Regina truly went above and beyond caring for my dog. She made sure that their time together was well spent and he seemed very happy in all the photos I saw. Would 100% recommend her to anyone!

Taylor watched my two cats over Thanksgiving. She tried her best to make the visits fun, giving them treat puzzles to do and playing with their favorite toy. Most importantly, she planned ahead when a snow storm was coming and gave the cats extra food and water in case the power went out.

Nikki was so good with our two rescues! I appreciate that she came ahead of time to get acquainted with them, and she was so friendly to work with.

About: I've always had at least one dog my entire life, and right now my family has 2. My parents always wanted me to be a dog trainer when I grew up, so this is close enough! I love all animals, and started taking care of my neighbors dogs at 14 years old. I'm a college student looking for something to do over the summer, and I would love to spend my time taking care of your dog(s)! I do basically nothing until August so I have an very flexible schedule. I can adapt to any type of home, and am good with anything. Once you tell me where everything is, I'll be good from there.

About: I have been taking care of animals since I was a kid. I grew up owning dogs, small rodents, and fish. I pet sat for several families when I was in highschool and I am on-call for my friends if they ever need a sitter. I currently have 2 dogs and 2 cats and they are my children. I am an excellent communicator and, if you'd like, you can expect pictures both flattering and not of your pets. I am currently in school and have class from 9-3 with breaks for lunch during the week. I can be available every weekday except for wednesdays throughout the day for drop-ins. I will treat your animals as well as my own. I am a fan of routines and will abide by yours to the best of my ability. I know how important consistency can be to make pets feel safe when their people are away. I am not able to board animals at my home.

This is the second time Taylor has taken care of my cats. I really appreciated how creative she was thinking of ways to get my reluctant cat to eat her wet food meal. Thanks for all your hard work Taylor!

Nathan was so amazing. We were gone for an entire week and nervous as we had never left my cat for this long. He was so detailed and on time every day for his drop ins. I was able to really enjoy and not worry! He even had to deal with a snow storm, getting locked out of our place (an apartment problem, not his), and went above and beyond for our pet care. I would absolutely recommend him and will be rebooking! Thanks Nathan for loving on our kitty!
