10. Khalid F.
“Khalid has been walking my dog for several months now, and it's been a wonderful experience. Sasha has a lot of energy and it's crystal clear that Khalid understands her needs and has a real connection with her, apart from me i've never seen her this excited whenever he comes to pick her up. After each walk she always come back and go straight to her bed which is perfect for me, the updates and pictures i recieve when they're off on a walk always put a smile on my face. All and all Khalid is punctual, reliable and truly care about sasha's well being and i'm forever grateful he was recommended.”

I could not have asked for a better sitter during our special day! The pups loved her and so did we, she will definitely be our go to! PS THANK YOU x10000”

18. Melanie H.
About: I’ve had dogs on and off my entire life. For the last 12 years our family has rescued/adopted 11 dogs. I have kept family and friends' dogs while they vacation as well as done drop ins at their home for walks, feeding and cuddling. I have also taken care of goats and chickens. I will treat your pets how I would want someone to treat mine. I am comfortable around all size and breeds of dogs and cats as well as goats and chickens. I am self employed and have a very flexible schedule. I am available almost any time, including nights and weekends. Most schedules can be accommodated. I have 5 acres which about 1/2 acre is fenced in with 6-foot fencing. I can snuggle your dog on the couch or crate them if they feel more comfortable like that. I have my own personal dogs but keep them separate from other people's pets. If you leave directions of what your pets routine in your home is like I can provide for them in that manner.
19. Colleen B.
About: I’ve always had animals around me, from a cat with an autoimmune condition and diabetes to being the primary caregiver for a puppy with a broken leg when I was younger. I will always prioritize animals. I am currently going to online community college and only taking a few classes. I have a lot of time on my hand and would love to fill that time with taking care of your pet! I have a fenced in yard, a dog who is very friendly, and a cat who is a little skittish and probably won’t bother your animal too much. I also have a pool if your animal can swim for the summer time (my dog loves swimming with me) and a great neighborhood to go on walks in. Your animals will be allowed on all my furniture unless I’m told otherwise and I will make sure to try and make them as comfortable as possible.
20. Taylor B.
“Taylor took excellent care of our pets and home while we were on vacation. Our animals warmed up to her quickly, and she was an excellent communicator. Would definitely recommend!”
