1. Tara & Kathryn S.
“Holy Wow! Molly usually is suspicious of new people. Loved Tara immediately. The beginning of the day was doing her usual behavior when someone is gone and got great communication about it. By night Molly was in bed with Tara! When we got home she was snuggled up behind her and didn’t even notice we were home! She has bad separation anxiety and was completely calm and happy. She loved on us and went to sleep! You’ll have to fight us for Tara now lol she’s amazing!!!”

7. Kaitlynn S.
About: I have been relied on to care for friends, family, and neighbors pets since I was old enough to take responsibility. When I was 14, my helping of peoples pets started when I watched a family friends dog for 4 years during week days and occasional weekends. I worked at a doggie day care facility for 4 months at the end of 2021, doing all duties that go into caring for our furry friends. I went to college to get a degree as a Veterinary Technician for a year and a half. During the time of schooling I worked in a vet clinic and took on the job role as a kennel technician, helping out with anything and everything I could get my hands on. I dropped school because of personal and external obstacles but would love to go back in the future to finish. I only aim to please and never disappoint! Please choose me to be your pets new best friend! Currently have a very flexible schedule as I am unemployed at the moment. My weekends are usually not too busy, please feel free to reach out with any questions! When caring for pets in a clients home, I am sure to make sure that I am careful when first meeting animals as I know it could be dangerous because of their protectiveness. I make sure to look over instructions twice, and double check that all to-dos are completed before leaving the clients home. I make sure to potty before I leave each time to avoid messes and make sure that they get exercise/attention during my time with them, as I know they feel down without someone home with them.
