Zoe did a wonderful job caring for my foster. She showed up on time and communicated with me throughout the day and even sent pictures putting my mind at ease. I felt very secure knowing my foster was being well cared for! I will definitely be using Zoe again!

I was very nervous about leaving my pets. Juliana was wonderful with them. From the meet and greet until I returned from my trip I had no worries. She sent me pictures everyday and I could see they were happy and loving her! I'd definitely have her care for my pets again!

About: I have had dogs my whole life and I have had a cat for the last 7 years. I am very good with animals and I love them very much. I have also babysat my own dogs when my parents go away as well as my aunts cats, and my neighbors dogs and cats. Since I've had many animals in my life, I know how to take care of them and I know how to tell what they need. I am in college but have many hours throughout the days that I am available and I am also free most nights (though I would need notice incase I make plans with friends) I am available all day on Mondays, available from 11-2 and after 5:30 on Tuesdays and Thursdays and available all day besides 2-4 on Wednesdays and Fridays. I am also available all day on weekends I would just need to know in advance due to plans. I will offer your pet lots of love and will do whatever is best for your pet! I can easily crate your dog and I love long walks and would be happy to go on one with your pet.

About: I have taken care of friend’s dogs for the past year! This has included cleaning up after them, walking and feeding them. I find joy in being able to look after and care for any dogs that might be in need of a friend! I am currently a college student that is starting Spring season! I am good for early mornings as well as visits during the day and night! I care for pets by maintaining their regular routines, including feeding, walks or potty breaks, playtime, and lots of attention. I follow all care instructions closely, prioritize safety, and provide updates with photos so owners feel confident their pets are in good hands.

About: I've been around dogs and cats since an early age, and quickly establish rapport with them. I've always taken good care of my pets, and will take good care of yours. I specialize in hour long visits, giving your dog time to exercise and relax. I can take them to the rec fields, to the river, or on hikes. I work remotely, and can fit pet care in when needed. I live near Old Town and can quickly reach properties in the surrounding area. Caring for an animal goes beyond filling a bowl or taking a walk. That's why I enjoy building rapport with animals, so they feel happy and safe.

About: I’ve taken care of all dogs and cats for most of my life. I used to work at an animal shelter and absolutely adored it! I can do anything and everything you would like me to do! I can provide overnights, drop in’s, and dog walking throughout the day. I work 1pm-11pm Wed-Sat every week. I could come for overnights after I get off. I would much rather do a visit or overnight at your own home if that is any way possible as it would make the dog much more comfortable.

Mary was wonderful! She took care of Pippa for a week! I will definitely be asking her back. She kept me posted with pictures and videos. When the power flickered and caused the AC to go out, she tried troubleshooting, and then dealt with the electrician and HVAC tech. I felt very good wirh Mary yaking care of that and Pippa too!
