9. Monica L.


“Monica went above and beyond. We have a very senior cat who isn't a fan of strangers. She took her time with him and by the end he was purring on her lap giving her headbutts. She sends a bunch of pictures and her reports are really thorough. It felt like we were there with her. I would recommend her to anyone to watch their pets. Thank you so much Monica for everything and we will definitely be using your services again, if you don't mind the aggressive biscuit making 😂”

11. Katie M.
About: I’ve foster failed on a Lab/Dane female so very experienced with large breeds and also with a dog aggressive pittie with medical needs (Addison disease). Skilled with dogs needing special attention and more difficult breeds. Medication administration is something I’m very comfortable with. I have a very flexible work schedule and typically take a full hour lunch midday so plenty of time to check in on your pup or fit in a walk. Or I work from home so they are more than welcome to hang out with me during the day which includes a few walks or playing in the yard, plus plenty of pets and treats! Weekends are usually open to go on some fun adventures to keep your pets entertained while you’re out of town! I live next to a park so lots of space to explore! I also have a few dog beds around the house for the much needed nap as well as kennels (36” and 42”) and gates as needed. No pets live with me currently so the whole space is theirs to explore!


12. Morgan G.
“Morgan is a friend of mine through work. I went on vacation and knew she was the right person to watch my two dogs. She went on numerous walks with them and sent me so many pictures of them. She truly loved my dogs as if they were her own, and that’s all anyone can ask for while they are gone. I recommended her to all my other friends and family!”


13. Patricia M.

“Patricia did a great job with my nervous little dog, Allie, who warmed up to her pretty quickly. She was very understanding of/compassionate toward Allie. I will definitely be booking her services again soon!”


14. Nathaniel C.
About: Hello! My name is Nathaniel! I am a full time work from home employee at a university. I truly love every dog (but honestly the bigger the better) and I cared for my husky, Max, for all fifteen of his years. I am also a big fan of cats as well, especially if they have a big personality! I am a very responsible pet care provider and enjoy every moment I spend with furry four legged friends. Since I work from home, I’m able to provide at-home care for your pet and have no problem stepping away from my laptop to provide for whatever your pet needs. I have no problem getting my hands dirty to make sure your best friend doesn’t get messy, ruin anything, or eat something they shouldn’t be, I am very used to picking up after dogs and taking care of any of their needs! I don’t currently own any pets personally, but I am always my families go-to when someone needs their dog or cat looked after for a weekend or taking out for daily walks and/or feedings. I always make sure my clients pets needs are taken care of first! Though I will always make sure to be very accommodating to whatever extra services or measures need to be taken. I like to keep my personal spaces very clean so I am understanding and willing when it comes to maintain a healthy, clean pet in any home!

17. Christine W.

“Christine was amazing! She stopped by before the job began to meet Maisy and get the lay of the land, so to say. During the job she communicated frequently and sent pictures. I wouldn't hesitate to hire her for your fur baby!”

About: I have always grown up with dogs and you will receive tons of pictures throughout the day! I have a flexible job where I can work from home so your dog will always have someone to hang out with. Our house has a very large fenced in backyard where the critters can run around and chase all the rabbits out of our yard. Gary runs the house but he's a rock solid 16 pound bowling ball of a cat who can hold his own. Your pup will have full access to the entire house including all of the furniture and beds. Please let me know if you would like to set up a meet and greet to ensure that all our furry critters get along. My husband and I both work hybrid and someone will always be home with the dogs to hang out with them, let them out, etc. We have a fenced in yard that allows for the dogs to have fun outside. Dogs will have access to all furniture while inside. We can also crate them if needed.
