13. Cher S.
“Our dog always has separation anxiety when we are away. She also has anxiety during thunderstorms. During these times she needs constant human contact to help her with her anxiety. We asked Cher if she was able to dedicate a lot of time to help keep our dog calm, especially during thunderstorms. Cher stepped to the plate and gave our dog the care she required. Cher did a good job minimizing our dog’s anxiety and we didn’t worry while we were away.”

18. Abby S.
About: I've been caring for dogs and cats on and off for about 10 years for friends, family, and neighbors. With extensive experience in pet and house sitting, I offer a comprehensive service that ensures your home and pets are well-cared for while you're away. From daily exercise and feeding routines to administering medications and managing special diets, I ensure each pet receives personalized, attentive care. Whether it's a short visit or an extended stay, my goal is to provide peace of mind for pet owners while delivering top-notch care and affection to their beloved companions. I am a full-time student in the Dental Hygiene Program at SCF and don't have any jobs outside of this. My schedule is Monday through Friday, and two days are pretty lengthy, from 7 am - 4 pm. I’m skilled in maintaining a clean and secure home environment and handling mail collection, plant watering, and security checks. I make sure to stay in communication regularly with the homeowners and ensure their pets are happy and their home is well cared for.
19. Quinn B.
“Quinn was an exceptional cat and house sitter who truly went above and beyond during her stay. Not only did she provide excellent communication throughout, keeping me fully informed, but she also sent numerous pictures of my cat, ensuring I felt connected and at ease. Her attention to detail was astounding; she even washed my sheets and made my bed before leaving. Quinn's dedication and care are unparalleled. I highly recommend her services to anyone.”
20. Olivia G.
“Olivia took great care of my dog and cat while I was away. She stayed at my house and made me feel comfortable about leaving my pets for a few days. I would definitely recommend her to anybody who needs a reliable pet/house sitter!”
