1. Christina W.
“Christina is an awesome pet walker / sitter! She’s knowledgeable and makes sure she’s aware of any training that is an issue with your animal. We have a puppy that we needed walked in the middle of the day while we’re working. We needed a walker who was willing to get him some good exercise not just a leisurely walk. She’s also watched our puppy for an event we had a couple of hours offsite. She’s so good with our dog and we highly recommend her.”

4. Tiffney T.
“I had never had anyone but family care for my cats and was pretty nervous about leaving them with someone they didn’t know. From my first meeting with Tiffney I knew they would be in good hands! She was very accommodating with their schedules and medications. Pictures every visit! Even my shyest one came out after a couple of days. I would definitely recommend her for your pets!”
5. Victoria S.
“Victoria was fantastic and treated my cat so well. She was super responsive and provided detailed updates every day. My cat is very shy and never came out to say hi but Victoria always still called out for her and left some treats by her food bowl. I will be booking with Victoria again in the future.”

7. Gianna M.

16. Chelsea S.
About: I’m Chelsea, and I recently moved to the downtown Columbia area. I’ve taken care of an assortment of pets/ babies since I was a child. My family loved cats and as of recent I have started sitting dogs. Because I work from home several days a week and have a hybrid schedule it’s quite easy to me to watch my friends fur babies while you are out of town. I’m very detail oriented and willing to ensure your fur baby has a great time while you’re away. I know it is very stressful for the pet and parent. I work from home 3-5 times a week and my job is very flexible so I am able to work around my schedule very easily. I personally do not have any pets however, I have lots of room, furniture, and windows for their entertainment. The owner would need to provide food, crate, and other needed items for their pet if needed. I have an extra food bowl, blanket, and some toys
17. Alexa R.
“Alexa is incredible! A great communicator and our dogs were all instantly comfortable with her. So happy she’s able to get our pups some fresh air while I’m at work. Hire her!”
18. Steph A.
About: I've had dogs ever since I was 14. I've dog sat for family and friends. Walking, feeding, playing. I have worked for a dog walking company which I had the pleasure of working with dogs, cats, rabbits, ferrets, etc. I'm a stay at home mom. I have a lot of extra time to start helping care for pets aside from my own dogs. . I have a 4ft tall Fenced in yard and live on 11 acres of land. I have 1 dog to keep your fur babies company. As well as 2 toddlers to help play and keep them busy
19. Maddie C.
“Maddie has cared for our two dogs on numerous occasions and has always done a great job! They get so excited to see her whenever she comes so we know that they have fun together when we are not there. I highly recommend Maddie!”
20. Angela C.
About: I have had dogs all my life ranging from small dogs to extra large dogs. I am well versed in care, can administer medications/vitamins as needed, lots of play time, and can care for elderly Pups. Dogs bring such love and joy to this world. I am able to care and supervise your Pup all day with lots of outside playtime, if your dog likes to swim, pool time! Bedtime is up to your regular routine, crate, or on a fluffy dogie bed. Your pup will be slowly introduced to our pack (2 medium sized Pups, Mr. Pickles & Abbie) and supervised throughout their stay. Your Pup will have lots of outdoor play in a secure fenced 3 acre space, if they like to swim, they can have closely supervised pool time. Note the pool has its own surround fencing and is secure when not in use. Bedtime will be dependent on your Pup and their routine. We do allow our dogs to sleep on a couch snuggled in and comfy. If your Pup's routine is crate or a cozy bed on the floor, we can accommodate.
