9. Tyler S.
“Tyler is AMAZING!! He watched my 3 dogs and 4 cats (plus a stray cat) while we were in Colorado for 10 days. He extremely responsible and trustworthy, and is a true animal lover! To my pleasant surprise, my extremely skiddish dog (who hates men) fell in love with Tyler! They say that dogs can sense the good or bad in a person - so that is a testimony in itself! We are very happy with Tyler and will most definitely hire him again for our pet sitting needs. He gets a 10/10 rating from us. You can't go wrong with Tyler!”
10. Brad L.
“I am late to posting this but Brad is fantastic! He is a very friendly, playful, and personable person and the dogs know that and love him. He was great with our dogs and did not mind at all how excitable and jumpy our younger dog is when new people arrive to our house. He did more than just walk our dogs in their normal routine for them to do their business and get some fresh air but he also played with them, which we really appreciate. I highly recommend Brad to anyone looking for dogwalking and/or any help with their dogs. He is great and super trustworthy!”

“Great personality!!!…Theresa is professional, accommodating and a lover of animals which is so apparent when she’s with them. So glad we found her!”
12. Chris D.
“Chris provided excellent care for my dog. He was very professional and made sure to give me picture updates. My dog is a rescue and is often nervous around new people. He was patient and took time to get to know my dog before his stay, which was reassuring.”
13. Angela M.
“I highly recommend Angela to all my family and friends. She is trustworthy, reliable and her love of all animals shows in every interaction. She is simply the best!”
14. Trinity G.
About: I grew up on a farm, caring for the animals everyday. I've had a pretty wide range of experience, from bunnies, ferrets, cows, chickens, to cats, dogs, snakes, fish, etc. Always making sure they all had their needs met and ofcourse couldn't leave without giving my affection too. I had a seasonal job that recently ended and I also just moved. So while trying to figure out my next steps, in the meantime I figured pet caring would be the perfect plan. I know what to do and I'd be available whenever by putting this job as a priority. Caring for your pet in your home, I will have access to all that you usually do with them and I can make sure I do the same process. That way, they get no more anxiousness from the change without you home, and they're getting the same care that you as their parent would do.
15. Lillian L.
About: I have three rescue dogs, including my senior dog, and puppy, all of whom I would not know what to do without. I’ve been so lucky to have experience as a nanny/babysitter, which most of the time leaves me with the chance to care for the family pets as well. I love all dogs like my own, and hope to be able to take care of yours! I’m available whenever you need me before I leave for college in late August. I’m happy to be there for your dogs whether it’s early in the morning, or late at night! I walk your dogs very frequently, whether that’s in my yard, or on the many walking trails not far from my home. I value all of your pets needs!
16. Alexis G.
“Look no further! If you’re reluctant to leave your pets in someone else’s care, this is the sitter for you, hands down! Alexis has been a Godsend for our canines! She has pet/house sit our 2, along with 3 of our grand dogs, in 2 different locations! She is so loving and caring for each of the dogs and extremely flexible! She watched our 5 dogs in two locations as well as delivering one for a photo shoot 15 miles one way for my daughters wedding! So for our sons wedding, a few months later, we could rest easy, leaving the state and our beloved canines to Alexis’ capable, compassionate and caring hands!”
17. Catherine R.
“Catherine has watched my two Australian Shepard’s numerous times over the last several years while I’m away on vacation or out of town for work. She’s very friendly, dependable and responsible. I never have any hesitation about leaving them because she takes such great care of them. I even get daily updates and pictures!”
18. Brendan E.
About: I've been trusted by many family and friends for the past ten years to care for their dogs of all ages, sizes, and zoomies levels. I'm currently working part-time and have the ability to shift my schedule around as needed. I'm very organized, so I can assure you that I will be on time and available to meet my obligations to you. In your home, I can cater to your desired care approach for your pets, so long as it remains loving and nurturing. This includes but is not limited to: playing with your animal, allowing your animal to sleep in the bed, assisting aged animals up and down stairs, etc.
19. Stacey G.
About: I grew up with always having dogs around and have had a lifelong passion and love for all animals. I’ve been dog sitting for over 10 years now and can provide the best love and care for your animals. I have helped out at a dog training center. I enjoy hiking several times a week and would love to have an animal to accompany me. It has always calmed me down to be around animals because they bring such happiness and great company rather than being alone. It has always been a dream to either work with and have several animals throughout my life. I feel like dogs can bring so much joy to a person and or family. I can relate to how special a pet can be, my dog Fluke is my whole world and my goal is to give him the best life possible. With that being said, I will do everything in my power to provide the best experience for you and your fur babies. ♥️ I’m currently working part-time and going to school for my Master’s online, so I have plenty of open time to care and play with your pups! I have the friendliest golden retriever pup who absolutely adores anyone he meets if your pup needs a friend. I follow all safety guidelines to make sure your fur baby and home are protected.
20. Trinity K.
“To Whom it may concern, Trinity K is of the highest quality of persons I can think of. Not only is she kind and caring but she is honest and compassionate. For the 3 years that I have known her I have come to think of her as a snow white of sorts. Animals love her energy and are truly better off after meeting her. Wild animals will go out of their way to cross paths with her. But dogs and cats absolutely adore her, she's the type to be found at a party petting the hosts pet the entire night. The type to remember an animals name over a humans. She is exactly who I go to to care for my pets. Regards Devon B”
