“As reluctant as I was to allow a stranger to come into my home, I was that much more hesitant to allow a stranger to walk my three dogs, in the end I knew I had no other choice but to hire someone due to my work schedule. While searching I came across Jef’s profile and I decided to go with him in booking dog walking for my three dogs. Jef even came to meet my dogs before he was to begin walking them the following day. From the initial message to the first time meeting, Jef maintained great communication and updated me each day after their walks. Jef definitely has something about him that made my dogs very comfortable around him. He quickly gained their trust and vice versa. Jef is also very persistent and knowledgeable in training dogs and helping to improve any bad leash habits. I will definitely be booking Jef for any future needs and I would definitely recommend him to anyone with pets.”

“Lily is a very responsible and loving pet caregiver. She takes great pride in ensuring your pets will be well taken care of. Whether it is providing love or being a great companion to your fur baby, Lily can handle it all. She is amazing, sweet, kind, and caring”

About: Enrichment. Walks. Adventure time. With me, you will always have an energetic individual who will go the distance! I go hiking 3+ days out of the week and am a natural pet-lover. This would showcase that I will always have the stamina to walk with your animals. I also keep a tight schedule and vow to always stick to the routines, recommended needs, and other care information that you provide. At the end of the day, a pet is truly a human’s best friend and deserves the best care. I hope you keep me in mind when you need an individual to look after your animal! Only the best care for them. I also have a reactive dog in-training, so I have tons of hands-on experience! Sincerely, Shileen Andico I’m currently working full-time as a teacher, with summer off as of June 10th! This leaves me available for all times available for walks, check-ins, etc! Working with a reactive dog, I understand that care and making a dog feel safe is always top priority! I will ensure that your dog will feel comfortable with me.

About: Pets and people go hand in hand. I take care of people and now I will care for your Pets. They will be treated with love and care for as long as they need. I am a full time worker, but I am flexible. I will fit your pets into my schedule so you don't have to worry about them.

About: I am a dog owner of 2 German shepherds and previously I had 2 black labs. I have trained them all to be off leash walkers and very well mannered in public areas. My love for animals is dramatic and I aspire to give the affection to more animals than I can contain in my own home. I am a stay at home mom so I am home all day every day. Our weekend are typically free outside of an arcade visit on some Saturdays. I am vigilant in my efforts to keep dogs safety and happiness my top priority. My dogs have given me so much in my life that I only want every dog to have the best life they can live. I am excited to show animals the love and affection that they lack when their parents go on vacation.

“Charlene has taken care of our dog on numerous occasions including weekend trips. She took care of our fur baby as if she were her own. Our dog loves her so much we call her Aunt Charlene. Bailey is always happy to see her.”

About: I am a dog owner, looking to care for other dogs at my home! I have a very playful 2year old Labrador who would love to have company. Two is better than one. My wife and I would take care and keep an eye on your fur babies when you’re out for travel, short trips, vacaciones holidays or others occasions. I have a fenced yard for play and potty time. I also have a full house so you dog would never be alone because I work from home and so does my wife. We let our dogs roam free in the house.

“Chelsea is great! She responds quickly, shows up on time, is flexible, and has worked with me to address my dog’s needs. My dog takes a while to warm up to people, but she felt comfortable with Chelsea almost immediately and I did as well. If you are in the Jackson area I highly recommend Chelsea as a dog walker.”

Josiah is very friendly and has a very professional attitude and work ethic. Josiah love all animals and enjoys spending time interacting with dogs and cats of all breeds.”

“Linda is a very caring loving person specially when it comes to animals. She has taken care of my 2 pups quite a few times and my dogs love her! I have one who has severe separation anxiety and he does so well with her. She is a great candidate for this.”

“Thank you for today! I would recommend sabrina100% my pups love her. We’ll be taking our pups to her more often. Thank you so much !”

“Aixa set up a meet and greet with my St Bernard puppy and we could tell right away she was a perfect match . We are visiting from out of state and she was very accommodating with our crazy schedule . Mabel gets so excited when she sees her outside ready to take her on her walk ❤️. I am a super worrier and Aixa has been awesome ! I can’t recommend her enough for all your animal needs”

“Nina is responsible and dependable. It is comforting to me to know that my 2 dogs are in good hands when she is walking them. I will definitely call on her again!”

