“Hello, my name is Kathryn Miller and I'm the owner of a high strung Jack Russel terrier/ mini pin mix. She is very picky about who we leave her with. But, every year my husband and I go out of town for a few weeks for our anniversary and we have to make sure we have someone to look after our very spoiled fur princess. We alway call Kaylan McNamara. Our fur baby always loves to see her. We can go on our trip without worries for our four legged baby. We come home to a healthy, Happy and loved doggy. So, of you're looking for someone to treat your pet like one of the family and to make sure they are loved and cared for Miss McNamara is you perfect choice.”

7. Natalie T.
“Natalie is the BEST dog sitter I’ve had!! Left my two pups in her care for 5 days while on vacation, i watched on my ring camera as she came to let them out to potty multiple times throughout the day, fed them, played with them, & treated them as if they were her own pups. I will be leaving them with her for our next vacation and would highly recommend bringing your fur babies to her, it’s so well worth it to know your babies are in good hands!!”

About: I’ve had pets my whole life and dog sat for family and friends whenever needed. I would love the chance to show yours some love! Hi, I am a registered nurse who has always been passionate about animals. I usually only work 3 days a week so have a lot of time in the week that I could help care for your pets! I have two dogs myself and love taking them on walks, to dog parks, and playing in our yard. I live in a home with a large fenced in yard. We have a new walking trail very close to the house as well as a new dog park (the one by Jonesboro High). I have a large crate if your dog needs to be crated during times. We have a camera in the house to monitor our pets when we are not home.

All of my cats felt comfortable and were always happy to see her! She even swept my back catio and offered to vacuum as well. She’ll go out of her way to make you and your fur babies feel as comfortable as possible. I definitely would recommend her she’s amazing Thank You Ashlyn ?”

About: I’m a 25 year old woman that absolutely loves animals! My great dane recently passed away.. and I’ve recently adopted a 6 month old pit mix! I have worked at a Vet Clinic before when I was younger and loved every minute of it. I will be able to take care of all your pet needs and request by you. He/She would be greatly taken care of. I can also teach dogs simple commands and work on potty-training. Dogs love me almost as I love them! I currently work full time, but I will still have plenty of time to spend with your pets! I can do drop in visits before and/or after work. I promise i will absolutely make time for them! I currently am not offering boarding or doggy daycare services. If something comes up while I am watching your baby.. we can always work something out.

About: I got my first pet when I was four. He was a chihuahua, and he lived until he was ten! I’ve had Dobermans, chihuahuas, and a greyhound since!! I used to train my Dobermans myself! They were taught to be a guard dog of a sort. I currently have one chihuahua, and one cat. I love them very much! I’m currently working at a day care! I work four days of the week, and I’m off three days of the week! I’m off on weekends, and every holiday (fourth of July, Memorial Day, thanksgiving, Christmas etc) I have a fenced in backyard! And my chihuahua gets along great with other fur babies! Your pups will get plenty of attention! And lots of time for fun!

19. Jaden A.
“I gotta say, my experience with you as a pet sitter was absolutely amazing. When we first met, I could tell right away that you were the real deal. You had this warm, caring energy about you that just made me feel like my pets were gonna be in good hands. And man, did you deliver! You took the time to get to know each of my pets and their quirks, and you always treated them with so much love and respect. I felt like they were getting even better care than when I'm around! One thing that really stood out to me was how reliable and professional you were. You always showed up on time, and you were really good about keeping me in the loop with updates and stuff. I never once had to worry about my pets being neglected or anything like that. Overall, I can't recommend you enough as a pet sitter. You've got a real gift for working with animals, and I know my pets always looked forward to seeing you. Thanks for everything you've done for us – you're the best!”

“I cannot say enough great things about Princella! We have hired her for babysitting, pet sitting, and housesitting and she has always been wonderful to work with.

I highly recommend her for your pet sitting needs and will continue to use her in the future!”
