About: - My apartment receives monthly flea treatment, but all pets should still be on flea prevention medication before to come to my house . - All pets should be fully vaccinated - Usually, I send pictures/videos ones, around 8-8:30 pm and a little update if you request it. I understand that leave you pet with a strangers can be very anxious , but I assure you , your pet has place to sleep, a lot of attention, a lot of play time, walks and love. ☺️ - I am not accept dogs with any type of aggression: dog, cat or kids. - I’m not accept dogs without meet and greet . - If you prefer that I care exclusively for your pet during the entire stay, please note that the rate will be double my regular fee. I have been taking care of animals since early childhood. I always brought home homeless animals. My parents and I treated and helped abandoned babies recover. Love for animals is in my blood. my family had cats, dogs, birds, squirrels. I know how to give pills, how important it is to play and walk the dogs a lot, how important it is to change the litter box often. I am very empathic and always feel sorry for our smaller brothers. I’m stay home mom. I have plenty of time to care about pets while my son at school . After school usually we walk all day and take dogs with us. walking the dog will be a minimum of 30 minutes.i had husky before and we walk together at least an hour. Dogs with high energy is not a problem for me😄. If your dog likes to play with balls, I will be glad to play with him/her. if your pet takes pills - no problem! I'll take care of that too! I provide brush hair (fur) , night walks, gentle care.

About: From fostering dogs with heartworm and post-surgery needs to building trust with the most timid rescues, I’ve cared for dogs in all kinds of situations. My experience goes beyond the basics—I understand how to read body language, support anxious pups, and manage specialized routines with patience and care. I hold a PhD in Nutrition, and while my focus has been on human health, I bring that same passion and knowledge to giving animals the healthy, happy lives they deserve. I’m attentive, experienced, and deeply committed to the well-being of every dog in my care. I can’t replace you in your dog’s life, but I can give you both the peace of mind you deserve while you're apart--whether it be for days at a time or just a short walk. I work mostly remotely, which allows me to be present and attentive throughout the day. My own dog gets three walks a day—totaling about 90 minutes—and we rarely miss one. I’m happy to include your dog in those walks or adjust the schedule based on their energy level and routine. Because I’m home most of the time, I can offer a calm, consistent environment and plenty of attention. I’m flexible and always aim to cater to each dog’s individual needs—whether that means playtime, quiet companionship, or extra potty breaks. In my home, pets are treated like family—often even better than the humans! 😄 I live in a spacious two-bedroom apartment, so there’s plenty of room for dogs to feel comfortable and move around freely. Dogs are always welcome on the bed and couches, and I keep fresh water available in every room to make sure they stay hydrated and happy. Whether it’s in my home or yours, I aim to create a calm, cozy environment where each dog feels safe, loved, and completely at ease. I follow any routines or preferences you provide and always pay close attention to each dog’s comfort and well-being.

About: Hey there, my name is Holly and I love working with dogs. I have spent the last 10 plus years working with dogs at a local doggie day care facility. While working there I obtained a lot of knowledge and eventually earned a position as a supervisor and managed new hires on how to work dog day care yards. During my time I gained a lot of valuable insight on dog behavior while working in the dog day care yard. I also have owned as many as three dogs at one time. I have hosted several of my friend's dogs for overnight stays along with my own dogs and I would just love the opportunity to give them the best care and love a dog could desire. I have a passion for fur babies and treat them as if they are my own. I have a special relationship with my veterinarian and I have experience in giving dog medication if necessary. I am conveniently located to my personal veterinarian and other veterinarians as well as a emergency vet in the event your fur baby suddenly becomes ill. Having owned numerous dogs over my lifetime I am keenly aware of what it takes to attend to senior dogs. I have a lot of green space in my neighborhood for a comfortable walk on a leash and potty breaks. I am currently retired and available to baby sit your fur baby anytime including weekdays/nights, weekends, and holidays. I am flexible and willing to accommodate your fur baby's needs along side my own fur baby, Pinkie. I have a lot of green space in my neighborhood for a comfortable walk on a leash and potty breaks along with my fur baby, Pinkie for company and companionship. I am all about creature comforts and whatever your baby is used to for the best experience. Your baby is more than welcome to lay on the couch, sleep in my bed or can be crated if that is what they enjoy the most. I also offer Dog TV for viewing pleasure. You can expect lot's of cuddle time, potty breaks, walks, treats and toys to play with but most of all LOVE. I also have a habit of sending video's and pictures of your baby while you are away.

“Wonderful interaction with Aimee. She was incredibly nice and easy to communicate with. Our pup had a great time hanging with her. She sent us pics and updates. We'll definitely use Aimee's services again!”

About: I have always had dogs as pets since I was 3 years old! I had 4 growing up and have always had at least two at a time! I have a passion for caring for pets and believe all pets should be treated like our family! I do have some experience in dog first aid and will always care for your pup as my own!

I will do everything in my power to make sure your pet is well taken care of and happy! I use Rover for my own pups when I go out of town, so I know how scary it can be to leave your pet with someone new! I will send you photos and videos throughout your stay, and you can even facetime your pet if you’d like! Whatever I can do to make your time more peaceful, please let me know 😊

About: Hello! My name is Wes, and I love dogs. All kinds of dogs, really. I can handle large, strong dogs without problem as long as me and the dog are safe.

I love animals, and I realize that maintaining the consistency of your routines and following your instructions is very important. I will treat your home and your pets with respect!

“Flash had a great day in Doggie Daycare with Emily and her family! They played with him and took him for a walk. They were very accommodating in setting times for Flash and me to meet them and for dropping him off and picking him up. They followed the feeding instructions and made room for his dog bed and toys in their home. I really liked it that they lived in a beautiful neighborhood with sidewalks and that they had a nice fenced in back yard. You can tell they love dogs and it made me happy that Flash was comfortable with them. I recommend them as dog sitters and plan to book with them again!”
