About: I went to Northampton community college where I graduated with my associates degree in veterinarian technician. I also am working currently as a vet tech and love animals so much. I have 3 of my own, yorkie , and 2 pit bulls. Animals are my passion ! I am very dedicated in taking care of your animals. I know about dogs , cats, rabbits , mice , horse and cows and goats. In college I had to care and perform on all. I train my animals time to time and eventually want to go back to college or get a certification in dog training. I love teaching my dogs new tricks or new behaviors that can help them. In college I cared for two Pomeranians that were super cute and playful. I boarded and as well as walked them on days client needed when away. I love every second of just having fun and exercise with your pets!

“To whom it may concern, My name is Michelle, and I have known Alexxys for 8 years, and she has always been a responsible, reliable, and trustworthy friend. Her love and care for animals is unmatched. Throughout our friendship, she has had dogs, and I've seen firsthand how she treats them with the utmost attention, love, and detail. Alexxys is truly amazing when it comes to caring for pets, and I would trust her completely with any dog-sitting job."”

I would recommend her to anyone who wants the most amazing, caring, and loving pet sitter.”

So grateful for Cassidy's help and would recommend her to anyone whose pets need a little extra TLC.”

“Monica is a great sitter. She is very responsible, professional, and attentive to my pet's needs. She is also good with special requests.

20. Mike P.
“Mike cared for our beloved dog for many years when we went away, or if we had an extra long work day. His kind and gentle manner with our pet showed his genuine love and affection for animals. He had a strong understanding of how to interact with animals. Our dog was always excited to see him, reassuring me that he was taking good care of her. Not only did he feed and walk her, but he spent time playing with her, petting her, grooming her, and reassuring her when she was frightened by thunder or loud noises. He watched her behavior closely and let me know if she wasn't eating or drinking normally, or if she seemed lethargic or uncomfortable. Mike was always on time, and always conscientious and trustworthy. I highly recommend Mike Parello for all of your dog care needs. ”
