“Brooke did a wonderful job of taking care of my 2 Aussie's while gone! She arrived at the same time daily and sent pictures to keep me updated! I felt very confident in using her and fully intend to use her again in the future!”


“Wendy took care of my cats while I was away for two weeks! She did amazing and even kept in contact with me through the hurricane to let me know how the cats and the house was doing. Cats seemed happy and I definitely appreciated having Wendy to check in on them.”


About: I've had animals all my life. From cats to dogs to hedgehogs. It's always been important to me to show animals how much they're loved and appreciated because they have feelings too. I am 19 but didn't really start actually feeding a walking my animals until I was older to do it with my family. When I go to my friend's house I always love taking the dogs on walks, drives, or even just cuddling. I've experienced all animal ages from puppies/ kittens to senior dogs. I am currently on summer break from college. I will be a sophomore in the fall. I have a cat and family dog. My cat tipsy is who I take back to college with me. I wake up, feed him, play and cuddles then he usually naps and does his own thing. I clean his box and then feed him at dinner time. Same goes with my dog Lucy if my parents need me to give her, her medicine if they aren't there. They're both lazy and keep each other entertained so I have so much time throughout the day. I am very good with instructions and directions. if animal needs medicine I am great with that; my dog also takes medicine morning and night. If needing crating when I leave that's great too. I'm good with what ever you need my help for.

“Amanda was amazing and helped me out in a last-minute pinch. The dogs loved her and she provided detailed updates and top notch communication. Would definitely work with her again!”

“Hannah was amazing! We had to leave our 3 dogs for 4 1/2 days to go on job interviews out of state and she took such amazing care of them.
