18. Hallie W.
About: Why hello there! The Hallie guarantee is as follows: I will give your pet the care, love, and fun that I would give my own. I recognize the stress that comes with trusting a stranger with your pets, and I am committed to providing comfort for both you and your pet. I’ve been taking care of animals since I can remember and have experience with numerous breeds and energy levels. I work from home Mon-Thurs until 3pm but can be available for a lunchtime walk. I’m available all day Fri-Sun. I’m familiar with the requirements of constant attention to pets. I’m on call 24/7 for my 2 year old German shepherd, Mellie. She’s a lovely, amazing high energy working dog with a hefty owner’s manual. I’m used to my schedule accommodating the highs and lows of pet care. I get how dogs can feel about a stranger in their home, and same for their owners. I’ll follow whatever house rules you’ve got, and respect your dog’s personal space. I’m working to fully understand dog body language & stress indicators, and how to adapt my own behavior appropriately. I don’t offer boarding services at my home - my dog isn’t dog-friendly. I don’t offer overnight housesitting either - I prefer not to leave my dog overnight unless I can find a sitter for her.
19. Lily B.
“I have a chihuahua who is a rescue named Evie. She came from a hoarding situation and as a result, was not well socialized with humans when I got her. She did not walk on a leash, was not potty trained and did not know how to play with toys. Lily was there every step of the way, helping me with teaching Evie how to be a dog. She encouraged Evie to walk on a leash, learn how to go up and down stairs and trust humans. Lily is patient, reliable and understanding of dogs and their various personality quirks/habits. She is well-equipped to care for dogs with special needs and is an animal lover who takes her job very seriously. She is the only person I trust to take care of Evie when I’m away!”
20. Niki S.
“Niki took great care of our two cats and sent me cute descriptions of what they got up to during her visits. The cats took to her fairly quickly, even the shy one. Highly recommend!”
