Meegan is the best. My dogs are so excited to spend time with her. She gives them all the love and attention they need. She’s very reliable and I wouldn’t trust anymore more with our puppies.

Meghan did an amazing job checking in on our cat while we were away! She was professional, kept our house clean, and most importantly, our cat was happy and comfortable. It gave us real peace of mind knowing our pet was in such good hands. Highly recommend!

Emily is sweet and loving. She clearly loves animals and our two pups love her. Emily is dependable and prompt and quickly responds. We are planning to have her back on regular schedule.

About: I bond with pets quickly-they sense my fondness for them and I pay attention to the little things, so I sense what they need to be happy. I am working part-time, so I fortunately get to make my own schedule! I can be flexible with what your specific pet needs are. I always go the extra mile because I enjoy animals so much. We have 2.5 acres of land mostly yard and partially woods with walking trails all over. We have a super friendly and playful 2.5 year old neutered Frenchton named Gus who is 40 pounds and enjoys any and all company! We got our puppy Louie in April 2023. He is an adorable almost 1 year old French Bulldog. Our 2 cats are pretty shy of other humans and pets outside of their family-but they love a good petting and join us on walks! We also have chickens for eggs-but they are outside and safely caged. We spend as much time as possible outside enjoying nature and our pets happily join us!

About: I’ve been caring for animals for as long as I can remember. I grew up with dogs, cats, rabbits, birds and amphibians, so I’m comfortable with animals of all kinds. I’ve also been volunteering at an animal shelter for 1 year, so I know how to read animal behavior and handle the unexpected. I’ll make sure your pets feel safe and comfortable while you’re away. I work full time Monday through Friday, so my availability is after 5pm on weekdays and Saturday mornings and afternoons for walks and drop-in pet care. I follow your pet's routine to a T and send regular photo and video updates so you're never out of the loop. If I notice any changes in behavior I'll let you know right away. I'll leave your home exactly as I found it, follow any house rules you set, and always make sure gates and doors are secured so no one makes a sneaky escape.

I have mainly taken care of older dogs, but they were big and energetic! I also have grown up with a cats, Guinea pigs, fish and hermit crabs at one point! I’m currently a full time college student, but I have room in my schedule to take care of your animals and give them all the love and play they need! Growing up with animals, I am very receptive on how to take care of them. I have dog sat for multiple people and I have had cats my whole life! I will make sure your pet is comforted and well cared for in your home and I will make sure no harm comes to your animal or house.

About: I have taken care of dogs, cats, and other pets for years. Even the shyest of animals end up loving me! I gave my dog the best 13 years he could ever have, and I want to share my love and kindness with other pets while alleviating duties from busy owners. I am a junior at Florida Institute of Technology studying Forensic Psychology and minoring in PreLaw with a light workload, as I am finishing up my time in college. Caring for pets would drastically increase my happiness and improve my quality of life, give the animals necessary exercise, fresh air, and extra love/attention, and help busy owners tend to their duties and relieve their stress. I have a decent living space in my pet-friendly apartment with backyard greenery and a cozy room for them to rest if the animals need.

About: Growing up, I had a Lab and then a Boxer and two cats. I've also helped my aunt at the doggie daycare she runs out of her home where she often has more than 10 dogs at a time. Everything from a Great Pyrenees to German Shepherds to Doodles to Yorkies. And it's always so much fun! The care I'll give your pets will really depend on them and their needs. There's a very large unfenced grass area behind my apartment building that would be perfect for walks or play. And there are multiple parks in the area too we could explore. At yours, I'd keep whatever their normal routine is. Whether that's taking walks, throwing the ball or just sitting and chilling and scratching butts. Their butts of course!

We met Rhonda when she came over for a “meet & greet”. We really liked her and feel she is a perfect fit to take care of our little papillon. Unfortunately, our plans are canceled due to a sick grandchild. We definitely plan on booking Rhonda in the future, she is fantastic and Bode loved her and took right to her, it’s obvious she loves and is great with animals.

About: I'm here to take the stress off your shoulders. As an animal lover, I’m dedicated to providing your pets with the best care possible. From long walks and fun playtime to plenty of good ol' fashioned love, I’ll make sure they feel right at home. I have had a dog since I was 11 and I have taken care of many dogs of various sizes and demeanors. I am free most days of the week as I have classes at night. I would love to use this time to take care of a loving animal. I make it a priority to get to know the animal and make sure there is a sense of trust. I want to ensure that both your animal and I are able to get along well. I enjoy taking dogs on walks and playing with them in the yard.

Wonderful experience - we had to rush out of town twice because of an elderly parent’s health. Samantha was there for us both times even though it was short notice. She saw to our cats needs and even helped out with an issue with unplugging a machine that was left running. Wonderful lady!!!

Steve was great with Miss Hazel. He was timely and attentive to her. Followed our instructions well and gave us lots of updates. In fact when we came home, she expected him to be there. When she didn’t see him, she went looking for him all over the house! We were only gone 2 days and already she loved him! Thanks for the peace of mind while we were away from our girl!

Meegan went above and beyond helping me with the cats and even put seed in the feeders for the birds and even looked out for the wild lame turkey that I have been feeding for the past five years. I would recommend her highly to anyone who needs someone to take care of her animals. She's friendly, reliable, and extremely helpful.
