14. Andrew S.
“Andrew watched my family cats for 2 weeks while we were away. He is friendly and professional and has a very calm demeanor. My cats are medium-friendly, but warmed to him immediately when first meeting him which felt like a good sign. He provided frequent updates through pictures and messages which helped put us at ease given we were away from them for so long. He was always easy to get in contact with, even when our flight home was delayed and we needed one more dinner feeding at a moments notice. We returned to two happy, relaxed and well fed cats. It was clear everything was taken care of, the litter box clean, water bowl filled, and the house was clean and in order. I would highly recommend Andrew!”

18. Hannah C.
About: I have experience caring for small pets, like turtles, Lizards , fish and dogs, I love animals generally and would love to help you care for them while you’re out or away! I work Part Time, Mornings and Afternoons are great! If you have a flight to catch early I can be there early on puppy duty, or If you’re running late, I can wait a little extra too! While I take care of the dog(s) I will make sure the puppies are walked, fed, played with and cared for till we wait for the owner to come home!


19. Irlanda P.
About: I was a soldier in my country, I took my dog training course and worked with many breeds. I really like sharing my time with pets and I will take care of them as if they were my own. I work part-time and I want to share my free time with pets and take care of them as if they were my own and pamper them so that they feel good with me until they return home. I have an empty backyard which I could use for the care and much more of your pets with the greatest security and more confidence
