About: I've cared for dogs, birds, fish, and reptiles for over 25 years. Each pet is treated like family with extra attention on each individual needs and personality. Recent retirement allows me to be available full time for your fur babies. Maintained strict cleanliness standards for feeding areas, pet relief areas, tanks, cages, bedding. Comfortable responding to minor health issues and emergencies. Available for morning, afternoon, and evening visits - 7 days a week. Flexible schedule to accommodate your pet's routine. Open for holiday and weekend bookings. Offering overnight stays and extended care upon request. Pets are cared for daily, a fenced in yard/deck allows for a outdoor playtime. Attention to special diatery needs of each pet. We match their energy! Pets are not left alone. Guaranteed play time and belly rubs are a must. Emergency contacts and vet info are kept on hand for quick response. I follow all home-specific instructions, no matter how small. I provide regular updates, photos, and messages during each visit.

About: I’ve taken care of lots of pets over the years. I enjoy being around animals and showing them love because they do the same for us! I have a genuine love for taking care of things if I can help it and I’m going to school to even become a nurse. I also started a house plant hobby. Taking care of things is just in my blood. I’m available more in the evenings . My schedule is flexible but inconsistent because I’m part time at my jobs but we can discuss availability if you book me to take care of your pet(s)! I have a fenced in back yard and just one cat. I’m able to keep them separated if needed. I also have my own home and it’s a smoke free one! I’m very clean and clean my home daily. I let my cat on the couches so yours will be allowed the same if they are not dirty of course.

About: What sets me apart from other sitters is that I will treat your dog or cat as part of my family. They will be trained through playing which is fun because then you will learn how they are and their behaviors. I am currently not working so this will give me an opportunity to take care of your pet the right way and get better aquainted of how they are. I will be able to take your pet for walks without interfernce of any kind. If any emergency happens I will let you know and quickly take them to the vet or a vet provided by you. For me to take care of your pet correctly I would like to know what protocols I have to follow so that I can make your pet comfortable and happy and that you know your pet is safe and sound with me, whether it be in my home or your home which ever one makes you comfortable.

“Nate took good care of my 2 senior cats while I was away on vacation. He did daily drop in visits, litter box, fed/watered, gave 1 daily medication, and spent time with them. He also sent pics and gave me updates. My house was clean when I got home. Nate was prompt to respond on the site, we met in advance at a public eatery to get to know each other, and he came to my house after to meet my cats and get a basic run down on their needs. He was very pleasant, easy to talk to, and my cats took an instant liking to him. I would highly recommend him to others and will hire him again in the future! It's so hard to find good, reliable yet reasonable pet care. Thank you so much Nate!!!”


“Worked with me to help rehab one dog with leg i jury. She was able to walk healthy dog to be sure his fitness didn’t slide as his sister heals. Truly wonderful & responsive to our dogs.”


“Logan is always wonderful and reliable. I had him meet my super anxious doberman foster dog and he was very patient.”


“Thank You for all your help and care with Leilah. My mom said you were attentive and kind to her. Leilah is a very sweet and can be anxious when we’re gone but she was very happy in our absence because of you. Thank You again.!”

About: Hi, Everyone! My name is Cara. Thank you for visiting my page. My strong admiration for animals has only grown more with the more animals I meet and as a result, it brings me genuine happiness. It is a rewarding experience to be able to take care of any animal that needs it while their owner is away. Since starting Rover in August 21’, I’ve had 10+ repeat clients and have established great friendships with families/people in the community as a result. I have a M-F teaching position 8am-4pm. A half hour lunch long lunch where I can leave to care for your furries in the middle of the day depending on the distance. Dogs will be crated when I’m not home. A little history: I grew up with a miniature schnauzer (Zoie) whom towards the end of her life, needed constant supervision and was administered medicine 3x/ day, grooming/washing daily. I was always there to comfort her until the end of her life and spoiled her beyond belief. Myself and my family provided care to my mini schnauzer for over 12 years. As a child, I never had a dog sitter to send updates, pictures/videos for my sweet Zoie when my family would travel, so I strongly understand the importance of quick and reliable communication/sending updates while you’re away. Experience - administering medicine/injections - cats, big dogs, small dogs, senior animals, special needs pets, pigs, cows, chickens. -exercise/run with your pet -hospice/end of life care (Repositioning every hour, hand feeding, massages, cooking packs, frozen bone broth snacks on warmer days, the list goes on) Pets and animals deserve to be spoiled but most importantly, they deserve to be loved. I have a white fur baby (Minnie). Shes a loyal, sweet and well behaved dog, I’m so lucky and thankful for her every day as she brings me so much happiness. She stays at home with her other best friend, my significant other while I’m away. If you think I’d be a good fit for your fur baby or have any questions or concerns, I’m here to answer them all and hope you will consider me! I work M-F through a nearby school, being able to provide supervision to animals while I am home. Check my calendar for the most up to date availability, please 😌 House sitting: Provide overnight care, 24/7 care, other responsibilities to care for your home while you are away (watering plants, picking up mail, cleaning, etc.) Always love to send picture and video updates 2-3x/a day of your furry one to ensure you are comfortable and know that your animal is well cared for and happy in my care!
