Mallory has looked over my two dogs and cat for a few years now. She is the first person I think of when they need someone to look after them. My pets love her tremendously and always look forward to the time spent together. Mallory has no problem at all with the meticulous schedule I have for my animals. Always doing more than I ask which makes me know that I'm leaving my beautiful animals with a safe and caring person.

April was amazing with Hank and Lucy! She followed everything needed for our chocolate lab and golden retriever! We didn't have to worry at all while we were gone and we received pictures of the babies so we wouldn't miss them too much! Thank you, April! You were the best!

Despite booking with little notice, she made time to come meet the animals before her scheduled sitting. She kept us well informed of everything and all four of our animals loved her, including our German shepherd that can be a true handful sometimes. We got plenty of pictures during her stay and we'll definitely be entrusting out animals to her again in the future!

Maya is an incredible sitter! She is very confident and knowledgeable with my 92 pound pup. I am normally nervous leaving him with others because he does not do well with other dogs, but Maya put me to ease when we met. She sent frequent updates and pictures throughout her stay with my pup, which was very nice for a nervous mom :) thank you Maya for keeping my big boy happy and taking care of him so well!

Kayleigh is one of the best. My dogs absolutely love her and felt comfortable the first time they met her. She has an instant connection with animals and I would trust her time and time again to watch my baby girls (a wild Boxer and a laid back and loving Shih Tzu). Thank you for loving my girls the way I do, Kayleigh!

About: I have taken care of my family members. dog when I was 19 years old. I have also taken good care of both of my cats when i was 9 years old and help the mother of the kittens through her pregnancy at age 9 years old. I am very responsible in and taken care of your cute fuzzy babies I would be glad to have them. and I also have a pet bunny that is my baby that I am carrying for right now. I'm currently working part-time. I will have a lot of time to get to know them and build a great relationship with your wonderful babies that you love so much I would inform you that your babies are in good hands. I have an unfenced yard. I would take your dog or cat for walks and pick different spots to walk every week I have them so they can get a good experience with me. also, I would play with them have fun take them out on wonderful nature adventure walks. build a very loving respectful relationship even train them a bit.

Kripa is the most loving, gentle, kind, happy woman - mother. I witness her being the best most nurturing mother to her 1 year old daughter and to her entire fur family. Before birthing her own child she was always a cat & dog mom. She takes care of a farm with all the cuties including chickens. She can go above & beyond for your pet with administering medication if needed, etc. Your ohana will feel safe & happy in her presence. The peace of mind you’ll get with having Kripa care for your fur babies is priceless.
