“Sara is the best. She made sure Etta was cared for and loved while we were gone. She’s highly recommended. It’s wonderful to know we found someone that takes our mind off of leaving not just a pet but a family member and she is taking care of properly until we returned.”

About: I've taken care of animals for years, people even bring me their animals to take in when they can't have them anymore, I've been labeled as a humane society by landlords and others. I have also fostered animals, many of times till they found a right home. I believe animals are to be trusted more than humans. I'm free most of the time to watch your babies, I'm pretty flexible on times and schedules, I work from home but Ill always have time for your babies I am able to come to your house and watch your lovely babies, I had plenty of my own that I have trained and loved.

5. Rachel T.
“My girl absolutely adores Rachel! Rachel treats her so well and has become my dogs favorite person! I've basically been kicked to the curb!! 😂❤️”
6. Nina J.
“I’ve known Nina for well over a decade and seen her with several dogs she has owned and cared for. I have entrusted my cats to her many times while I have been away and she has always been wonderful with them - they are very shy and skittish and she was patient and kind with them and was even able to coax them out to play! She is experienced, caring, and responsible with pets and especially loves dogs — and dogs love Nina! I have no hesitation recommending Nina to care for your pets — they will be lucky to spend time with her!”

About: I have previously worked in a kennel, I dog sit for friends and family, and I have a very energetic Irish Setter who loves to be active. I work from home. I am around all day and night to cater to your pet's needs! I will be around to let your pet out any time of day. I usually let my pup out about three times a day and the walks span from 0.5 miles to 2 miles. I am typically the groomer for my dogs, so I am responsible for brushing, bathing, drying, and clipping my pups nails.
14. Michelle W.
About: Experienced Dog mom. Dog is God spelled backwards. Which is probably why I love dogs more than I do people. It’s been this way since I was a kid. A dog love and bond is just different. I have a 3 year old daughter who love Dogs as much as I do. She wants to pet every dog she sees. Dogs must be friendly with children, or I cannot be of service. Self employed so I’m home most of time. Free to be a companion to a lovable fur friend. While pet parents work or go on vacation I have a back porch deck with yard space. I am also close to a park where we can go play and let out some energy

17. Alysa D.
“Aly has been an excellent caregiver for my 2 cats for the past 7 years. She understands their quirks, administers pills to one with a chronic illness, and most importantly, they love her! She gives them the attention they need, plays and cuddles with them, and always takes care of feeding and watering them. If she says she'll be there, she will be there. She's utterly trustworthy around my home and with my pets.”
18. Allison C.
“Allison has a natural love and affection for all animals, and this is evident in the way she treats them with kindness and respect. She has extensive experience caring for pets, including dogs, cats, rabbits, frogs, fish, and other small animals, and she is highly skilled at providing them with the proper care and attention they need. She is responsible, reliable, and committed to providing the best possible care for all of her pets, ensuring that they are well-fed, exercised, and comfortable at all times. She is highly organized and detail-oriented, which means that she can easily manage a pet's schedule and ensure they receive all necessary medications, vaccinations, and vet visits. She has a calming presence that puts pets at ease, which is especially important for those who may be nervous or anxious in new situations. She is patient and understanding, which is essential when dealing with pets that have behavioral issues or require special attention. She is committed to continuing education and staying up-to-date on the latest developments in pet care, which means she is always looking for new ways to improve the lives of your furry friends. She is a good communicator, which means she can easily communicate with pet owners and provide updates on their pets' health and well-being. She has a positive attitude and a can-do spirit, which means that she is always willing to go the extra mile to ensure that pets are happy and healthy. Overall, her love, dedication, and expertise make her an excellent choice for anyone looking for a responsible, caring, and trustworthy pet caregiver.”
19. Payton M.
“Payton is a true animal lover! We have 3 dogs that she cares for when we need her and they all just love her! They even know her car when she comes and they get so excited. We would never go away as we didn't want to leave our furbabies, now we can and we know they will be in great hands with Payton!”
