Jenny was so responsive in her communication with us about Winnie care. She was kind and was so nice to our new puppy! Winnie had a great time and we will definitely be contacting her in the future!

About: Hi everyone! I am currently in higher education, looking to spend my time away taking care of furry friends in the neighborhood. I have experience with animals going back to my first job at 14, working as a pet bather for a groomer for about 3 years. This gave me a range from working with rowdy fun labs to small and fun chihuahuas. I am very active so taking your friend on long walks is perfect for me as well. I am also fine with any different dog breed or cats. Also, no allergies for me! I love all pets large or small, cat or dog, and thank you for trusting me with an important piece of your life. Please feel free to contact me with any more information or questions you may need! I am currently working in higher education, and have some flexibility in my scheduling! Message me anytime if you have specific dates in mind as I will always try and accommodate. I have my own puppy with a fenced in yard. But I am also an active runner and hiker and am able to go on long walks as needed with your pet. I will am very willing to do a meet and greet with you to make sure I can care for your furry family member as needed.

Bradley did a great job following the instructions during the visits with detail. I was impressed with how he handled my dog being over 100 pounds by establishing himself as a friendly presence before interactions. Highly recommend this young man for future opportunities.

I am available most days of the week and weekend except for a select couple weekends this summer. My availability ends mid August. I care for the animals I am in charge of with acute attention. These pets are peoples loved ones, their furry children, and I don’t take that lightly. They deserve love, attention, engagement, and a safe environment for them to succeed in.

About: I have plenty of references and experience with pet care. Growing up, I always had a dog and cat in the home. Currently, I live in an apartment and can’t get a dog. My boyfriend is allergic to cats, so I can’t get a cat either 😢 But I have plenty of friends and family who I have given pet care to. I can read animals pretty well and always prioritize their needs. I currently work full time but would love to use any extra time I have to help out your family. I work 3pm-11pm Sunday-Thursday. I am available all weekends unless my calendar says otherwise. When it comes to caring for pets, I prioritize their needs and make sure they have everything needed. I like to keep the parents in the know of how they are doing and update with pictures as often as possible 😊

It was our cockatiel's first time being cared for by a sitter and Lynne did an amazing job providing us with updates and being attentive to our baby's needs. Our bird is normally very wary and mistrusting of strangers but she seemed already friendly with Lynne by the end of the week! I would trust Lynne to watch over her again

Mollie is extremely responsible and communicative. We’ve had sitters for years, but she especially impressed me because she came to the meet and greet with her own questions and took notes to be sure she understood all about our dog, Cookie. She kept in touch before the drop in visit and worked through a problem with us right away. She earned my trust and we will call on her again for drop in and house-sitting needs!
