1. Theresa G.

“Teresa is such a find. She is great with Hank who can be a challenge with new folks, but she has great judgment, patience, the right kind of stubbornness and is a real delight. We couldn't be happier and highly recommend her.”


2. Anxhela K.
“I’ve had the pleasure of working with Anxhela for over two years, and in that time I’ve come to know her as one of the most calm, grounded, and caring people I’ve ever met. Her love for animals is obvious in the way she cares for her dog, Toby — they have such a sweet, trusting bond. She’s also spent time with my dog, Grita, and has always been incredibly gentle, patient, and attentive with her. Grita adores Anxhela and gets so excited whenever she sees her! I would trust Anxhela with any pet knowing they’d be in safe, loving, and responsible hands.”


3. David R.

“David did an outstanding job watching our dog, Trixie. He walked her often during the day, and had her out early in the morning and well into the evening. He came to our home the day before his scheduled time to meet with us, and to see the dog. He wanted Trixie to see us together with him, so she would be comfortable knowing that he was an accepted part of our pet family. He left our home in perfect condition when we came back from a brief vacation. David is a very nice person and he is well suited with pets. I would have David back in the future when his services are again needed. Roseann and Mike b”

“Eric was wonderful. I have an old ragdoll cat; he took great care of her - feeding, medication, grooming, cleaning her myriad litter boxes - for the two weeks I was gone. It gave me peace of mind to have him in the house. I am so glad I found him - I will definitely use his services next time I travel.”


5. Yvette B.

“I was so nervous about leaving our dog. My hunting partner. After I met yvette that all went away. She cared for my Izzy like she was hers . Long walks and lots of attention. Def use yvette. I will be again soon.”


6. Justine R.

“Justine stayed with our dog over the weekend while we were attending our daughter’s wedding. She was AMAZING in every way. It was so comforting to know he was in good hands and that allowed us to enjoy the weekend. She’s lovely and our dog is happy.”


7. Joseph M.
“I cannot recommend Joe enough , he took great care of our dogs. We had to two dogs Molly and JJ and he was so loving and compassionate. He made sure that all their needs were not only met but exceeded. My Dogs loved him and animals know when someone care for them. They were always always so happy so see him, even the mention of his name would send them to the door waging their tails. Any pet owner should be rest assured that their pets will safe, happy and well taken care of with lots of love.”


8. Gillian R.

“Gillian did a great job taking care of the pups. She asked all of the right questions to make sure they were comfortable and well taken care of. She communicated well with comments and pictures. When she came back to leave our key the pups were excited to see her. That’s all I needed to confirm she made them happy.”


9. Aletris C.

“Aletris was great with my dogs. She kept us updated and took care of them like her own. She went above and beyond will definitely rebook with her!”


10. alexa g.


“Alexa took care of Charlie from Friday afternoon to Sunday may16-18. She sent photos showing his walks and wakeups. Unfortunately he got into her box of chocolates so she took him to the vet. We were on our way home when this happened”




11. Elizabeth S.

“Elizabeth is so wonderful - she’s responsible, communicates clearly and often, but she especially is loving and caring to my Dogs. She takes such good care of them, and is so attentive, we feel so trusting that she will take such good care of them when we’re gone. Anyone is lucky to have her as a person taking care of their dogs. Highly recommend!”


12. Lindsey B.

“Lindsey was an absolute pleasure! She was kind and amazing to our girls! She was a respectful guest and updated us daily. Will be using her again!”


13. Judith L.
“Judith is a caring and patient individual who loves animals. I have observed her caring for pets, taking them on walks, feeding them. She is very responsible and all animals love her. Judith would make a great pet sittter and pet walker and any animal would be lucky to meet her. She is absolutely the best.”




14. Kaitlynn M.

“Kaitlynn was great! She always kept in touch the whole stay and the dogs seemed to really enjoy her! She’s also a vet tech so I felt very comfortable with her giving meds to my Allie for anxiety during thunderstorms. Would recommend her and definitely use her again!”


15. Nicole S.

“What a wonderful caregiver! She truly understood my dog’s anxiety and did everything she could to make him comfortable while I was gone.”


16. Emily M.
About: I've grown up with a dog my whole life and taken care of her personal needs. I also adopted my own cat and have been happily taking care of him for the past 4 years. Neighbors, friends, and a lot of family have come to me to bathe, walk, or care for their pets and I've always obliged happily. My pets routine mixes in with my own, for instance when I eat breakfast, I'll feed my dog and cat their breakfast as well. I set their schedule along with mine so I don't have to worry or stress about their needs. I am currently a senior at RWU and have a pretty open schedule to tend to your needs! My dog goes for at least 3 walks per day to insure she is happy and healthy while also fulfilling her bathroom needs. Making sure your fur babies needs are fulfilled while also keeping them comfortable and happy is the number one part to doing my job the best. Giving love to a lonely pet is my specialty. If you also have a pet that needs caring other than dog or cat, I work on a petting zoo and know how to care for barn animals along with rabbits and ducks.


17. Kyra L.
“My name is Kelley and I am a board member for Mountain Rottie Rescue. I personally have 4 female dogs that cannot be in the same room. As of 6/23/23 if you want to look at mountainrottierescue.net I have yoshi, gin and tyson. Krya is a volunteer with us and she is AMAZING with my dogs. I do not trust many people to come into my house as if you let the wrong door open I have dogs that do not get along. I COMPLETELTY trust Kyra so much she comes to my house when I am not home and takes 90 pound female rottie Yoshi out to parks and on walks. You need a good grip on Yoshi as she will lunge and pull when seeing other animals. Kyra completely understands the safety of this and has even taken Yoshi for weekends. Krya handles some harder dogs at my house and she loves them all. You would be lucky to have her pet sit for you if you can book her now! She even checks in on how my dogs are doing when she does'nt see them, she truly cares.”


18. Sara S.
About: I’ve been in absolute love with dogs since Jackson waddled into our lives when I was 9. I’ve been dogsitting cowowker’s’ pups (and cats) for the last few years and love everything about it. Happy to stay in the home; bonus points if the pups “have” to sleep in the bed with me 😁 I have more flexibility over the weekends but am free after 4 during the week. From July-end of August I’m a lot more of a free bird! My current home isn’t big enough for the favorite member(s) of your family, but I am very professional when staying at your home (I’ve never opened a single medicine cabinet). I love that I can keep your pets as comfortable as possible in their own home and am happy to do whatever funny breakfast or night routine that they need!


19. Kayla M.
About: Hello, my name is Kayla. I am a dog owner looking to care for other dogs. I will treat your dogs as if they are my own, and my own dogs are treated like human children! I love all kinds of animals and will be completely respectful of all your instructions, just as I'd want someone to be with my own pets. I am also happy to send videos from our visits together . I treat peoples homes as if they were my own. I make sure things stay clean and organized. I know how stressful and nerve-wracking it can be to find someone to care for your fur baby, give me a chance and I will provide your baby with all the pets, treats, love and care needed! I currently have a full time job, but always available after 4 and on weekends. Great for someone who works late hours and cant get home to their fur baby. I’m able to give your dog all the attention needed, and they would never be unattended. Just tell me about their usual day and we’ll make it happen! Looking forward to meeting your furry family member, and I’ll love them like they’re my own!
