“Devinder was great! He was punctual, provided a great report and was very communicative. My pup seemed happy and refreshed when I got home. We will definitely be calling him again!”
4. Taylor H.
“Taylor is the most compassionate animal lover I have ever met. I have cats, dogs, and horses and Taylor has a natural instinct when it comes to caring for any type of pet. Some of my dogs are a little bit skiddish when meeting new people and I couldn’t believe my eyes when my dog instantly became social around her. Taylor is beyond trustworthy as I tend to get nervous leaving my pets for vacations and she does an amazing job with giving updates, sending pictures, and also making sure my pets feel loved and comfortable while I am away. Not to mention she does a wonderful job respecting my house when she has to come in and take care of my cats. Taylor has done a great job and I have nothing but positive experiences while she has watched over my pets. My pets love her and so do I! 🙂”

About: I have a genuine love for animals and am committed to providing personalized care. I take the time to get to know each pet's unique personality, ensuring they feel safe and comfortable while you're away. Ever since I was young, I have taken in strays, nursed them back to health, kept some, rehomed some, and over the years I have continued to love and care for animals. I create a nurturing environment that keeps your furry friends happy and engaged. Plus, I like to keep open communication mean you’ll always feel connected and at ease, knowing your beloved pets are in the best hands. I start each day by checking in on my pets' needs—feeding, exercise, and playtime are all prioritized. Throughout the day, I maintain a flexible schedule that allows for regular walks, enrichment activities, and cuddles. I work full-time 3 days a week, so my fur babe gets long early morning walks and even longer afternoon walks that end in a night time treat and snuggles and a movie before calling it a night. Whether it's monitoring their health or providing companionship, pet care seamlessly blends into my lifestyle, making every day fulfilling and joyful. Pets are leashed at all times, in my pet friendly neighborhood, my yard is not fenced, so we take a 5-minute walk to the park daily for adventure and bathroom breaks. I provide exceptional care for pets in both my home and my clients' homes by creating a safe and comfortable environment tailored to their needs. In my home, pets enjoy a cozy, pet-friendly space with plenty of room to play and relax. I maintain a consistent routine that includes feeding, exercise, and mental stimulation. In clients' homes, I ensure their pets feel secure by sticking to their established routines and following any specific instructions provided. I prioritize their safety and well-being, offering regular updates and communication to keep pet owners informed. Whether it's playtime, walks, or cuddles, I treat every pet as if they were my own, ensuring they receive love and attention while their owners are away.
