Will of course be rebooking with her and I absolutely recommend her to care for your babies too.”

14. Shana S.
About: I’ve had my 3 fur babies since they were all 6-8 months old. 2 chihuahua mixes now 14 years old and 1 maltipoo that’s 12 years old! I am a huge pet lover and try to do my part in assisting with keeping them all safe. Currently, I have a full time job that takes precedence. Weekends would work out best for me to pet sit and care for your babies. Caring for you pet in your home would be as simple as me learning their routine. Allowing you to walk me through what works best for them and what you are comfortable with as well as what they are comfortable with. I am definitely okay with having a schedule or a list to follow.
15. Alyssa B.
“Timely and responsive. All the pics and Buddy was very happy with Alyssa. Nice long afternoon walk!! Will use again- highly recommend!”
16. Kara R.
“Kara was incredibly sweet and kept me well-informed about everything happening with my pets while I was away. She dedicated ample time during her visits, ensuring they received plenty of love and attention in my absence. Trusting a stranger with your fur babies and home can be daunting, but Kara made the experience completely comfortable. I’m truly grateful for her exceptional care. 20/10!”
17. Megan H.
“Megan did a great job watching Sammy and Frank. Great communication and photos! Will definitely request her again in the future when I need some drop in visits.”
18. Eric D.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats for nearly my entire life. I have experience in pets of all ages, ranging from 8 weeks up to seniors as well as a variety of specific medical conditions including deaf and blind animals.
