“I couldn’t be happier with Erica’s services she provided for me! I knew my fur baby would be in great hands.

6. Karlyn H.
“Karlyn is the answer to our prayers! Seriously! We have a giant breed, a large breed and a stubborn English bulldog who is thinks he’s in charge. Karlyn clearly loves each one of them and it shows in the videos and pics she sends. Having peace of mind leaving our furry family behind is no longer a stressor for my family. Thank you Karlyn!!”

8. Sophia Y.
“Soph has taken care of my two dogs a couple times already and I highly recommend her! My dogs love her and she does a great job staying in touch and keeping me updated with texts and pictures. My dogs instantly connected with her and she makes sure to spend extra time with them when she is letting them out. Don't hesitate to hire her to take care of your pets!”
9. Kylie E.
“I highly recommend Kylie for the care of your dog (and any other pets). She is the most loving, caring, and compassionate person you can find to care for your furry family members. Kylie is great at providing for the daily needs of your pet, but also very skilled in knowing when your pet is ill or needing medical attention, so you won't need to worry if an emergency situation were to arise with your pet. Kylie has worked for many years full time in animal care and comes with much experience in caring for many kinds of animals. Your animal will be taken care of but also will have fun while in Kylie's care.”
10. Lindsey M.
“Lindsey was so kind and personable and easy to work with! She obviously loves animals, was very friendly, and flexible with her schedule to meet our needs.

“Ashley was wonderful! She was easy to communicate with, very responsive, and sent regular updates of our girls which we always appreciate. We’ll definitely rebook with her!”
12. Ava N.
About: I have cared for for all different dog breeds and sizes for friends and family, including senile dogs who require certain medication and diets, as well as and puppies who are learning to potty train. I enjoy going on long walks or runs with pups who are active, or taking them to dog parks to get their energy out. It's rewarding getting to know each dogs unique personality and consistently showing them lots of love. My hands on experience with dogs has given me the ability to recognize each dogs needs and how to give them the proper attention they deserve. Being a full time college student leaves me with a relatively open and flexible schedule through weekdays. Pet care fits into my availability on Mondays and Wednesdays, anytime before 9am, as well as from 11am till 4pm. Tuesdays and Thursdays leave me with open availably before 9am and anytime after 2pm. I am also available for nighttime visits any night of the week. I am free all through weekends for puppy care and play time. I care for each individual pet by making sure they are being fully attended to while away from their owner. This includes giving them adequate play time, socialization with other pets if needed, proper feedings and treats, grooming and comfort and safety.
13. Payton H.
“Payton would love your dog as if it were her own! She is so caring and loving. She would make an excellent friend for your pet! She is working her way through college. She is reliable and hard working!”
14. Luke H.
“Luke is a responsible young man with years of experience being around dogs. He himself has 2 large dogs. His extended family members have both large and small dogs of various breeds and dispositions that Luke has handled wonderfully.”
15. Megan R.
“Megan was AWESOME! She house sat for my wild pack of dogs for a solid week. She sent daily updates, dealt with a puppy, a senior, and two little dogs like a professional. She left the house cleaner than it was when she got here. I would trust her to house sit again in a heartbeat - I can't speak highly enough of this young lady. If you're looking for a sitter, you're not going to find a better one. Thank you Megan!!”
16. Daniel S.
“Danny is very attentive, interactive, loving, and caring when it comes to his human friends & pet friends! He doesn’t just worry about feeding them properly and letting them outside quickly just to “do their business”. He is very athletic & likes to incorporate physical activity into their daily lives as well- multiple times a day if possible. I honestly can’t imagine his life without a dog in it. It would be an honor for you to have Daniel care of your pet!”
17. Jayden O.
“Jayden is really good with pets in general--any kind. He has a dog and a cat at home who are both super well cared for. Even though they're both "family" pets and not technically "his"; he takes care of both of them really well and is always kind to them. He always makes sure they've both been fed, and makes sure that the dog gets let out when he needs to be. Furthermore, he always makes sure they are both loved and looked after in general. Jayden also is good with pets that aren't his own. My family was dog-sitting at one point and the dog did not warm up easily to new people, so he was flipping out when Jayden was visiting my house. However, Jayden remained calm and got the dog to relax enough so that he could take it outside in the hopes that he (the dog) would stop freaking out; which he did. It took some time and some care, but Jayden knows what he is doing with pets, and it really shows. Jayden is very kind, loving and knowledgeable with animals of all kinds, and would be the perfect person to watch over other peoples' pets because the love and care that he shows his own pets, transfers over into all others.”
18. Sheri O.
“Sheri is great with my dogs, always willing to spoil them with toys, play fetch, and take them on walks, my dogs are always happy to see her!”

About: Provided comprehensive care for multiple pets, including feeding, grooming, administering medications, and ensuring overall well-being. Developed strong knowledge of animal behavior and health needs through hands-on experience. • Volunteer Kennel Assistant (3 years): Assisted in the daily operations of a busy kennel, supporting staff with animal care, cleaning enclosures, feeding, and exercising dogs. Helped manage intake and provided comfort to animals awaiting adoption. Behavioral Socialization (5 years): Worked closely with animals exhibiting aggression, anxiety, and other behavioral issues, using positive reinforcement techniques to promote socialization and improve behavior. I mainly work nights but with my career I have a large amount downtime at home and throughout the day. My schedule is flexible and open I treat each animal as my own and understand what boundaries they are comfortable with. I will not make them feel unsafe or unsure when around me.
20. Sara C.
About: I’ve been trusted to care for the precious pets of family members and friends, including feeding them, playing with them, watching them, and walking them. I love cats and dogs! I currently do not have another job, so I will be able to spend a lot of quality time with your pets this summer! However, I will be taking classes starting in August, so my availability will change then. I am very gentle and loving towards all animals. As of now, I only have 1 cat, and he is my world! His name is Mario, and he is 19 years old! I give him lots of attention, love, and I always talk to him very sweetly. He’s my baby! I have many friends and family members with cats and dogs that I love to visit and play with as well!
