“Kelly is a wonderful dog and home sitter, whom I would enthusiastically hire again. We were gone for a week and my dog's life was virtually seamless. Kelly took him on walks and cared for him as her own and our dog is unphased. Kelly was kind, mature, knowledgeable and respectful, in all her interactions with all, our dog, our home, and ourselves. I could not have asked for more. While I was gone, she sent me many pictures, reinforcing that all was well at home and providing peace of mind. Again, I would not hesitate to hire her again. I can not give a better endorsement. Thank you, again, sweet Kelly!”

“We have a very cautious German shepherd mix who takes a long time to get used to new people. Dustin made us and our pup feel very comfortable and he was gentle and patient with him. We really appreciate the effort he made trying to warm up to him with treats and playtime! Dustin is very responsive and easy to work with, and he sent us many photos/videos and updates while we were away… Would definitely recommend him!”

19. Lupita G.
About: I grew up with dogs and throughout those years I have cultivated a deep understanding of animal behavior and needs. Whether it’s feeding or providing companionship, I approach each furry friend with patience and care. My special skills include recognizing subtle signs of distress or illness and creating a safe & stimulating environment. I’m currently a nursing student with flexible hours and dedicated study breaks. During breaks between classes or study sessions, I relish the opportunity to engage in enriching activities with my pets, whether it's a leisurely walk in the park or a stimulating play session at home. This structured approach ensures that my pets receive the attention and care they deserve while also allowing me to balance my academic commitments effectively. In both my own home and my clients' residences, I prioritize creating a safe and comfortable environment for pets, despite currently not having a yard or pets of my own. Utilizing my experience with crate training and use, I ensure that pets have designated spaces where they feel secure and relaxed. Whether it's setting up cozy beds or providing ample toys for enrichment, I tailor each setup to suit the specific needs of the pets in my care. Additionally, I maintain open communication with pet owners to understand their preferences and any special requirements, ensuring a seamless and enjoyable experience for both pets and their owners.
