Jess took great care of my Kona and Daisy. They tend to be a little shy when their mom and dad are not around. She was very patient with them and allowed them the time to have them warm up to her. Towards the end, they were all best friends. She also sent great Rover Cards and pictures! Definitely will give her ring again.

About: I’ve taken care of a variety of personal and others’ pets from an early age. I’ve worked in a nature center taking care of wild animals, including birds of prey. I’ve always had a love of animals! My husband is active -duty Coast Guard and we moved back the the area in August of last year. I have availability throughout the week to accommodate a variety of needs. I look forward to creating personal care schedules to fit each families’ needs. For my home care, I offer multiple walks each day and my own well-behaved dog and cat for social needs. We are working on an enclosed backyard space for longer, free outdoor play time! Pickup and drop off service is possible. For client home care, I can be flexible, depending on the needs of the client.

About: I am Fear Free Certified, with 2 years of professional experience in animal shelters, and upwards of 5 years personal experience with pets of all shapes and sizes. I specialize is animals who need extra attention, like dogs who struggle with resource guarding or reactivity. My goal is always to relieve any animal of fear, anxiety, or stress. My schedule is open and flexible! I understand that things happen, and we aren’t always able to book a sitter a week in advance. I always do my best to keep my schedule open for same-day bookings Every pet parent does things their own way! I cater to each parent’s routine and rules. If your little one needs a slow and steady approach, I’ll always match their speed. If your dog has high energy and a high prey drive, they’ll be tuckered out and happy by the time I leave.

Highly recommend Kellie! She was wonderful with our pets despite having to take care of a grumpy Pyrenees on antibiotics. She kept us updated and sent pics as well. We will definitely use her for our pet sitting needs again.

It was my first time leaving Willow since we welcomed her to our family but after meeting Rebecca my mind was at ease. You can instantly see the love she has for all fur babies!! Highly recommend and we will definitely be seeing her again!!!😊

About: I have owned several dogs throughout my life. Small to big dogs as well as cats. I now own a German shepherd who just turned one in December and have trained her from a puppy. I have a big back yard and love animals. I have experience walking dogs of many sorts and have baby sat for several people before with dogs of all sizes. I have water dishes and food dishes for dogs and leashes and live in a neighborhood thats friendly and not too busy so it would be perfect for animals to walk in.

About: I have had a love for animals my whole life! Throughout my summers in high school I volunteered at GMHS as a way to give my time back to the community. I now have a 3 year old Jack Russell/Beagle mix named Nova, and we do everything together. I also have 2 cats Jake & Bailey, and a Leopard Gecko named Leia. I do work full time M-F, however I dedicate my weekends to spending time taking Nova on longer walks and having extended play time, and she loves having guest! I will treat your pets as if they were my own. I usually take Nova out to parks often, and out for play time in our back yard. She is very welcoming to guest and loves having someone to play with. If you are comfortable Nova and I would love to have guest join our walks and play times!
