4. Rachel B.
“Rachel truly goes above and beyond with the pups she walks/watches. She made sure our pup felt comfortable with the fireworks due to it being the fourth. She even turned on some music to help calm our pup with the noise and text me to let me know and even came back to open the door so the pup could go hide under the bed in her safe place. Rachel makes it so I do not have to worry about our pup when I am gone. I highly recommend her! She will be our go to as long as we are in the area. She is always on time and leaves details summary of what went on. Again I can not recommend her enough or thank her enough for what she does!”

About: I love your animals as if they’re my own! I can provide any care that makes your pet feel special! I will love the ones that want attention or just show a face for feedings if that’s what you ask of me. You tell me, and I’ll make sure your pet is well cared for, as well as loved on! **Disclaimer** Your pet becomes family ❤️ *On a serious note, please do not send your pups w/ their favorite toy. I do watch other pets, and sometimes they do (like children) take it from them & misplace it. * There will be extra charges if food is not brought with your pet. * Please be honest and tell me the negative about your pet! They get here and show me all the negative, it makes for a bad experience and now you’re unhappy I’m messaging you asking if you can pick up early. *Please try to put the estimated times you will drop off and pick up. I schedule around that, and children have sport practice/games. I can always make sure someone is here for you and make it go super smooth if I can get communication. My home isn’t a boarding facility to freely walk around in, it’s my home. Please respect that. If I’ve stepped out, don’t help yourself into my house to retrieve your dog(s) Thank you very kindly!! I am a full time mom of 4 children, whom I homeschool! This is my source of income, as well as that sport funding for my children. I am available during the day at anytime as well as late at night on most nights if you need just a drop in care, I do overnight stays at times (gives me a breather from home) I board your pets in my home and treat them as my own. I can walk, pet, feed, etc all your animals in your home or mine. If they are in my home, I do let them play in my fenced in yard which is a little over half an acre, multiple times a day (weather permitting) Feeding times are done as you request, and those with special dietary restrictions or food aggression are fed separately. Kennels… IF you prefer your pet to keep the routine of being in a kennel at night, feel free to bring his/her kennel. However….i do like the pet to feel comfortable, and not stressed in their new surroundings, that myself or my children will love on them to calm them. They may get whisked away into a child’s bedroom and spoiled by lying on their bed for the night.

11. Glenn P.
About: Hello! I'm Glenn Peralta, a passionate animal lover with over 4 years of professional experience in pet care. My journey started with a simple love for animals and has grown into a full-fledged dog sitting business where I provide a safe, fun, and nurturing environment for your furry friends. I have a deep understanding of different breeds and their unique needs, and I am well-versed in handling all types of animals, not just dogs. My experience ranges from caring for energetic puppies to providing special care for senior dogs. I am also trained in basic pet first aid and CPR, ensuring your pet's safety is my top priority. My goal is to provide your pet with the same love and care they receive at home, making their time with me enjoyable and stress-free. I believe in building a personal connection with each pet, understanding their personality, and catering to their specific needs. Whether it's daily walks, playtime, or overnight stays, I am committed to providing the best care possible for your beloved pet. I look forward to meeting you and your furry family member soon! Pet care is not just a part of my routine, it's my lifestyle. Being home daily allows me to dedicate my time and attention to the pets I care for. I ensure that every dog gets walked every two hours, providing them with regular exercise and a chance to explore the outdoors. In addition to regular walks, I also follow a structured daily routine that includes feeding, playtime, and rest periods. I understand that every pet is unique and may require different care routines, so I always make sure to follow the specific instructions provided by the owners. Moreover, I also set aside time each week for deep cleaning of pet areas, toys, and bedding to maintain a clean and healthy environment. In essence, pet care is seamlessly integrated into my daily and weekly routine, ensuring that your pet receives consistent and dedicated care while they are with me. I offer both in-home and client's home pet care services, and my approach varies depending on the service chosen. In my home, I have a dedicated space for pets where they can play, rest, and eat. I ensure that the environment is safe, clean, and comfortable for them. I follow a structured routine that includes regular walks, feeding according to the pet's diet, playtime, and rest. I also make sure to give them plenty of attention and love, just like they would receive at home. When caring for pets in a client's home, I respect their space and follow the routines that the pets are accustomed to. This includes feeding them at their usual times, walking them in their familiar neighborhood, and playing with their favorite toys. I also ensure to keep the home clean and tidy, especially the pet's area. In both scenarios, I prioritize communication with the pet owners. I provide regular updates about their pet's activities, behavior, and well-being. I am also always available to answer any questions or concerns they might have. My goal is to provide a stress-free experience for both the pet and the owner.

15. Kaitlyn B.
About: There has never been a moment in my life when I have lived without animals. I have the biggest heart for animals and I will care for them as if they are my own. I have experience caring for all kinds of animals of all ages and sizes. I also have experience administering medication to animals, such as eye drops and pills. If your pet has struggles getting comfortable with new people, I have no problem taking the time and doing everything that is necessary to help them feel comfortable and at ease with my presence because I would never want to cause any stress or anxiety for them or you. I am currently in nursing school so Monday mornings, as well as most of the day on Tuesdays and Wednesdays I am unavailable as I will be in classes! Monday and Wednesday mornings i'm unavailable (sometimes this changes so feel free to ask), and Tuesdays I am unavailable until after 5pm! Thursdays and Fridays I am pretty open if I don't have an exam, but I will be sure to communicate this & it's normally only 2 hours out of the day that I am unavailable! In your home, I understand that is your animals territory and give plenty of time and space to get them comfortable with me and my scent before seeming like i’m imposing or intruding uninvited. I treat everyone’s home how I would want my home treated and leave everything just as good, if not better then when I arrived.

I have experience gaining trust from shy, skittish, and unfriendly pets. I always pay close attention to their needs and they will always be my first priority.
19. Denise B.
“I can't say enough good things about the care that Denise provided for our puppy (Chloe). Denise didn't just board Chloe but spent time with her and treated her like she was her own fur baby. With her only being four months old, my children wanted me to check on her and Denise was always available and would let us know how she was doing and sent us pictures of her looking happier than ever. I would never trust anyone else to board my pets. With Denise, you can feel confident that your pet will be loved and cared for while he/she is there. We will definitely use Denise for all of our future trips. Thank you Denise for taking care of Chloe for us. We'll see you again soon.”
