“I’ve known Jeremiah for 7 years he is a fantastic pet owner/helper. I’ve seen the great care he had given his Italian Gray Hound. Always made sure meds were given regularly and on time, along with regular visits to the groomers and nightly walks.”
About: I’ve grown up with small to large sized dogs that ranged from overly clingy to others wanting to bite my face off but still they all hold a special place in my heart. When it comes to cats I don’t have a lot of experience but I do love that cats are independent but can also be affectionate. I’m currently doing online classes for school so my schedule will be pretty flexible. If anything comes up in my schedule that might interfere, I will communicate with you to figure out the best option. I live in condo and my neighbors have dogs and cats that are super friendly. My favorite thing to see during the summer is the furry friendly environment that everyone has made in the complex. I personally don’t like kennels but if your dog needs it I will gladly use it.
“Kaidyn was amazing! 100% recommend him for housesitting!”
“We’ve used Abbie twice now and returned home to very happy puppies. I have a senior dog who we can no longer board and I was very nervous to leave her the first time but Abbie did a great job of caring for her. She’s very reliable and I could tell my senior dog was less anxious knowing Abbie would be here while I was away. I would highly recommend her to anyone!”
“Tyrone stayed at our house with our two dogs and took such great care of them! He updated us often with messages and photos. Our dogs loved him and enjoyed snuggling with him. He was trustworthy and even washed our sheets without asking! Will definitely be a repeat customer. Thanks Tyrone!”
