“Patricia is absolutely wonderful! Always on time. Very patient. Great communicator—even sends photos of our guys with updates about the visits. They just love her! The peace of mind she provides is immeasurable.”
“This was the first time we’ve ever hired someone to walk our dog. Kimberlee was an absolute professional and was amazing with Poppy during our meet n greet. So amazing in fact that I had not one worry about our pup’s care while I was away. I’ve already hired her for a second round—she’s terrific and I am grateful!”
About: I have two cats that have a good relationship with me and each other. I frequently find them snuggled up and/or licking each other! I am able to administer medication both in pill and syringe form. I also have a love for dogs and have plenty of experience walking them! I always have time to play with my cats, feed them, change their litter boxes, you name it! I give them love every day, whether that be scratches, being held, kisses, or anything they like! I am free Sundays after 1, Mondays, Tuesdays after 5, Wednesdays before 2 or after 8, Thursdays before 10 or after 5, Fridays, and Saturdays. There are a couple Mondays or Fridays a month that change and I will put those here as they arise. I have two cats that love meeting new ones, but they can be set aside from your cat if needed. I have toys to play with cats, including catnip sacks, a cat toy fishing pole, and a laser pointer.
“Vanessa kept her word and showed up on the days contracted for allowing me to go out of town on a business trip. Both my mother and my dog (Coco) were pleased with her. I hope she is available again in the future.”
About: I have been taking care of dogs since I was 12 years old. I love dogs so much and I want people to have a good time on vacations and work days without needed to worry about their fur babies I go on morning walks with my German Shepherd Max and then a little while after the walk I feed him. He takes a nap while I lay down next to him or we both sit downstairs and I watch some tv. I take him outside after a couple hours then wait a couple more hours to feed him again. A little bit after his lunch I play with him for how ever long it takes for his energy to get out again. I let him rest and take him outside after he’s rested. Then around an hour before bedtime I feed him and when it’s bedtime I take him outside and we go to bed. I have an unfenced yard but will make sure that they are leashed if needed. We have a decent sized house so we have the space for a crate, if needed.
About: I've taken care of my neighbors animals of all kind (cats, dogs, fish) when ever they go on vacation or out of town. I love getting to know all animals and there personalities. I do work part time but am looking to get extra money to help me pay for cosmetology school. So whenever I am not working I am willing to take any pets for walks when ever I can! I will make sure that all animals are safe by using leashes when going for walks and making sure to respect the clients home whenever I do come to take care of a animal.
About: Caring for animals has always been a passion of mine. Friends, neighbors, and loved ones have all sought my care for many years for both their dogs and cats. Being a teacher, I love to help care for your pets when I can! I have very open availability for walks, daily care, and overnight care. I work as an elementary school teacher during the majority of the year, but I love to help care for your pets when I can! Each pet and each household is different, so catering to the needs of each pet is a priority. Following diet instructions, making sure pets get proper play and exercise time, and lots and lots of love are all priorities of mine.
About: I was born into a home with a dog and a cat, and we kept it that way for my entire life. I was tasked with caring for our pets before babysitting my little sister, but I found the experiences quite similar in importance and responsibility. Over the course of my life, I’ve had dogs, cats, fish, and guinea pigs. Each of these little lives have taught me something, and I’ve loved caring for every single one. I am working part time jobs in the mornings and evenings, which leaves the daytime wide open for playing with your pets! I keep weekends as open as possible for frequent trips. I don’t just care for pets like they’re my own, but I care for them like children, worthy of love and respect. I honor their needs for enrichment and engagement as much as I prioritize their basic needs, like food, water, and shelter. I do my best to leave everything in your home exactly how I found it, as I know how important familiarity is to comfort.
About: I've taken care of all kinds of animals since I was a teenager! I will take care of all your pets needs! From dogs and cats to birds and rats, I love them all. From puppies to seniors, I will make sure they get all the love and attention they need while you're away. I have a very flexible schedule and I can work around all of your pet needs. I'm available on weekends, overnight and extended stays if needed. I have 4 dogs at home that love playdates, a fenced in yard and a dedicated area for them to have some down time away from all of the action.
“Christine is a gem! My dog loves her and she is sweet, super responsive, and reliable. She takes lots of pictures and always makes me feel like my furry baby is in good hands.”
“Had a last minute booking due to another Rover having to cancel from emergency and Donald was so helpful. Very communicative and professional. Would recommend his services.”
About: I’ve always had pets in my life and I would love to care for yours! I have some experience volunteering at a shelter and sitting for my relatives. I’ve always loved helping them and now I can’t wait to help you and all of your fur babies! I’m currently working part time and have plenty of time to care for your fur babies. Most days I am available after 4pm and I am always available on weekends! I live in an apartment that I cannot dog sit at so I am currently not accepting new doggy daycare or boarding clients. Thank you!
“Karly is THE BEST!!!!! She walks my pup, Fuzzy, every day and takes such good care of her. She has gone above and beyond to help me- Fuz is reactive and takes a good bit to warm up to people, and Karly went out of her way to get to know Fuz, and is amazing at communicating/ returning messages/ reaching out with any questions or concerns. Fuz and I highly HIGHLY recommend!!!”
