“Melissa And Nick we’re awesome with my crew”


2. Elizabeth M.
“Elizabeth has been watching my two dogs and hamster on and off for the past 18 months. She is truly great, I think my pets love her more than they love me! Whenever business called me out of town I know I could count on her to watch my babies while I was away. I left her a house key and she would come three times a day to spend time with me pets. Elizabeth is a very sweet but enthusiastic young woman. I was nervous about leaving Brady, my boxer with her because he is STRONG and loves to play but Elizabeth is a lot tougher (and stronger) than she looks. I'm 15 years older and half a foot taller than she is and I sometimes have trouble getting Brady around. I would definitely recommend her to anyone, she's the best.”

“Jolinda is great very attentive to my dogs needs and any concerns for him. She always sends detailed updates and pictures. She’s trustworthy and I’ve used her several times. Myro also is happy with her and gets excited when he sees her.”




7. Elle S.
“I don’t even know where to start. Elle is one of the most responsible people I have ever known. She is one of the only few people I would leave my child with and pets other than my parents. She is always organized and on time . Loves animals as if they where tiny humans. I’ve never known someone more trustworthy, honest, and compassionate. If you’re look for someone that you don’t have to worry about your loved one while at work or on a date night she’s the person I would call. I say this cause she’s like one of the only people I don’t have to call to check on my loved ones I know 100 percent they are safe and well taken care of .”

“Melissa watches my 3 year old Australian shepherd, and my 15 year old Rottweiler with amazing care! She's gentle with them, and loves them like her own. I've left her in charge of them for over a week, and it was phenomenal. She's going to be a great addition to your staff. She also bathes them and is always thorough.”


10. Richard G.

“I have 2 st Bernard’s and the male is very strong. I have had multiple dog walkers tell me they weren’t able to continue walking George because of how strong he is. Yet, Richard did great walking George and he didn’t have any issues with George’s strength. I fully trust him walking George and will keep him on the regular.”


11. Megan S.

14. Savian V.
About: Dogs have taught me to be patient. In doing so I have learned to be consistent and a strong a leader for them to follow. I have plenty of time to share with your dog most days I'm available including weekends. I will be available during most people's work hours. I can come to your location to watch your dog or I can drop by to walk your dog when needed. I will provide your dog with adequate physical and mental activity to keep them level headed.




15. Morgan E.

“Morgan was fantastic. I was visiting for a medical appointment and needed someone to walk and watch my dog (a nine month old puppy) who is usually my shadow. Moppie took to her and was perfectly relaxed with Morgan. She showed up early, sent me pictures, and was very caring. I would recommend her without hesitation.”


16. Brandi C.
About: Having 2 spoiled boys of my own, I’m excited to share the love with your pups! I have experience taking care of all types of pets. If you have any specific needs, let me know! I’m available for walks, drop ins, or in home sitting for your babies! I recently moved to the area and am loving getting to know all of the great walking trails! My dogs are RUNNERS! Even though they have everything they could ever want an need.. With this said, I keep a close eye on my pups and would do the same with yours!


17. Trenity B.
About: I have taken care of both dogs and cats since I was a child. They have became a huge part of my life and many people have relied on me to sit and watch their babies. I also have experience with giving older animals their meds. I am currently working from home, so I am able to be with the babies throughout the day. I am available for boarding Monday through Sunday. I live in an apartment, but we have a dog park so the pups can go running around in a fence area. We also can go for walks around my complex.


18. David H.
“I have known David for 20 years. He worked at my company for about 6 of those years. He is punctual and a man of his word. I've come to regard him as a friend who I would trust with the keys to my house or automobile. When it comes to pets I know David is a great care giver. He treats his own pets as members of the family and goes out of his way to help others with their fur babies.”


19. Elizabeth B.


“Elizabeth truly cares about animals and makes sure our dogs gets loads of attention every time she comes. She goes ABOVE AND BEYOND and is amazing.”
