“I would recommend Lisa to anyone! I have a new little kitten and I was worried about leaving her alone. My kitten was so shy towards new people. By the 2nd visit she had lady coming out from under the couch and playing with her. Lisa is great at keeping you updated with a daily report and pictures! I loved seeing my kitten everyday and I knew she was in good hands. I will definitely rebook Lisa anytime I leave town!”

About: I grew up in a dog loving family, we always had 2 or more dogs in the home. For years my parents bred and showed Champion Rottweilers. As an adult my family has always had a pet doggo. They are great companions and deserve to be treated like a member of the family. I work 24 hour shifts with a rotating schedule and often have multiple days off throughout the week and the weekend. People's lives are so busy so I'm happy to help others with my free time. I've worked in public service and the medical field for over 10 years. I'm trustworthy and hardworking. I love helping others and will no doubt treat your home and pet with kindness and respect.
14. Madelyn M.
“It was great that our cats adapted quickly to Maddy. By the end of our vacation, it was clear they both cats, including our anxious Bobbi, were very comfortable with her. We really enjoyed the pics to be able to see that interaction. Also, both cats were very calm and unstressed when we arrived home. Great job Maddy!!! We look forward to the next time!”

About: A pet is like a child. You love them and want the absolute best for them. As a former dog mom I understand how hard it is to find someone you trust to take care of your pet and love them while you’re gone. That’s where I come in! My schedule is fairly flexible. I have a full time job and prioritize working out, but outside of those two items I’m fairly free and can work to meet your needs. I no longer have any of my own pets as my 14 year old dog passed away last year, but I help care for my parents cats often and love being around animals!
20. Danielle M.
About: I’ve taken care of many different breeds of dogs since I was 11. Family and friends have relied on me to walk, feed, let out, take to dog parks and play with their pets! My family currently has a 2 year old Golden Retriever who I’ve been put in charge to train. I’m not a professional dog trainer by any means, but I do know a few training tricks that I’ve learned throughout the years. I'm currently finishing my bachelors degree online, so I’m available for to let your dog out and/or walk your dog after 10am during the week. If you're looking for boarding your dog at my home or I stay in your home, I'm available anytime during the week and possibly into the weekend. I currently moved back into a house that sits on 2 acres of land, so there's a lot of room for your dog to run around. There isn't a fence, but there is an invisible fence for my current dog, Mojo. You pet will be able to make themselves feel at home when they come to stay. If I were to stay at the clients home I would respect what is asked of me. I have cared for a few dogs where I had to stay at the clients home and it makes it easier to care for the pets because they’re aware where they are is their home, so they will feel comfortable.
