14. Abbey Y.
About: I’ve cared for cats and dogs my entire life. I began pet sitting for friends and family in middle school - everything from walks, feeding, bathing, and giving various medications. I love animals of all kinds and am very passionate about them! Outside of pet sitting and dog walking I work as a receptionist from 8:30am-5 or 6pm four days a week and work as a bartender on Sunday mornings. It may seem like I have a pretty full schedule but I always make time to play with your pups or kitties! While caring for your baby I will treat them as my own! I’m very diligent about following any care instructions left for me and keeping your pet comfortable. I’m currently unable to watch pets in my home due to living in an apartment, but I’m more than happy to do multiple check-ins through the day and spend a few hours in your home giving your pets all the love!
15. Mary N.
“Thank you Mary for your help on Saturday!”
16. Amanda R.

17. Liam C.
“Liam took great care of my cat I was away in a weekend trip! He gave my cat lots of playtime and attention, he was on time each day, and followed the instructions I left exactly. Couldn’t be happier with the care Liam provided my cat and I’d highly recommend him!”
18. Danielle P.

20. Caleb S.
“Jenna S I am writing to introduce my husband, Caleb Sakel. As an avid dog lover and dedicated caregiver, he has always had a special bond with our own dogs, ensuring they receive the best attention, care, and love they deserve. For the past 10 years, Caleb has made it a daily routine to individually walk our 3 morkies Louie, Logan, and Lilly for at least 15 minutes each everyday, engaging with them, providing exercise, and nurturing their well-being. His patience and understanding of canine behavior allows him to connect with dogs of all temperaments, making him an ideal fit to watch and take care of your fur babies.
