“Mary A. is a very thoughtful and loving person who has taken care of two of my dogs in the past. I had a golden lab and a golden doodle that absolutely loved her!

14. Hettie V.
About: We've had dogs since I was 10 years old. They ranged from Rottweilers and German Shepherds to Beagles and Dachshunds. I love dogs as much as they love me. I firmly believe the more love and attention you give them, the more love they give you! It would be my honor to take care of your pets in your home where they feel safe. I will happily walk your dogs, check in on them, or house-sit for you. I’m retired and am available any time of day. I take any responsibility for your pets very seriously. As I am retired, my schedule is wide open. I can walk your dogs, check in on them, or house-sit for you at any time of day. The only reason I can't board your dogs is that we already have five dogs at home. I am very patient and will give your dogs all the love they deserve. I am used to giving medication in their food, but if necessary, I can also administer it orally. They will never be without fresh water, and food will always be on time.


15. Elva A.

“Elva was very responsive. She texts frequent updates on my fur babies. She shows up on time and ensures all of my animals have all of their needs and wants met. She made sure everyone was happy and safe. She answered any questions I had promptly. She shows true love and care for animals.”


16. Brooke & Daniel W.

“Brooke had great communication during drop in visits for our kitty! She was also patient with our shy guy and allowed him time to come out and investigate on his own. We knew our kitty was in great hands while we were out of town!”


17. Baylee C.
“Baylee has cared for my dog several times, and every experience has been wonderful. She’s incredibly responsible, attentive, and clearly loves animals. One time, my dog wasn’t feeling well while I was away, and Baylee went above and beyond. She kept me updated, adjusted her routine, and made sure she was comfortable. I came home to a happy, healthy pup and total peace of mind. She’s someone I fully trust with my dog, and I’d recommend her to anyone looking for a loving and dependable pet caregiver.”


18. Katie C.

“Katie has been an absolute blessing as our pet sitter! She's attentive, caring, and treats our furry family members like her own. With Katie, we can travel worry-free, knowing our pets are in the best hands possible. Her reliability and genuine love for animals make her the best pet sitter we've ever had! We also love how she always communicates with us and updates us when needed.”


19. Jacki H.
“Jacki is a true friend to dogs everywhere! I so appreciate how loving and careful she is with our pup, Chuck, and he loves her. I know I can trust Jacki to keep Chuck safe and healthy.”


20. Lyric E.
“Lyric has such a soft spot for all animals. Anywhere we go or anyone she runs into, she’s always finding a dog or a cat or even a reptile of some sort to love on. There is no one I would trust more with my animals than Lyric. She’s caring and compassionate for everyone’s 4 legged friends, and will treat them as if they were her own companions.”
