Sam is the BEST! She watched our 3 dogs while we were on vacation for 10 days. She’s a natural with animals, they all immediately loved her. She was so calm and confident that she would be fine with the 3 of them and she was. She kept in touch with us while we were away, sent photos and made us feel so comfortable. Upon return home the house was neat and clean, and all of the dogs were clearly loved and spoiled while we were away. We quickly booked her for our next trip!

Isaac is an excellent pet caregiver- especially with our special needs dog! He pays great attention to our two Frenchie's and they always love when he comes to visit. Isaac is very responsible and attentive to our dog's needs. Our one dog requires medication multiple times a day as well as regular cleaning of his ears and tail. When I return from trips, it is like I was home and caring for my dogs rather than a caregiver. I cannot say enough good things about Isaac's pet care and I trust him fully with my two French bulldogs.

We are so grateful for Abby! She has a very flexible schedule and is able to walk Sadie when we need. She is very communicative and lets us know when she is on the way and leaving with any other updates from the walk. The first week we booked her, Sadie wasn’t feeling well and took good care of her and kept us updated on how she was doing! It made us feel much better about leaving her at home. Not to mention Abby is great with Sadie! We will definitely book walks with her again! Thank you Abby!

Emily has cared for my pets on several occasions. We have a large Golden Doodle and two cats. She takes our dog on walks and feeds him according to our instructions. She is very loving with all of our pets and when she spends the night, she allows our dog to sleep with her. He sleeps with us so we are fine with this. She is very responsible and spends a lot of quality time with our pets. I have recommended her to several friends and she has watched their pets on numerous occasions when they are on vacation or out of town. She sends photos and videos several times so we don't miss them as much and it gives us peace of mind while we are away. I highly recommend Emily as a pet caregiver.

About: I’ve always lived with cats and dogs and have always had a special place in my heart for all animals. I graduated in veterinary assistance in 2019 and work at an animal hospital! I currently work almost 10 hour days so if your pup is not OK being alone that long I might not be a good fit for them! I would love to pet sit on the side as well as take any pet for walks! I see your pet as family and will treat them as so, making sure they don’t go hungry, cold or lonely! I have volunteered at my local shelter walking and helping with dogs and cats as well. I can even simply check in on any reptiles and smaller furry friends like hamsters and bunnies as well! I have experience with fur babies who have anxiety, cancer, joint problems, seizures and much more, with that being said I am experienced in having to give medications and pay extra close attention! Please don’t hesitate to contact me! I would love to meet your fur baby!!! ❤️
