2. Emily B.
“Emily truly cares for these animals like they are her own. When we left for a week we were worried or babies would be lonly and confused. But everyday we got updates from Emily without even asking, and lots of adorable picture of their adventures. When we got home it was like we never left them, I swear they didn't even know we were gone. And she left our home in better shape then when we left. I would recommendemily to anyone who is in search of a good pet sitter, and we will definitely be using her again!!!”

About: I have had dogs my whole life, helped take care of them. I have watched dogs for many years for family and friends. I have assisted with training family dogs. I curreny work full time but I can have fexible working hours to attend to the pets when needed. I am usually home at nights to be with the animals. I can crate the dog if needed during the day/night time. I don’t have a fenced in yard but love to go on walks and do have access to parks if the dog is trained and can throw the ball.

10. Michelle Z.
About: I've always been a huge dog lover, tried to take in every stray as a kid, I grew up around dogs like basset hounds, Labradors, poodles and beagles. I've dog sat for boxers who think they're lap dogs, I've sat for younger pups, middle aged dogs, senior dogs, small dogs and big dogs! I go on frequent walks, play tug a war, play fetch, snuggles and affection. Give dogs medication if they need it, whatever makes the dogs happy! I'm very fond of cats as well I love all the different cat personalities and just being able to have some calm moments and snuggle with them. I'm a wife, mom and accountant by day but Thursday-Sunday I have more flexibility to soak up extra pet snuggles. Watching other people's precious pups/cats allows me more animal loving time. I treat all pets just like I would my own pup or kitty cat lots of snuggles, a few treats, safe walks making sure harnesses or leashes are properly worn and make sure they are always in a safe environment.
11. Mariah D.
“Just what Monte needed!! Thanks Mariah! ?”
12. Bethany J.
“Bethany had been caring for our 4 legged family members for 2 years now. We have 3 dogs, all with special needs. One dog is elderly with seizures, one dog is a hunting dog & needs running time and the last dog is a puppy (need I say more). Bethany’s care and compassion for our pets is above & beyond. When we return home from a long day at work or a weekend away, it is evident that our dogs have been well cared for. We HIGHLY recommend Bethany!”
13. Kimberly G.
“Thanks Kimberly for doing such a great job!! Chase is always so happy to see you. I highly recommend Kimberly as we have had her watch our pup many times and she is very kind and responsible”
14. Ashtyn H.
“Ashtyn showed so much attention to our pet and provided many little details to ensure we were comfortable while being away from our fur baby! She made sure to keep us updated and even took the time to play with our dog. Definitely recommend Ashtyn to anyone who’s seeking a professional, loving caretaker.”
15. Rebecca R.
“Rebecca did a phenomenal job with our dog and was very good at communicating during the entire process. Thank you again!”
16. Dalani S.
“Dalani is one of my best friends from work I when a a 2 week vacation last year and I had her watch my 10 week old husky named Ace. She did a great job! She really helped us stay on told of potty training and even did our exact routine so he wouldn’t get off schedule. I think that was the best cause when we got home he was pretty much potty training and it was really awesome that we didn’t have to restart the whole process over again!”
17. Jennie R.
“One of the most wonderful things about Jennie is how much she loves dogs. I've seen her first hand with my dogs, and with her own. She treats them as family and treats them with respect and love and... treats! I would absolutely trust Jennie with my dogs, whether for a quick walk, check in or dogsitting for one day or staying at her house while my family is on vacation.”
18. April S.
“April is a dedicated, loving, responsible pet owner. She loves all animals and has an excellent temperament that animals can sense, and they are drawn to her. Our two cats just love when she comes over, and they just bask in her attention and loving. We have no issues leaving our babies because she loves them as her own. We also have a cat "George" who has some neurological issues and she gives him massages and extra cuddling. The boys just love their time with her, and we love having her take care of them.”
19. Austin C.
“To know my brother Austin is to know animals (and kids) love him and he is amazing with them. My most recent example is from two weeks ago when he came to visit. I adopted my dog during the height of COVID and due to social distancing we had limited interaction with other people and nobody ever came over. My dog became territorial aggressive in our home. I knew the one person that could help me work with him was Austin. I watched as my dog went from aggressive to asking for belly rubs! Seriously! I watched my dog realize that not only was Austin not a threat but is lots of fun. They become the best of friends and it made my heart happy to see them build that relationship. Soon it was all about playing with toys, going on walks and all the pets my dog could want. I understand that this position isn’t about training but I wanted to try and showcase how much love Austin has for every animal I’ve ever seen him around. I would highly recommend Austin to anyone who is looking for a dog sitter and wants to have a kind, responsible, fun and knowledgeable person to care for their fur baby. Wether it’s during work hours or while they're away on vacation not having to worry about their pets as they would be in safe and very capable hands is priceless. If you have any further questions you may contact me at 832-477-6658 Sheri Sankey”
20. Odessa T.
About: I’ve been taking care of dogs from a little age since I was about 9 I’d say. Dogs have been a huge part of my life with having 3 dogs now and having 2 previous dogs I have quite a bit of experience in any and all situations. I would love your pups just as much as my own🫶🏻 I am going to be working part time as a stylist and so I have a couple of free days I’d like to enjoy outside or with pets in general! We have lots of free land for pups to run around. If we are at the home owners house if they have a fence that will be a good safety feature for when I’m watching them. Otherwise I’ll always make sure to have them on a leash and spend time outside with them like playing fetch and what not
