“I have known Lisa since 1980, though out those years she has proven to be a nurturing, caring trustworthy person. I would feel 100% comfortable with her taking care of my fur family and non fur family. Though Lisas love of animals she has worked with training and caring of service dogs for families with special needs. Lisa is a wonderful person and a treasure to find. She is dependable and honest and your fur baby will fall in love with her.”


2. Deborah C.
“We met Deborah when we needed a sitter for our high strung Jack-Chi. She took him in with open arms and he felt right at home with her. She posted pics of his exercise adventures and set our minds at ease. She is a true Doge lover and we plan to ask her to take care of him again as this summer's business will have us on the road again.”


3. Ava J.
“Ava is one of the very few people that I would leave my beloved dog with. She's loving, brilliant, caring & completely responsible. She totally loves dogs & wants your dog to be treated like one of her own. Who are spoiled & happy, by the way. She's also a genuinely awesome individual. I cannot recommend her highly enough.”


4. Nancy "Lea" M.

“Our dog Kai loved her walk with Lea, and I appreciated that she was on time and reliable. I won't hesitate to book with her again.”


5. Nancye D.
“I have known Nancye for more than ten years, during this time I saw how she took care of her own pet Cinder she spared no expense in the care she needed and she showed her so much love and kindness she treated her just like she was a real child. Nancye just lost her recently and she was devastated, Nancye looks after the neighbors pets, taking them treats and making sure they have food and clean water when their owners do not really pay that much attention to the animals. I don't think you could ask for anyone better to leave your pet with, she truly is an animal lover and an extrodinary caring person.”

“Natasha is wonderful! She took care of our elderly dog, Amos, for 5 and a half days, making sure he had everything he needed to feel comfortable. We had complete peace of mind and were able to enjoy our vacation knowing Amos was well cared for. We would definitely book Natasha again!”


7. Mia M.
About: I absolutely love dog and house sitting! I have house and dog sat for up to four dogs at once and been around dogs all my life, there is nothing I'd like to do more! I grew up around lots of dogs and started out my love for dogs early. I continued by getting my own dog and by house and dog sitting for friends and family. I continued to do this throughout college and into my adult life as a counselor, but expanded to house sitting for other people in the area with dogs. I have lots of experience with all sizes of dogs and am currently training my dog to walk on a leash and different manners. I've worked with dogs of all types of personalities and love them all!

“Cynthia is fond of all animals. She has a connection with them as if they can communicate using mental telepathy. I have been in her home many times and her pets love her and she loves them! She is an excellent choice to care for your pet family. I highly recommend her for not only for caring and loving all animals but she is such a good person and I would trust her with anything!”

19. Katie C.
About: I have owned pets for my entire life, and I often take care of people in my life’s pets while they are away. I can walk your pets, play with them, and any other task you need! I am currently applying to a few jobs to work part time but right now my schedule is open! I have a car that I can use as well. I have owned both dogs and cats, and a few other smaller animals. I typically walk dogs 3-4 times a day and I feed my pets twice a day while they have constant dry food available. I also play with my pets multiple times a day for as long as they want to play for!


20. Alexandra S.
About: I have grown up with pets my whole life. I have had chickens for about 7 years and 4 dogs for over 15 years. I also have some experience with other animals as well. I grew up with three German shepherds and a crazy hyper Jack Russell. We bred our two german shepherds and kept one puppy from the litter so I do have experience with puppies and the patience to take care of them. The two shepherds I grew up with passed away due to sicknesses so I also have experience taking care of sick dogs and giving them the extra special care they need! I have also taken care of friends pets numerous times. I have always had a love for caring for animals and getting to spend quality time with them. Growing up surrounded by all sorts of pets has given me the skills of patience and how to give the correct care and attention each specific pet needs. I’m currently in school for the medical field and have a pretty full schedule in the mornings during the week. But I have a clear schedule Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and am available in the afternoons during the week. I live in the countryside with many acres of open land so I have plenty of space your pets can roam around, play, and not have to worry about keeping them on a leash when they are being watched. If my client is not comfortable with letting them go without a leash I also have an extremely large fenced in area that small dogs to large dogs cannot get out of. I do have a Jack Russell who is old so I keep other animals away from her to make sure she is safe and not at risk of being hurt since she is older. I also have a German shepherd and she is all love and cuddles and enjoys play time with other dogs and would love another furry friend to play with!
