“Vicky is a great pet sitter - the dogs love her, she's good with the cats and she's very dependable. My girlfriend and I have a 60 lb 9 month old husky mix and a 75 lb 19 month old lab/border collie mix. Needless to say they can be quite the troublemakers, but Vicky is great with them -- you can tell she's been around animals her whole life. Before hiring her, we asked her a number of questions to see her opinions and beliefs on training and care-taking of dogs. We can be quite particular since we tend to go above and beyond researching anything related to the dogs and their health, but Vicky showed that she has done her homework and that she has a lot of experience with pets. She is also very responsive via text and does great at keeping me updated. Definitely found the right dog walker/sitter! Thanks Vicky!”

About: I have had and taken care of dogs since I was about 8 years old. I've had friends and family members rely on me for doggy sitting, bathing, and walking. I definitely believe that dogs are family not just pets and they deserve to be treated as family members. I have a pretty open schedule so I'd love to work with doggos and their humans to find what suits their need. I want to get to know every individual to get to know to best way to be of service! I'm willing to give needed care and playtime for fur babys with a variety of needs or personalities. I love going on walks for fresh air and sunshine as well.

About: We have both grown up surrounded by all kinds of animals of every age range, big and small, along with some volunteer work at various shelters. Emily is currently a nursing student and Johnny works full time. We work together at our bookings and at least one of us should always be available! We are more than happy to update you with lots of photos and videos if you wish, we also have a dog of our own, Bear! He is social and friendly and we would love to have him tag along with us if allowed! As for animals coming to our home, they will need to do well with other people and animals in order for us to accommodate.
About: I was raised with lots of puppies and other animals. I have two fur babies now, Oakley and Remi! I would love to visit your babies and keep them company while you are away from them. I work full time but have a couple days off a week on a rotating schedule. I am willing to travel and make our schedules work together as best as possible. Leaving your pets is very difficult but I would love to be able to help ease your worries! I am responsible and trustworthy. You would not have to worry about the job not getting done.
About: I’ve loved dogs since I was a small child but as I’ve gotten older I’ve become extremely interested in the training and grooming side of things. I’ve got experience with dogs ranging from 3 months to as old as 15 years old. I myself go hiking and walking with my dogs (2 year old Australian cattle dog mix) on a daily basis so I’m familiar with regularly exercising dogs. I’ve walked dogs for family members and friends so I’m familiar with walking dogs of all sizes, shapes and temperaments. I’m currently unemployed so I spend more of my time walking and hiking with my personal dogs, I’m very focused on dog training as well. I typically spend about 4-6 hours a day out with my dogs. I’ve been a pet sitter for various family members, sometimes staying with their pets for up to a week. Daily walks, mental stimulation and some training goes a long way for a pup being taken care of by someone else!

About: I have taken care of every type of animal since I was 16 years old. I have gone to school for animal science as well to currently working on my degree as a veterinary technician and animal nutritionist. From puppies to geriatric dogs. To newborn kittens and senior cats. I can also take care of any reptiles or amphibians. Anything you need of me, I can do, including rodents. Distributing medication or even helping your dog do their daily exercise. I have knowledge and experience with previously working at the Emergency Veterinary Clinic. * Hi! Thank you for your interest in having me watch your loved ones while you plan to be away.
