“Ashley is amazing! She communicated with me so well and treated Orzo like her own. I’m so happy I found her and am rebooking for next week!”


4. Nancye D.
“If you can trust anyone with the safety and care of your pet, it would be Nancye. Nancye cared for her last rescue pet till the bitter end while holding her paw at the vet. Her pet was disabled for the past two years in which she had her whole home fixed for her precious pet to be comfortable with clean diapers constantly. Had a back legged wheels for her to be able to motivate long as possible. Nancye has a heart full of love to give any pet. I know she keeps the local pets in treats and clean water when needed. My Labradoodle fell in love with her the first thing. There should be no one ever to worry about leaving their pet(s) with her. She has had a pet most of her life and still has room for more love to give.”


5. Helen B.
“Helen is a compassionate and kind-hearted person. She has rescued 6 dogs and helped with two puppy births. I was amazed that she helped with the two litters- but she did so with ease and helped the mommas have a successful births with all living pups. She is active and loves to explore. She enjoys taking dogs on nature walks and exploring the area. If the pup needs some extra TLC, Helen is there to provide snuggles and snout kisses. She is incredibly receptive to a dog's behavior and wants them to feel comfortable. Having Helen as a pet caregiver means your pup will be safe and loved.”

10. Whitney C.
About: I have been rescuing animals since I was a teenager! Dogs have always been what really make me smile. Although I am Nurse for people, I like to think I’m an even better Nurse for doggos! I’ve cared for animals with conditions from mange to heart failure to difficulty with mobility. While your baby is with me, I will treat them like my own! That includes all the snuggles and love they want! Pet care is second nature for me. I love getting to meet new babies! My pups love other animals as well. Between my wife and I, someone is always home. All animals are different and prefer different things. Our house has a fenced in yard so you baby will be able to sniff around and get comfortable with their surroundings without being on a leash.

18. Alexandra S.
About: I have grown up with pets my whole life. I have had chickens for about 7 years and 4 dogs for over 15 years. I also have some experience with other animals as well. I grew up with three German shepherds and a crazy hyper Jack Russell. We bred our two german shepherds and kept one puppy from the litter so I do have experience with puppies and the patience to take care of them. The two shepherds I grew up with passed away due to sicknesses so I also have experience taking care of sick dogs and giving them the extra special care they need! I have also taken care of friends pets numerous times. I have always had a love for caring for animals and getting to spend quality time with them. Growing up surrounded by all sorts of pets has given me the skills of patience and how to give the correct care and attention each specific pet needs. I’m currently in school for the medical field and have a pretty full schedule in the mornings during the week. But I have a clear schedule Friday, Saturday, Sunday, and am available in the afternoons during the week. I live in the countryside with many acres of open land so I have plenty of space your pets can roam around, play, and not have to worry about keeping them on a leash when they are being watched. If my client is not comfortable with letting them go without a leash I also have an extremely large fenced in area that small dogs to large dogs cannot get out of. I do have a Jack Russell who is old so I keep other animals away from her to make sure she is safe and not at risk of being hurt since she is older. I also have a German shepherd and she is all love and cuddles and enjoys play time with other dogs and would love another furry friend to play with!

20. Madison F.

“Madison took care of both of our dogs while we were staying at Claytor Lake State Park. She came over twice during the day and even did a meet and greet the night before. She loves dogs and took great care of our Penny and Lucy. We would definitely use her again and would recommend her to anybody. One of our dogs is human-shy and she warmed up right away to Madison!”
