“This was the second time Jennifer watched my cat when the sitter I had set up cancelled last minute. My cat was well cared for and she gave good updates throughout her stay with him. I can be a worrywart, especially about my cat, and Jennifer made me feel very comfortable being gone. I would definitely use her as a sitter again in the future and recommend her to anyone in need of a cat sitter.”

12. Miranda & Austin R.
“Words can’t describe how good Miranda is with home/dog sitting. Her cleanliness in her mind is portrayed outward toward your fur babies and home. She has treated my 4 cats and 2 dogs like they were her own for a full week I was out on business. When I came home the floors were spotless and the dogs were freshly bathed. I now plan my business trips and vacations around Miranda’s free time since I have found a diamond in the rough”

About: I have 2 XL dogs and 2 cats I absolutely love both cats and dogs. I am the person who cannot walk past an animal without needing to shower it with love! I work from home most days so I can be fairly flexible to walk, sit or board animals. Dogs and cats no problem. Can come to your home and give food, water, walks and love when it works for your animals routine I have a fenced back yard and 2 dogs that would love to play. I can crate and separate if needed as well. Large dog friendly neighborhood for walks and play


14. Connie D.
“I have known Connie for many years. Even when she was homeless, and she was taking care of her pets. They were her number one priority over her. Homeless was not easy for her, but her pets were number one. She will help any animal that needs help specially, wild animals that need water or food. Instead of her throwing the food away, she gives it to all the animals in the area that she may be near”


15. Amber F.

Lucy loved AJ and was AJ's new buddy. We will definitely use AJ again and recommend them to anyone needing a pet sitter. AJ communicated through out the day with us. It's nice being able to leave the dogs and know they were being well cared for.”

About: I’ve previously worked and volunteered in animal shelters, and I am certified in dog training by the American behavior college. I’ve owned several dogs myself until they were 13 years old. I will care for your pets as if they were my own. I am currently a teacher, so I have plenty of time off during holiday breaks and weekends, and can give your pet all the attention they need. We also live on a lake, and I love taking dogs on jogs and walks around the water! I am an active person who would love taking your dog on numerous walks throughout the day. I also live close to dog parks giving your dog plenty of exercise.
