Her abilities and experiences make her a natural and easy choice to take care of my pet. Elyssa is extremely attentive and intuitive to the needs of pets.

Not only that, I hear she visits and has volunteered at the local animal rescues”

14. Hannah S.
About: I have taken care of many animals. I grew up with a dog, several hamsters and a bird. I have watched turtles too! I started volunteering at a shelter and within 3 days, I adopted Nash, my cat that was part of our family for 16 years. He recently passed but lived a very long, lazy, happy life. I am currently a stay at home mom and available for dog walks, morning routines and care after 9:00 am most days. My weekends can be flexible if needed. I will try my best to keep you informed and stay to routine. I love updating with pictures! I can take dogs for walks, change water, feed, brush, and play. I'll try my best to keep things clean.
15. Hannah K.
“Hannah is one of most caring people I know that’s probably why she’s a nurse. She grew up always having a dog in her life and was always willing to help. She loves all animals and would make a great caregiver.”
16. Megan K.
“Megan took care of my cat, Mollie, while I went away on a work trip. I just needed someone to feed her and spend some quality time with her while I was gone and she went above and beyond! She sent me photo updates which I loved! There's no one else I trust my cat with.”
17. Katie S.
“Katie has grown up with dogs her entire life. She has watched my dog on multiple occasions and I trust her to do a great job. She would be an excellent pet sitter.”
18. Marc T.
“Marc was very attentive and caring toward my pup and I’d definitely book with him again!”
19. Makenzi M.
“MaKenzi’s is a lover of dogs and cats! She has a grown up in the country with dogs and cats around all the time. She spent time working at a boarding kennel throughout the years.”
20. Odessa T.
“First and foremost, Odessa is a fantastic person who has a genuine love for animals and is incredibly responsible and considerate. Odessa provides daily care for our two dogs and we couldn’t be more pleased. Additionally, it gives us extra comfort knowing that she has tremendous experience working at a small animal vet clinic, which makes her significantly more knowledgeable about pet care than the typical caregiver. We think she is the best, and hope to continue to have her care for our pets for years to come! !”
