“Will absolutely be reaching out to Michelle for all my pet care in the future. Michelle made being away from my diabetic dog so much easier. She provided picture updates during every drop by and was able to give my dog his insulin injections. Highly recommend Michelle if you need someone who will take care of your pets like they are her own!!”

About: I have been an animal lover since I was a little girl. I grew up with dogs and cats my whole life and have experience with feeding, walking, and playing with fur babies of all ages. I am currently in my clinical year of PA school. Unfortunately, I don’t have a set schedule as every few weeks my rotation changes and I get a new schedule. However, I am usually free on weekends and am willing to get up early or stay up late any day of the week to care for your pets. I have a large fenced in yard. I also have 1 dog at home who is very friendly as well as two cats who are shy and are usually hiding, but don’t mind other animals.
“I booked Lindsay back to back weeks for drop-in visits. Lindsay was so great with all 3 of our dogs. They were so happy to see her. She was on time, walked, fed and played with them and sent the best pictures. I highly recommend Lindsay and will be using her again.”
“Tricia was wonderful with our 2 cats. We were away for a weekend for our daughter’s wedding so we needed someone that would care for them like we would. Tricia did that & more. It was wonderful to not have to worry about our fur babies while we were celebrating our human baby. Thank you Tricia!”

About: I have many years of experience caring for cats and dogs, I grew up with 3 dogs and 2 cats, and I have 5 years of experience dealing with cats with Feline Diabetes. I have 4 cats that I love and care for every day, they are my whole world! I am available on nights, weekends, and holidays. In my clients home, I would get to know the animals first and make them feel comfortable with me, and make sure I listen carefully to the clients instructions on how to care for the pet(s).
“Gabby really loves my senior, special need Min Pins. She often texts me and asks how they are doing even on her days off. Gabby has gone above and beyond to complete scheduled drop in visits for my girls even if there was a winter snow storm the night before! I feel very comfortable with Gabby entering my home on an almost daily basis during this difficult time of Covid precautions. All my interactions with Gabby have been pleasant and supportive of my furbaby's needs. I could give no higher recommendation...”

“Staci was great. She made two visits to my home for my pups while I was gone for the day to take them outside and feed them. My boys LOVED her. She sent me pictures of them cuddling on her lap. I was a little jealous. LOL I will definitely be using her again.”
“Kelly is the cat whisperer (for dogs too!!) My 7 month of age ‘Cornish Rex” Luna loved Kelly for knowing everything about kitten/cat life. She provided play time, kitty meal time, along width affection. And during Luna rest time her liter boxes and dishes were cleaned. Kelly also advised me regarding a skin care question I had about Luna too. She is very professional, reliable and experienced with dog/puppy care too. I highly recommend her with confidence.”

“You couldn’t ask for a better person for the job! Liz is a very dedicated, compassionate and reliable pet caregiver, very professional! Not only does your pet feel comfortable, but Liz enjoys what she is doing and that’s what makes the difference! She has a special connection with annimals and they naturally gravitate to her with her kind, patient and friendly manners. She has a way of assuring your pet that although your owner is not there, they are safe. She is kind and compassionate….she takes time to carefully assess your pets needs. She doesn’t just to through the motions! She engages! To me, those qualities are what makes the difference! She is the best! 🐾”
