My instincts were correct and he has gone above and beyond to make sure my dog had the care and exercise that she needed. His punctuality is exemplary, as are his communication skills. I’m grateful to have found Nick, and I’m sure my Gracie is too.”

About: I have a profound love for dogs that stems from my own experience as a dog owner. Sadly, my beloved dog passed away two years ago, but the bond we shared left an indelible mark on my heart. I understand the importance of providing a safe, loving, and engaging environment for dogs, and I'm committed to ensuring your furry friend receives the same level of care and affection. With years of experience in dog sitting, I am well-versed in handling various breeds and temperaments. Whether it's going for long walks, playing fetch, or simply providing companionship, I tailor my approach to meet the unique needs of each dog. Your pup will be in good hands, and I look forward to creating a happy and comfortable experience for them while you're away. I’m usually not a very busy person so I have a lot of free time with my dog and hoping it can be with yours too! I provide loving and attentive pet care in both my home and my client's home. Having recently lost my own dog, I understand the importance of a safe and engaging environment. In my home, pets have access to toys, comfy bedding, and regular playtime. At a client's home, I follow their routines and instructions to ensure the pet feels comfortable and secure. Your furry friend will be well-cared for with lots of love and attention!

19. Stephanie D.

About: I've had pets and cared for pets the majority of my life. I am good with dogs and they normally like me. I joke all the time that whenever I am at a house the dogs tend to lay on my feet/sit next to me. I'll give your dog the attention he/she needs, play and snuggle them for as long as they'll let me. I am looking forward to working with you and taking care of your babies! We will have a fun time! I currently work remotely with a flexible schedule and can pop in on your pup every few hours during the week for walks or check ins. I am also a dog sitter for weddings with the company Pawfect for You, so while I have no ratings here at the moment, I’m very experienced with fur babes! I am very careful and attentive with dogs and would ensure their safety at all times. Leashing when needed, crating if necessary. I would follow any directions provided to a T.
