16. Meadow J.
“Visited our cat on short notice when we had to leave him alone at home. Very easy to work with, highly recommend! :)”
17. Madison B.
“I first met Madi at our vet's office where she works. We have a pretty ornery cat and the vet asked her to help with him because she knew she would be able to handle him. Not only is she knowledgeable about pets, but she has a warm and kind personality which makes her easy to relate to. When I found out she did pet care in homes, we hired her to take care of our cat by coming by twice a day to feed him his meds, scoop his litter, etc. and she did a great job. She showed up every day in a timely manner, did what we asked her to do, and kept in good communication with us as needed. I even got a couple of pictures! I would highly recommend Madi to anyone that has pet care needs in their home.”
18. Kierstyn S.
About: Hi! My name is Kierstyn. I'm an experienced vet tech with knowledge of how to handle healthy pets, medically complex pets that require medications, and emergencies if they were to happen. From my work experience I know that some pets do much better in their own home rather than in a boarding facility or having to be watched at someone else's home and I would love to be able to allow the pet for feel more safe and comfortable by allowing them to stay in their own home. I currently work full time. If you prefer for me to stay in your home then I'll let your pet out/walk/ check on them and feed them in the mornings and in the evenings. I am typically able to check on them during the middle of the day and let them out/ walk them then too however sometimes work does not allow this. If I do drop ins I will do them early in the morning, before 7:30, if possible then I will check on them between 11:30am and 1:30pm, between 5:30 and 7:30 pm, and between 8:30-10pm if requested. All care would be provided at your home. This is because I feel like most pets are most comfortable in their own space. I will ask for detailed instructions on how you'd like your pet to be let out/ walked and specific feeding/ medicating instructions. I will be happy to stay in your home or just do drop ins throughout the day, whichever you prefer.
19. Amelia W.
“Amelia is awesome with all our animals! We have a small farm and can go on vacation with peace of mind knowing that she is caring for our furry family members. Not only does she stay with our dogs but also has the knowledge to handle our farm animal needs. Best of all, the animals don’t care about us leaving because they love Amelia!”
