“Jina took care of our dog and home for 2 weeks while we were out of town. She was amazing. Our pup was well cared for and I so appreciated her daily updates and photos.

We could tell from the pics she sent that the pets were well cared for and enjoyed their time with her. We came home to happy pets and a well cared for home, so could not ask for any better than that!”

About: I have had my cat Earl for 11 years and had dogs growing up. I promise to love and care for your pets as though they are my own. I am comfortable feeding, walking, scooping poop or cat boxes, and administering medicine with care. My schedule is pretty flexible as I WFH, and I am saving up for my wedding in 2026 so really appreciate your business. I hope you will take a chance on me! I work from home so am pretty flexible with pet care. I have a car and am comfortable driving to you, taking your pet to a local park, etc. I typically need at least 24h notice for dog walking to make sure I have no meeting conflicts (unless the timing is flexible for you). I can easily crate your dog if needed, I am comfortable walking your pet for long distances, I have no issues picking up poop or scooping cat boxes, and am willing to learn any additional needs your pet may have to make sure our experience together is a pleasant one! I am comfortable walking a dog of 100+ pounds, unless it is known to dart away quickly. I can only lift about 50 lbs so don’t trust my ability to pull your dog back/control it if it is reactive like that.

“Ken took such good care of our boy Hamlet. He’s just such a natural around dogs and is funny to boot. Very jovial and attentive with a great sense of humor. He gave us updates for each time he checked in Hamlet on each day with a report on meal time, potty breaks, and play time. Also sent cute pictures! Ken clearly loves dogs and shows that in his care for them. I wouldn’t hesitate to book him again.”
“Christy is wonderful. She is super caring, very empathetic, and sincere. We have two special needs dogs, and Christy took great care of our dogs. She sent us daily pictures and videos too. We felt complete ease with leaving Dash and Olive in her care. She also leaves lovely notes regarding the daily interactions when she visits. We found these to be a nice "extra." We highly recommend her to anyone for their fur baby's care.”
