3. Trisha S.
“Trisha is a person who truly enjoys caring for animals. She loves her own pets very much and would easily adapt to other pet’s needs. I would highly recommend her for pet sitting as she has a proven history providing great and loyal care to a variety of animals. She’s patient, kind and responsible.”

5. Brooke S.
“Brooke was amazing with my special needs dog! He doesn’t have full control of his bowels and bladder, and Brooke was kind enough to clean up his accidents and change his diaper. I felt so comfortable with her walking, feeding, and taking care of him. Brooke was also very responsive and easy to communicate with. I couldn’t have asked for a better person to walk my fur baby! Will definitely contact her again in the future.”

About: I’ve grown up with both cats and dogs in my family. I currently have a chocolate lab mix, named Maverick, that I spend most of my free time working with. I also volunteer at the shelter and get experience with all sorts of cats and dogs! I currently work part time and I would love to fill some of that extra time taking care of your pets! I normally work for around 6.5 hours during the day. I can shift things around if need be to better accommodate your pets’ schedule, but unfortunately I am unable to spend all of my time with them during the working week. I love to go on walks and would love to bring your pet along if they’re into that. If you have more of a couch potato, I’m totally happy relaxing with them as well. I generally try to keep their schedule similar to how it is when you’re home! I also have a very friendly pup that would love to play with another dog when the situation is right.

8. Sommer R.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for family friends and my own pets for almost 15 years! I’ve had about a ton of dogs throughout my life, most of them have been bigger dogs like labs or pittie mixes but I love dogs of ALL sizes!! Besides from owning a dog that is dog selective and has anxiety, I’ve worked at a doggie daycare/boarding facility so I have confidence in caring for dogs with anxiety or aggression!! I also am confident caring for senior dogs or giving dogs meds. I have a deep understanding of the unique needs and personalities of our furry companions. I believe that pets are family and deserve the same level of care and attention as any other loved one. That's why I strive to create a safe, comfortable, and fun environment for your pets while you're away. Whether it's long walks, playtime, cuddles, or just some good old-fashioned TLC, I am dedicated to making sure your pets are happy and healthy during your absence. I look forward to meeting you and your furry friends and providing them with the love and care they deserve! Let me be your go-to pet sitter for all your pet care needs! I have four dogs and three cats so I know a thing or two about pet care!! I’m very good with routines so if your pet needs special care I’m here! I’m very observant and your pup will never leave my sight outside!! I’m very good with routines so if your pup has a special routine I promise it will not be interrupted with me!!
9. Michaela W.
About: I have always had pets, but at this point in time, we are unable to have any pets of our own. Because of that, we would love to take care of yours when needed! I have experience with cats, dogs, and turtles - both in my own home and at others' homes. I have a young son (2.5 year old) who adores pets of all shapes and sizes, as well as a baby girl (10 months). I have a part time job, but I am home pretty much 24/7. I am able to accommodate your pet's needs when it comes to outside time (walks, playing, etc.), feeding schedule, and quality time. Pets in our home are a part of our family - they will be the center of our attention! We do not have a fenced in yard, so they would need to be leashed for bathroom breaks. There are several nearby parks we would love to take them to stretch their legs.
10. Edward A.
“Edward is great with pets. He’s very loving and caring. He has a few pets of his own and is great with them. He is a hardworking individual with a great work ethic.”
11. Nicole V.
“Nikki came in to our home while we were on vacation to let our dog out and did a great job. Her and my dog had never met but she made her feel comfortable when she came in. She could have just let her out to the bathroom and left, but I appreciated her staying for awhile and playing with my dog and her toys before leaving since she had been staying home alone for long days. She also ensured she had enough water and food each time she let her out while also ensuring she kept our house locked up and followed proper safety measures like taking our dogs collar off when she came back in the house. I would definitely have her come care for our dog again!”
12. Robert S.
“Robert is very nice and great with our dog Junior. He was easy to communicate with, timely, and even dried off our wet pup with his own sweatshirt! Would recommend without a doubt.”
13. Reilly S.
“Reilly is a phenomenal human being who is so sweet to my baby girl every time he watches her! He is caring and compassionate and they really enjoy walking together. Reilly has been a friend of mine for many years annd I often ansk him to watch my home annd pup while I’m away. I trust him with my life!”
14. Sadie L.
“Sadie is a reliable and responsible pet sitter, whom I have left my dog with numerous times. She continues to provide quality care and enrichment to my pet. Love her!”
15. Lindsey T.
“Lindsey has always been amazing around animals and truly has a wonderful and caring sense of love for them all. I would not hesitate for a second putting my dog in her care if we lived closer. I love that her and her family recently rescued a dog and have nurtured him with an unconditional love, who's making an outstanding recovery. Lindsey has a huge heart, and will undoubtedly be your fur baby's best friend.”
16. Cassie K.
“Cassie is an amazing pet sitter, every time she has taken care of my dog rose she sends me pictures and I know she’s in good hands. She’s very caring for dogs and thinks of them as family, this is why I feel so comfortable when she takes care of my dog. She stays and plays with my dog, and I will keep recommending her to anyone I know as a pet sitter.”
17. Ashley V.
“Ashley ia amazing! We ended up needing help walking 170lbs of enthusiastic puppy when we got sick and Ashley accepted the challenge, even at the last minute! Our dogs love her!”
18. Sarah B.
About: I have been around pets, specifically dogs, my entire life and I absolutely love being spending time with them. I also have worked for Wag! for the past few years and have enjoyed every minute of it. I am able to administer medication with proper instructions. I am currently a nurse with a flexible schedule. My husband and I work opposite schedules at times, so at least one of us will be here. He has also grown up with dogs and cats and is great with them! I understand the importance of respecting your property while properly caring for your pet. I believe I am a trusting and reliable person who will follow any instruction you give in order to care for your pet to the best of my ability.
