5. Holly W.
About: I am an attorney in town looking to watch pups for fun on weekends and the occasional weekday. I’ve had dogs since I can remember and really can’t imagine life without them. I also have lots of experience caring for pups with medical needs as well. I have a very passive and friendly chocolate lab, Kona, who loves to play with others. I have a fenced yard in the Wells Avenue Neighborhood near a large park. Kona and I will take good care of your dog. Boarding would be in my home and include walks and park play. Allow me to ease the pressure on your next trip! *party hats occasionally included 🐶* Midday walks are my favorite paired with a pre-dinner park session! Early morning pickup or late drop off - whatever works best for your schedule. Fenced in yard with plenty of room for play time. Pets are free to be on the furniture as well. Meal time is always the best, but we’ll be sure to separate feeding locations to make the home as safe as possible.




6. Jack T.
“I cannot think of a pet caregiver more reliable and loving than Jack. My two dogs absolutely adore going on walks and playing fetch with Jack. When I go out of town on trips, it can be hard finding someone to look after my many different animals, but Jack enthusiastically house sits for my cats and takes care of my critters in aquariums and cages. I know my rabbit is getting the veggies she needs and Jack feeds my gecko, axolotl, and turtle all kinds of different creepy crawlers without flinching. What really stands out are Jack's authentic love for animals and Jack's wealth of knowledge about different kinds of pets. Besides taking incredible pictures of my beloved critters, Jack has a background of working with a veterinary hospital, a doggie daycare, and has experience with boarding dogs and cats. This all pairs nicely with the fear-free approach Jack uses with animals. It's a huge benefit for when I'm on trips and need to rely on someone to help ensure my animals correctly get their prescribed meds. I am so thankful to have Jack's care for my pets and I know they love when Jack is looking after them.”

She loves all animals!”
