5. Eric & Valerie F.
“Val and Eric took care of our dog while we went away for a week. The sent us photos everyday and videos of our dog just LOVING their fenced in back yard. Zoomies galore! Their dog Sherlock is the sweetest gentle giant and our dog loved being with him. Val and Eric treated our dog like their own and we weren't once concerned about her while we were away. The only concern we did have was when we took her home and realized she likes their yard better than ours :) She'll be back to enjoy is again soon.”

11. Brandi D.
“Brandi took care of my three pups for the day recently. She was very thorough and conscientious. My oldest dog had just had surgery so there was extra concern there about trying to keep them from playing too rough. It also involves keeping them I. Separate sleeping areas so that the other two wouldn’t lick his sutures. She handled all of this extra work very well.”
12. Adreanna M.
About: Ever since I was young I had pets in my household like Dogs, cats, fish, and even rodents ! I would also pet sit for my neighbors and family friends any chance I could get because I love being involved with animals. I recently graduated college and I work part time as a life guard at a community pool and my schedule is super flexible so I have a lot of time to myself and I hope to spend some of that time helping people care for their pets ! I take care of pets in clients' homes by following their usual routines for feeding, walks, and playtime. I keep their environment safe and provide toys to keep them entertained. I also keep the space clean and share updates with the client about their pet's behavior. My main goal is to make sure their pets feel happy and comfortable while they're away.
13. Shannon Lyver
“Shannon L. is a very responsible college student (dean's list), that takes every task she has to do seriously. She has a great compassion for all animals especially dogs ! She does volunteer work for animal rescue on her free time. And she treats very dog as if they are her own. You couldn't find a better person to care for your dog then her.”
