“Teresa was great settling our dog and sent photos. He doesn’t like being left and gets anxious but seemed really settled with Teresa! We would love to have Teresa help out next time we visit!”

About: I have had multiple dogs for decades. Dogs just seem to love me. I guess it's because they can tell I love them so much. I'm really good at taking care of things for your dog. I love walking them and playing. I don't even mind picking up the poop. I'm currently working part-time as a house cleaner. So I have flexibility in my schedule to take care of fur babies. Evenings and weekends are almost always open. I treat all dogs with kindness and respect. I would want others to take care of my babies that way. I always double check the food and water. If there are extra things needed, I make sure to get those done as well.

About: I’ve raised rescues and puppies my whole life. I’ve worked with small to very large breed dogs. Can absolutely work with elderly dogs as well. I have a part time job with flexible hours and I would like to fill that time helping with dogs. I’m a very caring person and very patient with dogs of any kind. I will take care of your dog like my own. Frequent potty breaks with playtime and walks as needed. They will get all my attention while I’m working. Your dogs needs are my priority.

“Whitney is phenomenal! I’m so thankful and blessed to have found her! Being new to the area and no knowing anyone, I was sick with worry about leaving my fur-babies with a stranger. Whitney eased my mind from the moment she first messaged back. From the meet and greet all the way through, I never felt rushed or silly. Whitney sent pictures every day of my trip and kept me updated. When I got home, my babies were happy to see me, but it wasn’t even like I’d been gone a week. It was obvious that she cared and loved on them so well while I was away.”

About: Hi, I’m Ashley! With over 10 years of experience caring for pets, I’ve had the joy of working with dogs, cats, and everything in between. From playful puppies and curious kittens to senior pets needing a little extra TLC, I treat every animal like they’re my own. I understand that each pet has a unique personality and routine, and I’m committed to providing consistent, compassionate care tailored to their needs. Whether it’s long walks, feeding, medication, litter box cleaning, or just quality companionship, I make sure your pet feels safe, loved, and happy while you’re away. You can always count on me for clear communication, reliability, and plenty of photo updates. I know how much your pets mean to you—because mine mean the world to me too! I’m currently a stay at home, so my availability is pretty open! I’m happy to discuss dates and times privately. Please feel free to reach out! When I care for your pets in their home, I focus on creating a calm, safe, and comfortable environment that sticks as closely as possible to their regular routine. I follow all your instructions carefully—from feeding schedules and medication to favorite toys and walk routes—because I know the little details make a big difference.

About: I have taken care of all kinds of animals ever since I can remember. The most common animal being dogs. I have experienced everything from delivering puppies to nursing a bullet wound back to help. I would love to be your next fur-babies caregiver. I’m currently working part time. Therefore, I have a lot of time for your pets! My schedule will change weekly, but I am available most days. If something was to change I would always try to accommodate immediately. I have an open yard in the country. In my community everyone cares for each other’s pets. Even though it is open, I always use leashes for new arrivals. I have dogs who love to play and love to share their toys. I also have other housemates that LOVE animals!

About: Hello, my name is Micah Sheppard. Pictured above is my wife, Devin. I’m 26 years old and a Marine Corps veteran. We’ve been around animals our whole lives. From personal pets(dogs, cats, fish, etc.) to looking after and caring for other’s pets. I have some experience in training dogs in basic commands. I used to help train/look after k-9 German Shepherds for my dad’s police department during my high school years. Im currently a pet sitter/walker full time so my pet care availability will literally be any day and anytime you need a sitter, someone to check in on your babies, or someone to just take them on a walk and get some well needed exercise. We currently don’t offer care at our home but have no problem caring for your pet/pets at your home or any other location needed. I will have a list of available animal hospitals that are closest in need of an emergency if one was to arise. I would quickly but safely rush to the nearest hospital to get them the care they need before contacting the owner first. Emergency care comes first before notifying owners.

“Delayna was great with my two pups! They didn’t make it easy for her, even though it was only 2 nights. I think they were overly anxious and one got sick & one destroyed his bed 🤦🏼‍♀️ She handled both with grace. She sent lots of photos and updates which was very appreciated.”

About: I’ve taken care of Dogs since I was 14. In 2014-2017 I owned my own dog walking business and took care of 8 dogs in their homes a week. I enjoy helping others and hanging around fur babies! I am a mom of 2, a college student and I work part time. I commute back and forth often and have plenty of time to stop by and give your fur baby the attention it needs. My 12 year old pit bull is well taken care of, she is walked daily and has a large yard to play in. She loves being spoiled.

About: I have been caring for animals for as long as I can remember, growing up in a home where pets were always part of daily life. Over the years, I’ve developed a strong understanding of how to handle and care for many different types of animals. In addition to looking after my own pets, I have regularly helped neighbors and friends by caring for their animals as well. These experiences have taught me how to adapt to different personalities, needs, and routines. I am especially comfortable providing attentive, personalized care for older animals or those who require extra patience and support. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I plan my schedule around the needs of the animals I’m caring for. I make time each day for feeding, walks, playtime, and check-ins to ensure pets are happy and healthy. Since I’m already used to having animals in my home, providing consistent care and attention is something I prioritize. Throughout the week, I stay organized and flexible so I can accommodate different routines, including those for pets who need extra care or specific schedules. Caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy, so it’s an easy and rewarding part of my everyday life. I provide a safe, calm, and pet-friendly environment in my apartment by keeping the space clean, secure, and free of hazards. I follow each pet’s normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any specific care instructions. I make sure pets feel comfortable by giving them attention, patience, and a quiet place to rest. For clients’ homes, I respect their space while maintaining their pet’s usual environment to reduce stress and keep routines consistent. I am attentive to each pet’s individual needs, including administering medications if needed and ensuring they feel safe, loved, and well cared for at all times.

They are my children 🤣 i will love yours the same 🩵 I am currently in college full time so i’m at school 2 days a week and studying and playing with my fur babies the rest.
