“Missy was great with our 2 cats while we were away! I was worried about our older cat because she has recently been finicky about food but Missy kept me informed and up to date on everything! She was super responsive, sent photos and updates while I was gone and the cats were happy and the house looked great when we returned! I would recommend her to anyone looking for someone to care for their pets whether is be midday checks or while your away. Her animal care knowledge and attention to detail made me feel very comfortable while we were gone.”
“Communicative, cares for my fur family, and truly went above and beyond. My first time having a pet sitter I didn't already know before hand and would book Emily again in a heartbeat if I need the services.”
About: With over a decade of hands-on experience, I bring a deep understanding of dogs of all ages, breeds, and personalities. I’ve worked at a professional dog kennel and a grooming salon, where I gained valuable skills in handling dogs in both high-energy and sensitive environments. From daily care routines to recognizing behavior cues, I’ve developed a calm, confident approach that keeps pets comfortable and happy. I’ve also spent the past 10 years raising my own dog, giving me first-hand experience in everything from puppy training to senior care. Whether your pet needs structured attention or just a loving companion while you’re away, I provide reliable, knowledgeable, and heartfelt care. I’m currently not working, so my schedule is completely open. I’m able to give pets my full attention and be there whenever they need care. Your pet’s safety and comfort are always my top priorities. In my home or yours, I create a calm, pet-friendly environment where routines are respected and every animal feels secure. I keep a close eye on behavior and energy levels, making sure pets are always safe, happy, and stress-free. I treat each pet like my own, because I know how much they mean to you.
About: I’ve had and taken care of pets ever since I was young. I have many family, friends, and clients that have used me for many years to petsit, walk, and groom their pets. I am available to stop in the mornings before work to feed and let out your pet. In the afternoon after work I am available to feed, walk, and play with your pet and anything else you may need done. Your pet will always have lots of love and attention when you need me. Anything you need or want done I will make sure it’s done. There’s nothing better than not having to worry when you can’t be at home with your baby.
About: Growing up with and subsequently having my own pets, I understand the importance of having a trusted contact to call on when needed. My specialty lies with young, middle age and senior dogs. I love how each pup has their own personality and I do what I can to help them shine! Whether they are really active and need lots of attention or like to snuggle inside, I let them be themselves! I also have experience with cats and guinea pigs and am open to taking on more diverse pets. I am available for daily walks, overnights or day time activities for animals of all types! I am currently self-employed and make my own schedule, so I am able to fit in any kind of hours necessary! I am also available for overnights, extended stays and vacations. I am available to come to your own home to keep your pet(s) comfortable and safe within their spaces and routines. If extended overnight care is needed, we can explore the option of coming to my own home as well. I have a very large fenced in yard in a small, safe community.
About: I have grown up with dogs in the house and I just absolutely adore them.

“Jenna is amazing with our fur babies. She is so patient and kind. Maxx hates his nails clipped. But when he sees Jenna he is excited because she takes time to play with him and love him! When we need to be away for the night, I have peace of mind with Jenna caring for our babies. She is awesome! I 100% recommend Jenna!”
