1. Joshua JM W.
“He did a fantastic job with a very difficult rescue doberman. My dog is particular about humans and has some serious trust issues, but John-Michael easily worked with her and helped put me at ease. My dog did great with him and it was obvious she was well taken care of while I was away. He was very communicative, took good care my dog and my house. I will definitely hire him again.”
2. Selena I.
“I have several high praises to share about how Selena cares for our animal companions. The first one being that she is an animal lover herself with her posse of three fur babies which speaks to the practice of care and compassion she has when having cared for the furry members of our family. She is considerate of time frames for feeding and toileting habits as well as medical care needs that were required. During moments of silly mishaps she made sure to thoroughly clean up as well as provide updates on unexpected happenings. She made sure to spend considerate amounts of time talking and playing with both our German Shepards. There is so much more to be said about how knowledgeable and caring she has been with the additional members of our family but I will conclude with it is best to reach out to her with your queries.”
3. Sidney A.
“Sidney was a HUGE help. We needed a house sitter last minute and she responded quickly and was willing to do a meet and greet in advance for our peace of mind. We were out of state so it was very important we had updates and communication. Sidney went above and beyond to provide photos, videos and constant reassurance of how things were going. She respected our house rules and asked for permission before anything. We appreciated her greatly and are now rebooking her moving forward🤗”

16. Sarah R.
About: I’ve had and taken care of dogs since I was a little kid and always enjoy being around dogs. My favorite part is to run around and play with dogs, but I also enjoy walking dogs as it gives me time to relax and clear my mind. I have lots of free time while waiting for work calls, I would love to fill that time caring for and playing with your animals. I will give any medication your pets may need, love and care for them as if they were my own and would enjoy taking them on walks when needed.
