9. Sarah G.
About: I have extensive experience in taking care of pets of all kinds, especially geriatric pets. I am adept at medication administration and other special services that need to be provided. I am currently employed full-time M-F and can be available to be with your pet before and after work, as well as on my lunch break. I am available during weekends to let pets out in 2-4 hour intervals. I walk my pet daily, and feed them twice a day. I also give my pets interactive projects (kong, lick mats, games) and play indoors when weather prevents us from going outside.

15. Christina G.
“Christina was amazing!! Our little Charlie has had a tough few months since he lost his sister. It’s been quite an adjustment for him and when we would leave him, he would be so sad all the time. Christina did a drop in with him, and when we came home, he was a happy boy. She communicated very well with us, and when he met her for the first time he fell in love. I totally recommend her!!”
16. Tonie B.
“Highly recommend! Upon reading the report card from Tonie, a comment was made from another dog owner, "Wow, you got a good rover." I was so nervous leaving my dogs, especially my ailing senior. When my normal dogsitter cancelled last minute, I was very hesitant having a stranger watch my dogs. Tonie did a great job. I actually prefer her over my other sitters.”
17. Jailee F.
“Jailee has been around pets all of her life. She has always enjoyed being around animals. Her help with our 4 dogs have been very helpful. She enjoys playing with them, taking them for walks and enjoys just taking care of them in general. Our dogs enjoy the love and affection she shows them on a daily basis. I can always trust Jailee with the dogs while I'm on vacation.”
18. Jamie B.
“Jamie has always cared deeply for pets. She lovingly takes time and care for each pet. She's good at walking them and making sure their eating and drinking even though they might be scared of being away from their family.”
19. Anahi D.
“Anahí is amazing with pets! She used to help me watch my dog Dulce when I’d have school. She’s the absolute best! Her Doggy Nova was truly loved 🥲💗🪽”
