She follows care instructions very well as I'm pretty particular when it comes to the care of my furry children. Emily would be an absolute asset for any animal care company or service.”
15. Walter R.
About: I’ve loved animals since I was 10 and I’ve loved taking care of pets over the small periods I’ve had them. They truly are amazing to having around and they make my normal very exciting! I’m usually free 3-4 hours a day that I can dedicate to taking care of pets! Most nights I just do homework and relax so having a pet to take care of wouldn’t be bad! I try my best to make sure the pet feels comfortable and loved! When I’ve taken care of my friends pets they always seem to love me because I try my best to make them feel happy!

19. Shelby H.
About: I've been caring for dogs my whole life. I've grown up around them and have loved them for as long as I can remember. I worked at a doggie daycare/boarding/training facility before I moved to the Springfield area. I would love and care for your dog as if he/she were my own. I enjoy going on walks and love making trips to the dog park. I'm reliable and respond in a timely manner, however I do have a full time job (m-f, in office) so I would only be able to help around that schedule. I look forward to working with you and your fur baby. I work full time, Monday through Friday during the day but usually am traveling Monday through Wednesday. I also have my own pup that requires my attention but I’m more than happy to drop in and check on yours around those times. I’m comfortable caring for dogs in whatever way is needed by them and the owner. Happy to work with dogs that need a little extra attention during their walks or feeding time.
