love they give to our puppy means the world to me and I can tell they truly care.”

19. Marcus F.
About: Various members of my family, not including my next door neighbor, would call on me ever since high school for their dogs. I also took care of my sisters various cats throughout the years. I'm currently looking to make some more money in my spare time and offering pet care services is one solution to that. So pet care fits pretty well into my current schedule. Depending on how long they stay, I will make sure that the animals in my care are happy, entertained, well fed, exercised, and given plenty of potty breaks.
