âBrandon has been wonderful with my dog. She gets very excited when she sees him. Great communication. He is always on time. Very responsive and very professional. 100% recommended!â

About: I love animals. I have owned a horse, birds and fish. Although I never owned a dog or cat, Friends and family have always asked me to pet sit and I have always been more than happy to ablige. As a former letter Carrier, my favorite customers were four-legged. I am retired and want to stay active. Who can keep you more fit and active than a dog that is waiting for a walk-date? When I have dog sat, I usually go for multiple walks. I can walk all day. The dogs love it and it makes them tired. Animals need mental stimulation outside of their house or yard just like people. I try to find things to keep us both busy and happy.
âMariah accepted my request last minute and was a huge help. She went above and beyond when walking my pup on an abnormally hot day to make sure he didn't overheat. Great communication. Will request her help again.â

About: Hello fur parents! I have been a fur mama for more than a decade and have watched many dogs and cats since I could remember. I'm a current proud owner of an American Bully, the most sweetest and gentle giant of a dog she is. She loves all dogs and cats and is very good around them. I give constant attention to any dogs or cats under my care. To the point where they will get spoiled with love. When they are in my care I treat them as if they are my own babies. I work overnight shifts during the week, which means my days are free to spend quality time with your fur babies. Iâm very hands-on and love staying active with pets. Plus, my significant other works from home, so thereâs always someone present to give your pets the care and attention they deserve. I have a good size fenced backyard for the dogs to roam around and play. I do have a dog play pen to separate dogs if needed. I'm great with first aid, medication and care for your loved one. My dog is not crated and she likes to roam around and usually just lays in her bed or on the couch. Your fur babies are more than welcome to sleep on the dog beds that we have and on our comfy couch too! I like to wipe my dogs paws after every walk or play outside and I would do the same to your dog. Please let me know if your dog doesn't like their paws to be touched. If I do have to leave the house for like an errand I always have a camera to keep watch on. I love to send pictures and video updates of your fur babies and make sure they are well taken care of.
