“Adrianna went above and beyond helping with our dogs. We were out of town for the holiday weekend and one of our dogs was ill. She did everything in her power to get her to eat and feel comfortable until we could pick her up. I’m so impressed by her patience and caring. I would highly recommend her to anyone!”

“Raquel did a great job. I really appreciate her putting our Chewey order away too. (Always seems to come when I am gone.) She checked w/ me when she had questions and gained the trust of our timid kitty.”

“Josie and Michael are great! Mochi is happy to see them every time and I feel in peace knowing my boy is being taken care of! They are always on time and take good care of my boy!”

“Alyssa was great! I so appreciate leaving for the day & knowing my furbabies would be well cared for and loved! The photos were awesome, I shared with my friend on the trip.”

“Madison was incredible with our kitties! She communicated extremely well every day. She helped problem solve eating issues with one of our cats and offered suggestions for our energy filled, feisty kitten. Highly recommend!!”

“"Kristin was absolutely wonderful with our feline family members! We wholeheartedly recommend her for your kitties. She was consistently punctual for feedings and provided engaging, quality playtime. We especially appreciated the daily updates with photos and feedback – her attention to detail truly made all the difference!"”

“Valeria did great letting my dogs out during the week. She was especially patient with my anxious dog that is scared of strangers. She was very communicative and I would not hesitate to hire her again.”

About: I have taken care of dogs ever since I was a child. I am new to the area and would love to have some canine warmth in my life. Currently missing my dogs who live with my parents. One is a pure bred border terrier, Sadie, and the other is a mutt from the pound, Charlie. I moved to the area for graduate school. I have classes throughout the week and would be able to care for pets before and after classes. I have another part-time gig as a soccer trainer, which doesn't take up more than 2-3 hours a day. I live in an apartment with a dog park. There are also trails around my complex. I do not have anything like crates or cages in my unit for dogs.
About: I love pet! and I have been spending my life with them since I was young. I have dogs as my pet now and I used to pet cats before, so I don't mind taking care of cats :) I've been with puppies, aging dogs, and disabled dogs. I like teaching some tricks for them! My dogs know how to roll, wait, speak, lay down, and give a hand :D I love to see them well-groomed! so If you want me to make them smell good, I would love to take a bath for them. If your dogs are energetic, I don't mind taking them to do activities, such as running. If your dogs stay overnight with me, I would use them as my bear lol
About: I have had multiple dogs of all sizes from as far back as I can remember! Since I was 10, I was in charge of the coon dog puppies we had every spring and learned the ins and outs of dog care. I currently have a fox red lab and Goldador who are my whole world! I have taken care of dogs from puppies to seniors and know how to administer oral medication, and willing to learn if anything else needs done! I am a teacher so on breaks I have plenty of time to take care of your fur babies! During the school year, I am available on weeknights and any time on the weekends. I have a half fenced in yard but I have dog tie cables and leashes to keep your fur baby safe. I will also keep an eye on them the entire time we are outside. I have my own friendly dogs to keep yours plenty of company! I also have plenty of toys, blankets, and extra crates for any dogs in my care. We are also very pet friendly so they will be treated as our own and get free reign of the “dog couch” 😊
About: I’ve been around and taken care of animals since I was 8 years old! I grew up with as many as 4 dogs and 5 cats at once! I’m a preschool teacher looking to have a fun side gig; taking care of your pet would make my week so much more fun. Hope to hear from you soon! I have 3 cats in my apartment currently and they are all my little babies! They will sometimes get to go out on balcony with supervision and one of our cats likes to go outside for walks!
About: I managed a pet store for 7 years. Handling dogs helping a groomer. I checked them in for appointments and checked them out for pick ups. Depends on what is needed. I work part time. I also work around my bookings. I’m very flexible. When I dog sit I make it all about the dog and treat them as if they are children. I prefer your home. I care for them by whatever directions or schedule you prefer if there on a routine or not. I love your dogs as if they were mine.

“Delana is always great with our pups and I never have to worry! Our nervous dog who barks at everyone even loves her. And she always spends extra time playing with them and loving them.”
“Victoria will always be our go to for our girls if she’s available! This is our second time having her watch them, and we have come home to extremely happy dogs both times (which is what matters most). She goes the extra mile when it comes to getting tons of pictures, having great communication, and making sure our girls feel loved while we are gone.”

“Absolutely Fantastic!!!! I can’t say enough about the professionalism, sincerity, and care this father daughter team gave out Jack. He is older and always has issues (separation anxiety). He was so happy and energetic when we got home. Usually takes days for him to recover! Highly Recommend!!! Will be a return customer next time we need a sitter for our buddy.”
