“We were thrilled with Alex and the dogs love him too. Alex is professional, friendly, caring for the dogs and trustworthy! He met with us before he started the assignment to learn about us and the dogs and any of our special requests. He showed up every day, always on time and did more than what was required. We have already referred him to others and will definitely use him again!”

11. Teona Z.
About: I grew up occasionally dog sitting for family/friends, but more recently have grown to love and care for my husband’s family dog (collie) who just recently passed away. I love going for walks with a dog by my side, playing fetch if possible and giving lots of belly rubs. I have a very flexible schedule and enjoy being active. I would love to get out more and take dogs on walks for some fun exercise! I am willing to dog sit in the client’s home and will be respectful and courteous while taking care of their pup in their home.

18. Amanda Z.
About: Not only have I grown up with pets my whole life, I have made a living out of taking care of them. It was my calling as a young child to become a Veterinarian. I started Pet Well Mobile Vet, the area's only mobile veterinary service, in 2021 to help bring a better level of quality to pet care after seeing how much more relaxed my friend's pets were when I took care of them in their homes. Building that bond through pet sitting is much the same thing, pets get individualized care and you get peace of mind. As the mobile veterinarian, I can schedule my days as needed. I have the flexibility to do mid-day meals or walk, if needed. I'm almost always done working by 6pm to make sure everyone gets dinner on time and then some evening playtime. All pets will be cared for as if they are my own. I encourage pet parents to write up the normal routine for their baby so I can stick to it as much as possible. I love to send pictures and updates. (I would want them if the roles were reversed.) I also have to ability to care for medical issues that arise during the stay, only with the pet parent's permission of course.
