We contacted Veronica somewhat last minute due to evolving travel plans, and she was responsive and accommodating. Our plans changed a bit even after we had hired her, and she was able to adjust and take on some extra visits. We were very pleased with her work, her positive attitude, and the way she connected with our dog. She was consistent in checking in and sending us photos of Lily, which gave us confidence that all was well! We highly recommend Veronica as a quality, conscientious pet caretaker!

We couldn’t be any happier with the love and care Erica gave to our two dogs today. She sent lots of pictures, reviewed her visits, left a sweet card and brought them a toy each. We had no worries that they were looking bed and well cared for! I would highly recommend her!

About: I grew up taking care of my family dog and cats, and have cared for my own dogs and cats for the past 7 years. I have owned chickens since the beginning of 2022. Pets are part of the family, and if they stay with me, they will be treated as such! I’m currently working from home with a flexible schedule that allows me to take breaks throughout the day, which I use to take my dogs outside. I am also able to spend all day with my animals and any animals I would board. After getting off work, I love taking walks outside with my dogs. I have a fenced in park 2 minutes down the road from my house where I take my dogs to run unleashed. I have a upstairs and a downstairs that would allow for me to spend one-on-one time with a boarded pet and keep them separated from my own animals.

About: Growing up on a dairy farm, I learned the ropes of animal care early on! With a childhood filled with wagging tails and playful pups, I’ve always had a passion for pets. With the occasional hedgehog, mouse, or lizard of course. Now, I share my home with one cat and two dogs who keep my heart and schedule full. I can’t wait to bring that same love and energy to your furry friends! 🐾❤️ Right now I’m training for a new job and my schedule constantly changes. My shifts are only during the day and don’t last more then 8 hours. I’m always on social media so I’m constantly seeing new toys and gadgets for cats enrichment. I always do my research before buying but I try just about anything with good reviews for my kitties! If they don’t like it I have many friend with cats who can just try it out but I try to pay close attention to what my cats enjoy and work around them. My one cat who isn’t as active enjoys toys with hidden treats but my super energetic cat loves lasers so I have both in basically every drawer of the house. I’m young but still don’t plan on kids so my fur babies are my kids.

My cat, Charlie, is very shy and cautious. Nick has been super patient with getting him on his good side! Charlie has warmed up to him so much, especially with this last visit. I always get so many pictures and videos which is something any pet parent would appreciate!

Adrianna was great to work with and quick to respond to any communication. She had a calm presence that immediately soothed our dogs, including an anxious older dog. We were very comfortable leaving them in her hands for the weekend. Will book again!

About: I love all animals ( maybe more than people) I live on a homestead where I breed and show AKC Chihuahuas, rabbits and chickens. I also am the cat rescue lady rescuing all the barn cats I can. I am experienced in all things fur I currently work full time from home but my parents also stay on my property so there is always someone available 24/7 for any task needed! Especially the cuddle puddles:) My yard is not fenced but I live on 27 acres. Out side time will be leashed for pet safety due to no fencing and me not familiar with the pet. For frequent return customers free run may be available depending on the animals proven training. ( for regular customers I can also work on training commands for an additional charge just ask me about it!!) I do crate when needed( I need to step out to the store ect) or preferred. I also have separate rooms available to separate pets as needed.

About: I’ve worked with dogs through house sitting and volunteering at a humane society, so I’m used to all kinds of personalities. I keep things relaxed, follow their routine, and make sure they get lots of love, playtime, and attention! Plus updates so you don’t miss them too much :) I’m currently working part time and a college student! My schedule fluctuates week by week! I have a lot of weekend availability and some week availability for in house staying! For walking your pet I can pretty much work around whatever! With summer coming up my schedule will be changing and I should have lots of extra time! I care for pets by following their normal routine closely in their home like feeding, fresh water, playtime, and comfort so they feel safe and relaxed while you’re away. For walks, I focus on safe, structured exercise that matches their energy level, making sure they get plenty of time to explore and potty while staying secure on leash. I always prioritize their safety, comfort, and happiness.

Jessie was amazing! Our two senior adopted kitties were quite timid when she first met them. By the end of the first visit, she had them playing with toys and they allowed her to brush them. She was able to give a pill to one of our cats -- something others have been challenged by. I'm so happy we found Jessie. I will have total peace of mind the next time we travel if Jessie is with our kids!
