“Aaliyah was amazing! I cannot rave more. She sent so many pictures, gave detailed reports, and asked questions to make sure all was done well. I never once worried about leaving my kitties with her. We will be using her again for another trip at the end of the month. I highly recommend!”
About: I am a college student currently pursuing a Biology degree that will be used for entry into veterinary school. I have owned and solely cared for my dogs for over 5 years and have worked at a doggy daycare over the summer. I have experience in all stages of dog life, including puppies and seniors! I also love to give spa days to doggies. I would do anything for my dogs :) I am currently free for the summer, so I will be available everyday of the week until school begins in August. Once school begins, I will be free on Tuesdays and Thursdays all day as well as weekends. Any unsafe items are placed out of reach and toys/treats are always kept hidden to prevent issues with guarding. I live in an apartment and usually take my dogs for long walks in parks. My dogs are completely vaccinated and I am very knowledgeable on sanitary practices to prevent any illness between animals. I also know CPR and basic first aid!
About: Pet care experience Last minute booking is no problem. I love all animals and they love me. I am retired so I can hang out with your pets 24/7. I treat each precious soul like they are a part of my family. Giving your loved ones a massage is the ultimate relaxer when you are away. I've owned dogs and cats my entire life. It only takes one lick to win my heart.Of course, animals are fun and rewarding. The love you give them is surpassed by the love you receive. There is no job too small or too big. I am flexible, available, and attentive to all details. I can adjust pricing according to number of pets and requirements. I recently retired from the business world and I am flexible to needs of owners. This will be my new ‘job’ that I am committed to. At home my dogs are always on leash and are never allowed out on their own. I will provide care that the owner expects. Safety will be my main concern for your furr baby.
About: From rescuing turtles on the side of the road as a kid to taking in all the strays I could handle as an adult, there hasn’t been one that I didn’t love. I will guarantee that your babies will be well taken care of under my care! I am available for drop in visits daily for any pet and dog walking any day, any time. My schedule is very flexible and I will work with your needs! I have a deep love for animals and have since I was a small child. I have owned or taken care of dogs, cats, rabbits, fish, horses, turtles, you name it! I know that every animal is different and I will make sure to help your pet be as comfortable as possible while they are in my care.

Samuel B.
“Samuel did an amazing job, especially for it being last minute. He kept me updated on Oso and was punctual”
Emma H.
“Emma is phenomenal with pets. She takes the time to get to know the dog and genuinely makes the dog feel at home. I could not count the number of times she would be on the ground playing with the dogs at R&R kennels. She cares so much for the dogs she takes care of, you would think they were her own. When my dog, Gizmo, needs groomed she was always on top of it and kept him at his best. She also took him for walks and made sure he was always happy/tired when coming home. He honestly has never seemed more happy or content than when Emma began helping take care of him. A phenomenal dog taker and an even better person!”
Carolyn R.
“Carolyn has been a friend of mine for approximately 2 years. I believe she would take excellent care of someone’s baby. She loves doggies and spoils them rotten!!”
Jessica H.
“We have struggled with pet sitters in the past. I guess we’ve just had bad luck but then we found Mrs Jessica and she has been wonderful. Our dog and cat are both happy!”
Ashley M.
“Ashley has always loved animals, she has a natural touch with them. With her, pets can feel safe and deeply loved. She cares for every pet she meets like they're her own.”
