“Emily is fabulous! She has worked with Cats, Dogs, Donkeys, and Horses just to name a few. She loves them all. She has an ability to truly understand how they are feeling about stuff. She talks to them like people. I honestly have never seen an animal respond to her in a negative way.”

About: I’ve had animals my whole life and have always been passionate about them since I was a kid. I wanting to be a vet when I grew up but life took a different turn and I settled on being a veterinary assistant. I continue to learn daily about their food, exercise and energy needs to be healthy, happy, content pets. I am blessed to make a living doing what I love and helping animals to be at their best! I currently have 4 dogs and 5 cats and besides my 2 grown kids and 2 grandkids they are the loves of my life!! I hope one day to be able to have a senior sanctuary for pets in my home to provide a safe loving atmosphere to seniors in their last years. I currently work 10 hour days , 4 days a week and mostly have weekends off. I can accommodate weekday evenings check ins and walks and anytime on weekends. I can come to your home and follow a specific guideline that you have scheduled for your pet. I understand how pets get accustomed to a certain routine and come to look forward to and expect scheduled playtime, meals and treats. I also know how they can get lonely while their people are away and just want some attention and cuddle time.

10. Thomas B.
“This has been the absolute best pet sitting experience my cats and I have ever had. Five stars doesn't feel enough for the level of service that was provided. Truly, Thomas went above and beyond in multiple aspects of this pet-sitting window, especially when it came to working with our shy cat, Loki. He made sure both cats were very well taken care of, ate their food, and gave them plenty of play time! He was very communicative, updating us each drop in while we were on our trip, and provided great photos! Absolutely going to be booking again when possible.”

About: I grew up with dogs my entire life. From the moment I was born I grew up with Doberman Pinschers so big dogs don’t scare me off. Just recently I’ve gotten a miniature dachshund and she is the best of friends with my current male Doberman. I live up to the challenge if you have a dog with some health issues. I’ve been through it personally with my own so if I need to administer medication it’s no problem at all. Potty breaks I make sure are frequent as I’m still trying to potty train my little one as she’s very stubborn about it. I welcome working with cats as well! I’ve never had one, however, I have lots of family and friends who do for which I am constantly around. If you also have pets that aren’t cats or dogs I would love to help you out! More often available on the weekends or a day during the week on Wednesday on my days off from work. If you have specific days in mine I will need to know ahead of time. I can stop by early in the morning before work and then after work (no more than 9 hours at most between) I have not yet cared for clients pets in my own home, looking to build up a bigger portfolio before doing moving forward with that
17. Amie F.
About: I have had pets since I was a kid, and all through my life I have had some sort of animal. Big or small, I have tons of experience with all kinds. Now, I have 14 fur/feather/scale babies of my own and I am going to IVCC to getting my associates in science and majoring in wildlife bio. I am out of school for the summer and looking for anything really. Full time or part time. And any time of the night or day is fine with me. I have 14 pets, no dogs or cats, but I did have plenty of them growing up. Right now we have 6 birds, three different kinds, ((3 of them are house ducks)) a snake and the rest are smaller animals rabbit, piggy's, ferret etc. The rabbit is free roam, the birds and other animals all have their own free roam/fly time. Our house is on a set schedule as soon as the sun peeks through, lol, the ducks let us know, it's time to get the day started. Due to us having this many kiddos, we do plan long days ahead of time so everything is adjusted properly so everyone is taken care of. I am no stranger to getting dirty or dealing with any type of mess. Depending on the weather, we are outside as much as possible with a number of them and always trying to find new ways to keep their little minds engaged.
18. Tom H.
“Tom was asked to stop by my house and let my basset hound Flash out. He went above and beyond that! He stuck around and played with Flash, fed him and took pictures and video of Flash enjoying his company and shared them with me. Tom is a fantastic dog sitter!”
