Will be using her again if I ever need care for my dogs!”

“Becky is awesome! She was graciously available last minute to walk my dogs and was on time, let them go at their normal pace and sent me pictures! Would highly recommend Becky to take care of your fur babies ?”
About: I’ve trained a puppy and a rescue dog who came from a rough background. My dear Gemma (pitbull mix) suffered from emotional and physical abuse when she was a puppy. Unfortunately, we recently lost my sweet Gemma girl to cancer. When we first got her she had a hard time trusting humans, but has always loved other dogs! After some training and lots of love and cuddles, she grew to love all humans! Training my girl Lola (mixed breed, in my profile pic) was a breeze. Lots of accidents and lots of patience! I started off training her how to use the “potty bell”, and followed with basic commands such as sit, stay, and lay. I love engaging the fur babies in activities that enrich their minds, while also incorporating lots of play. We’ll take multiple walks a day and sometimes take field trips to the dog park! At the moment I am completely free during the week. I will be available to watch your beloved pets any day of the week and they are always welcome to spend the night! I would also be able to board on weekends for your short getaways. I live in a pet friendly apartment complex with big fields outside for potty breaks. We’ll go for lots of walks and on days when the weather is nice we’ll hop in the car and head to the dog park!

17. Brianne B.
“Brianne is one of the most trustworthy and reliable people I know, and she is great with dogs. I have worked with her multiple times, and I'm always confident and comfortable leaving her in charge. Possibly the highest recommendation is that my dog Jax, who is skittish around all new people, fell in love with her the very first moment he met her and wanted to be as close to her as possible. Brianne cares for all pets as if they were her own!”

19. Isabella K.
“Izzy is the best pet sitter we could have ever asked for. She was a shift supervisor at the doggy daycare that my Cooper and Jolene went to. They both absolutely adore her. She always took excellent care of them at daycare and my home when she would sit while I was out of town. We moved to Texas over the summer and my pups miss her so much. Sometimes I find them on the bed in a guest room because it reminds them of her. Even when we say her name their ears perk up and their tails begin to wag. I would highly recommend Izzy as a pet/house-sitter. She’s amazing, trustworthy and loves your pets as if they were hers. She truly has a passion and huge heart for animals! Now, if only she would leave Iowa for Houston 😁🐶🐶”
