Temitope is a life saver. Last minute he came early to see my puppy because he got out and he was able to go and put him in his crate.

About: A strong commitment to treating every pet “like you do,” with a satisfaction-focused approach centered on each animal’s happiness, comfort, and well-being. Having 20+ years of professional pet care experience, giving owners confidence that their pets are in knowledgeable hands Paws N Claws Pet Service is a full-time part of my daily and weekly routine. Each day is organized around scheduled pet visits, feeding, walks, playtime, medication administration, and client updates. Throughout the week, I coordinate bookings, communicate with pet owners, and tailor care to each pet’s individual needs to ensure they receive reliable, personalized attention. I provide personalized, in-home care that keeps pets comfortable in their familiar environment and follows their normal routine as closely as possible. During each visit, I make sure they have fresh food and water, potty breaks or litter box cleaning, exercise, playtime, and plenty of affection and attention. If needed, I can administer medications according to the owner’s instructions and monitor each pet for any changes in behavior or health. I also send regular updates and photos so owners know their pets are happy and well cared for while they’re away. Every pet is treated with patience, kindness, and the same level of care I would give my own.

Joni is just amazing!! Our pup Milo loves Joni. She walks Milo 3 days a week and helps us out in a pinch. We get great updates from her. She’s helped Milo learn how to go on little bike runs with her and tires our little boy out when needed! She’s also so patient with Milo. We love her and recommend her for all your puppy needs :))))

Kethely is the absolute best. She cares so deeply about our girls and goes to every extent possible to make sure they’re taken care of and comfortable while we’re away. We’re very particular in our requests and she goes above and beyond to make sure we’re able to travel knowing that they’re in the best care. 10/10 experience.

About: Hello!! My name is Amelie, it nice to meet you! Animals have always held a special place in my heart and I truly believe every pet deserves to feel loved, safe, and happy even when their favorite humans are away. I know how much trust it takes to leave your pet with someone else, and I don't take that responsibility lightly. Every pet has their own unique personality, and I enjoy taking the time to get to know what makes them happiest. I'll follow their routine, give them lots of love and attention, and send regular photo updates so you can enjoy your time away knowing they're in good hands. I look forward to making new four-legged friends! I currently have my mornings free from 9-5 and afterwards I have my part time! I make sure I was enough wiggle room based on your pets needs and time variations so please don’t hesitate to ask any questions you may have I’m happy to clear up any doubts! I can take in cats in my home and depending on your cats needs I will gladly adjust! I will be home with them at all times so if they have a favorite game or simply enjoy chill company I will gladly do whatever makes them most comfortable! I also do drop ins! Just let me know what your pet routine is and I’ll take it from there. If it’s to feed or even let them out I’ll make sure they get what they need and send a farewell picture :D

About: Cant think of time where I haven’t been around a dog. Growing up there was always dogs in the house. It comes easy to me. For my 2 dogs it starts at 345am with their first walk before I head to the gym. There 2nd walk comes at 8am before I start work then again at 2pm for a quick lunch break and their last 2 walks come at 5 and 930pm before settling down for the night. In between all the walking they’ll get breakfast and dinner and some naps. Meet and greet is important along with getting to know the pets needs and routines. Along with likes and dislikes. Knowing what the pet parents wants and expects from visits or boarding.

About: I’ve cared for puppies and elderly dogs. I have comforted, cleaned and cared for dogs of all sizes. I loved taking my family dogs to the dog park or trail. I currently work part time so I can take your dog to their favorite place. Also care for your dog if they need company during a rainy or noisy day (fireworks). IYKYK I start by scanning the premises to take preventative measures for any hazards. I will also make sure the dog is within my sight at all times.

About: I’ve been pet sitting for over 2 years and truly love caring for animals. Along with my experience providing overnight care, I currently work as a veterinary assistant, where I care for both dogs and cats in a professional setting. Working in vet medicine has helped me become comfortable with pets of all ages, sizes, personalities, and needs, including senior pets and anxious animals. I pay close attention to each pet’s behavior and routine to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. I work full time, so I fit pet care around my work schedule. I’m available on weekends and some Thursdays, which I’ve listed in my availability. I make sure to plan ahead so I can be consistent and give pets proper care and attention when I’m with them. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their normal routine as closely as possible to help the pet feel comfortable and secure. I make sure they are fed on schedule, have fresh water, get walks and bathroom breaks, and receive plenty of attention and playtime. I also keep their environment clean and safe and follow any specific instructions provided by the owner.

Joni was a wonderful sitter for Tigger! She communicated well throughout the stay and took great care of him — including giving him his medication and gently comforting him when he was scared. The only minor hiccup was with the Rover card check-in timing (either forgetting or tapping a bit too early), but that’s a small thing. Overall, I’d highly recommend her and would definitely book again!

Kayla is the most amazing sitter! She takes care of my babies with utmost attention to detail, and timeliness. She takes really fun pics for the rover card, I love reading her messages and pictures on those cards and looking forward to viewing them every time. She even got into a car accident but still came to a morning session not much delayed! She only mentioned to us about the accident after we came back. Such kindhearted and passionate animal lover and carer! I would recommend Kayla to anyone in needs, and it’s super rare for me to leave a review. Thank you Kayla for everything you did for my babies in the last two weeks!
