14. Beiqi F.
About: I have been around dogs and cats since I was a kid and I learned a lot on my own how to take care pets and understand their language. I love being around with animals, it’s the biggest comfort for me 🩷 I am a grad student at RISD. Mondays and Thursdays I get off class usually at 6, sometimes can be early. Tuesdays and Fridays I am available after 12pm. Wednesdays after 4:30pm. Flexible on weekends. I live in an apartment, we have a backyard and it’s fenced. The rooms are in decent size, we can keep the pets in the living room if necessary, however I am mainly doing dog walking and visits for now.
15. Lydia W.
“Lydia is great! She’s super flexible and easy to schedule. She’s great with our puppy and is a lifesaver since I work out of the house all day. I definitely recommend her!”
16. Gee T.
“Gee is a wonderful guy and I immediately felt at ease entrusting him with my toy poodle Sunny. I am on maternity leave with my first baby and needed more help walking Sunny than I anticipated. Gee came to my rescue and has been providing Sunny all the extra walks and love he needs right now. Sunny is very excited when Gee arrives - always a great sign!”
17. Olivia R.
“Olivia is an experienced pet owner, as well as an amazing pet caregiver. Olivia took care of my family dog while we went out of town. She cares for others' pets just as well as she does her own. My dog, though a great and well-behaved dog, can be reactive on a leash, requires multiple walks a day, and needs to follow a specific schedule when it comes to walks and meals. Olivia was able to give him all these things for every day that we were out of town. I would absolutely hire Olivia to watch my dog again and would recommend Olivia to anyone in need!”
18. Mae H.
“First meet & greet with my pups . Mae was very thorough with questions and gathering background info on my dogs . She took the time to ensure she covered all her bases. Which I appreciate since they are my babies ! Ellie was very timid and hiding behind me but Mae was able to coax her with treats and get her leashed . She also did well with Gizmo high energy jumping . He uses a gentle lead around his muzzle and she was able to put it on no problem. They went for a walk and it went smoothly .She took pictures as well . Will book again !”

20. Lajuan A.
“Lajuan has been a great resource when looking for a pet sitter! He is reliable and cares about my dogs as if there were his own. He is easy to communicate with, sends me updates on how they are doing, and is willing to answer any questions I may have. Will definitely use him again in the future!”
