9. Daphne B.
“I had the pleasure of leaving my dog with Daphne, and I couldn't be happier with the care she provided. From the moment I met her, I could tell she was genuinely caring and compassionate towards animals. She took the time to understand my dog's needs and made me feel at ease leaving my furry friend in her capable hands. Throughout the day, Daphne went above and beyond by regularly sending me pictures and videos of my dog. It was heartwarming to see my dog happy and content in her care. Her updates helped me stay connected and reassured that my dog was in good hands. I highly recommend Daphne to anyone in need of a dog sitter. Her caring nature, attention to detail, and excellent communication skills truly set her apart. I will definitely be reaching out to her again in the future whenever I need someone trustworthy and reliable to look after my furry companion. Thank you, Daphne, for providing such exceptional care!”

18. casey h.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 6 and I’m great with all sizes, breeds and ages as I’ve helped multiple dogs give birth and I’ve also taken care of geriatric dogs. I have volunteered at Our Farm Sanctuary and I foster for The Rescue Haven My life has always been surrounded by dogs, I love my animals more than anything. The first thing I do when I wake up is take care of the dogs, take them on a walk and then give them their breakfast and enrichment bowls/mats I have fenced in yard and three fixed golden retrievers that are sweethearts. If a crate is needed, I can provide, but I am also open to letting the dogs mingle if you’re okay with that
19. Katherine L.
“Katherine and her husband are amazing and I alway feel at peace when she’s caring for my 14-year old pup who wears a diaper and needs his bladder expressed. He loves visiting her and going out on her back porch to catch the sun!”
20. Graham C.
“Dear Rover, Graham has a sincere compassion and patience with animals. I’ve witnessed him care for his active Chocolate Lab for many, many years til the last day. Taking walks daily, dog park visits frequently and trips to the lake where his dog loved to swim and dive. He even convinced a neighbor to open their pool for a “Doggie Paddle” so some orderly pets could enjoy the water during those hot days. When a vacation, job travel or emergency arises, he is on speed dial for friends and family as a known go to for Pet-Sitting, Walking, Feeding and Companionship. While away in school he adopted his current companion Curie, the cat. He has nursed her through troubling times and continues to be a Best Friend and Loving Companion. He truly is an animal lover and most importantly a spiritual lover. He’d be an awesome choice for any parent searching for a responsible friend for their furry fam. Consistent, Reliable, Dependable, Caring, Trustworthy and Patient. The key is under the mat for Graham or even on his keychain. Regina G”