“I am so happy to know Jenny is looking after my pup- Baby. To be able to leave her in her own home with Jenny is the best. She looks after the house and the dog very well. With the cost of dog hotels this has to be the best choice. Plus I don't have to worry about my pup picking something up. You can enjoy your business trip or vacation knowing that the pup is getting the best care and isn't in some place in a crate thinking she has been deserted. After knowing Jenny for nearly 20 years, I can recommend her. I have never met Jenny when she hasn't been up beat and a pleasure to be around, so when you get home you have a happy pup and a smiling face to greet you.”

About: UPDATE: 12/07/2023:Moved to San Jose and do not offer boarding or daycare at this time. My children and I started watching dogs in 2013 as a way for them to have the experience of having a furry friend and the responsibility it teaches. Over the years we have had the pleasure of bonding with regulars (the dogs, cats and sometimes the people too!) learning about breed specific tendencies and characteristics and have and continue to enjoy having the furry guests stay with us. My kids have since grown up and moved out on their own. Restless in my empty nest I have moved on. As such my house is no longer available for boarding. However, I am continuing to house sit which I started doing about a year or so prior to having doggy guests. I am also available for drop in visits and walking services. Feel free to contact me with any questions! Cheers! I work remotely with an occasional trip to visit project sites. My schedule is flexible enough to fit with your pups needs as closely as possible so they have some consistency. Dog/cat/house-sitting provides a familiar environment for the animals to be most comfortable in. However, a potential issue arises when a dog is particularly territorial and the sitter seen as an invader. Please keep this in mind when requesting a house-sitter. As the temporary care taker of the domain and those subject to that sphere of influence I do my utmost to keep things as normal and routine as absentee authority. Having a stranger in the home can make people a bit uneasy. Cameras in "common areas" can help bring some relief. Being able to "pop in" is convenient. If you do not have cameras we can schedule video chats if you like. Trust is built over time and communication about likes and dislikes is very much appreciated. I do not have other people that tag along with me but if I could persuade her, I'd bring my daughter. But this would be discussed and done with permission of course.

About: I had a Basset Hound named George that I had gotten from an animal shelter in 2009, the vet guessed his age to be around 6. He was the sweetest and goofiest character that kept me entertained every day! He was diagnosed with lung cancer in June of 2016. The vet said he only had 6 mos. to live without treatment. I dedicated all my time and energy to help this dog live as long as possible with chemo and radiation treatments and a slew of medications. He lived exactly 2 years after his diagnosis. Up until his very last day you would have never known this special boy had an illness. He was an amazing dog and very dear to my heart and I still miss him every day. I will take this same dedication to take care of your pet because I know how special they can be to someone!! I work 10 hour shifts during the day in the xray field. I would be available on the days that I'm not at work to do drop in visits or walks. I would follow any instructions or rules you set for me. I think everyone has a different opinion on what is best for their pets. It's as simple as that!!

“Shawna was great and handled our exuberant giant dog like a pro. Would highly recommend her!”

About: I have been taking care of pets since I was 8 years old. I started off my taking care of my own dogs and cats then I started taking care of other people’s pets because I love animals and love to spend time with them. I have taken care of big and small dogs and cats. I rescued my own cats and slowly showed them that they didn’t have to be scared of people. I taught my dogs tricks using basic commands. Being able to take care of animals brings me so much joy. Currently I am available to walk or do drop ins Monday-Friday from 12 pm to 10 pm and before school before 7:15. Sometimes I may also be available on weekends. I have a fenced backyard for my dogs to run around in. I feed my animals twice a day and make sure they always have water to drink. My cats love to come in and out of my house as they please. I make sure to exercise my dogs and horses multiple times a week by taking my dogs on walks.

“Cheyanna, watched over both of my pups numerous times. My boys love her! I would highly recommend her to any pet owner! She's great 😃”
