Jessica was great! She took time out of her night to come visit Koda the night before she walked him and see how they did with each other! She was also a great walker and was willing to just hang out with him outside of his kennel and play with his toys! We will definitely be going back to Jessica again!

Brad was amazing with our dog! He was incredibly conscious and respectful about maintaining any routines and training we had already established with our dog and was great with our sometimes unruly boy! I was very impressed with how communicative he was and took very well composed and extremely cute photos to send us! I would absolutely recommend Brad!

About: I have always had pets growing up as a child and my love for them has grown into my adulthood even more. I have a passion for learning and understanding all different types of animals. I’m currently working part time so I have plenty of time to spend with your fur babies! I am available anytime after 10am every day! My apartment complex is very pet friendly! I also live near downtown so the fur babies and I can go on long or short beautiful walks!

Jenea has been a big help when I have to travel last minute to assist my elderly family members out of state. She is very patient with my dog Gizzy who has pretty bad anxiety and some health issues. She communicates with me regularly to let me know when Gizzy has been walked, fed and received medicine (when needed).

Tristan is an excellent dog sitter! I had a weimeraner and a German shorthair pointer. He not only took the dogs for long walks (which they needed) he was very conscientious about their feeding schedules and diets as well as their needs for lots of affection! I’d recommend Tristan anytime!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs and cats since I was 12. Friends and family have relied on me for pet sitting whenever they are out of town. I currently work full-time Hybrid. I work from home Mondays and Fridays. During this time I can provide care specific to your pet and their needs. I can provide potty breaks every 0-2 hours at least. I have a giant fully fenced back yard and 2 friendly dogs. One dog prefers more to watch the other dogs play while the other dog loves to be in all the action!

10 years of experience

About: I've had pets in my home or family's homes for the entirety of my life! However, my first pet was a cat who I adopted about 10 years ago. I provided a very loving home (everyone will tell you that he was one of the most spoiled cats they met) and he was a great companion! I've also had several years of experience with several different types/sizes of dogs. I frequently walked my family's and neighbor's dogs. I currently work from home so the opportunity for me to get away from my desk to walk a dog or check in on a pet is great! I currently work from home so my schedule is pretty flexible on a weekly basis! It's easy for me to jump offline to check in on a pet or walk a dog during the middle of my work day. At a client's home, I will always be respectful of your space and cleanliness of your home. I have experience with child care in families' homes and always picked up after myself.
