“Jordan is very friendly and super responsive to messages; her dogs are adorable, too. She treated our pup as her own. She was also super accommodating as our dog needs medication four times a day and has crazy feeding times due to my husband's work schedule, and she had no problem with that. She was also willing to keep our dog even though she has high anxiety, and Daisy appeared to be very calm and relaxed in the photos Jordan sent. The fenced in yard is also reassuring. I highly recommend Jordan!”
About: We are a family of 2 kiddos, who love hockey and choir and bellybean brings us all the laughs and cuddles. The Family is easy-going and very understanding of life circumstances. We pride ourselves on personal attention given to your fur babies and adventures outdoors. We currently have one golden retriever who is three years old as of December 2024. She is playful and friendly, submissive and calm. Any questions are welcome. I’m home based for work and enjoy helping with projects objects within a company as a consultant. I am available for puppy attention, overnight and long-term care for dogs that are vaccinated and treated for flea and tick. We are busiest in the winter months with personal sports, and open to adventures throughout the year/day with animals included. We have a safe environment. I do keep our bedroom doors closed. If there’s anything else you’d like to know, please don’t hesitate to ask. Currently our pets are cared for not crate trained. Ing is an option however. I offer daily walks and multiple catch and throw opportunities daily.
“Mic took care of my puppy dog who started her first heat cycle the night before her drop off. He was extremely accommodating to host her in this situation. I would highly recommend him if you are looking for a pet sitter. He provided constant updates about hazel’s activities while my wife and I were away for a day trip. I will definitely choose him as a pet sitter in the future.”
About: I’ve always had animals in my house growing up. Anything from fish and turtles, hamsters, and many cats and dogs! I will never live in a home without an animal. I’m available any day of the week to walk, groom, or even board them overnight. I will just need a day ahead to note it. My yard is un-fenced, but I live in a small neighbor hood that is not busy. I also go outside with my dog to go potty and play.
About: Hi, my name is Melissa. I am 39 years old. I have had animals most of my life. I love all animals. I have 2 dogs Marlee and Murphy. I would be willing to take ur dogs for walks, watch them in your home including overnights and have them at my place (I have a big fenced in yard). I am very caring, trustworthy and honest. I have always had pets, so pet care fits into my daily life. I love all animals. I walk my dogs every day in the woods by my house as there r trails. They love it. I have a fenced in yard, wooded trails up the road from my house for walks and 2 friendly dogs to keep your furbaby company (sometimes they r at my parents tho, we share custody (LOL).
“Jake was super kind and helped us out when we really needed someone! He took excellent care of our dog and we will definitely be using him in the future! I loved all of the photos and updates he sent! Thank you!”
About: I grew up with cats since I was 8 years old, and adopted a husky puppy about 2 years ago. I have 2 kittens and 1 dog of my own. Since becoming a pet owner myself, I have grown passionate about providing the best life and the best care for my babies! I would love to help out the community and spend my spare time caring for your furry members of your family. Having 2 years of experience training and caring for a high energy puppy, I am confident I can provide top notch care, and treat your pets as my own. I am working full time at Dow as an engineer. I have every other Friday off, but I am also able to provide care after 4 o clock on Friday’s I work. I am free Saturdays and Sundays all day. With two kittens and a dog myself, I would prefer to provide house sitting services or drop in visits in your home. I can easily take your dogs out for a potty break, food/water break, and a walk for drop in visits. I can crate your pup as well. I am also more than happy to provide care for your kitties, such as litter box cleaning, feeding, and lots of cuddles and treats.
