“Barbara did an excellent job taking care of our cats! She successfully administered medication to a challenging cat. She brought over toys to play with them each day and sent me text and video updates. Barbara made full use of her time at our place, ensuring the cats and home were well cared for and alerting us of anything that may need attention. I would definitely book her again and can’t recommend her enough!”

I am well trained and educated when it comes to animals and I am looking forward to meeting your pets!! I also work at a vet clinic, so I am very comfortable with any animal :) I have been working in vet clinics since 2021 as a veterinary assistant. There is not a day going by where i’m not around furry friends! I am very good at following instructions based on your animals needs! I have years of experience!

I can tell how much she loves animals and my dog is always so excited to see her, so I know she treats him well! She always follows through on her commitment and makes sure my dog is well cared for and loved while I am away. I highly recommend her for any pet care needs!”
10. Marissa C.
About: I have been around dogs my whole life and I have been getting paid to care for people‘s pets since I was 15. I am very experienced in pet care whether it be just to walk the dog around the block, administer medicine, hang out with them in the backyard while they have outside time. Whatever the need is I can definitely cater to it! I am a part time employee at FedEx during the day/week. I am available every other Monday anytime and also available anytime on Tuesday, Wednesday and Fridays and early/afternoon on Saturdays I can care for your pet in any way you need whether it be to walk them, stay outside with them while they use the restroom. Hang out with them for periods of time so they don’t get anxiety. Even if they just need a good petting and consoling while their owner is gone as I know some dogs can get very nervous without their owner around. Whatever your pets needs may be I got you covered!

14. Vivian B.
About: I’ve owned animals my entire life. I’ve raised puppies, teaching basic skills and potty training. I am a true animal lover, prioritizing the happiness and health of my pets and caring deeply about all animals. You can trust that your pet will be top priority when in my care. I am available M-F after 5pm for 30+ minute walks and playtime. I am available Saturday and Sunday any time. Depending on your preference, I can walk near your house or I can take them on nature hikes, at local trails for a longer and more enriching experience. I am also available for overnight boarding any day of the week (including weekends). This can be either at your house or my own, depending on the situation. I am willing to discuss any requests. When boarding, I will be available to tend to the animal before and immediately after work and at least every 2-4 hours on the weekends. I will prioritize their needs 100% while they are in my care. I have a dog that is very easygoing and can keep your pet company. She prefers to nap but will share toys and would love a partner for walks. I also have the option to have relatives keep my pets while your pet is staying with me, if your pet prefers no other animals in the house. I also have a guest bedroom that (if necessary) allows me to separate the animals while I am away for safety reasons. I prioritize safety and will constantly monitor the animals, while allowing them freedom to roam and enjoy a comfortable environment. I am also available to stop by your house on a schedule to care for your pet if that is preferred. I am willing to discuss my staying at your residence as well. I am flexible and willing to work out the perfect situation for your specific needs.

“This was the second time Leigh watched our cat and we’re all so happy. She shows up during the agreed upon times, gives our cat a lot of attention, and communicates very well — sending photos and sometimes videos. We’re all so appreciative!”
16. Amanda B.
“She is an extraordinary pet owner, she would take care of your pet/s the same way as she would treat yours. I would highly recommend her to pet sit for anyone of my friends or family.”
17. Christen H.
“Christen and her family are the warmest, most responsible and caring crew! They have cared for our beloved Bosco and taken phenomenal care of him, even with his higher needs as an older dog. I highly recommend using Christen as a caregiver for your precious fur babies!”
18. Calista C.
“Calista is one of the most kind, genuine girls I have had the pleasure of meeting and becoming friends with. She has the sweetest dog, Ryker, that she makes a priority at all times. She is responsible and helpful. We’re in school together and she is always there to listen or help with any problems I have. Her work ethic is admirable and she always tries to be the best she can possibly be. I highly recommend, and would let her care for my animals, which I consider my babies.”
