17. Emily C.
About: Growing up, we had a zoo at our house. Dogs, cats, birds, rabbits, hamsters, guinea pigs. My whole family loves animals and caring for them is deeply imbedded into my soul. My golden retriever Daisy is my best friend. I genuinely couldn’t live without her and don’t know how I got so lucky with her. My partner is sick of me asking for another pet so I’m looking to start caring for other pets even if it is just taking them for walks when I can. I currently work from 8am-4pm Monday-Thursday, with a shorter day ending at 1pm on Fridays. I am free first thing in the morning or after these hours. Weekends are flexible and I can work around you! I am able to accommodate whatever needs your fur baby requires. I understand that pet care is not one-size-fits all and would love to talk about your pet’s individual needs.


18. Kelsey B.

“Kelsey was super communicative and so sweet with our cats! Asked great questions about my instructions! Would definitely ask for help from her again!”


19. katy g.

“Thanks to Katy for watching my girl Rue. It was a last minute request and she had super fast response times. Always sent pics and even got some pets in on my very particular cat 🤗”


20. Jessica B.
“Jess is so great with my dogs! They get so excited to see her! I would recommend her to everyone! She's very responsible and always is quick to respond!”
