“Juliet is super responsive and thoughtful. I was on a few week assignment in the valley and she made their trip much less stressful by giving them a break mid day in sometimes long lonely days at home for them.”


2. Alyah R.

“Alyah is fantastic and reliable. She always checks in after seeing my dog, Patty and tells me how the visit went. Highly highly recommend using her.”


3. Nancy C.

“Where do I begin? Nancy was amazing!! She took care of my Ellie as if she were her own and then some!! She communicated thoroughly about each visit, and she always went the extra mile! Nancy will be my first choice from now on. I can’t thank her enough for giving me peace of mind while I was away! Super friendly, and extremely caring about all animals ? Thank you so much Nancy!! ? Ellie will miss your visits!!”

“Jena is super sweet & trustworthy. My girls were as stress free as can be expected while they was traveling. They were loved on and well taken care of while I was gone.

“Jennifer has been amazing! She's done an excellent job working with my reactive dog - she's patient, strong and kind which has been the perfect blend. She goes the extra mile, putting the care of my clingy little buddy a top priority!!”

About: I’ve taken care of my dogs for about 8 years now. Over the years I’ve learned so much “dog language” and needs dogs have in order to stay happy. I’ve taken care of friends and family’s pets as they relied on me to potty train a puppy, feed their pet, take them outside for playtime, and many more. I’m currently a part-time associate but I don’t work too often. Im also an online university student during spring and fall semesters. Good news is that I have available time to play/care for my pets and possibly others. I have two small dogs so I’m definitely open to care for more. I have a fenced yard and two small, friendly dogs who are very playful. I also have a dog crate in case it will be needed. I have my dogs by my side at all times because it’s important that they are supervised in order to insure their needs are met.


7. Jesse G.
“Jesse is a fantastic, fun caretaker for all pets! I have two cats, one is very friendly and the other not so much, so I'm sometimes a bit worried about how people will react to her, however Jesse has been super respectful and kind when visiting them and always gives me peace of mind when he stops by. Would highly recommend Jesse for your pet care needs!”

11. Sue D.

“Amazing job! Stopped by my house multiple times a day to care for my pups. I was able to leave home and have zero worries. It was also nice to see the dogs daily when she sent pictures of them eating or taking breaks. Also very friendly and knows how to handle big hyper dogs lol Thanks again Sue!”


12. Pauline G.

“I was happy with our decision in choosing Pauline to take care of our 3 cats. She sent us updates and pictures of them and always checked in to see if we needed anything before she left. It’s hard having to leave your pets alone for a while but having her check in on them made me feel better about it all. I’ll definitely reach out to her again for next time :)”

“Margen was great! She responded quickly, made herself available last minute, communicated well, sent pictures of my pup and did exactly what I requested. I would definitely recommend her and will be using her again :-)”


17. Alyson M.
“Alyson is AMAZING!! She watched my fur babies for me while I was on vacation and she did FANTASTIC! My boys love her, her attention to detail and care for animals really shows through her work! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️”


18. Brianna G.
“Brianna had a very special connection with her fur baby, Queenie. It was especially special because Queenie suffered from chronic allergies and chronic ear infections. This required constant visits to the vet, and constant application of medications. But Brianna always tried her best to make accommodations and modifications for her dog. She is kind, caring, and compassionate.”


19. Karla M.
About: Hi! I currently have a little over 3 years as a full time pet transporter. My husband and I travel coast to coast providing ground transportation and round the time care for dogs, cats, reptiles and even exotics. I absolutely love every single furbaby I get to meet and I would love to provide my experience and expertise to care for your furry family members. I do travel constantly for work so I am always available in different states and for different period of time but have plenty of flexibility since I set my own hours and plan ahead when traveling. Being a pet transporter does provide me with plenty of experience in caring for older pups, puppies, kittens, and anxious pets. I can provide a little training I have learned and know of plenty of ways to keep them busy and entertained.
