She naturally connects with animals, making them feel loved, safe, and cared for. If you're looking for someone who will treat your furry family member as their own, Sophia is the perfect choice - she is SOOO good to my boxer/pitbull mix Mu.

I highly recommend Alyssa, she will ensure that your four legged family is properly taken care of!”

15. Melisa R.
About: I always knew I wanted to work with animals ever since I was little. I grew up with taking care of chickens and pigs then got a job in the field. I’ve been in the vet field for over 10 years. From dog boarding to critical care in the ICU. I only work 3-4 days a week with 10 hour shifts and get off at 2:30 the latest. So most of my time is free for pet sitting. If I were to have a pet at my home it would be completely safe as both my front and back yards are completely fenced off.
16. Tracey S.
“Tracey was amazing with my dog while we were out of town for the day. She came to our house while we were away and took our dog for 2 walks and made sure to send me updates as well. She even brought in some packages that were delivered that day while we were out. Wi definitely be working with Tracey again in the future.”
17. Victoria R.
“Victoria is a wonderful caregiver for all fur babies and a considerate provider for all under her care. She goes above and beyond to ensure an animal under care is safe and comfortable.”
