My dog got sick while Hayley was taking them for a walk and she went out of her way not only to care for him but to clean up. Very appreciative!

About: I’ve taken care and been around cats and dogs since I was a child. I understand our fur babies require play time and so much love! I am currently actively applying to jobs as a social worker, and have a lot of free time throughout my days as I am staying home with my fur babies while I do so! I take my doggies on a walk, take treats with me and poop bags to ensure they get rewarded for being good babies and cleaning up after them. If we’re going to a park, I make sure they have toys, water and get their sniffs in!

Jamie is fantastic. I have a Dalmatian who does not like strangers and he came for a meet and greet and was really patient and knew exactly how to handle and react to her behavior. They were best pals in no time. I use him for 5x a week walks and he always sends pictures and notes about their trip. Very responsive and easy to work with. I highly recommend.

About: I’ve been around dogs my entire life, and they’ve always been more than pets—they’ve been family. Growing up as an only child, my dog was my best friend, and I took on the responsibility of crate and potty training him. I’ve cared for both small and large dogs, including a pit bull, and I understand their unique needs. I also have some experience with puppies and love learning about their specific care requirements. Whether it’s keeping up with their energy, helping with training, or providing plenty of affection, I’m ready to give your pet the love and attention they deserve. I’m currently between jobs, which gives me complete flexibility to care for your pet. Whether you need daytime, evening, or even last-minute walks or sitting, I’m fully available to meet your needs. I believe that caring for pets in their home environment is the best way to ensure they feel safe, secure, and comfortable. Being in a familiar space reduces stress and helps pets maintain their routine, which is essential for their well-being. I’m dedicated to creating a safe and nurturing environment wherever I care for them, treating every pet as if they were my own. Whether it's feeding, walking, playing, or simply providing companionship, I take the time to learn each pet’s needs and preferences. I understand how important it is for pets to feel loved and cared for while their owners are away.

About: I’ve had dogs my whole life and grew up caring for them daily. I’ve raised a puppy and currently have a well-trained dog of my own. I’m comfortable with dogs of all ages and personalities, from energetic puppies to calm seniors. I’m attentive, patient, and genuinely enjoy spending time with dogs, making sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for. I’m currently working part-time but am available most days during the week and can be flexible with scheduling as needed for pet care and walks. I prioritize safety and trust in every visit. I follow owner instructions closely, keep dogs on-leash during walks, avoid unsafe situations, and ensure pets are never left unattended. In a client’s home, I respect their space, maintain cleanliness, and make sure pets are comfortable, secure, and cared for the entire time.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was 12 years old. I can play with them, pick up after them, bathe them and make sure they’re happy and well fed. And I can take the dog on short or long walks and make sure they’re happy and safe. Also for house sitting I’ll make sure the house is clean and any messes the dog makes is cleaned up as well I’m a student at an online university, but I am taking a break from perusing my BS in forensic accounting. So I have plenty of time to watch your pets. I have two dogs that I take care of with my family. And they are well cared for and I play with them throughout the day and feed them when they need to be fed.

Michaela has been absolutely wonderful with Milo and Migi. They take a little time to warm up to new people, and she was so patient and gentle with them. It didn’t take long at all before they completely fell in love with her, now they’re constantly in her face and so excited to see her. She’s reliable, kind, and truly great with dogs. I couldn’t recommend her more.
