About: I absolutely love dogs. My wife's family has always had dogs. They currently have a German Shepard and a chocolate lab. I absolutely adore them. I have a large fenced in yard, I am also very flexible to come and sit anytime you need. I love taking dogs for a walk and I love playing with them at the park especially fetch! I am very reliable and safe and come from a dog family. I will love and care for your dog like I it is my own. My children are now in middle school and high school and they love dogs as well. I can provide loving and affection for your dog and care for it like it was my own. I hope to hear from you soon Taking care of a pet just becomes part of my everyday flow. You feed them, take them out or clean up after them, and make time to play or cuddle a bit. Most days involve quick things like feeding and walks, while once a week you might do a deeper clean or grooming. It’s not too hard once you get into a rhythm—it just becomes routine. I make sure pets are safe, comfortable, and well cared for, whether they’re in my home or a client’s. That includes feeding them on schedule, giving them fresh water, and making time for walks, play, or snuggles—whatever they need to feel happy and relaxed. I stick to their usual routine as much as possible to keep things familiar. If I’m in a client’s home, I also make sure everything stays clean and tidy, and I always send updates so they know their pet is doing great. I also have a fenced in yard.


“Jessica was absolutely wonderful at taking care of our cat and dog over the weekend. It gave us peace of mind to have someone like her watch over our pets.”


“Emily was awesome to work with. I have a very large, energetic German Shepherd. She was able to stay at our house with him while we were away. He does not do well at a kennel and this allowed him to stay in his own home. I immediately noticed he was calmer upon my return. Emily played with him throughout the day and kept me updated on how he was doing. Since we are in a pandemic, Emily also was kind enough to disinfect surfaces before we got home. I will absolutely work with Emily again.”


“If you want a pet sitter who will treat your pets like their own, pick Mackenzie!! She is our go to pet sitter for our three dogs and two cats. She goes above and beyond every time and is so good with them all! I have dogs ranging from 7 pounds to 110 pounds and I would trust her with any of them any day! Thank you Mackenzie, my babies love you!”


“Elizabeth was wonderful! She stayed at our home for 6 nights, and replied to texts immediately and sent pictures of our 2 dogs and 2 cats everyday. The pets took to her right away. She has a calming demeanor and very polite. I highly recommend Elizabeth.”


About: Hi! My name is Alicia. I am a Licenced Veterinary Techician, and graduated from IMBC. I have two cats and two jumping spiders currently. I was a full-time LVT at NEAH, but left recently due to compassion fatigue. I have experience with exotics as I used to own rats, a fire skink, and have cared for bearded dragons in the past. I would like to get to know you before coming into your home and caring for your pets. I think establishing trust between each other is an important step to becoming a valued pet sitter. I’m very excited to meet you and your little companions! I am currently working part time doing odd jobs and would love to add this to my routine! I have so much love for animals! Cleanliness is a top priority of mine when it comes to feeding and potty time. Additionally, I know the basics of first aid and CPR in a situation where the worst would occur. I believe this is important knowledge for any sitter to have.

Michele S.
“Hello. I have known Michele for a few years now. Wow like 5 now that I think about it. She has taken great care of my 2 fur babies Boomer and Maverick while he was alive. Those 2 pups had no fear or anxiety walking into Michele’s shop for grooming. Boomer is a boxer with lots of fear aggression. She knew exactly how to interact with him. She quickly gained his trust and became one of his favorite people. She is excellent with pets. I have taken care of hers when she needed someone to stop over. Her pups were treated so well. Fed well. Exercised. She is just fantastic. My pups and I were so sad to see her move away but we were happy for her.”

Theresa M.
“Theresa is someone whom you could leave you dog with and feel zero anxiety knowing that your furbaby is in excellent hands! She is extremely loving, caring, nurturing, responsible, and attentive with dogs, putting them before herself. Her experience as a dog-mom and a dog-lover has taught her how to take care of a litany of dog breeds and behaviors, making her someone who is always considering the multitude of possibilities when watching a dog. Her concern with making sure the dog is safe, taken care of, and happy is first and foremost whenever a dog is nearby (even if she is not responsible for it), and as a result, she will make sure that you feel at ease entrusting her with your furbaby!”
