1. Kiara S.
“Kiara was great with my dog and cat! We were nervous leaving them, but she was great at communicating. Our animals soaked up her attention every visit and seemed to be happy while we were away. We will definitely reach out to her again!”
2. Amanda W.
“I have trusted Amanda with my two dogs for years. I have never met anyone who has quite as much love and respect for animals. It's very difficult for me to leave my little ones for extended periods of time but Amanda always makes me feel most comfortable. I know that in the time I leave my dogs with Amanda she will care for them as if they were her own. I would not trust anyone else with my dogs. ”

5. Elli R.
“Elli watched our two very needy (medically and emotionally) English Bulldogs for two days for us. They both require several medications at different times of the day and can be difficult to feed. She did a great job and I would highly recommend her.”

“Suzy C is a very caring person. My stayed with many times when I went out of town. I didn’t even worry about Pepper. She fed him and walked gave him some treats, water and a great deal of loving 🥰along with feeding him too. He knew when she came to our house. She was there caring for Pepper and me. I can’t say enough about how much Suzy will love your pet and help make your life that much easier and have worry free days.”

We’re so happy to have found him.”

15. Kayla L.
“I’ve known Kayla for 10+ years. She has always been a wonderful friend who would do anything for anyone. She’s taken on the role of dog mom with enthusiasm and heart. She’s a nurse by trade, which empowers her to do research to make decisions related to the care and keeping of her own dog, and I would anticipate that she would do the same for any dog in her care. She is very loving, friendly, ans cheerful always. Any dog in her care would be so lucky to have her looking out for them.”

20. Kelli K.
About: My family had a cat for about a year before I was born. I helped feed it and clean out its litter box. When he wanted to, I would play with him, but he wasn’t a super playful cat. A few years after he died, my family got 2 bluetick coonhound puppies. I trained both of them and I love the puppy stage! I also enjoy taking my dogs on walks. Both of my dogs are about 70lbs. They are a hunting breed, but we do not hunt them. However, they occasionally will lunge at things and bark. I am able to handle them when they get excited and neither of my dogs have ever gotten loose. I am confident in my ability to walk dogs of all breeds, and I can’t wait to meet your furry family members! I’m a college student at IUP and am hoping to make some cash on the side while going to school full time. Currently I’m available for any of the listed times on weekends. The first weekend of September is when my availability starts. I have had experience with both dogs and cats and am comfortable with all breeds and sizes of both cats and dogs. I live taking my dogs on walks, and am more than willing to walk your dog(s). I have trained both my dogs, and love working with puppies. I also love getting to play with cats whenever I get the chance.
