13. Jesse L.
“I have known Jesse for 8 years at this point. When we met, the first thing I learned about her was her incomparable love for pets, especially her dog Tucker. Shortly after meeting Jesse, I rescued a dog with severe separation anxiety and was extremely uneasy around others. Jesse was an exception to that. He could sense her loving personality and was one of the few people who he felt comfortable with. As a dog parent, that made me extremely happy. She has an amazing spirit that animals can sense and is extremely dependable. Your pets will be so happy you chose her!”


14. Meghan M.

15. Marilyn H.
“Our two boys (a german shepherd and a golden retriever) absolutely love Marilyn. We were away for ten worry-free days knowing that they were in good hands being well loved and well taken care of. Even now, when we walk the boys pass Marilyn's house, they'd often pull us close and sniff if she's home. Marilyn is the best. Our doggos say so.”




16. Raj N.


“Raj is great! Communicates well, accommodates our preferences, and is always willing to go the extra mile. My dog Marley always looks forward to her walks with Raj!”
