“We could not be happier with the service that Megan provided. My cats love her and so do we! I have complete faith in Megan and we will be booking her to watch our cats again.”

About: I have had dogs since I was 7 years old. I’ve had big dogs and little dogs. I currently have 2 dogs of my own and I foster through Cross Your Paws Rescue. I love dogs more than most people. I have dog sat in my own house as well as family and friends homes. I promise to care for your dog(s) as if they were my own! I currently work full time but my husband works from home so someone is almost always at home with the dogs. When we aren’t home, it’s only for dinner or a quick grocery run. We don’t like leaving our dogs for more than a couple hours. I have a fenced in back yard and 2 dogs that love to play! I also sometimes have foster dogs in my home but they are always fully vaccinated and spayed/neutered and always are dog friendly.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs of every kind since I was about 10 years old. They always seem to love me and I love them as well. I also have experience in training as well I’m available all the time as I’m unemployed at the moment. I have plenty of time to spend time and care for pets. I have a dog of my own and he was the sweetest. He gets along with other dogs well I can easily create a dog if needed. But I do have another dog in the home. He is very sweet and gets along with other animals very well.
“Jocelyn was fantastic with our 2 dogs and housesitting. It was the first time we had someone other than family stay at our home with our dogs, so we were a little concerned how everything would go. Jocelyn was very reassuring with her updates and pics of our pups. It was a good experience and we hope that Jocelyn will be available for our next vacation. We highly recommend her!”
“Kimberly did an outstanding job taking care of my dog Koko while I was away. Koko loved her company and I came home to find him happy and relaxed. She followed his routine walks and feedings, just as I had asked her. She communicated with me often and sent me pictures. I couldn't have found a better pet sitter.”

“Kristie is a True Professional ! I'm always a little apprehensive when I have to leave my pups for a Business trip, knowing that Kristie is taking care of them alleviates all my worries....you can tell she loves dogs and my pups have really seemed to taken to her!”

“Isabella was amazing!!! She was so sweet and my animals took to her right away. I have 2 dogs and 3 cats and the cats usually hide when people come over but after the first hour she was there I got a picture of the cats hanging out which says a lot! She sent pictures of everyone and kept me updated on when she was leaving and coming back. I highly recommend her!!! Her love for animals shows so much and coming from a crazy dog mom I would hire her again in a heartbeat.”

“Elisabeth was so wonderful! I needed her for one night of dog/house sitting and she was able to accommodate last minute, was prompt, responsive, and sent plenty of pics. She’s not only responsible but a dog lover at heart and genuinely cared to take the best care of my fur baby :)”

About: Grew up with different types of dogs from a naughty Cocker Spaniel, high energy mut, and a lap dog Great Dane that had puppies I've dealt with different dogs my entire life so I'm not afraid to adapt to each dog and what they need. Currently between jobs so I have plenty of time to spend in playtime or downtime. From 8am-6pm is preferable but outside that time frame is not a deal breaker. Weekdays and weekends are open for me. I can play outside and walk with small or big dogs. I have no mobility issues so high energy dogs are no problem. I spend time indoors if that's preferable.
“Taylor did an amazing job! She was so good with my dog and my elderly mother. I was thankful for her help and felt confident everything was taken care of at home while I was away.”

About: I currently have an orange tabby named Milo and an orange Maine coon mixed cat named Buttercup and a hamster named Cheese puff. I’ve taken care of animals when I was little up till now , I also fostered cats and animals even as far as raccoon babies I saved and let into the wild when they got older my neighbors and friends have always came to me about watching their pets if they went away, Im a very trust worthy down to earth person I consider myself. I have a huge passion for animals they deserve the world. You won’t regret booking with me 🐈🐶💕 I have free time within my profession. I don’t have any children just my cats so I would enjoy taking care of animals for you I live in a quiet, clean fenced in yard home . I have lots of space for your animal to relax in comfort, and play.
About: I’ve had dogs from a very young age and have been taking of my own for many years. I have been currently work at a Daycare/Boadring Kennel for a few months now. I’ve also been taking care of a family friends dog whenever needed. I would say I’m very good with connecting with people’s dog, and I love all dogs I encounter. I am also majoring in Pre-Vet in hopes to become a Veterinarian so I’m trying to get as much experience as possible! Anything you need from me, I will be there! I’m currently working part time at a Daycare/Kennel, my schedule is a bit inconsistent but I do know exactly what days I work for the whole month and if I ever need to take off to better fit your time frame, I am able to. The only thing I ask is to let me know in advanced! I am very gentle with my pets and other peoples pet. Your wish is my command! I am an athletic person myself so I do enjoy playing with my dogs, and my clients dogs as much as I can. I will be the best fit for whatever you and your dog needs!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats for different family members and friends. Your animals would get plenty of attention and love with me. I wake up at 6 am. My week days vary from having class from 9-11 MWF, Tuesday at 2, and Thursday at 11. I live off campus about 3 minutes away, so I can easily check in/take out the pets. I do not have a fenced in yard, but there is plenty of grass and a park within walking distance. I am more comfortable walking with a leash unless there is a fenced in yard. My apartment has 1 roommate and plenty of space for dogs/cats to roam or lay down.
“Jolene was amazing. She took care of my Kilo plus my chickens and fish. She even did some dishes for me. I can't thank her enough for all the help. Thank you so much. I will be rebooking her in the future.”
