“Our animals love Hannah, and we do too! She shows up on time and communicates with us if there are any changes or updates. When we are out of town she always sends pictures. Our two dogs have lots of energy so she's very good about throwing their ball for them and getting their energy out. We also have two cats and she's good about giving them attention too! She's reliable and we would recommend her to anyone who wants peace of mind.”

4. Grace G.
About: Hi! My name is Grace and I have been dog-sitting for family, friends, and neighbors for about three years now, and I absolutely love it. With two big German Shepherds of my own, I am very comfortable with larger dogs, but I am just as excited about spending time with smaller ones too. Whether it's going for walks, hitting up the park, or even swimming, I’m all about making sure your pups get plenty of exercise and fun. I’ve always been a dog lover, and I can't wait to meet and care for your furry friends! I'm currently a full-time college student, so I would love to make a flexible schedule for myself that works around my class schedule. This semester I have classes on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. But, on Mondays and Fridays I am done with classes by 2:20. On Tuesdays I am free all day until 6pm, and Thursdays I am free all day! I would love to make a little extra money while taking care of your furry friends! Rest assured that I will provide excellent care for your dogs by ensuring they receive their meals at the designated times and are let out regularly for bathroom breaks. I will also make time for their daily exercise routines to keep them happy and healthy. Additionally, I will administer any required oral medications as prescribed, following the instructions carefully to make sure they get the proper treatment. Your dogs will be in good hands and will receive the attentive care they need.

At home my dog is my number one priority-his safety, health and happiness come before anything else. I treat your babes the same way. Anything they need to ensure safety, health and happiness is what I will do.
