Her knowledge and wisdom as to how to care for them, for doggies is top notch! She is so smart in how to care for animals. Amber B. has always, always loved children and animals and she excels in caring for them and her genuine love for them. Amber B. always went above and beyond when a fostering her many dogs that have come through her home whatever they needed, whatever appointments they needed to be taken to, no matter how far she made sure that the fur babies that were in her care had their appointments taken care of, their health taken care of and she loves walking her dogs and the dogs that have come through her home.

19. Briana P.
About: I've been passionate about animals for as long as I can remember. Growing up in a home filled with all types of pets, I developed a deep love and understanding of their unique needs. My family and I provided both foster and forever homes for many animals, which gave me hands-on experience caring for a wide variety of breeds, personalities, and situations. This lifelong connection to pets has given me the skills and compassion to provide exceptional care, ensuring that your furry friend will feel safe, loved, and well-cared for. I currently work Monday through Friday, so I will have plenty of time to play with your fur babies during the evenings and on weekends! When caring for your pet in your home, I prioritize their comfort and routine to minimize any stress. I’ll follow your instructions closely, from feeding schedules and specific dietary needs to administering medication if required. I provide plenty of playtime, mental stimulation, and affection to ensure they feel safe and loved in your absence. I also maintain a clean and tidy environment, respecting your home as if it were my own. My goal is to create a calm, happy experience for your pet so you can have peace of mind while you're away

“If you know Allison Curren, then you know she loves pets. She has worked hard at her education, she was this years valedictorian. She is now attending a local christian college to become a veterinarian surgeon. Although she is at the beginning stages of this, she has already had several pet sitting and baby sitting opportunities and has done a wonderful job on all accounts. She is a dependable, a hard worker and you would not regret hiring her. So, just give her a call.”
