About: With over 20 years of hands-on animal care experience, including veterinary tech training, rescue rehabilitation, special needs support, and behavioral management, I offer comprehensive, individualized care. I specialize in working with pets who need extra patience, medical oversight, and emotional understanding. Whether due to age, disability, or recovery needs. As a nursing student, my class schedule is balanced to allow ample time for the pets in my care. Your pet will never be left alone. My trusted partner and child are home full-time to ensure continuous supervision, love, and companionship. Your pet’s safety and comfort are my highest priority. I maintain a clean, secure, enrichment-focused environment designed to meet the needs of each individual pet. With specialized training in veterinary care, behavior management, and emergency response, I am fully equipped to handle special needs, post-surgical care, and customized medical support. When your pet is with me, they are treated like cherished family. Always loved, always safe.
About: I offer pet photography! I am a photographer and would love to get your dog professional photos while I am pet sitting. I’ve had animals my entire childhood. We have never been without a dog in our home. I am experienced in dog walking, over night stays, check ins, and belly rubs! I am currently not working so I will have all the time to care for your dogs any day! Weekdays or weekends I will be there for your pup! I will follow any directions you give me based on your dogs needs. I am very rule oriented so anything you have to do for your pup will be done by me!
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 am a dog person (goes without saying)! I travel for work but I am available on weekends and week day evenings as well as some mornings and some overnight stays too. I have 5 years experience of dog sitting locally, 5+ years of assisting my mother in law in her boarding kennel and once or twice a week I take my friends dog out for a walk! I love animals and going on walks/runs, playing fetch or I can just hang out with your dog if that;s what you need! I can work with whatever schedule you need and provide a fun and structured atmosphere to provide the best care for your pet! I can also provide care for more than just your dog- if you're a household with more than one fur-baby! My husband surprised me with a bengal kitten that we named Loki! He is mischievous but he does love other animals! Looking forward to learning more about your pet!
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.

“She is great!! Always on time to walk my dog, kind and caring. Even my fur baby gets excited when she comes over. Keep up the great work! 😊”

“Love the pics! ☺️ Thank you!”
Missy R.Star Sitter
“Missy was awesome in helping curtail bad behavior in my one dog just by walking them and playing with her. I definitely will be using her again.”
Madelyn N.
“Maddy has been one of the most passionate and caring pet sitters we have ever used. She understands that pets ARE family and treats them as such. We have two dogs, three cats, and used to have a bunny. She has followed every instruction left for her and is extremely conscientious, not only with our pets but with our home as well. We rely on her for house sitting, but also for drop-in and walks while we are working or traveling. She is a great communicator and sends pics and stories. She also brings to our immediate attention any issues. Both dogs require meds and she routinely administers the medications. I love, but hate to travel without our pets, and Maddy makes it so I can enjoy my time away and not have to worry so much about the family members I am leaving behind.”

“Jackie is one of the only people I would trust to watch my two dogs! She is very reliable and has a passion for animals! She goes above and beyond to give them the exercise and attention they need so they don’t even miss me! She administers two types of medications to my chihuahua to prevent seizures (pill and liquid form). I highly recommend Jackie for any of your pets’ needs!”
