We love Jenny so much! She’s so thoughtful and leaves nice notes about the cats, and she is the only sitter we have ever had that our little orange cat isn’t afraid of; she comes out and plays. Jenny is the best sitter I’ve ever hired.

I had to hire Emily last minute due to my kitty getting emergency surgery 2 days before I was ? to leave the state for a week. To say she was exceptional is an understatement!!! She came twice a day, gave her meds, checked her incision daily and monitored EVERYTHING. I am more than grateful, highly recommend and will definitely will use again!!!!!

About: I grew up with cats and dogs and have always lived animals. I pet sit for my friends and own 2 dogs. I also volunteer at a local animal shelter. I am familiar with all different temperaments and have trained my own reactive dog. I have been through basic training with both of my dogs as well. I work from home full time so I am available for walking and visits in the morning, midday, after work, and weekends. I have a flexible schedule. I am familiar with crating dogs and making sure front doors are closed and fences are secure. I will gain your animal’s trust and always make their safety my top priority.

Life is busy so we want to make sure things run smoothly for you and your precious babies! ❤️🐾 We have a large fenced in yard with lots of room to play. We love to be outside and going on walks so bringing a new furry friend with us on a little adventure would not only be exciting but would also be a great bonding time for us too!

About: I have loved animals my whole life and decided to become a fur mama 9 years ago. I have 2 dogs, 2 cats and 2 fish. I have no problem walking, bathing, feeding or crating your pets as I have a lot of experience with my own. I promise to love and care for your fur babies as I would my own🥰 I work from home, so I have free time to visit and play with your pups! My work schedule is flexible, so I can make myself available any day of the week. I do have a lot of experience with crate training from my own fur babies, so I can easily crate your pups if need be. I can take care of all of your pet care needs while you are away whether that be a bath or long walk.

About: Been caring for dogs since I was 5; Own a standard goldendoodle along with mini goldendoodle boys of my own. As well as a shih-tzu, so rounded out experience with dogs of varying sizes. Also have done house sitting for my relatives. I’m currently unemployed, when I do get a job/online schooling I’ll update my schedule. However, my genuine passions for animals make it less of a ‘job’ and more of a hobby :) For my own dogs, I ensure they’re walked at most every three hours. Access to water from when I wake up to a few hours before bed. ALWAYS leash my animals before I take them out. My mother is a dog trainer and taught me body language so I can tell if they’re uncomfortable or not.
