1. Melissa R.
“Melissa is great and really helped me out on the fly when something came up with my scheduled sitter. It's obvious that she loves animals and does an awesome job taking care of them!”
2. Cher D.
“Cher was a lifesaver in taking care of our cat, Princess over the holidays. She was quick to respond, accommodating, honest and kind. As stressful as it is for pet owners to leave their fur babies at home while on vacation, it is even more stressful on our pets. Cher's daily visit helped diminish that stress on our cat and us! We happily could tell that Princess was well taken care of when we returned home and would not hesitate to have Cher take care of our little lady again. Thank you, Cher!”

14. Genesis L.
“I have had Genesis watch my 2 year old Labrador Retriever since he was a puppy. She has even stayed the whole weekend with him before and was in charge of feeding him and taking him on walks. She always treats him like her own and is very responsible while watching him. I also had her practice some training with him, which she did great with! I highly recommend having Genesis help take care of your pet.”
15. Isaac S.
“Isaac did really well on our first in-home visit with our German Shepherd, Luna. For a dog that has massive separation anxiety, she was very calm when we got home. I think having Isaac come to the house to let her out and feed her, instead of taking her somewhere to be taken care of, made a big difference. I would not hesitate to ask Isaac to take care of Luna again.”
16. Ella B.
About: I have taken care of cats my entire life at my own home & my grandma’s home. I have also dog sat over weekends many times at peoples houses. I currently only have one class M/W and two classes T/TH, so I have a lot of free time in my hands to make sure your pet is getting the attention and love they deserve! We have a fairly large backyard area that could be great for going potty, and an unused fenced in soccer field across the street for more free play time!
17. Maya B.
“Maya was responsive and reliable when watching my 2 goldendoodles and cat during a 5 day vacation. I received text updates and pictures throughout the week putting my mind at ease. I have another vacation planned and will be rebooking with maya!”
18. Claire K.
About: I have worked in a kennel for two years. It has given me valuable skills on how to work with dogs and understand them better. I am a student athlete and a double major so I am a little busy! However I’ll always be able to make time for pets. I will most likely be available middle of the day. It will most likely range from each pet. Each animal needs a different type of love. I would ask about your dog and want to know what they like and don’t like, so I can make sure they are happy.
19. hannah h.
About: I have experience with special diets and elderly dogs, including diabetic dogs in need of insulin shots. Also used to dogs of all size big and small! I love taking care of all types of pets, I have a dog of my own, whom I make sure to spoil and give plenty of attention all the time. Making sure he is happy and healthy is something I do on a daily basis. I love interacting with pets, this includes playing and petting them, however if a dog shows any signs of being uncomfortable with that type of attention I make sure to accommodate, to make sure that the dog is comfortable.
20. Schyler M.
“Schyler is amazing with animals, took wonderful care of my Cali! She spoiled my dog to great extents, better that she has a fenced in yard! Would highly recommend!”
