Amy was great! She worked well with 2 senior dogs, fish, and pill bugs! She was dependable, and communicated well about any questions she had. I will definitely use her again, and recommend her without hesitation,

About: I have raised dogs (and other pets)ever since I was little, growing up on a farm helped with that. My 3 chihuahuas are my life, since my children have their own children now. I promise to run, play, bathe, love, and protect each pet like they were my own. There is no better companion than a special four legged family member. I love treating pets with the utmost care and respect. My availability is open. I am a dog lover. Always have been and always will be a dog lover. I prefer to be around pets of all kinds over humans. Pets have so much more to offer. They only want your love and good attention. That is what they will receive with me. Thank You

2nd time checked on Elle for me! I can tell from Elle's facial expressions, that she has really warmed up to Misty in such a short time. Definitely see what she can do if you need someone to check on your furry kids!

Andrea is great from our first conversation we immediately felt comfortable leaving our babies in her care. Our pets take a while to warm up to people but so we were happy to be surprised that they were playing with Andrea, they could just tell she loved them very much ❤️ We would 100% recommend Andrea and our pets can’t wait to see her again.

About: Growing up in the country I have had about every animal. It has taught me from an early age responsibility, nurturing, & experience in caring for pets. I am a nurse 20 years+ in the ER/trauma field. There are many similarities. I am walking & providing care for dogs because sometimes I love working with dogs a little more than working with people 😉 “Dogs do speak, but only to those who know how to listen“ My schedule is flexible ! If I’m not dog walking I volunteer at shelters and work on my barn getting ready for my next horse. I am insured. This is an awesome hobby in carrying out something I love doing. I took a certification course in pet psychology. Common sense along with knowledge such as obedience & safety basics while giving your dog great exercise is my priority.

Madison was excellent. I was a bit nervous as Rascal just began some medications a couple weeks before and we haven't needed pet sitters before, but Madison calmed my nerves and walked me through all the steps she takes as a sitter which was so fantastic. She communicated with us, provided great updates, and Rascal really did well with someone else caring for him. He can be stubborn when eating and she was very patient with him!! Highly recommend.

About: I have experience with a variety of breeds of dogs. I have owned dogs that are super high maintenance, dogs that love to lounge, anxiety ridden dogs, and dogs that are on the spicy side. I understand the different cues of dogs and how to read their body language. I have experience in walking multiple dogs. I also have experience in training dogs. I trained my Shetland Sheepdog for 4H and we made it to the state fair. I also taught him many silly tricks. I can be a professional fetch player or a professional cuddler, whichever your dog prefers. I can also just be a treat giver if your dog prefers space. I am currently working part time as a server, but my schedule is very flexible. I am a recently graduated college student, with the hopes of going to graduate school in the coming semester. Animal trust is very important to me. It is important that I earn you and your animals trust, and we can grow to be best friends or acquaintances if your animal is not into that. I hope to make your time away from your animal as easy as possible.

About: I own several animals which include cats, dogs, and a leopard gecko. I love animals, and I am good with feeding on time, bathroom breaks on time, and I love to spend quality time with animals! I am good with puppy and kitten care as well. I am a house cleaner as well, so it tends to mix in with the pet care. I am consistently taking care of myself, my house, and my animals. I walk my dog every day, I feed all of my animals at the same time every day, I keep regular vet appointments, and all of my animals are up to date on their vaccines and spay/neutering.

About: I love my dog (10years; Hiro) and I will treat yours as my own. From 24/7 all around care and attention: Diet, exercise, interactive play, traveling included, bathing/grooming, and medical care. All injuries are researched and attended too with remedies at home and if required, vet visit. Vet visit only with consent, if required. Contact me as needed, messaging/pictures will be provided. Food, potty needs, bedding/crate is taken care of. Advised: if special needs food/allergy/attention, please bring what your animal needs with them, extra charges will apply (if I have to go to the store, I will have a receipt) Daily. Hiro follows me everywhere. Hiro is my own dog, he’s a golden retriever mix with Great Pyrenees, he’s picky about when he eats his own food. I expect your dog and or cat will be different and have its own personality. As for how your animal fits into my daily will depend on how it goes. Most animals love me, knock on wood. I will keep you posted the whole time. The first time I had Hiro boarded I requested a video. It’s understandable. Your pets are like children. Crate training and potty training provided, if needed. Will need dog paddings. I love my dog and I will love yours as my own, depending on what your dog needs, we can manage and arrange things.
