16. Melissa H.
About: I've taken care of dogs for the past 5 year's. I grew up with a dog and a cat. I can come over for some play time or sitting at your house when you go out of town. I work at a daycare in Cordova TN from 7-4 but other than that I will be at your house if I'm dog sitting. I don't care for pet's at my home. I have roommates so I can't bring pet's to my home. Sorry for the inconvenience. I'm happy to come to you. I work Mon-Fri 7a-4p in Cordova. Other than that I will be at your house while I'm dog or cat sitting for you. I look forward to hearing from you. I give them plenty of play time and lot's of love and snuggles. If the client has a fenced in yard I will provide outside play weather permitting.
17. Jessie C.
“This is our third or fourth time partnering with Jessie for our petcare while out of town. She is consistent, reliable and wonderful in her care for our animals. Her communication is solid, and she sends pictures after each care session. Our animals are in good spirits when we return. We will be glad to count on her again in the future.”
18. Sabrina C.
“Sabrina is always our first choice. She is so loving and caring. I trust her 100%. I have never had any inconvenience with her. She is very flexible and has saved me in some last minute dog sitting.”
19. Chrystal C.
“Chrystal had a lot of experience growing up taking care of furry family members, but unfortunately the owners of those pets are unable to provide testimonials. I know she really wants to do this and she’s wanted to care for pets for years, but it hasn’t been something life offered her the opportunity for. She knows what she’s doing, and has experience, and just needs someone to take a chance with her. Trust me, you’ll be glad you did.”
20. Jennifer M.
“Jennifer is the best. The dogs love her and she was very attentive. She sent me wonderful pics and communicated often. She had a family emergency during her sitting time, but still made sure my pups were taken care of. YES!!! I will use her again.”
