She left the house nice and clean for us to come home to. She watered plants/new grass outside. She also sent us the MOST beautiful pictures of our pets. We would recommend Danielle to anyone!

Ashley did amazing with our two dogs. She even paid attention to our GSP whose ears bother him from time to time. We didn’t mention it to her and she noticed…how thoughtful!! Both our dogs are energetic and she did great keeping them happy and feed. She stayed a bit longer on the last day just to make sure they were feed before she left. We appreciate her attention to detail, keeping the house tidy, and our pets happy!!! We will have her back!!!

About: I treat every pet like family, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I’m experienced with dogs of all ages, including seniors and pups with special needs, and I’m great at reading body language to make sure every pet feels at ease. Whether it’s playtime, cuddle time, or just keeping their routine steady, I bring patience, reliability, and a whole lot of heart to every visit. I graduated this May and currently hold a part-time position, so my schedule will be fairly open this summer to give your pup the time and attention they need. When caring for pets in their own home, I make sure to follow their usual routines closely—whether that’s feeding, walking, playtime, or rest—so they feel comfortable and secure. I give lots of attention, cuddles, and positive reinforcement to keep them happy and relaxed. I prioritize clear communication with the pet owner to make sure I’m meeting all their needs and providing the best care possible.

Hailee was AMAZING!! Ryker took to her right away like he had known her his whole life. He did great while we were gone. We were worried he wouldn't eat well and be sad (he lost his companion a few months ago) but he did so good and ate well. I think it's because Hailee has a way with animals, I think they are drawn to her ❤️. We will definitely use Hailee in the future!

About: I have owned pet dogs and cats my entire life. As an adult, I have helped raise and care for two cats and currently live with an older dog that I get to love and care for. I love dog walks and am physically capable and willing to care for any size and temperament of dog. I am a teacher in the school district, so I have a lot of free time in my schedule this summer, so what your pet's needs are is priority #1. Our dog has a steady daily schedule of a breakfast treat, a stim toy, a bone for lunch, a walk, and a kong. She always has access to water and dry food. She has a "treat" button she can press to ask for more at anytime. In the summer, we try to walk when it's cooler out and do two smaller walls since she's getting older. Whatever your dog needs for care in your home, please let me know. I'll make sure they get it, along with a few ear scratches and bully rubs.

About: I have taken care of different animals growing up dog sitting, and dog walking is what I normally did! I love going on walks with dogs combines my two favorite things, the outdoors and animals! I have two other jobs but don’t work full time, I usually have a couple days off. When I’m off i like to be outside and doing things! I help make the animals feel safe! I know how some animals can be with their parents gone and it can make them feel scared or abandoned. So being there with them and playing with them can help calm that sense of abandonment!

Jacob is the best! Everytime he has watched our dog/house sat, he has done a great job. He is always conscientious about Bella's schedule and specific needs. Jacob does a great job putting us at ease on how things are going because he communicates daily with updates and pictures. The house is clean and well cared for upon our return and we really appreciate his kind and patient touch. Bella is always super excited when she sees him walk in the door.
