Jessie is wonderful. I was nervous finding someone to visit my new home and take care of my pup. Jessie made me feel safe and comfortable. She is prompt in her communication and went the extra mile during her time with Alan. I look forward to continuing to work with her.

About: I have two dogs of my own and experience caring for dogs of all breeds and sizes. Including but not limited to: walking, feeding, bathing, boarding, and more. I work part time currently but my schedule is pretty flexible. I’m off every other weekend and have plenty of time Monday-Friday for your pups! I have a large fenced in yard but do enjoy walking on nearby trails or paths and sometimes going to the nearby dog park. I have housemates who will be around to give your pets extra love and attention as well.

About: I am experienced in volunteer work with dogs of all different breeds at Hotel for Homeless dogs in RI. Additionally, I am cautious in safety and attentive to your dog(s). My full time job is remote, so stepping away to take care of your fur babies is flexible for me. I am local in the area to be of your service. I give lots of pets and cuddles. I do fun activities that get their energy out and I reward with my own treats or yours!

Lisa is a very kind, gentle person who we hired to walk our dog, Rico, 5x (30 min ea walk) during our honeymoon. When we got the first couple of doggie report cards, Lisa had only walked rico 0.5ish miles. I was disappointed because I had hoped a 30 min walk would be closer to 1.5 miles. I spoke with Lisa about this and his next walks were 1 mile. It may be my own fault for not specifying that I wanted the emphasis of her 30min time blocks to be actually walking, vs playing with toys or brushing him, which are perfectly nice things to do but not for such a high energy dog like ours. Overall, our dog is alive and happy. Lisa fed our cat for free and helped coordinate visits/feedings with my family, who was also helping care for the pets. Some of the report cards showed that Lisa had spent 45 mins with Rico while only being payed for the 30, which I thought was very generous.

About: I have been dog sitting for friends and family for 4 years now with up to 3 dogs at a time. I have also spent summers cat sitting long term for a family with 4 cats. I am a student athlete at Roger Williams University. My afternoons are scheduled to be free so I’m available most afternoons and now weekends during the off season. I like to best care for the fur babies by giving them the most at home experience. Whatever is routine for the animals and comfortable from the owners, is the best way I like to care for them. Lots of petting and playing is also given in excess when I care for fur babies.

TRUST AMBER!! SHE IS THE BEST! Amber was my go-to walker for my pup. She was incredibly respectful of what I was doing for training and routine. My dog absolutely loved going on walks with her. Week after week, Amber gave me and my pupper peace of mind knowing she’d be okay while I was at work. My hectic schedule often made booking days/times for walks difficult but Amber was always flexible and ready to help us! LOOK NO FURTHER! SHE IS WHO YOU WANT TAKING YOUR PUP!

Maddy is the most caring and dedicated caregiver I’ve ever met. She has a never ending love for animals, especially dogs. I never worry when I leave my dogs in her care. She goes above and beyond, walking them, playing with them, and getting them treats. She cares so much about she does it is so amazing to have someone so reliable to leave my pups with!!

About: I have an 11 year old shih tzu and a 13 year old Persian cat. I worked as a dog handler at a doggy daycare for six months caring for dogs off leash and also overnight. I am able to administer medications or any other request your pet may require. I currently walk dogs and petsit when I am needed. I am looking to get more clients for petsitting because I enjoy being around animals! It is always a bit stressful for pets when owners leave them. I will be there to comfort your animals best that I can. I will make sure to give them plenty of love, attention, and play that they need while you are away.

Our dogs loved Leila's dog walks. We were away most of the day all weekend and came home to tired well exercised dogs! I was very impress with how long of a walk she was able to do in 30 minutes with two dogs.
