1. Samantha P.
“Samantha was so kind and attentive to my kitty and critters. She was also willing to look after my more exotic critters and handled their feeding schedules without any issues (of course I left pre-portioned food, but you'd be surprised at how hard that is to follow). My baby fish and birds were in great shape when I got back.”

“Thank you Lucy!”
3. Kalli S.
About: I’ve taken care of both cats and dogs ever since I could walk. We always had at least one animal growing up, and I would be the main caretaker. Whether that’s feeding, bathing, walking, etc. I’ve also played vet on my animals a couple of times (whether it’s a splinter in the paw, or a cut to the face) to get them back to their happiest selves! Your animal will be in excellent care. I have an incredibly inconsistent work schedule. Most days I’ll be gone by 3:30 and home by 8. My boyfriend gets off at 3:30. Just reach out! Most likely we’ll be available to watch your fur baby, and they won’t be home alone for long. I’m a quick thinker and learner. If anything needs to be done quick, I can do it. And if you need anything from me that will maximize comfort for your animal, I will do it willingly! I strive to put your animal’s safety first.

“Sydney provided exceptional care for my dog. She was reliable, responsible, and showed genuine love for dogs. I received regular updates and my dog was well-fed, exercised, and given lots of attention. I highly recommend Sydney for her outstanding service!”
5. Merrillee H.
About: I love animals, particularly dogs. I'm very patient and forgiving, pretty easy going and would take very good care of your animals. I have dogs myself, they’re well behaved and good around other dogs. I would make it so the owners would feel at ease to leave their dogs with me and know they’re being taken care of. I do have a full time job, but have days off together. The dogs would more than likely be able to roam in my home and not have to be kenneled, depending on house training issues. I love other animals like my own. I do have 2 cats that I rescued, but they stay outside for the most part. If I watch a dog that’s not cat friendly, they can stay downstairs for sure. I do have a full-time job, but my days off are usually in a row. I will mark off the days available. Other arrangements can be made if it’s a long term stay. I love all types of animals and throughly enjoy watching them. I treat them like my own. I stay active and enjoy being outdoors, your dig will have a blast.
6. Aubrey A.
“Aubrey watched our three cats for Thanksgiving and Christmas, and she was great! She sent us updates with pictures too let us know they were doing alright, and they seemed perfectly content when we got back home. One of our cats is quite picky with food, and Aubrey suggested a certain brand after noticing how much the cat loves gravy. She asked me if it was okay to try it out first, which I appreciated. She said she cleaned the bowl! She even dropped off a little box with kitty treats and toys as a Christmas gift, which was so sweet! We'll definitely be booking Aubrey again!”
7. Sabrina B.
“I've watched her train a wonderful pitbull named Rocky! Pitties can be well known to chew stuff up but she knew the strategy to deal with it and keep him happy. She had him chewing up cheap toys and playing fetch on a regular basis. Sabrina understands training a dog with training treats as reinforcement. Rocky was well trained with her help!”
8. Emily & Ben P.
“Emily might be the only person on the planet who may love animals more than I do. Ben and Emily’s two dogs and cat are family. I know that they’d treat any animal that enters their home like gold. There isn’t a better option out there for a loving home for your pet while you are away.”
9. Justice C.
“It was so comforting knowing our pets were safe, cared for and loved while we were away. I can't say enough good things about how well Justice took care of our pets.”
10. Kasha S.
“I’ve trusted Kasha with me pets many times. She’s loving and caring and will take care of your pets the way she would want hers to be taken care of. She’s responsible and dependable. My pets have always gone to her in complete health and have returned in complete health. I’ve never had any problems or complaints about her.”
11. Breanne H.
About: I’m a Veterinary Nurse and love animals, dogs especially! I have experience with giving dogs medications and have worked with lots of senior dogs, as well as dogs of any age. I have two dogs (a blue heeler and a lab) that love to run around and play. I’m available for boarding Friday through Sunday and drop in visits or dog walking on those days as well. I’m flexible with pick ups and if you need additional days. I have a big yard for dogs to play and run! I have a doggie door that they can go in and out of if they need, but I let my dogs out lots throughout the day for potty breaks.
12. Natasha C.
About: I’ve had animals ever since I was little. There’s always been a dog or cat in the house! Ive cared for multiple breeds, some with varying medical issues that need constant care. I absolutely love playing with animals. Giving them the attention they need, whether its with pets and tummy rubs, playing with them with their favorite toys or taking them for a walk, I am there! I can easily meet any requirements you or you fur baby might have, whether it be feeding, exercise, giving medications or just making sure they have some company.
