Playful as can be

Pet care experience

Animals love me and I love them. I couldn’t tell you exactly what I do to make them love me but they do. I have a friend whose animals will shun her after her leaving for a few days or weeks but it never happens when I watch them so now I’m the only one she trusts. And I have a list of families who will vouch for that same sentiment. I will snuggle, play, walk, and talk to your animal as if they were talking back to me and love them as my own. I grew up with all different types of pets and I currently have two cats of my own (Miriam is 2 and Webster is almost 1). I work full time so I’m mostly looking for anything early morning, lunch break walks, or evenings. Overnight stays are no issue for me as long as you’ve got WiFi ? I’m on Rover to try and earn extra income as I hope to enter business school to get my MBA in the fall. We can help each other!

Zippy did a great job with our dog. We were gone for two weeks and when we got back we were greeted with a healthy, happy pup. She stayed in consistent contact with us and was very responsive if we had questions while we were away. Our dog loves her and we will definitely be asking for her help again in the future.

I've hired Zippy to dog sit (and cat sit!) several times. In addition to being extremely reliable, she's also really great with my dog, Tucker. I know he is always being loved on and well taken care of when Zippy is dog sitting. I don't have to worry about things like forgotten medication or late feedings - Zippy is on it. Overall, she's fantastic and I highly recommend her!

Zippy is a friendly, attentive, and communicative pet sitter! She is who we ask first any time we are going out of town and need a pet sitter for our cat, Bon. Zippy even texts me picture updates of him which is extra reassuring since I miss him while we're gone. He has a high-maintenance diet with his feeding schedule, but Zippy handles it like a pro and I know that he is in good hands with her. I highly recommend Zippy for next time you need a pet sitter!

My one fear of hiring a dog sitter is that they will only stop by to feed my dog, let them out, and then leave. That is not what you get when you have Zippy watching your dog. I like hiring Zippy because she not only feeds and walks my dog (Duckie), but she will play with Duckie and is even down to become Duckie's bed (my dog has zero concept of what personal space is when it comes to sleeping). I would highly recommend Zippy for walking/feeding/staying over to take care of your dog or frankly any pet that you have. She is very trustworthy and responsible and the real question is why haven't you hired her sooner!?! 5 stars (If that system existed on this platform for reviews)
