“We just can't say enough great things about Morgan!! Our girls love Morgan and even though they are happy when we get back home, they whine after she leaves because they miss her too!! I feel like Morgan really cares and treats our babies as if they were her own. 😊”
“Natasha was amazing! She gave our pets so much love and attention while we were away. We appreciated the photos so much! It was a relief coming home to happy and relaxed pups!”
“Very friendly, professional and punctual.She went above and beyond. Felt at ease knowing she was watching my pups. Will definitely be contacting her again when I travel. My dogs responded to her well. Definitely recommend!”
“This was our second time using Tracy and he was just as fantastic this time. We had an overnight trip and needed someone to stay in our home with our dog and two cats and he kept us updated and the pets were happy and safe with him there. I would definitely book Tracy again in the future.”
About: I've taken care of dogs, cats, and more beyond the years. I am reliable and follow directions well. I can handle anything that comes my way. I currently work full time 8-5 so I have time on the weekends to watch your pet or after 5 PM. If you need me to check in your pets like I do mine I can do that as well. I will walk your dog when needed, pet them and give them lots of love. I will take your dog to a dog park and make sure they have a ton of fun.
“Jasmyne was extremely attentive to my pets during her stay! She followed my written wishes and instructions well and left my home in the same condition she found it. My dogs loved her presence while we were away from home and anytime she needed to leave the house she communicated well which I personally enjoyed! I loved not having to worry about my pets while I was in the hospital. Jasmyne also did a complimentary meet and greet before I needed her to stay so my pets would know her and her scent. Overall I’d recommend her to anyone. I can’t wait to use her in the future.”
About: I have dogs and cats of my own. I have also worked at a few animal shelters. Our animals can be as important to us as our own children. I understand this so I will happily send updates and pictures! I work full-time, but more then happy to make time for your furbabies! I just need to know when I am needed in adviced, especially for longer stays. I am happy to ensure your pet has outside time, fed, has playtime, and is comfortable while you are away. I will be sure to send updates and photos of our day!
“They were fantastic! They took care of our baby who is a special-needs dog and made sure he was taking care of and he fell in love with them! In fact, it seems like he wanted to keep them and not us! Lol thank you so much! That’s what we wanted; someone to love our baby like we love on him.”
“Greer stayed at our house for a week and a half while we were on vacation with our sweet pup. She sent lots of picture and updates and we could tell that our pup was having a great time with her. The house was in perfect shape when we got home too. I highly recommend Greer and we will certainly be reaching out to her the next time we are out of town. Thanks again!”
