Savannah did great with my three pups! Kept the whole house clean and sent regular pictures and updates of them all. She strayed later than planned when I was running late so they didn’t have to be alone for too long. Great overall experience and would recommend her to be your next dog sitter!

Hailee was AMAZING!! Ryker took to her right away like he had known her his whole life. He did great while we were gone. We were worried he wouldn't eat well and be sad (he lost his companion a few months ago) but he did so good and ate well. I think it's because Hailee has a way with animals, I think they are drawn to her ❤️. We will definitely use Hailee in the future!

About: I treat every pet like family, making sure they feel safe, loved, and comfortable while you’re away. I’m experienced with dogs of all ages, including seniors and pups with special needs, and I’m great at reading body language to make sure every pet feels at ease. Whether it’s playtime, cuddle time, or just keeping their routine steady, I bring patience, reliability, and a whole lot of heart to every visit. I graduated this May and currently hold a part-time position, so my schedule will be fairly open this summer to give your pup the time and attention they need. When caring for pets in their own home, I make sure to follow their usual routines closely—whether that’s feeding, walking, playtime, or rest—so they feel comfortable and secure. I give lots of attention, cuddles, and positive reinforcement to keep them happy and relaxed. I prioritize clear communication with the pet owner to make sure I’m meeting all their needs and providing the best care possible.

Ashley did amazing with our two dogs. She even paid attention to our GSP whose ears bother him from time to time. We didn’t mention it to her and she noticed…how thoughtful!! Both our dogs are energetic and she did great keeping them happy and feed. She stayed a bit longer on the last day just to make sure they were feed before she left. We appreciate her attention to detail, keeping the house tidy, and our pets happy!!! We will have her back!!!

About: I am passionate about animal care. I love to clean and make sure everyone in the home is as happy as can be. I will treat your pet like a member of my family. I work part time at the post office on Sundays and Holidays and part time at a moving company. My schedule can be very flexible. I like to respect the animals space and not be disrespectful to a stranger in their space. Some animals can be more anxious or have certain needs of care that I’m happy to provide.

About: I have had at least one dog in my home since I was born. I currently have a puppy and he is a blast. I love going on walks, playing at the park, or even taking pups for a swim. I have also working in a boarding facility and in large group play classes. I currently work part time and I am home every night by 5 pm. I come home on all of my breaks to check on my animals daily. Animals would never be alone for more than 3 to 4 hours at a time. I have a very friendly puppy that loves making new friends and I have 3 cats that love to play. I do not have a fenced yard but I do have leads in the yard to allow dogs time to play outside, as well as extra harnesses and leashes to walk then every 2 to 4 hours. I do not like walking without a harness for the animlad safety and mine, I do have extra harnesses if needed.

About: I have taken care of different animals growing up dog sitting, and dog walking is what I normally did! I love going on walks with dogs combines my two favorite things, the outdoors and animals! I have two other jobs but don’t work full time, I usually have a couple days off. When I’m off i like to be outside and doing things! I help make the animals feel safe! I know how some animals can be with their parents gone and it can make them feel scared or abandoned. So being there with them and playing with them can help calm that sense of abandonment!

About: I've had multiple jobs now working with all sorts of different dogs! From puppies to elderly; crazy to lazy. Plus everything else in between. I've worked at a shelter, bathing dogs, and currently a doggy daycare, so I say I've got my far share of experience. I work full time at a doggy daycare, but I am more than capable to stop by before work, during my lunch break, and anytime after work. The 2 dogs that I have take multiple potty breaks throughout the day and get plenty of time to take in the fresh air and roll in the grass.

Alex lived with my wife and I for a little over a year. Alex would take care of our two dogs (Hank and Shelby) whenever we needed help. Both my wife and I work weird hours so Alex took it upon himself to feed and let the dogs out when needed. Alex is still one of the people to this day that we contact if we need someone to help with our dogs. He takes good care of them and makes sure they get what they need whether that is a walk, food, or just simply to play. I would highly recommend him for anyones puppy needs.
