Amy graciously agreed to make 2 visits a day over a long weekend and arrived on time for each visit. She followed all the instructions I left and let me know she was concerned that one of my cats wouldn't eat. She communicated well and sent appropriate pictures. Thank you, Amy!

This is my third time booking with Heather, and she’s been great every time. She’s kind, pays attention to details and guidance, and clearly cares about my dogs. I always feel comfortable leaving them in her care.

Sarah was wonderful with the cats. I felt at ease knowing she was taking care of them while we were on vacation. She took care of them like they were her own and you do t get better than that

Ashely was beyond amazing from our first initial sit down to go over expectations and my pups schedule. She made sure to ask questions I didn't even think of and took the time to meet my 3 dogs. She provided them with such care and consideration for each of their needs and also sent me pictures with updates. I would highly recommend her!

About: I've been a pet sitter for about 15 years. My german shepherd came into my life 7 years ago which gave me another view of pet care experience. I have worked with and cared for dogs with anxiety, fear, aggression, and in need of extra cognitive stimulation. Okay with giving meds and teaching tricks. Currently, I'm working nursing shifts as needed, with running errands on my days off. I'm more often available than not and have flexibility to work around others schedule. I have a back door doggy door that leads into a fenced in back yard (approx half an acre). I also live in a small neighborhood (very little traffic) with about a mile loop for walks. My military and nursing experience makes me very type A. Everything is always clean, tidy, and on time.

About: I’ve taken care of numerous pets since I was a young girl. I’ve helped take care of cats, dogs, hamsters, and turtles. I currently help my mom in walking, feeding, and bathing our dog and two cats. My sister often relies on me to walk and feed her pets as well. I’m currently a college student, so I’m able to work part-time for dog walking and dog sitting at a client’s home. I’m available during the week, especially on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday. I’m able to travel to a client’s home to take care of any pets he or she has. I’m a lover of all pets, but I’m especially trained in caring for small and medium dogs and cats. I take my dog for a walk about three times a week, so I’m also available as a dog walker.

Jamie was able to come and meet my cat and learn his routine on short notice, was friendly, and my cat liked her. I was very comfortable with her and have scheduled her for drop in visits 4 days a week.

About: Ive taken care of dogs every size. teaching new tricks, going on walks, and ice cream is something I enjoy doing with a fur baby I currently work full time night shift. I work 12 hrs shifts so my other 4 days during the week are open to helping other animal lovers with their babies. Because without the help I receive on my work days I would b very stressed. I have an unfunded yard but I love going on walks. Me and my dog ( henny) are always going hiking, fishing, to the dog park, or just out for a car ride. Henny loves all dogs and has lots of energy to play.

About: Being a child of a veterinarian, i have a life time experience understanding how to understand and take care of a variety of animal especially dogs and cats. I have a lot of patience when it comes to puppies tho I do not have experience in training. But I have experience in specialized senior care. I do have some recorded vet assistant qualifications, I am able to administer many medication up to and including SQ fluids with confidence. It depends on the temper of the animal but I am willing to do basic grooming like nails, basic bathing and brushing. I am not a professional groomer but I have patience, skills and the love to keep animals clean and happy. I am an undergraduate student who is balancing classes and a part time job. Night time, mid day if possible, and morning check ups are going to be a constant schedule and easy for me to get to without much negotiation. Longer to overnight stays are possible but I have to disclose that it would be difficult to stay 100% with the animal especially during the week. I personally live in a small apartment with a cat so I would prefer to work out of clients homes if possible. I think it is important for any animal to feel comfortable, being in their own home would be the most comfortable environment for a pet when the owners are away. If at a clients house, I will follow what the animals personal schedule. For an example, if they get up at 7am every day and go outside to do their business, I will be there at 6:45 to make sure they go out on time. My first priority is the animals comfort and health and I believe that can be achieved with understanding how their life is when the owners are home. Routine is important to animals, even more important for senior animals.

About: I can do boarding for any friendly cat since I have 2 kittens but it would be hard for me to watch a dog in my apartment or board a dog so I would have to come to your house to watch your dog. For any visit that I will make to your house, I will make absolute sure that your dog is comfortable with me being there, then I will gain their trust so that every time I come back they will get more and more happy that their friend Nikki is coming to take care of them! If your dog needs a walk, don't worry! I have experience with a dog that weighs a good 100 pounds, so they can't run away from me! I'll even clean up after your pooch after they go to the bathroom, just to make sure your neighbors don't get angry with me! Also, any animal I meet I love, so that means any job I take, I will be more than happy to keep returning to your house, or walking your dog(s)!

About: At 23 years old, I've never had a moment in my life where I haven't had a dog. I've been raised with them and have had a total of 6 dogs. At any one point, the most dogs that use lived with was 3 so I have learned how to take great care of them. In high school, I was frequently tasked with dog sitting neighborhood animals. This included both dogs and cats. From my work, I've never had any pet owner be unsatisfied. My experience with dogs ranges from tiny breed to the humongous. I am available at all times of the week. I've recently graduated college and am starting an internship soon. However, this should minimally impact my availability due to being able to work on my internship from home. I live in an apartment with my little chihuahua, Gizmo. Due to not having a yard, I take him for mini walks about 4 or 5 times a day. If I housed an dog, I would take them out as frequently as well as regular walks. I have 1 other roommate that would also be able to provide loving for whatever pet may come out way.

About: I have had cats, dogs or both my whole life. I understand how important your pets are because I know how important mine are to me. I have experince caring for anxious animals and will be able to be patient and supportive for your babies if needed. I have cared for puppies to senior dogs and same for cats. My dog currently takes medicine multiple times a day so I have no problem giving out meds if needed. I know how stressful it can be to leave your babies behind to go on vacation or work trips. I am confident that I can help easy your worries and your pets stress. I have open availability as I work from home so I can spend the majority of the day with your animal. I work for myself so I don’t have a normal 9-5 in an office. I have pretty much open availability since I can work anywhere. I am pretty easy going and flexible so Im always down to work with you to come up with a plan or schedule that works for you. My long term boyfriend and I typically will tag team any bookings we get to ensure that your animals are not ever alone for longer than absolutely necessary. We prefer to both be present for any meet and greet so we can all get acquainted. We moved up to Johnstown from Austin tx this past summer & luckily have picked up offering this service up here. We are also typically can work long term stays. At my house our pets come first. I have 4 cats that run my household. I got my girl Kevin when she was less than 4 weeks old. She was abandoned by her mom or somebody. It was like having an actual infant in the beginning with the waking up at night to feed and help her potty. i am very capable of watching tiny kittens or even a litter. I adopted Binks so kev would have a friend and lose the only kitten syndrome she had. Binks is developmentally slow and partially blind she came from an abusive home before me so it’s taken almost 10 months for her to come out of her shell so I totally get it if your cat is a hider and just needs someone to come sit in the home for a bit. We recently also took in two kittens from the same litter. Their other siblings and mom died from a dog attacking them and then these two were left for dead. They were so tiny so I couldn’t just leave them when I heard about it. So now we have added Karl, & Toast to our family. Toast is our only little boy. I am comfortable with most dogs as well. I just would want to meet them with you present the first time. So for you with your animals I would treat them with the same amount of love I do with my own. My goal would be to make it as seamless of a transition as possible with yall being gone and me being there. I can stick to whatever they are use to whether it be crating them for bed or snuggling up together.
