12. Matthew M.
“I’ve had the pleasure of entrusting my pets to Matt on several occasions, and I can confidently say he is exceptional with animals. Matt has an incredible ability to connect with pets, providing them not just with care but genuine affection. My dog, who can be a bit shy around new people, immediately warmed to him and seemed to form a bond quickly. Matt is incredibly attentive, making sure my dog’s routine was followed, and he even went the extra mile to send updates and pictures so I could see how well my pup was doing. I never had to worry about my pets when Matt was in charge—they were not just well cared for, but truly loved. I highly recommend Matt to anyone looking for a responsible, caring, and trustworthy pet sitter.”

17. LilyRose B.
“LilyRose has always had a love for animals of all types. She cares deeply for them and isn’t the least bit intimidated by any dog no matter how big or small. Having had dogs all her life growing up, she knows exactly how to care for them and having a fun time while in her care. She has experience in caring for dogs since she was a young teenager, as that was her first paying job. Highly recommended!!”
18. Allyson W.
About: As a current dog owner myself I have great experience caring for pup and being in tune to its needs. I’ve also had previous experience dog walking through the Wag app, so I have thorough experience with walks and drop-in visits. I currently have a full time job but I work mainly afternoon and evenings so mornings are always a great time for walks and drop in visits! I make sure to strictly adhere to any instructions left by pet owners, and I always remain vigilant and prioritize safety first! I also make sure to stay in conversation with my clients at all times!
19. Linda B.
About: I'm a loving, caring & respectful person towards everyone but animals especially I feel like I can bond with them alot more easily. Had pets my hole life I know the basics of meal times keeping them hydrated,safe & over all well taken care of. I have been around all type of size pets and species and truly enjoyed them all. I'm a retired professional house keeper amongst other professions and dealt with pets in clients homes all the time. It made my day seeing them and getting to interact with them while I was complementing my tasks, so I think this career choice just makes sense to me. Recently moved to a home with a large back yard that I know your pet can enjoy and get their zoomies out also live right behind a school track so that can also be a form of exercise for the both of us 😊😁. I look forward to sitting fur babies of all breeds and sizes. Not intimated at all by the large ones they are usually the most cuddling ones.
