I know how important it is to find someone you trust with your pets, and I treat every animal like family. Whether your pet needs cuddles, playtime, or a relaxing walk, I’m here to make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Hi! I’m a parent, registered nurse, and lifelong animal lover with two dogs and two cats of my own.

About: Hi! I'm Alexis. I have worked with all animals imaginable. I have worked professionally in animal care settings for the past eight years, from zookeeping to animal shelter work. I can care for any animal you have with expertise and compassion. I currently have a cat named Stewart, a pittie named Bandit and an umbrella cockatoo named Beekee, all rescue babies. I would love to meet your animal, too! Shane is my boyfriend who helps out sometimes when I need any extra hand. Together, the two of us can make sure your pets receive exceptional care and support! I have been an animal caretaker for the past eight years. For many years of my career, animal caretaking was a fundamental part of my job, so I am very used to incorporating it into my day. I have a cat, dog and a cockatoo. Interactions between guest's dogs and my dogs will be minimal, if non-existent. Care will take place at guest's house.

About: Growing up, we always had dogs. We had 3 miniature schnauzers Abbey, Lola, and Boujee along with our Old English Bulldog Kate (who also thinks she is a schnauzer). I currently have a sassy miniature schnauzer of my own, Margie, whom I love to do everything with. She is great around other animals. We would love to have your pups come stay with us! I am home and available during the summer, so my schedule is very open and flexible! Your pet is guaranteed to be loved and well taken care of! I have a fenced backyard, with lots of room for all the zoomies! My dog is super friendly and would love to meet new friends. Your dog will have a ball with us!

“Emma was amazing with Hopper this weekend! She was super reliable, kept me updated, and made sure he was well taken care of. I could tell he was happy and comfortable with her. Definitely recommend her to anyone needing a trustworthy and loving dog sitter!”


“So great and quick with communication!! Was able to help us out on quick notice and was great with our dogs and cat! Kept us updated with the best photos!”


“Stephanie is fantastic with my pets and they love her. She gives great info and wonderful and fun pictures at her check ins. I feel safe having her take care of my 2 pugs in my hone. Always a job well done.”


About: I have always had at least one dog at home and have owned all kinds of diferent breads and sizes. I currently own a Rottweiler/Anantolian Shephard mix & a Mountain Curr. I am available before and after my 9-5 office job on the week days to make sure your pet is given the essentials, but I am also available almost every weekend for longer visits for cuddles and play time! I promise to not be the annoying family member that gives your fur babies more treats than they can handle and definitley no people food unless told otherwise!

“Baylee was absolutely fantastic & went above and beyond with ours dogs care. The daily’s pictures and updates was great! Hope to have her again in the future!”


“Charlayda, or “Layda” recently took care of our 4 dogs—2 11-mo olds, who sleep in the garage, are trained to bathroom on puppy pads, and a 4 and 5 year old who are totally family members who sleep on beds, love the outdoors, and live to please people! We went away for a military graduation for 6 days, and were nervous to use a “service” but our friend could not stay here, so we took a leap of faith with Rover and Charlayda. When she came for a Meet and Greet 4 days before we were leaving, we immediately could tell we were with a lover of dogs, someone knowledable who all 4 dogs quickly “took to.” All of our fears about leaving went away as she asked questions and took the time to get to know specifics about all 4. While away, we received photos, videos, and texts as requested. When we returned home, all the dogs were calm, happy, sat for treats better than before!, and we could just tell that Layda had earned an A++++ in every way. We never thought we could leave all of them. We were proved wrong!! She’s superb. We’re now thinking about a weekend away, something we considered impossible before!! We’re so grateful!!”

Holly did a great job with my dogs! She offered to come over in advance for a meet and greet, and she clearly communicated throughout the visits. We will definitely reach out to Holly again next time we're out of town.

Raiko did such an amazing job with my cat Stitch, he was super attentive and caring and I came back to a super clean apartment! Thank you Raiko!!!

Always such a pleasure and relief when Shera stops by! She is very reliable. Such a pro! Thanks and hope to see you again soon!

Charlayda is simply fantastic. Our dog is a huge baby and he adores her. She makes him feel so safe when we are away. That is such a relief for us.

I can’t recommend Christy highly enough! She did a fantastic job taking care of my 2 cats, as always. She was able to easily give medications without issue, and she provided detailed updates and pictures each day.

Emily did an amazing job taking care of our precious cat Biscuit while we were on vacation. She providing us updates twice daily along with pictures which in itself was a treat. Highly recommended, 5 Stars :)

She is super good with my chunky little man! Normally my pj is a shy boy but with her he feels so loved(: I’m glad to have Grace as a not only loving cat sitter but a genuine pet lover.

Sandra was a huge help for us when we went out of town. Our dogs were well taken care of and we super appreciate it!!
