1. Gabrielle L.
“Gabrielle has raised and cared for animals her whole life. She’s patient, and understanding of their unique needs and behaviors. What I’ve witnessed firsthand is a lifetime of nurturing animals, providing love and healthy environments and allowing them to express their personalities in safety and comfort. Personally I think she should have taken steps to enter the care field sooner, the pets will be better for having her.”
2. Lindsay N.
“Lindsay has been caring for me and my dog and cat for years! she's very compassionate and attentive to their individual needs. I trust her to provide for them everytime she has them.”
3. Alyssa S.
About: I have had a dog for most of my life. My family has trusted me with the majority of the care including taking him to the vet, walks, feeding, medications, etc. I love animals. I am currently a college student at WVWC and I play softball. Between classes and practice, I would gladly take my time to care for your pet. I live in a college dorm, but I would gladly walk your pet around our beautiful campus on a daily basis if needed. I would also love to come to your own home to care for your pets.
4. Nawal C.
“Nawal treats pets like her own children! Dogs bring her pure joy and this type of job allows her to do her passion! She will give the best attention, protect and play with your pet to the same degree she treats her own fur baby, Boone!”
5. Sierra C.
“Sierra has watched my cat and both of my dogs several times and I couldn't be more pleased. She treats them with so much love and takes the time to play with them. She takes pet sitting to a new standard. My dogs were exhausted when I got back home and made it super easy to get them to go to bed. I would definitely recommend Sierra and intend to use her again when I need a sitter or drop in call.”
