“Saige went above and beyond in caring for my two dogs. One of them is undergoing heartworm treatment, and as a result is on many meds that make her incontinent. Saige was a trooper in keeping the house as clean as possible. She is also just as nice as can be. I would absolutely recommend her.”

About: Animals aren’t just pets to me. They are individuals with emotions, personalities, and needs that deserve to be understood and respected. You can feel completely at ease knowing their happiness, comfort, and safety are always my top priority. As an animal rights advocate, I approach every animal with genuine compassion and awareness, tailoring my care to who they are, not just what they need on paper. Whether they are energetic, shy, playful, or sensitive, I meet them where they are and give them the attention and love that helps them feel truly safe and seen. You can trust that I will show up consistently, follow routines closely, and create a calm, caring environment while you are away. I do not just watch animals. I connect with them, care for them, and treat them like they matter, because they do. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine, and I structure my schedule to allow consistent time for walks, feeding, check-ins, and companionship. I generally maintain a flexible routine, which allows me to adjust based on each pet’s needs and the specific care plan we agree on. I’m intentional about not overbooking so I can stay attentive and responsive while pets are in my care. My availability can vary slightly week to week, but I prioritize clear communication and planning in advance to ensure expectations are aligned and your pet’s routine is supported as closely as possible. I aim to create a calm, safe, and comfortable environment based on each pet’s routine and personality. Whether I’m in your home or mine, I follow your instructions closely while staying attentive to how your pet is feeling. In your home, I keep things consistent with their normal schedule so they feel secure. In my home, I maintain a clean, low-stress space with close supervision and attention to safety and care. I stay mindful during walks and interactions and avoid anything that could feel overwhelming or risky. I also provide regular updates with photos and check in if anything seems off so we can decide what’s best together. I do not have pets of my own, but there are pets in the home belonging to my roommates. They are well-managed, and I take care to ensure safe, controlled interactions. I can also keep pets fully separated at all times if preferred

“Very happy to have found Dawn! She's caring and loves your babies like her own. Dawn was great at documenting Cashmere's glucose level (patience to get the blood draw is necessary and she was and gentle as well) and administering his insulin .... just all around very detailed in her notes and very appreciated! She sent pics too! Dawn moved any packages inside the house and was kind enough to water a plant outside when we didn't get much rain. We appreciate her detail and genuine care and highly recommend her! Thank you SO much, Dawn!!!”

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 4 years old. My parents allowed us to get dogs only if we took full responsibility for them!

About: What sets me apart is the deep-rooted experience and love I have for animals. I’ve been taking care of dogs since I was 9 years old, from walking neighborhood pups to helping with family pets. I’ve also fostered dogs, which taught me how to care for animals with a wide range of personalities and needs—from playful puppies to more reserved or nervous dogs. Whether your pet needs high-energy playtime or extra patience and comfort, I provide care that’s attentive, loving, and tailored to them. You can count on me to treat your pet like family and keep you updated every step of the way. I'm currently working a full time internship, 9-5 pm during the weekdays. I'm available after 5pm for evening care/walks, and have more availability on the weekends! In my home or yours, I focus on creating a calm, safe, and fun environment where pets feel comfortable and loved. I stick closely to their normal routines—mealtimes, walk schedules, playtime, and any special care instructions—so they feel secure even when their humans are away. Whether it's keeping things tidy, giving lots of affection, or making sure they get plenty of exercise, I’m all about giving personalized care that matches each pet’s needs. Communication is important to me too, so I always keep owners updated with messages and photos!

About: I love spoiling dogs and making them feel loved. As a person who had a life long companion I feel like i know how to treat a dog the way they should be treated (which is with lost of treats and belly rubs). I would say that i am a really sweet and nice girl as well as pretty active too. I've worked with dogs as well at a groomers, which i think gives me advantage on understanding if there is something wrong or if the dog needs something. I will always work harder then what is conceded normal as well as super patient. Weather your dog is big or small i know i can be a great person of use when it comes to dog. Hope to see you and your big/small guy/girl! :)

About: My siblings and I had so many dogs growing up, we never even asked we just brought them home. We lived in the country (like dead end road and everything lol) so having a dog around training them and loving them was our lifeline. I work full time but am free nights and weekends. My husband is off for the summer and has been a great help taken care of our dogs and helping some times with requests. We live in an apartment complex that has a great big dog park, we also have two dogs that love to lay around. We did have ours crate trained and house trained.
