“I was very happy with Hope. She communicated and took photos on every visit. My buddy was very relaxed and happy around Hope. I will use Hope again in the future and would fully recommend her.”
“Amy was great!! This was my first time going away since I got the kittens shortly after lockdown started. They’re a year old and had never known me to be gone longer than half a day. I was worried about how they’d handle me being gone for over a week, but Amy took good care of them and they adapted quickly and went to her for attention. Her updates made it much easier for me to be away!”
“Couldn’t be happier! She took such good care of my boys! I think they really would not have minded me being gone longer. Will definitely be asking her to sit for them again. She was great! Thank you so much!”
About: Most familiar with cat care all the way from little kittens to senior cats. I do dog walks and dropin visits on the Wag app and have a perfect 5 star rating for every job I have done and am looking to expand my clientele here. I absolutely love being able to care for pets and see how happy they are when we go for walks or play fetch. I also dogsit my family's golden doodle who is learning tricks and has anxiety around people. I have a part time job and do contract work on my own schedule so I can fit pet care around my current schedule easily. I intend your home space to be the same as you left it when you return from your trip with a happy pet waiting for you.
About: I have the freedom to go anywhere needed with the ability to drive. I can also take care of the pets special needs such as giving medicine. I enjoy walking and playing. My little dog has a big dog attitude, so when she gets aggressive I know how to handle her, and keep a safe distance not letting anyone get hurt. I can take care of pets anytime of the week when needed, though I do have an online college class Monday through Thursday that's from 1-3:50pm. I can take it anywhere since I have a laptop and tablet to work with. I will have that schedule until June 26th. I have a fenced in backyard, and a small dog that goes through the doggy door. I am always available to open the door to let your pet out at anytime. I walk my dog around the neighborhood 3 or more times around the week at least.
“Kylie was wonderful with our dogs! They loved her and are happy to see her! I was nervous about leaving them for a week, especially with my older dog being on a demanding medicine, but as soon as I met her I was instantly reassured and far more comfortable! I cannot recommend her enough! We get pictures and updates as we ask for them and as an emotionally attached Fur Mom, that’s exactly what I need when I’m away from my babies. THANK YOU, KYLIE! ♥️”

About: I’ve owned dogs my entire life and have raised my 13 year old dachshund and 7 year old Great Dane! I have babysat pets for my friends and family for years as well! I love all animals! I currently travel the states with my husband for his job. I am free all hours of the week. I can check on your pets or simply walk them for you!

I never let the pets out of my sight and follow all pet instructions carefully. My 13 year old dog is on several medications, so I am very particular about how someone else takes care of her. I would never want my clients to worry that their pets are not being taken care of.
