“Glen has been great to work with and my Sasha just loves him. She will lay by the door and wait for her buddy. He has been walking her daily for over a year now, never had a schedule conflict or a "No show", and if I had to adjust something I can almost always expect the return text to read "Ok sounds good". He is so easy to work with, very pleased with the service!”


“Katelyn was truly amazing for the month of May for us. Very flexible & responsive. I have a crazy puppy who has thrown up & walked in poop & she’s taken care of him like Gus was hers. I plan to use her again when we are back from our honeymoon!!!!!”


“Regan was a life saver, my walker canceled at the last minute and she was able to cover. Very quick response, good communication and very accommodating. I will definitely use her again for walks.”


About: I've been around dogs my entire life and have always had a natural connection with animals. As the go-to pet sitter in my family, I've cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities—whether it's for a weekend away or a last-minute day trip. In addition to providing loving, reliable care, I can also assist with basic training and reinforcement of good habits. Your pets will be safe, happy, and well cared for—just like family. As a recent college graduate with a degree in teaching, I currently have a very open and flexible schedule. I'm available to care for your pets any day of the week—whether it's a weekday, weekend, or even a last-minute need. My flexible availability means I can easily accommodate daily walks, extended stays, or drop-in visits, all tailored to what works best for you and your pet. Your pet’s safety and well-being are my top priorities. By caring for them in their own home, they’ll stay in a familiar, stress-free environment surrounded by their favorite toys, routines, and comforts. I’m available as often as needed, ensuring they get consistent care and attention while you’re away. You can relax knowing your pet is safe, comfortable, and in caring hands.

About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was little, house sitting for neighbors when I was in high school. I worked at a vet clinic that offers doggy daycare and boarding. I know how to administer medication to dogs of all ages and temperaments. I can navigate nervousness in your pup, and help them feel comfortable when you aren’t home. I also have two dogs of my own, both high energy breeds, so I understand the need to exercise your beloved pets and make sure they have proper mental and physical stimulation. Your dog or cat deserves the love you give them everyday, even when you’re away from home; and I intend to give them that same love when I take care of them. I work fully remotely so I am available to assist almost any day of the week and really anytime, with a preference for middays and evenings. Even if I don’t have my availability listed for that day, please reach out and I will always try my best to accommodate! For my own dog, I have him crate trained so he don’t get into anything dangerous while I am gone. As for others animals I make sure they have constant access to fresh water, that their schedule is met, meaning consistent potty breaks, feedings ie. (breakfast, lunch, dinner) and playtimes. Finley is leash reactive, so having experience in that would be beneficial if your pup isn’t as easy of a walker if you’d like them to be.

“Kara is reliable, caring, and wonderful with our puppy. We hired her to walk our dog weekly and will definitely rehire for the same service and dog sitting in the future.”


About: I’ve worked at quite a few places with dogs! I’ve grown up with dogs and worked with them since I was 16. I treat every dog as if they were my own. I’m incredibly patient, caring, and nurturing. I definitely have a passion for dogs. As of right now, I’m not working. I’m starting CMA classes in September so right now I’m pretty open! Monday-Friday, I can do some Saturdays and Sundays! I’m a momma of 3 fur babies. I have a fenced in yard for them to run around in. However, I do have a dog who doesn’t like other dogs except the ones he lives with so I cannot keep dogs at my house which is why I provide dog walks/ Drop-In Visits !

About: Hi there, fellow pet lovers! I’m Hayley — a lifelong animal enthusiast and proud pet parent. I share my home with three wonderful dogs (two of whom are certified therapy dogs who love visiting nursing homes, hospitals, and schools) and two sweet rescue cats who bring so much joy to our family. Caring for animals is truly my passion. I understand how important it is to feel confident and comfortable when leaving your pets in someone else’s care. That’s why I treat every pet I care for like one of my own — with love, patience, and plenty of attention. You can rest easy knowing your furry family members are safe, happy, and in good hands. I’m flexible and happy to accommodate your pet’s unique needs and routines. Let’s connect! I look forward to meeting you and your furbabies and helping make your time away worry-free. Pet care is a big part of my everyday life! As a proud pet parent to three dogs and two rescue cats, caring for animals is part of my daily routine — from early morning walks and playtime to evening snuggles and feeding. I naturally build pet care into my mornings, afternoons, evenings, and weekends, which makes it easy for me to provide reliable care for other families’ pets, too. Spending time with animals is something I truly enjoy, so making room in my schedule to care for your pets never feels like a chore — it’s something I look forward to! I’m happy to accommodate your pet’s specific schedule and needs to make sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved while you’re away. I care for pets as if they were my own — with love, attention, and respect for their unique personalities and needs. I take time to understand each pet’s routine, preferences, and any special instructions you provide to make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and happy while you’re away. Whether it’s feeding, walking, playtime, or quiet snuggles, I make sure your pets get plenty of attention and care. I’m also mindful of their environment, keeping things clean, safe, and as close to their normal routine as possible to reduce any stress. Communication is important to me, so I provide regular updates, photos, and messages so you always know how your furbabies are doing. My goal is to give you peace of mind and make sure your pets are well-cared for, loved, and happy.

About: I’ve had various animals all my life. Hamsters, Guinea pigs, tarantulas, dogs, cats. However, none have compared to my dog, Abby. I’ve raised my dog since she was a puppy, and she is my best friend. After many years of raising, I can almost sense what a dog is feeling through their body language and behavior. Also, I do can do cats as well. I currently work weekends, however I should be available during the week for the most part. I also might have some weekends off, so I can still be flexible. While I am very caring for dogs, I do understand that there are rules for dogs in other peoples homes that are to be followed. Also, I understand that some dogs need certain attention in areas, which is very important to me and the dog. This goes the same for cats as well.
