About: I've been taking care of pets since I was 5, and I've always made sure they felt safe and loved around me. All animals get kisses and pets around me. I am currently in-between jobs so I will have large availability in comparison to others, and I can give the amount of attention your fur baby needs. I have a large fenced in yard for dogs to run around in, and a two story house so if your baby needs an entire bedroom or floor to themselves I have the space. I also have 3 cats who like to make new friends.
“Gloria has now watched our baby twice, and we will be using her again in the future. Our pup is our first baby and so I’m glad we found someone we could trust to watch him while we are away. Gloria provides updates throughout the day which gives me peace of mind knowing Philly is well taken care of. We have had her stay in our home both times to keep him in his environment to lessen the anxiety of us being away and she’s treated our home like it’s her own and leaves it just how it was when she arrived! I highly recommend booking her if you are looking for someone who will treat your animals like her own.”

“Crystal clear Crystal loves what she does ! I feel like the boys hit the jackpot with Crystal and son ! She arrived with a smile and the boys immediately welcomed them both with hops and kisses! It was so nice to get real time photos which all demonstrated how much fun everyone was having ! She was tickled pink abt the boys being tv fanatics they bark at any cute competition on 📺😃 Feels good to have someone nice & punctual to care for D&K they usually meet me at the door when I pull up but no where to be found I had to ring doorbell to get their attention ! Definitely will have her sit again ! You should too! Vanietta, Dakota and Kooper 💕🐕🐶”

“Ionna is a lovely person and cares deeply for pets and their people. She is flexible and easy to work with. I could tell when I picked up my boy after his stay with her that he had settled in and had been doing fine. I had originally booked her for housesitting but we decided that it would work better for both of us to have her do boarding. She is good with dogs and treated mine like one of her own.”

“Jo-Anne is THE BEST! She was very communicative and took time to send thoughtful updates which I really appreciated.

About: I have been a care taker of both pets & disabled adults for over 3 years. I have experience caring for large dog breeds and giving oral medication. I love animals of all shapes & sizes! I also have experience caretaking adults with disabilities. Which included cooking, helping them bathe and scheduling/taking them to their appointments.

I can do drop in visits to give pets food/water and for potty breaks. I can walk/jog with pups to give high energy dogs exercise. Since I work from home, I can give a lot of time and attention for longer stays.
