Charlie was absolutely amazing with Aloha. From the moment we left, we felt completely comfortable knowing she was in such good hands, and every update made us feel even better. Charlie was dependable, communicative, kind, and clearly so caring with her. Honestly, we started joking that Aloha might not even want us to come back because she loved Charlie so much. We could not recommend her more highly and would absolutely book with her again.

She was so kind and responsive, even with a last-minute request. I felt really comfortable trusting her with everything, and she took excellent care — she even tidied up my place a bit, which was such a thoughtful touch.

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life! When I was a kid my best friend was my chocolate lab Colby, and when I got older my family also got a Cacapoo who is 15 years old today! I have experience dog sitting from one to three dogs at a time and absolutely love every dog I meet. I currently work remotely and am flexible during the week! I love dogs so much and am happy to spend my free time pet sitting ! I live in an apartment with my friend and we both love dogs! Whether it’s just a cute little pet to cuddle with on the couch or to go on walks with, I love having a little companion!

About: I’ve grown up around animals and currently have pets of my own, so I understand how important it is to have someone trustworthy caring for them. I have experience caring for both dogs and cats through helping friends, neighbors, and family members with walking, feeding, playtime, litter box cleaning, and overnight care. I’m patient, dependable, and attentive to each pet’s unique personality and needs, and I always make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while their owners are away. I currently attend the University of Miami, but all of my classes are online so I have completely open availability. I’m looking for something to fill my time with something that I love which includes pets and caring for others loved ones! I always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for in both my home and my client’s home. I pay close attention to each pet’s routine, feeding schedule, exercise needs, and personality to help them feel as stress-free as possible while their owner is away. I’m responsible, clean, and communicative, and I will always provide updates and photos for peace of mind. Since I have pets of my own, I understand how important trust and safety are when leaving your pets in someone else’s care.

About: Caring for animals has always been a part of my life. I actually started my first little ‘pet sitting business’ as a kid, helping neighbors with their dogs and pets. Since then, I’ve always had dogs of my own and understand the responsibility and love that comes with it. I’m currently a proud dog mom to a 6-year-old Pomeranian, so I know how important it is to find someone you truly trust. I treat every pet like family and make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for. I currently work part time, in the evenings, so I have plenty of time to take care of your pups every day until 4:30pm. I am available 7 days a week. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I always prioritize their routine, safety, and comfort. I take time to understand each pet’s specific needs, including feeding schedules, walking preferences, and any special instructions. For walks, I ensure dogs are securely leashed at all times, avoid unsafe situations or overly crowded areas, and stay attentive to their behavior and surroundings. During drop-in visits, I make sure pets are fed, have fresh water, and get plenty of attention, playtime, and care. I’m very respectful of clients’ homes and always make sure doors are locked, spaces are left clean, and pets are safely settled before I leave. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners feel confident and at ease while they’re away. I am happy to followed detailed instructions and accommodate any special requests!

About: I studied vet med at Iowa State University and have vast experience working at animal shelters. I’ve been trained in pet care, doggy heimlichs and administration of medications. Grew UP with dogs all my life, my mini schnauzer in PR has epilepsy and I know that making sure shes in good hands is always top priority. Your dog(s) will be treated like my own when with me. I’m currently working from home with flexible hours. I’m able to walk your dog(s) as many times as needed throughout the day and whatever distance needed. Theres a beautiful park by where I live that has a fenced in yard that I can also take them to play in, if agreed upon (and if your dog is not reactive since this is a public park and i want to ensure their safety). During their stay your pet(s) will be allowed in the living room and bedroom of the apartment. They can sleep on or off my bed or couch, whatever they feel the most comfortable in. And if they need extra care or attention to ease any separation anxiety or stress I’ll be there. You will be receiving as many pictures, videos or updates as you would like. If I’m walking your dog they will always be on leash and completely supervised.

Jennalynn was awesome with Pepper. She is very knowledgeable and has a lot of experience with rescue dogs which is hard to find. I have a fearful reactive dog I recently adopted, so I had to give her 100 details about her background. Her communication to come up with an intro plan made things so much easier. I highly recommend Jennalynn for all dog needs!
