Gabby is extremely reliable, friendly, trustworthy and she truly loves dogs, and animals in general. My dog always comes back happy and well-exercised after their walks. I can message her last minute and she always responds. She has watched my Sadie even while I’ve been on vacations. I trust her with my dog and my home!! If you’re looking for someone to take care of your furry friend who will genuinely love your pet, Gabby is the perfect choice!”

18. Hannah M.
About: I professionally pet sat for a pet sitting company that required me to take courses/get certified in pet CPR, walking, emergency situations, administering medication etc Additionally, I volunteer for Hotel for Homeless Dogs. Both experiences have exposed me to walking puppies and large dogs. I currently full time 3pm-11:30pm Monday-Friday, so I am available anytime on the weekends and 10am-1:30pm on weekdays (it takes ~30 min to commute to work). I will be away September 6th through the 17th and start a new job September 20th where my hours are 8am-4pm Monday-Friday. My landlord does not allow pets, so I am unable to board pets or pet sit within my house. I will only be able to walk or pet sit at the client’s house.


19. Valerie T.


“Valery is great. She is so great with my cat and goes above and beyond. She’s caring and you can really tell how. UCB she loves animals. I’m happy to have found her!”




20. Rich A.


“It is so, so great to have a sitter that is not afraid of my zoo! As the owner of two cats, ten geckos, and ten snakes, all with different personalities ranging from shy to outright grumpy, I am very comforted by Rich's confidence in caring for them. I am a total momma bear when it comes to ALL of my critters (even the bitey ones), and I don't even worry while I'm away on vacation.”
