5. Cecelia P.
“Cecelia is wonderful and has been a god send as our recent work schedule changes left us unable to give our sweet boy the mid-day time and attention he needs. She always sends updates and pics after her daily walks with Kylo and asks how he is when she’s not with him. I would absolutely recommend her and so would Kylo!! 😊”

I can crate, gate them in, leash them outside, fluff their pillows for them, whatever they need!
10. Tony N.
“There's something quite unique and captivating about watching Tony interact with dogs. It's not just his undeniable expertise or the way he tends to each dog's specific needs, it's the genuine love and care that he pours into every moment he spends with them. Our canine friend, Max, has never warmed up to anyone the way he did with Tony. It's as if Max could sense that Tony speaks his language, a silent pact of trust formed between them almost instantly. Tony doesn't just 'look after' dogs, he embraces them as cherished family members, providing them with the kind of love and comfort every pet owner dreams of for their furry friend. In a world filled with impersonal and hurried interactions, Tony's heartfelt care is a refreshing testament to the deep bonds that can be formed between humans and animals. I cannot recommend him highly enough." Feel free to adjust as per your specific experiences with Tony!”
11. Pamela B.
“Boon enjoys Pam's visits and walks. He gets a full 30 minute walk with her and she takes several nice photos en route. Pam made sure to understand what Boon's needs were and was attentive to them. We'll definitely be repeat clients!”
12. Mary S.
“Mary really came through for me when I needed a last minute sitter. She arrived a few minutes early, and walked my boy. She made sure to ask follow up questions pertaing to giving him food, water, or treats. Pictures were sent to ease the mind of parents like me.”
13. Kimberly B.
“Kimberly is the best! she loves animals and has 5 dogs of her own, not to mention the cats, ferrets, etc! i never hesitate in leaving pet in her care!”
14. Brittany L.
“I have used Brittany on several occasions to cat sit for my 3 cats. She is reliable and honest. She has made herself available on short notice, and around my cat’s medication time schedule. She has administered shots to them, separate them during feeding times as they required specialized food. She always sends videos/pics of them during her visits; as well as updates, putting my mind at ease. She gushes over them all and plays with them. I know she is a true animal lover in tune with each of their personalities. My cats are always calm and happy when using Brittany, which allows me to enjoy my take away.”

About: What sets me apart as a dog sitter is my comprehensive approach to pet care, emphasizing not just the physical but also the emotional well-being of the animals under my care. With a background in animal behavior, I specialize in training puppies, using positive reinforcement techniques to establish good habits early on. For senior dogs, I provide gentle care tailored to their unique needs, ensuring they remain comfortable and engaged despite any age-related challenges. Additionally, I am skilled in administering medication and first aid, for I am an EMT. This makes me well-prepared to handle a wide range of health needs. My commitment to regular, open communication with pet owners means you'll always stay updated on your pet's adventures and well-being. Whether it's a high-energy puppy or a senior dog, I strive to create a nurturing environment that feels like a second home to every pet. Pet care seamlessly integrates into my daily routine, reflecting my genuine passion for animals and their well-being. Each morning starts with a dedicated time for outdoor walks or playtime, ensuring my dog under my care get the exercise and stimulation they need to start their day happily. Throughout the day, I balance my own work and responsibilities with regular check-ins, play sessions, and cuddle times, maintaining a comforting presence for my pet. Weekly, I allocate specific days for longer adventures or visits to dog parks, where my dog can socialize and enjoy a change of scenery, enhancing their physical and mental health. For my dog with specific training routines or medical needs, I schedule consistent times for these activities to ensure they receive consistent care and attention. Caring for pets, whether in my home or a client's, revolves around ensuring safety, comfort, and a lot of love. Here's how I approach both scenarios: In My Home I ensure my home is pet-proofed, with no small objects they can choke on, secure trash cans, and safe, comfortable resting areas.I maintain a consistent schedule for feeding, walks, and playtime, aligning as closely as possible with their usual routine to minimize stress. Each pet receives individual attention, from belly rubs to personalized play sessions, ensuring they feel at home. If compatible, I carefully introduce pets to my resident animals or other pets under my care, supervising interactions to foster positive social experiences. Regular grooming sessions are part of the care, along with prompt clean-up of any accidents to maintain a hygienic environment. In the Client's Home Keeping pets in their familiar environment reduces stress. I follow their usual routine for meals, walks, and bedtime.I ensure the home is secure at each visit, checking locks and monitoring any potential hazards. I engage pets with their favorite toys and activities, ensuring they get plenty of exercise and mental stimulation. Regular updates, including photos and messages, keep pet owners informed and reassured about their pet's well-being. For pets with specific dietary or medical requirements, I meticulously follow provided instructions to administer medications or prepare meals.

19. Esther K.
About: I’ve taken care of dogs throughout my entire life, whether it’s for a family member, friend, or neighbor. I have lots of experience with all different types of breeds. I now have three Belgian Malinios that always need a lot of attention: I go on long walks/ hikes, feed and cook them food, play with them, and can even train themed. I love spending time with dogs and truly love taking care of them! I am a college student and have a part time job however I am really good at managing my time and do have free time during the week and even more free time during the weekends. I do have a fenced house where dogs can run around in the backyard. I love to play with dogs inside and outside the house and would love to cuddle them too.
