I would trust my dogs with Robin every day of the week and twice on Sunday! She followed instructions specific to my dogs and was very loving and affectionate and respectful. I did not worry one single bit while I was on vacation!

Priscilla is kind and bonded with my dog instantly. This is my first time using a service like this and I can't tell you what a relief it is to know my dog is loved by her as much as I do. Highly recommend.

About: Dogs have been a part of my life since I was a child. I volunteered with a local rescue group for 10 yrs. As a result I have fostered dogs, and I have experience with many breeds, sizes, and personalities. Personally, I have owned 3 German Shepherds (they are my favorite!) in my lifetime as well as a mixed breed dog. I currently work part time (mornings) M-F, so I am available in the afternoons and evenings to walk and play with your dog while you are at work or away. I am available most weekdays after 12:30pm. I always walk dogs on leash and am very mindful of their safety around people and other animals. Even if your pet is dog friendly, I am very aware that not all other dogs are! My yard is about 3/4 acre fully fenced and an option for use/play. My home is also equipped with a crate if your dog is more comfortable sleeping/resting in one.

About: I've been working with animals for over 10 years. I love them all! I've done pet sitting for all types of critters over the years...from rabbits and ferrets to chickens, dogs and cats. My goal is to keep them happy while family is away. A happy pet is a stress free pet. Whether it be walks, cuddles on the couch or ball in the yard, we will do what's needed to be content. Having experience in a veterinary setting, I'm also qualified to administer medications to any pets that may require it. I'm the mother of 2 beautiful girls. We presently have 3 rambunctious cats and a guinea pig in our home. We just lost our beloved dog at 17 years of age. We all enjoy crafting and hiking in our spare time.

Drop in play dates and regular walks can be done during the day. I will dedicate myself to the loving care of your fur baby in your home or neighborhood.

About: Since I was a little girl, I’ve had a huge love for animals of all kinds. I grew up surrounded by many pets including dogs, cats, birds, and more! I was always the first to volunteer whenever someone needed their furry (or feathered!) friend cared for. I take pride in being safety-focused and highly responsible. I’m quick to notice if a pet isn’t feeling their best, and I know how to take action right away. I also have experience administering medications, so you can feel confident knowing your pet is in capable and caring hands. Most importantly, I treat every pet like family, giving them the same love and attention I would give my own. I am currently a college student, which gives me a flexible schedule. Pet care fits perfectly into my routine, especially on my days off from school. I enjoy spending that free time caring for pets, and I always make sure to plan my schedule around giving them the attention and care they need. I handle all pets with patience and care. I’m always mindful of their body language and behavior, because I believe pets deserve respect just like people do. Whether in my home or a client’s home, I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while following any routines or special instructions provided.

Christina has been a great walker for my puppy Bailey. Handling a high-energy independent Basenji like Bailey is not easy, and Christina was the best. She definitely gives the extra effort to make everything perfect. I'd recommend for sure!
