“My first time using Ericka to watch my dog Toby and I'm very pleased with the job she did. She sent me pictures of Toby each day which I enjoyed receiving. Toby requires eye drops 5 times per day so it's a bit of work to care for him. Also pleased that the house was in good order when I returned. I hope to use Ericka again in the future.”
“I had the pleasure of having Hannah stay at our home and spend time with our pup Olive. I couldn’t be more pleased with the experience. Hannah took great care of Olive, sending me regular updates and photos of their time together. She picked up on Olive’s quirks in no time LOL! I would definitely recommend Hannah to others, we will be reaching out to her again!”
“Sydney kept us up to date with communication and pics… she made sure our 1 dog was medicated and in her thunder jacket to help keep her calm thru bad thunderstorms went thru town several days in a row… Highly recommend her, tried to book her again but she did not have dates availably Thnx Sydney”
About: Hello! I have worked at a boarding kennel for 5 years and have volunteered at the Humane society for 2 years as well. I am comfortable with everything your pet brings to the table! I am proficient in understanding a dogs behavior, your dog will be in trusted hands. I am currently working remote on Wednesdays and Fridays and would love some more dog time! I am available throughout the days on these days. I am also available on weekends! I will be sure your dog has the most fun on our walks! I know my way around many types of harnesses/leashes/muzzles. I can’t wait to get my steps in with your dog!
“Lillian was excellent with our two large dogs who have different needs like scared of storms/fireworks and high energy, jumpy. She was great with both of them and made sure they had what they needed all weekend, while sending us pictures and keeping us updated. We will definitely contact Lillian again in the future!”
“Kristie took such great care of my cat & dog while we were away. They looked so happy in all the pictures she sent. My cat gets medicine several times a day, and she was awesome about that too. I will definitely be booking her again for all the times we are away. She herself is very kind, and is a pleasure to speak with.”
“Ella was great! She took excellent care of my anxious dog, and left the house in good shape. She sent me cute updates every day. I was able to enjoy my vacation knowing that the dog was well care for. I would use Ella again in a heartbeat!”
About: I've taken care of pets since childhood, and love them like family. I have both cats and dogs in the house and enough spacer to take care of multiple pets at a time, I work from home and am available every day, my schedule is flexible. I can take your pups on walks or stay in, per your preference. I have a fenced in yard and a pup of my own who loves other dogs and will keep them company. I have all the supplies, tools, crates, and a ton of toys to entertain them with.
“This is the second time we’ve used Kayla. She was great w our animals. She was also very accommodating and stayed several hours more than planned when our flight got canceled.”
“Jen was so great with my dachshund Cooper and 2 cats. She sent updates each day and took great care of our home while we were gone on vacation for 6 days. Our Cooper is slow to warm up but was snuggling here by the end of day 1. He even ran to say bye as she was leaving when we got home. We will definitely use her in the future to pet and house sit. Our vacay was worry free because we knew our babies were in good hands.”
“Erica was wonderful with my 8 month old mini golden doodle who has really bad separation anxiety. She helped keep her distracted and redirected her when she was barking for me. Look forward to booking another session. :)”
“We are so happy we found Ava! She was so sweet, kind and easy to communicate with. She stayed at our house and updated us throughout our vacation. Have no doubts our Maggie girl was in great care! Will definitely rebook. Thanks Ava!”
About: I am a 19-year-old college student who has animal caretaking experience and a love for animals. I have pet sat for years with many dogs and cats (along with small animals) and worked as a kennel and daycare attendant at FuzzyPazws Pet Villa for 2 years. I am a wildlife biology major in school because of my lifelong passion for taking care of animals of all kinds. I have administered medications to my own dog, as well as dogs at my place of work. I have in person classes every weekday, however, I am only on campus for 2-3 hours daily and have the remainder of the weekdays and weekends to care for pets! My classes take place in the afternoons, so I am available to stop in or stay over in the mornings and after classes. In my home, I have a dog, cat, 2 frogs, and 2 guinea pigs. I administer medications to my dog, feed and provide water to all of my animals, clean the litter box, frog aquarium, and guinea pig cage, and walk my dog on a schedule. In clients' homes, I do what is asked along with spending quality time with the pets. This could look like cleaning habitats, feeding according to instructions, providing stimulation, activity, and walks, or whatever the pet needs!

“Elena is great with animals, kind and loving. She feeds and neuters strays and helps provide warm shelters for them during cold months. She has several cats and they follow her on her walks outside, like dogs, it's fun to watch. They clearly love her! She is also good with dogs, they seem to like her instantly too.
