1. Caroline R.
“SO fabulous! Caroline is the best dog sitter. We’ve hired her twice so far to care for our little rescue dog while we were away on vacation. Our dog gets pretty anxious when we leave. She takes such great care of him! She’s particularly good about sending photos/videos for each visit and a message about how our fur baby is doing. Punctual, responsible, and so kind!”

3. Tram N.
“Tram was so quick to respond when I had a last-minute request. She was great with my husky Delilah and tired her out on a generous long walk. So glad I found someone close to us I can count on when I need an extra hand with my pup. Thank you, Tram!”

About: I’m an avid animal lover with experience working with a variety of animals. I'm currently taking a gap year from school and with the extra time; I would love to help you out. Growing up, I cared for dogs, cats, birds, and horses. I have always had a good connection with animals because I believe every one of them has a unique personality and individual needs. I have plenty availability on weekdays to walk, pet sit, and drop-in. I'm out of town most weekends but if scheduled within 2 weeks in advance, I will make myself available. Whether the service be a walk, drop-in, or pet sitting; I will treat your home with the uttermost respect. I promise to keep your beloved pet(s) comfortable and safe.

13. Anna J.
“Ever since we adopted our dog from the pet store, my daughter has been dedicated to loving and caring for her. During her upbringing, she took on the responsibility of walking not only our dog but also our neighbor's dogs around the neighborhood. Using instructional videos, she trained our dog to perform numerous tricks. Now, as she has grown older and more capable, she is eager to expand her experiences by caring for other dogs. Her passion for dogs and her wealth of experiences make her well equipped for the responsibility.”

I highly recommend her, besides having a special ways with dogs, she is a very reliable young girl.”
