“Shatara was great with our pups! She was very comfortable with them and they enjoyed their time with her. You can definitely tell that she is an “animal person” and really cares about your pets.”
2. Izza R.
“Izza has watched my pup Zero many times. He is a senior husky/border collie so he can be a little much. Izza has always loved him like her own when she watches him. She has in-house pup sat for me and in her home as well. He loves visiting with her! She loves to take him for walks and out to dog parks too! She's great with him and he's always excited to see her when she comes. I highly recommend her!”

6. Morgan D.
About: I enjoy caring for and loving on your fur baby, on a regular schedule while you're working or as needed after a vet visit, operation, etc when they just need a little extra love. I have always owned and cared for animals, dogs, more than others. I worked at a vet clinic during college and can administor medication if needed. I'm happy to go for walks/jogs around the neighborhood or visit a park nearby, or stay home and play in the backyard or house depending on what your pup/pet needs. I am a middle school teacher, and would love to help exercise, play, and love on your fur baby(ies) while you are away or at work. I am happy to match your pets energy, and follow their lead to play, toss toys, exercise with them, or just pet and snuggle if he/she is low energy. I'll treat your pet as my own, and will clean, administer medication, brush, bath as requested.

“Mary L is my daughter. We have always had dogs when she was growing up. Kathy was always a favorite with our dogs. Since she reached adulthood Kathy has consistently had two or three dogs of her own. Kathy has a real love for all dogs and they love her back. Right now she has a large fenced backyard. If she boards dogs she treats them as members of her family. Kathy is a responsible, mature person and will take wonderful care of any dogs in her charge. I recommend her highly!”
8. Cheryl T.
“My wife of 23 years, Cheryl is an excellent caregiver to our pets. We have a beagle mix named Shelby and we adopted Shelby when she was 2 years old. She is currently 13 years old and is thriving. Cheryl walks Shelby daily, feeds her, and takes her to the groomer for baths. We both take her to the vet for regular checkups and vaccinations. Cheryl also cares for our grey cockatiel by feeding, cleaning her cage, and visiting the vet as needed. She also cares for our freshwater aquarium by helping to start the aquarium and feeding the fish. In summary, she loves caring for our pets and any pet in her care is in excellent hands.”
9. Richelle R.
“Richelle is an incredible dog mom to her own babies! And every time I’ve had the pleasure of watching her interact with my fur children, she makes me want to be an even better mom. She has so much patience and love to give, and she taught me the importance of trusting your pets. She has also spent extensive time learning training skills so do yourself a favor and leave your baby with Richelle so you get your baby back after some ample loving and maybe with a new skill or two!”
10. Isabelle B.
“Isabelle is a loving, responsible pet parent! She enjoys being around pets, she loves playing with them and taking them on walks or even just lounging around keeping them company as they also keep her company! No matter where it is, as long as she’s around pets it’s definitely her happy place!”

12. Angel Y.
About: Will provide all necessary care for your dogs needs. I’m married no children , have had pets all my life and I dog sit for my friends for years why not get paid for what I love to do. I had a cocker for 13 years, American Bulldog, and English Bulldog, current have a English Bulldog puppy. I am also in the medical field and will be able to handle emergencies if they happen. I don’t believe in animal cruelty and I feel sometimes people need to get out or have to run errands and the dogs shouldn’t have to be locked up when they can be loved on while the owners handle business. This is something I enjoy and not trying to get rich.

I’m able to give your pet the extra attention, because I work from home. I’m able to go on extra walks, play, and give your fur baby extra love throughout the day while you’re away. I have a very free and inviting home for everyone and every pet. Safety will always be my number one concern, so I will be sure to follow any given instructions and take extra precautions to ensure everyone’s safety.
15. Emily P.
About: I've looked after a lot of pets, including mine and both of my parents' dogs, and other who’ve trusted me to take care of them. I currently attend college and I can put the majority of my days each week towards pet care even after working a part time job. While caring for pets I tend to take inconsideration of every detail the client asks for or suggests about their pets personal needs and wants.
16. Ayonna A.
About: I've taken care of both my family's and neighbors pets since I was 13. I love learning their pet's personalities and adjust their care to it while implementing their owner's expectations for them! I can teach your pets tricks and transition them to using dog pads indoors! I am currently looking for a part time job so I am available from Sunday to Saturday 12am-12pm. If needed, I can take care of your pet for 2 days before you have to schedule again. My apartment complex has a large gated dog park for your dog to exercise safely. I also have a wide variety of dog and cat toys, dog pads, cat litter boxes, and pet food for all types of pets.
17. Antoinette C.
About: My family's first dog was 10 years old when I was born. I grew up with a dog, and I always had one throughout my entire childhood. I've had a pekingese, german shepherd, and two miniature schnauzers. I love dogs of all breeds and sizes, and I am dedicated to providing the best care for your pets the same way I would for mine. I'm currently working part-time, so I would be able to check in and let the dogs out before and after work. My schedule does fluctuate, so one day I could work from 12-8 or 3-11pm the next. My shifts are never longer than 8 hours, and are normally on the shorter side, so I would have plenty of time to walk them as well. When it comes to taking care of dogs, I operate on a pretty regular schedule. I let them out first thing in the morning. I fill their bowls while they're outside. I typically take my own dog on a morning walk or a walk after I get off work. I do not board dogs at my home because of my dog's age and the fact that she is easily frightened.
18. Lucilla E.
“I don't know what I would have done without Lucilla, I took an emergency trip right in the initial wave of COVID and she dropped in twice a day to take care of my boys. I had to extend the trip for almost a month and she didn't hesitate! I came home to happy, lazy cats and I've been using her ever since. Not only that, but when one of my cats went missing for almost two months, when she found out about it she told me she would ask around in our communities and a week later he turned up! Stinky, but happy and home. I don't think I would have gotten him back without her. THANK YOU!”
19. Jove M.
“I've had the pleasure of meeting Jovè and I was immediately impressed with how highly & intense her love + knowledge for animals was. She has loved and cared for my Sadie & Lola for quite some time now and I couldn't have picked a better person. I rescued Sadie in 2020 during the pandemic so she had little to none human interaction. I was always so worried about her because I was really all she knew, so I couldn't really leave her with anyone if needed. In Summer of 2021, I decided to began trying to socialize Sadie so I took her to Pet Smart, where I ran into Jovè. We were on the same aisle and I got pretty nervous about how Sadie would react to being that close to a stranger. Jovè of course smiled & complimented what a beautiful dog Sadie was; immediately following up with the question about saying Hi to her. I ensured Jovè that Sadie was very nervous but within a few moments, Sadie was cuddled up in Jovè's lap as she sat on the floor with her. Jovè's love & patience made Sadie feel so comfortable & safe right away. I was honestly shocked. Jovè & I began talking for another 10 to 15 minutes where to told me everything about her dog knowledge & history. Now, Jovè comes over every so often to visit Sadie & Lola, walk them, & even do drop visits when I'm away. I've never had a doubt in my mind that my babies aren't in good hands when with Jovè; her love for animals shines above all! Thank you Jovè, for being the loving person you are!”
20. Blake P.
“Blake is a kind, compassionate and sensitive young man. He has a deep love for animals, having both dogs and cats of his own and caring for a colony of stray cats. He will responsibly love and care for your pets as if they were his own. You can safely and happily entrust your beloved fur babies to him!”
