7. Nia G.
About: I have cared for many pets since I was very young. I am experienced with even medically needy animals. Animals are my passion. Their love is unconditional and so is mine for them. I work a flexible schedule so I can work most anything work. Long trips, short trips, regular schedule. You name it I’ll make it work. Working in clients home is preferred over using my own home. Helping your pet to feel comfortable is my main priority and keeping their environment consistent will help that.


8. Emma S.
About: I have been taking care of pets since I was 10. I grew up with multiple cats to care for and have been a dog owner for 11 years. I have experience with puppies/kittens, as well as seniors who may have medical needs. I am also capable of handling high energy pets and households with multiples. I do work full-time (M-F) but have a flexible schedule. I have time in the mornings, and after 5 during the weekdays to care for your pets, and times during the day. Most weekends are very open. I know all pet parents have different rules/expectations, so I am open and happy to follow your lead on how you would need things done. I have a senior dog who is used to no crate, taking full advantage of the couches and beds :) and enjoys moderate length walks. I have had him since he was a puppy, so I am able to provide long walks, exercise time outside and crating if need be.


9. Tamara D.

“Tammy has been a life saver for us more than once. When she can’t fit us in for a day care service, she still helps us out by doing a walk instead. We are always so happy with her services and accommodations!”


10. Connie P.
“Connie is someone who we know to be a kind, loving, knowledgeable pet caregiver. We know and trust her with our most precious pets. She is an exemplary person for pet care. We enthusiastically recommend her.”


11. Elisabeth G.

“My Carly always looked so happy on her walks with Elizabeth. Elizabeth was a great help while I was away on travel!!!”


12. Alisha L.

13. Nicole M.


“Nicole was so easy to work with! Very professional and asked good questions to ensure she had everything she needed to take great care of our pups. Will definitely use again :)”


14. Lydia R.
“Our dogs LOVE her, and she is very attentive and loving to our pups. She is prompt, flexible, friendly, has excellent communication and is overall a delight. I STRONGLY recommend her to anyone looking for a reliable and trustworthy person to walk or care for their fur babies.”


15. Samantha N.

“Samantha is fantastic with dogs, and dogs just love her. My husband and I own a Shih Tzu, and every time she visits us, even if it's a gathering with multiple people, she is always one of the first people our dog runs up to greet (almost always the first person)--he just adores her! She has watched our dog while we have gone out-of-town, and it's evident that he is well-cared for in our absence. As such, I have no doubt that she would be a perfect dog caregiver, as she is responsible, patient, organized, and just overall loves dogs!”




16. Devin G.
About: I have pretty open availability and do not travel that often. I have two small dogs that are playful and energetic. For as long as I can remember, dogs have been part of my life and have gotten me through anything that has ever happened to me. Bad or good. Dogs aren’t considered pets, they are family and I promise to treat your family member with the respect and love you would give yourself. I not only want to cuddle and play with your furry friend, but gain a bond. A friendship. My partner works from home as well. I would love to take any dog in my home while you are away, to either play with me or play with my very own bundles of energy, Coco and Brulee! Please let me know if I can help you out at any time! I do work M-F but have weekends off. My partner works from home and is home all day long. I do have a decent lunch and get off by 5 every day. I would feed your pups on your schedule. I take the time and energy needed to play, nourish and allow your dog to run if needed. Dogs are family and I intend on treating them this way.


17. Becky H.

“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 ?”


18. Cassandra M.
About: I have helped take care of my family dogs for as long as I can remember. I worked with a local pet sitter for ~3 years before deciding to venture out on my own, with that I am CPR certified and have experience with both puppies and senior dogs. I currently have a full time job M-F from 7am-2:30 pm. I am willing to do visits after work and could squeeze something in before work also. Weekends I would have more availability.. I will always keep pet on a leash, or make sure they are secured in a fenced in yard. Will kennel them when they are left alone if parents request.


19. Holly A.

“Holly was great with our dog and our sons dog too! Great communication”


20. Emma K.
About: I have had and cared for pets my entire life. Ever since I was 10, family and friends have always had me walk, feed, bathe and even train their pets. I am currently working part time and doing school online. I have a lot a free time to care for pets and would love to meet yours! I have a dog and 2 cats at home. I love to meet new pets and go for walks in new neighborhoods. I am very responsible and caring especially when it comes to animals!
