Mandy has been great! Even our skittish cat and anxious dog took to her quite quickly. She is very accommodating and understanding with schedule changes. She’s highly communicative and very attentive to any details. Her experience with challenging animals is reassuring as well. We will for sure hire Mandy again!

Our golden doodle loves staying with September!! He loves playing with her dogs and always comes home very tired because of all the fun playing he has had!! We have left Louie with September every time we go on vacation for a week and trust her wholeheartedly to love and give special attention to our pup! She loves him like he is one of her own! She texts us pictures throughout the week and it always looks like he is having so much fun! We will continue to send him to September’s!

This was our 1st experience with Rover and with Glen and we are very pleased. It’s nice to know we can plan an extended outing for the day and our dog can get excellent care from Glen. He sent us a couple pictures and our dog seemed happy and content when we arrived home. Will def book with Glen again!

About: We have taken care of all kinds of animals for as long as we can remember. We recently raised a litter of 9 Australian Sheppards in my home. We also have a lot of experience with cats! We are reliable and caring people. True animal lovers. Everyone that knows us knows that we spoil our dogs and treat them like family (probably even better). I am a CNA of 3 years and currently in nursing school. My boyfriend, Skyler, (who grew up on a farm) will also help care for your fur baby. We do not have a fenced yard but we have a long dog run that runs from one end of my yard to the other. We live in the country on 1.5 acres. We would love to take your dog on a walk and explore the woods behind my house! We have two friendly dogs (they love cats too) that will be your animal’s new best friend! We will treat your dogs like they are apart of our family. No crates or cages unless told to. We have several comfy couches and beds for your dogs to take naps on. They will love their stay with us!

Will absolutely be choosing Abby again. He experience with collies made me a lot more comfortable leaving my two fur babies home alone with her to check in on. As an anxious pet-owner she made it easier and her communication made me feel so much at ease.

About: As a pet lover and experienced caregiver, I treat pets like family. With years of experience caring for five dogs and three cats, I understand the importance of attention, exercise, and maintaining a consistent routine to keep pets happy and healthy. Whether you have large dogs, small dogs, special-needs pets, or energetic puppies, I am fully equipped to meet their unique needs. I ensure they receive timely meals, medications (if needed), baths, and plenty of exercise to keep them engaged and content throughout the day. Your dog will also enjoy access to my gated half-acre lot, providing a safe space for them to run, play, and explore under careful supervision.For cat owners, I create a calm and cozy environment where your feline companions can feel safe and cared for. I ensure they stick to their feeding schedules, enjoy playtime with catnip toys (if they like), and have a clean, comfortable space to relax. I also provide regular brushing to keep their coats healthy and clean their litter boxes frequently to maintain a fresh environment. Your cat will receive the attention and care they deserve while you’re away. With me, your pet will feel right at home, and you’ll have peace of mind knowing they are in loving, capable hands. I currently work from home, so your pet will never be left alone for extended periods. I know how important it is for pets to have companionship and consistent care while their owners are away. I provide a calm, pet-friendly environment with a spacious, gated half-acre yard for exercise and plenty of indoor space for relaxation. I also have one friendly cats who are comfortable around other pets( but can be separated if needed) , ensuring a peaceful atmosphere.

About: I’ve been trusted to care for the precious pets of family members and friends, including feeding them, playing with them, watching them, and walking them. I love cats and dogs! I currently do not have another job, so I will be able to spend a lot of quality time with your pets this summer! However, I will be taking classes starting in August, so my availability will change then. I am very gentle and loving towards all animals. As of now, I only have 1 cat, and he is my world! His name is Mario, and he is 19 years old! I give him lots of attention, love, and I always talk to him very sweetly. He’s my baby! I have many friends and family members with cats and dogs that I love to visit and play with as well!
