About: Hi! My (preferred) name is Daisy & I've been taking care of dogs ever since we adopted my very first canine best friend in 2011! Friends and family have trusted me to take care of their fur babies and I've been handling & working with dogs almost every day for almost two years as a doggy daycare attendant, kennel staff, special pup advisor, and group coordinator. I love taking them on walks and practicing sits, stays, downs, give paws, etc... I absolutely love all animals and promise to take care of your babies as if they were my own! I currently work part-time so I'll have plenty of time to check in on & spend with your pets! I'm available Saturdays before 12pm, Sundays all day, & most holidays before 3pm. Weekday hours vary and I will always be super transparent about my availability! Your pets' safety is important to me so please feel free to leave detailed instructions and I will follow them to a T. I will also keep consistent contact with you, providing (p)updates with photos! I can crate your dog(s) if needed as well. I'm also Red Cross animal first aid certified. I've handled several scuffles and am able to remain calm in any situation that may arise. Your pet will always be safe with me!
“This was our first experience leaving our three pups with a sitter while going on vacation. From our first meet and greet we knew Jessica would be a great fit for our crew. While we missed them while we were gone, we had no worries that they were being well cared for. Jessica sent messages to let us know how each visit went as well as a few photos from the visit. She did notify of some small issues (skin irritations,etc) and gave updates as needed. Jessica treated our pups as if they were her own and they loved her in return. She was also very respectful of our house and did extra little things that were greatly appreciated (rolling trash can up to garage and bringing in mail). We will be booking Jessica again to take care of our dogs in the future!”
“Mary is wonderful! My pup was so happy to meet her and she handled him perfectly (he’s a bit of a tank and can knock you down if you’re not paying attention) Mary was perfectly comfortable with him and I left feeling assured my furry best friend was in good hands.”
“Bethany was very professional, prompt and loving to my pups while we were away for Easter! She sent updates and pictures for each visit, which gave me such peace of mind, knowing they were in very good hands!”
“We booked Madison for drop in visits with our dog Milo. Madison was responsible and wonderful with Milo! Her love for animals certainly shines through her personality! Thank you Madison!”
About: Not only someone you can rely on, but someone you can trust to treat your pets like their own. I am comfortable working with all ages and breeds! My hours as an OTF coach are pretty flexible, so I have many breaks throughout the day where I am able to tend to your pets :) I am very trustworthy, loyal and honest. I have significant previous work experience with nannying and cleaning residential homes, so I am familiar and comfortable entering your home. I promise that I will treat your property with respect.
“Christine was phenomenal taking care of our Reggie. He loved her! She spent a lot of time with him several times a day. I could not be more pleased with her care! She truly went above and beyond! 10 stars!”
About: My animals are my children and they are very spoiled, but they deserve every bit of it. I don’t see having animals as a responsibility, I consider it a privilege.

I can either come to your home for pet care, or your dog can come here and get a great country walk on their leash =)

It would be great for weekly but also here and there works too! Let me know what your looking for hopefully we can make it work!

I carry treats to encourage trust and respect boundaries.
“Christina was communicative and more than willing to work with our kitties! Pictures and videos were sent to show me how our cats were doing, and she was respectful of our (and their) boundaries. She was also flexible with key pickup and return (which was very appreciated with my schedule). I would absolutely recommend her for caring for your fur babies.”

About: My family has had dogs my whole life of different types and sizes, now I raise a mini Bernedoodle. I have taken multiple puppy training courses which I could apply to any age dog. I work in law enforcement. My schedule is flexible due to my job and I will update my availability ASAP according to my work schedule. I spoil my dog and will do the same for any that come into my home. No human food is my big rule. My Mini-Bernedoodle is just over one year now and raising her has been very rewarding. I have taken multiple training courses on training young dogs but could apply these concepts to any age dog. I have a good size yard which I am able to walk my dog around when she goes to the bathroom. My yard is 3/4 fenced in and my neighbor doesn’t have any pets.

Ashtin R.
“Ashtin (Daisy) has cared for my dog for the last two years. I very quickly learned what a nurturing, genuine, attentive, competent & dependable caregiver she is. She is not only a pet lover, but very knowledgeable as well. Not only do I feel 100% at ease when my dog is with her, but my dog adores her just as much! Honestly, she has set the bar so high that I can’t say enough good things about her. It feels so reassuring to have someone like Ashtin who I can wholeheartedly trust with my dog. Thank you for everything!”
