“Heather has always had a love for animals , she’s one of the most charismatic person i’ve ever met. She is definitely a cat and dog mom, but she always has lived on a farm and took care of farm animals such as , llamas , goats , chickens, geese , pheasants ect. You can tell that her love for animals is so genuine and pure . She has pet sat my pure bred german shepherd (who isn’t the best with new faces ) and did a phenomenal job and didn’t run from such a huge task , as well as my 2 cats .”

14. Nellie F.
“When I met Nellie in September of 1989, she was a crazy cat lady, living off cereal, so her animals ate well and shots & what nots were all up to date. Nellie has been an animal advocate for as long as I have known her. I have seen her teach people how to be better pet parents or aid in rehoming the dogs that needed one! Her personality is upbeat and she makes friends everywhereshe goes. I trust that she would care for your pet as one of the family.”


15. Ashe J.

“She was great”


16. David E.

“David went above and beyond my expectations watching our old timer. I would recommend him to anyone who is looking for a responsible sitter. I appreciate the extra time he spend with our beloved pet. He is very responsive and even checked on the house to make sure our refrigerator was close as we left in a rush. A+ sitter and will use again.”


17. Isabelle J.

About: I’ve lived with dogs my whole life. I now have my own pitbull and live with 2 other dogs as well :) My pets are my world and I would love to take care of yours! I’m currently working part time with weekends and evenings off. I am flexible and able to care for your pet when I am not at my job! I follow the directions given to me by the owners in order to keep myself and others safe. I will make sure your dog gets everything they need!


18. Sara H.
About: I have a history of working with dogs in rescues, whether it be taking them for walks or grooming. I have had dogs of my own, and over the past year I have taken in over a dozen dogs of all ages, sizes and temperaments and taken care of them completely and help train them until they have found homes of their own. I have worked with special needs dogs that included giving them medications and providing some physical support. I have experience with seizure dogs. I currently work full time but am provided breaks throughout the day in which I can help to check in on animals and provide walks needed. I have experience in crating & rotating if needed. Dogs are let outside on a long lead to use the rest room and are on leashes as we walk around our property in the country.


19. Issac R.
“Issac has a natural talent connecting with dogs and properly training them. I’ve seen him invest countless hours fostering and lovingly correcting dogs who need a strong and loving leader to settle into their potential. He’s also a great teacher of humans! His genuine curiosity, capacity to explain, patient presence, and acquired knowledge all make learning techniques of being a good dog parent from him easeful and a pleasure. I can’t recommend Issac enough. Four out of four paws 🐾 🐾”


20. Bergen W.
“Bergen is a natural around animals. She has a kind and loving spirit and is very responsible. She has cared for our dogs when we are away, and she always ensures they are well taken care of, played with, and given much love. I would highly recommend her if you are looking for someone to care for your beloved pet.”
