“Isabella was a life saver for us for our trip! We had never used Rover before and were a bit nervous to entrust our pets to someone, but she made us feel very comfortable with them and sent detailed updates each day along with pictures. I would 100% recommend her to watch your animals! Thank you Isabella! :)”

“2nd time booking with Jordan. Just top notch service. I’m so pleased with the level of patience and care Jordan consistently shows our little guy. I’m very picky about who I leave Jasper with, Jordan is very trustworthy and would highly recommend her services. Thanks again Jordan! See you again soon!”

“We are very thankful to Michael for taking care of our not 1, not 2, but 5 pups!!! 3 of the 5 are complete wildlings but he patiently handled them with grace. He is very easy to work with in scheduling. Michael even showed up for a meet & greet and spent quite a while learning the most he could about our babies so he would be prepared to take care of them when needed. We look forward to building the relationship & being able to count on him to help us when we have plans that cause us to be away from them. Thank you Michael!!!”

About: Hi, my name is Claudia and I am a stay at home mom. I have had doggy fever for a while now lol so by letting me walk and look after your lovely beauties you will be aiding me in many things :D first, ridding me of my doggy fever. Second, helping me exercise walking dogs would be a great motivation. Last, helping me earn a little income while doing something I love and spending time outside the house with my kids. I don't have any professional experience but I often look after my friend's pets while they are out of town. That includes of course all the normal things walking, playing, feeding, loving on them, and sometimes over night stays. My ideal avalibilty would be more like a 8:30am-2pm Monday thru Friday if needed. However If you need me and I am available outside of those times I would not mind. Hopefully this was enough info on me for you to consider me to help you look after your fur babies :D. I would like to become your trusted go to person to care for your fur babies while you are away from them. They will be loved and loved on as much as they need it. We would play, take walks, feed them, take more walks. I know all pets are not the same and need their own kind of special attention so I would hope to be able to attend to whatever they may need while in my care.
“Thank you for taking care of Penny during our time away! We appreciate you and all the pics you included in her report card! Although we missed her, it was wonderful knowing she was in good hands. And thanks for bringing in the package for safekeeping while we were away.”

They sleep in the bed with me, sit on the couch with me and watch TV. I like to take them for a long walks and also fun car rides.

About: Growing up we were a pet family - included cats, dogs, rats (I know), hamsters, fish, and reptiles. As an adult I have been responsible for caring for the pets of my friends and family. Including "high maintenance dogs, e.g requiring medication 3 times a day, needing an ointment on their skin etc. I have looked after dogs and cats ranging from a few months to end of life care, including those visually impaired. I currently have no pets of my own so am looking forward to devoting my care to your pet. My full-time job is flexible in terms of hours and I can work from home if your pet needs extra attention. This allows for the flexibility for scheduling walks or boarding. I am available most days for all activities depending on the day. I have a pet friendly home in a beautiful area of Midtown so if walks are needed it the best environment. Other pets would need their homes if they require (crate, terrarium etc). I live in a clean, calm, environment that all pets can enjoy.

I have a fenced in yard with a 3 year old dog that is very playful. She gets along with cats and dogs. I have toys and bedding for both dogs and cats.
About: I have pet sit for family and friends. I been around and taken care of animals my whole life. I have helped rehome a few animals in my lifetime. I have a full time job but I’m trying to make this my main job so I can be available to the animals as they need me. To be available to walk and play with. I can take care of animals in their own homes. Im not able to do so at my home. Available for drop ins, overnights and for walks.
About: I have always been a lover to all animals, but especially dogs and cats. I had a shih tzu when I was 9 but had to say goodbye to him when I left for college. Since then I have not had a pet, but spent time with my friends and acquaintances pets in college and post grad. My girlfriend’s dog was also like my own and I spent a lot of time working with high energy labs! There has not been a dog or a cat that I can’t bond with. I am currently spending my time working on applications to different graduate schools, and therefore very flexible! I am an early riser and very flexible when it comes to your schedule. I am very used to staying in a client’s home! I have done so on plenty of occasions. A pet is definitely more at ease when they are in comfort of their own home.
