16. Maddie W.
About: I have grown up with dogs my whole life. Had two labs as a kid, took care of my aunts husky in his senior years, and currently have a chocolate lab wire hair mix with special needs (his name is Chocolate Chip and he is cuter than you are even imagining right now). I have experience with dogs of all sizes and ages, as well as multiple dogs in a household. I love my furry friends more than my human friends sometimes, but don’t tell them that! I work full-time, 8-4:30, Monday-Friday. I have an hour lunch break (12-1pm) that would allow for two client drop-in visits. I currently have one client already, with availability for one additional. I will keep my schedule up to date with when I’m out of town or unavailable. I currently don’t have listed availability on the weekends, but if needed and availability allows, I could be flexible. I am familiar with crate training if that’s something you are working on with your pup. I have a keen eye for detail and I am quite attentive, so if you’ve got a mischievous little nugget, they won’t get away with much around me. Safety is my top priority, but a close second is all the playing and love we can handle!
17. Jayda S.
“Jayda was fabulous!!! I will definitely book her again in the future when I need someone to peak in on my kitties. My kitties were skeptical of a stranger but had no complaints :) Everything I asked her to do was done and I trust her with my kitties 100%!”
18. Jeremiah V.
“Jeremiah took great care of our cat while we were out of town and communicated with us frequently. He was really responsive, plus our cat warmed up to him by the 2nd day of Jeremiah's visits. Jeremiah sent multiple photos and videos each day (and even helped water my plants). Would definitely recommend and book again!”
19. Lacie A.
“I was super nervous leaving my dog with someone, but Lacie was super responsive and sent lots of updates and pictures! Kai seemed to love her! Will definitely be booking again in the future :)”
