“I highly recommend Ali’s services. I was looking for a sitter who not only loves my cats as her own but understands subtle changes in their health during my vacation. One of my cats is over 12 years old so I needed a sitter with veterinary skills and knowledges. I am glad that I have chosen Ali for my cats and will ask her again for next vacations. Her services are beyond my expectations.”

“We know Jolene as Jody. We had Jody care for brother & sister pupples Chase and Chloe. They were 16 yrs old. Jody cared for the with loving care. She has experience with animals and there was never a problem. Because of their age she kept them inside her home. I would recommend Jody's services to anyone that needed care for their puppies. We lost Chase and Chloe this last year.”

“AMAZING!!! Tracy watched our fur babies while we were off getting married. INCREDIBLY professional. I gave her the number to my personal attendant; even though I got updates through the app Tracy updated the attendant so as so not bother us on our special day. I would recommend her to anyone & hope to use her again! 2 paws up”
8. Gloria B.
“I’ve seen Gloria with Rico and she would be a perfect candidate for a pet sitter. She takes him to the park which he loves and also finds fellow dog lovers to come with so that Rico has a friend. He loves playing outside her apartment with all his toys and going on walks with her, even though his little legs don’t let him go very far. She has trained him on fetch and he loves it, he also loves playing tug of war with Gloria on the couch. She takes very good care of him and he’s a happy dog.”

About: I worked at a Vet Clinic for five years where I worked with dogs of all ages. My specialty was senior dogs. I consider myself patient and loving. I’m currently in between being done with my masters degree and looking for a new job with my degree. I’m taking a break between now and then so I have plenty of time to provide services ! I have one dog who is very friendly to other animals. I have one cat who is very independent and will not be a bother to any other friends.
13. Laura d.
“Laura would be a delight for anyone to have work with their dogs. She is a responsible dog lover. She’s strong enough to handle the smallest dogs, to the biggest dogs. I think the first time she ever saw my dog she had tears in her eyes. She loves dogs, and can take care of them without a single problem or complaint. I trust her with my dog and anyone else should too.”
14. Laurallee D.
About: I am a veterinarian assistant and am looking to make some extra income. I have a passion for animals, especially dogs. I will love your dogs as if they are my own and will make sure they feel like they are at their own home. I have experience with many different breeds and ages. I can give medications. I am home all day on two week days a week and my fiancé is home by 5 everyday. We have a large fenced in yard, so they can run and play. We have two very friendly puppies ourselves. Their names are Copper and Theo. Copper is a 2 year old coonhound mix and Theo is a year old catahoula. They love the run and play with other dogs.
15. Kiah O.

17. Natalie T.
About: I grew up around a variety of animals. From pigs to cows. Sheep, goats, rabbits, hamsters, dogs, cats, fish, and more. I’ve seen and cared for so many animals growing up with a farm in the country and living in suburbs during school time! I know animals are too good for humans. Therefore I will do anything I can to always care and help animals in need. I can confidently say your animals is in safe hands :) As a college student, tending for my animals is a big responsibility. Feeding and maintaining the happiness of my pets is a great joy in my life. It is just a task that comes with caring for any animals. It is always worth the responsibility. Having two cats in my home allows for me to clean the litter box, provide food daily, take my cats for time outside, and to provide them with endless petting sessions. A clean environment ensures the pets happiness and well being.
