About: I have a ton of experience working with animals from, doggy daycare, boarding, and even working in emergency care as a runner who transported emergency patients to the ER and helped assist the with other tasks. I am comfortable administering medication and working with dogs who need extra love! I have a dog and cat of my own. I am always with them. I have made my whole working life based around animals. They are my life. I would treat any pet in my home like my own. They would get regular potty breaks, meals and snacks if allowed! Also of course lots of pets.

“Amy was wonderful taking care of our rabbit for an entire week. She gave her attention and love. She payed special attention to her needs and made sure she got exercise time, socialization and plenty to eat and drink. She went above and beyond our expectations! She vacuumed up cardboard and rabbit hair and she even got our mail and put our trash out on trash day! She’s amazing! We love her and will definitely be using her again. ?”


“Alyssa was a life saver!!!! Alyssa was so kind and the most consistently communicative person I have ever met! I literally felt the whole time like I was right there with my dog! She communicated better than anyone I’ve ever met truly she is amazing. I was never worried the whole time she was watching my baby! Her bio is so accurate she will truly be your dogs best friend !! Coming from someone who has a slightly reactive dog who doesn’t love everyone she meets, my dog was IN LOVE with Alyssa. She loved her from the moment she met her. I was so incredibly impressed by not only her communication skills but her ability to connect with my dog and make me feel still at home with her. I couldn’t recommend her more and can promise that I will be having her over again!!! Book Alyssa for your next get away you will not regret it. She is a 1000/10 all around.”

Gina D.
“Gina is extremely knowledgable when it comes to pet care! I always trusted her to watch my little papillon when i had been away. Its hard to find someone you can trust to take the best of care for your little furry friend but with Gina my heart and mind is always at ease. She is great with all kinds of animals and she knows a lot about their well being. She not only knows about how to be a good pet sitter, but knows in-depth how to take care of specific breeds due to her vast knowledge of animals. Because of this i always knew my pup was in good hands. I would recommend Gina 10 times over due to her dependability and genuine love of animals.”
