“Kate was so great! She really went above and beyond to make sure I was comfortable before leaving my baby to her. It shows how much she really cares about your dog. She had no problem handling my huge Great Dane and easing his worries while I was away. I would not hesitate to rebook her again!”
“Kathleen has been absolutely wonderful! I have a new dog with some increased needs and she has been so patient and flexible with her. She always provides thorough updates with lots of pictures which puts me at ease while I'm at work during the day. She happily takes on any requests I have and I feel very confident leaving my dog in her care! I can tell she really cares about the pets she is watching.”
About: Hello there! My name is Sammy and I have been around animals all of my life and they have inspired me in so many different ways. I have been managing doggy daycare/boarding facilities for a little over 3 years now so I guess you can say pet care is my specialty! I am dog and cat CPR certified, certified through the DHA (dog handler academy),I know how to give injections, and my knowledge on dog behavior is quite extensive. I have decided to go back to school as well which is why my schedule is so open. Currently I own a 2 year old Golden Retriever as well as the cutest cat ever that are both my world. I hope you decide to let me into your pets heart as I treat every pet like my own. ~Wags & Wiggles, Sammy🐾 I am going back to school which means I have a very open schedule. I am also pretty flexible with times and last minute bookings. When it comes to a clients home,I always like for us to meet before I start my services so everyone feels more comfortable. I will also provide pictures for my clients of your fur baby & I having a good time!
“I cannot recommend Sierra highly enough! My dog, Mickey, ran down the hall to meet her on her second visit. He’s never done that. She obviously had Mickey’s seal of approval immediately. Sierra is conscientious, very communicative, and extremely kind. She has my complete trust and respect, because she treats Mickey as if he were her own. To me that is the absolute best quality in a dog walker! Choosing Sierra as your dog walker is the absolute correct decision! Having Sierra walk your dog will keep you worry free and happy while your pup gets good exercise, has fun and is treated like family 😃”
About: Hi! I have taken care of pets from different backgrounds and families and am willing to adjust and accommodate to any environment that is needed for the pet I currently work a full time job in Short Pump and commute home to the city. I am able to work around pet parents schedules if given enough notice in advance, and I appreciate those willing to work with my own schedule as well. No access to a yard for pups, and I do not have the space to accommodate for pups, therefore for boarding purposes I can only care for cats. I have an extra litter box, toys, and treats for your pet. Please feel free to bring your pets own food and their personal toys if necessary.
About: My name is Mary Catherine, also known as Katie. I am a nationally certified and licensed Veterinary Technician. I have been involved in veterinary medicine and shelter work since 2005. I currently have 3 cats of my own, and have had dogs and cats and various other animals all my life. I know how very important it is to find someone you trust to care for your babies while out of town or in need of assistance. I would love to be that person to care for your beloved family member when you need someone to walk them, care for them while you are out of town, or stop in to give medications and TLC! I am not only a dog lover, but a self proclaimed cat lady and would love to care for your feline friends as well!
About: I have cared for old dogs and young dogs as well as cats living with FIV. I enjoy walks and playing games with the pets. I am an avid runner and can happily fit runs, walks, and playtime into my routine. I also work from home which allows more flexibility. I will fit my care to your needs. Some pets require different types of care so I will adjust my care based off your pets needs.
“Ashley is very sweet and communicative, she follows directions. she also took great care of my baby and look forward to another walk soon! Thank you so much for taking care of him!”
About: I have a Great Dane who is sensitive, so I know how to be patient with animals. I also have the ability to handle XL sized dogs. I have also fostered dogs before and have always had an animal in my life. I'm currently focusing on just working for Rover so my schedule is wide open for all your dog and cat needs! The passion for animals is my routine! I have a Great Dane and a cat who have free roam in my apartment. I also have a giant crate if needed. I take my dog out multiple times and day and provide exercise to ensure optimum health.
“Hollie is the best! He was so accommodating when I called last minute to walk my Taterbug (especially since he is not easy to walk). Hollie just does a great job all around!”
