Janet was great with the pup. She was able to meet up before the scheduled visits for intros and to answer any questions. She was very accommodating and provided plenty of updates while looking after the pups. Would definitely recommend and would be happy for her to look after our dog again!

About: Life long dog lover. I have been a dog owner my whole life. I have a relaxed, loving and safe home for belly rubs. Seniors and Small friendly breeds welcomed. I am currently working part time mostly remote. So I have plenty time to give attention and love to your doggie. I’m available for boarding and walking. I have a fenced back patio for the fur babies. My guest have full range of the home. I have a multi poo myself and I can easily crate your dog if needed at your request.

Our cat couldn't get more attention and care. He's very social and loves attention, amd she gave it! Proof was in the amazing pictures we received. Battlecat is super special and our fur baby, so this means a lot. Its heartbreaking to leave him, but when we do, we know he is treated so well by MacKenna. ❤️

About: I have had all different kinds of dogs my whole life. They have all lived long and healthy lives. I also always dog sit for my friends when they are out of town. I am currently working part time at a gymnastics gym for kids but I will usually work on the weekends. I have school in the mornings Monday-Wednesday. Anytime after that or any other day of the week I’m free to pet sit. I have 3 pets at home. They all get along and play around a lot. I walk them daily and make sure they have water at all times and feed them when it’s time.

About: I’m highly reliable and flexible. I can meet the needs of you pet and will give them the attention they require. I’m a stay at home mom and I would enjoy the presence of your pet to help me stay productive. The number of walks per day will depend on your location. I’m able to dog sit up to 5-7 days a week. Over night stays would be discussed depending if your pet sleeps indoor or outdoors. It is very possible at my home but I would like to know any important details about your pet I should know about when going to bed. I prefer for your pet to be child friendly as well. I’m looking forward to meeting any friendly pet that comes my way.

About: The reflection of a person reflects how a domesticated animal will come to be. Thoughts like these make me want to understand more of why we were put on this world. Animals make me happy. They do things so flowingly and naturally and it’s so unique because it’s so simple. They don’t want to do it, they just do it. Each dog and cat all have their quirks and differences which is why they are so special to me being that all animals are special as well. These thoughts and experiences help me into exploring more of what I want to be as a person with animals and how this could help me to become what I aspire in being and beyond. I go to the gym almost everyday about an hour and a half. I go out most of the weekends usually between 2pm to 1am. 3 adults also live in our household and they already take care of most of the pets in our household. Every single moment counts as animals are in every single moment as well since they are being. To this moment I am still learning to understand all of my pets, they all have their differences and that is what I love so much. I have be different with each one. Adapting is such a big challenge for me because it can require a vast amount of patience and effort. Sometimes things will not go the way you want it to and that’s ok. There will always be another moment to try. These thoughts and reasons are what I want to apply when I’m studying new animals and how I can gain their trust.

Leah took such good care of Petunia during my trip abroad. I felt I did not need to worry at all, especially since Leah gave appropriately detailed summaries of her check ins. She didn't miss anything, and has gone above and beyond with every visit. I can tell she truly cares about Petunia's well being, and that gives me great comfort as well. Thank you so much, Leah!

About: I have lived with animals all my life, usually a combination of cats and dogs. I always ensure the pets I take care of feel safe and at home. I have also owned a hamster and a frog so far! Im currentlly between full time jobs, so I can make taking care if your animal my full time job if needed! I still plan on sitting once I get settled because I love caring for animals anyways. I am immensely patient, and will try my best to ensure trust can be built between myself and your pet when caring for them. I love playing with pets and my past dogs were always hard leash pullers.

About: I have been around animals my entire life, growing up with 2 dogs, then fostering kittens, having a hamster, two rabbits, and horses. Animals are very important to my live and are a big passion of mine. I have been the sole caretaker of the foster kittens for about 6 years, and have a cat of my own at college with me. My family also has a dog who I grew up with, Finn, and several family cats. We also have two horses who I have ridden and cared for for 10 years, and miss everyday I'm at school. I do have classes throughout the week, but with an hour to two long gaps, I have plenty of time to visit during the day. I would not be able to care for pets in my home, but I can visit to let them into the yard, take them for walks, feed them, or just keep them company.

About: I have taken care of animals since I was a kid! I love meeting new animals and caring for them. My experience ranges from boarding animals for 7 days, to doing stop-by visits multiple times per day. I not only love animals but I love giving families the peace of mind that their animal is in good hands. I’m a very caring mother and pet owner who is diligent and flexible. Having pets of my own my whole life, I’ve learned how to care for, engage and love all sorts of animals. I’m looking for families that need help either as a one-time getaway or on a regular basis! I’m happy to help. My goal in life is to have time and flexibility to be with my family, and caring for pets allows me that freedom! Looking forward to helping you and your furry friend. I’m currently available to help in any capacity! Feel free to reach out. I am a full-time mom and have an open schedule. I have a large home with plenty of room for your pet! There are grass areas and plenty of shade. My neighborhood has great trails where we can walk dogs. I love all animals and always treat them well! I will be sure to send you updates and photos if requested.

I was really impressed with Kelsey's kind and sweet ways with my Sammy! He doesn't warm up to easily, and this would have been the very first time I would have left him with a sitter. I have got to say Sam liked Kelsey very much, and came and laid by her, and ate his treats, and really warmed up to her and made me feel oh so comfortable for when I do have to leave him in the future. Kelsey sent me notices when she was on her way here and had wonderful conversation with me once she got here, since I was unable to attend my trip. She was so caring, I wouldn't hesitate to hire her again to take care of Sam, especially now that I have gotten to know her, and was able to see her interact with my precious Sammy. Kelsey was Great!

A heartfelt THANK YOU to Denise for taking care of Gemma (& all the house hiccups) this past holiday week! She kept our minds at peace while we were back East thousands of miles away. Perhaps the best compliment I can give Denise...I have had about a dozen sitters over the past 10 years and Gemma was the most calm and like herself upon our return out of any sitting experience I have ever had. So grateful for you, Denise!

The best cat sitter I’ve ever had. She was extremely attentive and my cats loved her. When I came home it was as if I never left. Cats were not stressed or needed. They were very loved and well taken care of. She even notified me when cats had an accident called me for clean up and did a check up. Very thorough and attentive. I would highly recommend Kirra and she will Be my Permanent pet sitter. 5 star.
