About: My family has 3 dogs and I adore them. I absolutely love animals and I believe every pet deserves love and attention. I am a broke college student saving for my future! I hope to use my love for animals to help me financially:) I am a college student so I have a pretty wild schedule. Im free most mornings and afternoons depending on my schedule for my other job. I try to be as flexible as I can! I have 3 dogs at home! I help take them outside 3 times a day considering I do not have a fence currently. I love taking them on walks. My two younger dogs are super energetic so I love playing with them to get their energy out! I love meeting new animals:)
“Did a good job taking care of the pets. A couple of hiccups but stayed in communication well. Snow storm hit at the end of the week and offered extra help just in case. Much appreciated!”
“Ashley did a great job with the kitties for the few days we were gone! She checked in at the start and end of each drop in, and sent multiple photos and updates for us - put our minds completely at ease to know our babies were taken care of!”
“Very thankful to David for visiting my cats on short notice when I had to be out of town unexpectedly. Great communication and detail to our needs. Nice to my boys! Highly recommend David!”
About: I’ve taken care of dogs for most of my adult life. As a kid I was never able to have pets, so as an adult I’ve always had multiple dogs. I love dogs and enjoy their personalities and fun loving nature. Weekends and holidays are spent at home with the family, and the four-legged family members get plenty of playtime! During the week, I work full-time. Our dogs are kennel-trained and enjoy their downtime during the day. Once home, they’re out and a part of all our evening activities. We have a fenced-in yard where they can run and play non-stop. Our fenced-in yard is an excellent space for our four energetic dogs to run and play. They love to play non-stop, and our kids, who are also dog lovers, enjoy playing along with them.
“Sierra was amazing. She kept me continuously informed about my animals, treated them like family, and got to know their quirks and unique personalities over the course of her several visits. I’d book her again without hesitation”
“Abigail was so wonderful the entire visit. My cat Zelda is very timid as she has a rough foster background. However, you can tell how good of a person that Abigail is because of how quickly Zelda warmed up to her! Zelda was already playing and running on day 1 of Abigail’s visit which I didn’t see in previous sitters. I’m glad I can depend on her for future stays 🥰”
“Danette took great care of my cat while I was out of town for a few days over 4th of July weekend! He was well fed and well loved, and I could tell he was very content despite my being away. I would definitely recommend her, and will look to her again if I need care for him in the future.”
“Linda was great with Scout. She arrived on time and sent a picture every day..she managed food and treats and was a great companion for my girl. I hope to have her come again in November.”
