“Desiree completed multiple drop-in visits (2x daily) during a week-long vacation for my two senior cats. Mr. Twix is diabetic and requires insulin injections twice a day.

I felt comfortable on my trip knowing the kids were getting love in my absence!”

13. Amber K.
About: I have a passion for animals. I am sensitive to their needs and have trained my own dogs. I am also trained in calming techniques. I am available for short term or regular care during the summer. With advanced scheduling I can be available mornings, evenings, and weekends. Give me a try. I have a dog that doesn't like to walk, so I need my walking time in. My dog is friendly with other dogs but I don't have a fenced in yard. For open play time, I can go to the local dog park at Carvery Country Park Reserve or use your own backyard.
14. Grace M.
“Grace has watched our 1 year old cavapoo many times. We love that she spends quality time with our dog giving her much desired attention and she always leaves the place tidy. She is very flexible with requests for how we would expect our dog to be cared for and wants to make our dog comfortable. She has been a great dog sitter that we can always rely on!”
