5. Khalid F.
““I highly recommended Khalid as a dog walker. He walked my Labrador, Max, for over a year, and I couldn’t have been happier with his care and professionalism. Khalid was always punctual, communicated any updates promptly, and genuinely loved dogs. Max got so excited every time he arrived, and I could tell he was well-exercised and happy after their walks. He even sent me pictures and updates during their time together, which gave me peace of mind. If you’re looking for someone reliable and compassionate, Khalid was the perfect choice!””

8. Melanie H.
“Melanie was fantastic taking care of my cat, Jimmy. I went out of state for Christmas and had her come twice a day for a week to feed him and clean his litter box. She sent me pics, videos and notes the whole time which was comforting since I had never left him for more than 2 days before this trip. She even took my trash and cleaned out the sink of his bowls. I can definitely recommend Melanie!”

10. Patricia U.
About: After hosting dogs in my home for many years I’ve recently relocated where I am unable to have pets. I’m looking forward to staying connected to animals by providing my well reviewed care in other peoples homes. I’ve has had many years owning, breeding and training dogs, and had cats, monkeys, and reptiles as pets. So your babies are in good hands! I look forward to meeting you and your pets soon! Why I love dog sitting Patricia has been owning, loving, training, raising and caring for dogs for over 30 years. I grew up in Colombia, S.A. where we always had dogs both to play with and dogs to keep the property. Then I decided to breed and raise miniature Collies. Then with my own family and kids, we lived in the Amazon jungle where I was a teacher, and we had the best dog ever, a Cockapoo named Orito. He was the best Iguana chaser you have ever seen:) My experience administering medication I can certainly take care of any med issues you may have with your pet. I’m semi-retired and love to cuddle and care for pets in their own homes. I recently moved and can’t have pets of my own. My schedule is very flexible. I treat your pets like my own. I am very responsible and take the time that is needed to make sure your babies are loved and well cared for.
11. Shelley Q.
“My name is Glenn. For 8 years, I lived in my sailboat, with my furbaby, Kona. He is so very special to me. He turned 15 years old, this year. He rides with me on my Harley Davidson motorcycle. He was born the same day, my dad passed away. He acts exactly like my dad. My best friend. A couple of years ago, I had to leave Kona with Shelley. Shelley was the manager of the marina where I and Kona were moored. If Kona wasn't on the boat, he was with Shelley. I had no doubt. She loved and cared for Kona with the same adoration I have.I was buying my house in France and I couldn't take Kona with me. I was to be gone for 3 months. It was without reservation, when I asked Shelley to take care of my furbaby for the extended period. Kona, Shelley and I were secure with the arrangement. When I returned to get Kona, he had been groomed, washed, and catapulted into my arms like a fresh puppy. She had maintained the strict diet, exercise and disciplines I had in place. It was without a doubt, the best arrangement I could ever hoped for. If you want the very best, you should go with Shelley and your furbaby will have the best of arrangements. Glenn”
12. Toni B.
“Toni did a phenomenal job with my puppy with very short notice. She was very responsive and patient with my pup and made sure to give her lots of love while I was gone. She made sure she was comfortable and send pictures and updates to me. Will definitely be using her in the future when I need a sitter ✅”
13. Kellee B.
“She is such a great sitter I needed her last min on a holiday and she was right there for Daisy! Thank you so much we will use her as our regular sitter!”
14. Brittany V.
“Brittany did an excellent job. She was very reliable spent a nice amount of time with our dog and made sure that he was well cared for. She communicated frequently and sent us photos of the dog. All of these things made me feel very comfortable. Hope to utilize her services again. You can tell how much she loves dogs!”
15. Kayce M.
“Kayce communicated very well with me and took such good care of Tucker! She was prompt and on time with her visits and ensured to keep him busy the entire time she was there. I received many pictures that helped reassure me he was in great hands! We will definitely have Kayce come back in the future!”

18. Casey B.
About: I grew up with dogs of all sizes! I have a little dachshund named steel who is a couch potato with the occasional zoomies as well as a 6 year old son who loves anything furry and sweet. I work 8:30-3 but only 7 mins from home and can pop in on my lunch if needed. Otherwise home and ready to play with fur babies I do not have a fenced in yard but do have space where they could get their zoomies out. Welcome to be on furniture and even better if they snuggle my kiddo in bed.
19. Samantha K.
“I have 2 dogs and 3 cats, Samantha has been a blessing. It is hard to trust new people, it is a relief to find someone you can leave the worry behind when you are away from your pet/s. Her knowledge and experience was enough for me not to hesitate, plus she is the sweetest person and my animals agree. My shy cat greets and eats for her, not even my family could get him to come out! So thankful to have her take care of my pets!”

About: Hi there , I just have always had a love for animals , I am currently a full time student on my way to become a veterinary technician as well as working full time in a vet clinic. I am open to watching your pets if they get along well with other dogs/small kids, with my work schedule it would be best to watch at my own home but depending on the situation and distance I could possibly stay at yours as well ! I have 3 days off during the week so depending on the scenario I can always bring your pets to work with me as well so they are not alone. I already work with animals as my job and love being around them. I have a good experience and it’s really just part of my daily routine Just whatever is instructed for me to do , I want to make sure everything is fear free and I am able to bond with the pet and help with their nerves and just make sure they have a good time
