About: I’ve taken care my own and others’ pets since I was 14. I don’t have pets of my own at the moment so I relish any opportunity to spend time with and care for others’ adorable cats and dogs. I am currently available at all times on the weekends. From September through May I work during the week, and from June through August a have availability all week long. I am someone who is able to work with any type of schedule to meet your pet’s needs and am comfortable with any type of home environment.

You will not find a better person to care for your pet. Kristen is caring, attentive, and exactly the type of person I needed to care for my high energy pup while I'm at work. She cares and wants to do what is the best for you and your pet. So happy to have met her, you will not be disappointed!

Bekka was amazing! She's very detail-oriented and adapted to the quirks of my two cats' quickly. She was a lifesaver over a pretty long stretch over the holidays and took fantastic care of them. I came home to two happy cats. (She's also awesome at taking cat pictures and the updates were perfect.) Thank you so much Bekka! :)

About: I’ve grown up with cats and dogs my entire life. Even through college and grad school, I had roommates with pets. Now I’m living in a rental that doesn’t allow animals, so I’m hoping to find some local pets to care for and spend time with! I’ve cared for cats and dogs of all ages and activity levels since I was young, and I enjoy taking dogs for walks any time of year! I’m a middle school teacher, so I have a pretty consistent schedule from August-June. Most days I’m able to leave work by 3, so I have all afternoon and evening to care for pets. In the summer and on breaks, I have a lot more flexibility with my schedule. I do have a small fenced in yard in case I had a client’s pet in my home, though I’d more than likely care for the pets in the client’s home. I have experience feeding, bathing, crating, giving meds, walking, and snuggling dogs of all ages and activity levels, as well as feeding and giving meds to cats.

Sarah was very helpful when I needed to have a drop in sitter for the weekend. She was respectful of my apartment and followed the directions I provided perfectly. She took pictures during her visits as well which is always appreciated. She also went above and beyond and was incredibly flexible with letting me pick up and drop off the keys as my plans changed. Great experience for me and my cat!

About: Hi, I’m Maddie! I’m a lifelong dog lover and dedicated dog trainer with years of hands-on experience working with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities. From cuddly couch potatoes to high-energy working breeds, I’ve built a strong understanding of canine behavior—and I absolutely love what I do. I offer dog boarding, doggy daycare, drop-in visits, and dog walks, with flexible availability to fit your schedule. Whether your pup needs a fun-filled day of play or a cozy place to stay while you’re away, I’ve got you covered. My walks may be priced a bit higher, but they come with added value: if you’d like, I’ll incorporate leash manners and basic obedience training into the walk at no extra cost. It’s a great way to keep your dog mentally and physically engaged while reinforcing positive behavior. My doggy daycare service is perfect for busy pet parents who want their dogs to enjoy a full day of enrichment and social time in a safe environment. I offer transportation for daycare (and overnight boarding) within a reasonable distance in my dedicated van, which is equipped with secure crates for safe and comfortable travel. Your dog will have access to a full acre of securely fenced yard to run, play, and explore—plus a dog-friendly pool to cool off in during hot days! To ensure a safe and structured environment, all dogs will be crate rotated throughout the day. Crate rotation provides dogs with the rest and structure they need while preventing overstimulation and helping maintain a peaceful group dynamic. Safety is always my number one priority! I’ve previously worked in an animal hospital, so I’m also experienced in administering medications and providing attentive care for dogs with special health needs. Whether it’s pills, or a customized care routine, I make sure your dog is comfortable and well cared for. Right now, I’m in the exciting process of growing my dog boarding and training business full-time. I’ve completely finished and transformed my basement into a dedicated board-and-train facility to provide a safe, clean, and enriching environment for every dog that stays with me. I’m currently working on obtaining all the proper licensing to operate at the highest professional standard. For now we’re going through Rover! For everyone’s safety, all dogs staying overnight will be crated during sleeping hours and when unsupervised. This helps ensure the well-being of your pup as well as the safety of other dogs in my care. Each crate setup is comfortable and designed to help your dog feel secure and relaxed. I bring energy and enthusiasm to every interaction—whether I’m caring for a laid-back senior dog or working with a high-drive sport dog. I also compete in dog sports with my own dogs, so I’m extremely comfortable handling all energy levels. While I’m not yet a certified dog trainer, I’m actively working toward professional dog training credentials to continue growing my knowledge and giving each dog the best care possible. I use only positive, reward-based training methods that help dogs feel safe, confident, and loved. If you’re looking for someone who brings both experience and heart to every visit, walk, or overnight stay, I’d love to meet you and your pup. I truly can’t wait to meet my new clients—both human and canine—and welcome every dog into my care as if they were my own. Your pup will be treated like family every step of the way!! Positive Puppy Training Sessions 🐾 I offer private, positive-based puppy training sessions designed to help your pup build confidence, learn good manners, and strengthen their bond with you. • Single Session: $90 • Training Bundle: $80/session (4 sessions total – 1 session a week for a month) The bundle covers all the puppy basics: ✅ Recall (coming when called) ✅ Sit, Stay, and Down ✅ Leash Manners ✅ Handling Puppy Biting Every session is fun, personalized, and focused on setting you and your puppy up for long-term success. ✨ Free consultations available! I’m happy to chat with you beforehand to see how I can best support you and your pup. Taking care of pets is what I do every day—it’s the heart of my business. I offer full-time boarding, daycare, and training from my home, which is set up just for dogs. Every day is planned around keeping dogs safe, happy, and engaged, making sure each one gets the attention and care they deserve. At my home, dogs enjoy a safe, structured environment with crate rotation, a fenced acre to run, and a pool to cool off. I treat every dog like my own, keeping things fun but safe. For drop-ins and walks, I follow any care instructions closely and can include basic training or medication if needed. Your dog’s safety and happiness always come first!

About: I've been around horses, dogs, and cats since I was 5 years old. Even though Maverick is my first dog I've owned, I've had the opportunity to take care of and be around dogs and cats my entire life. I'm currently working full time with a hybrid schedule. I am available weekends, as well as weekday evenings and some mornings. I have roommates who are also able to help take care of your loved one if needed. I have a big yard with woods and a stream that Maverick loves to run around in. Maverick was trained off leash and the yard does not have a fence. However, I go on 3-4 daily walks with him. I also have a tie for outside and a crate if needed. Along with a big, 2 story house for extra room to play.

About: I treat every pet like they’re my own—with patience, love, and lots of belly rubs! I take the time to learn their personality, routines, and needs so they feel safe, happy, and loved while you're away. Whether it’s playtime, cuddles, or a quiet walk, I’m fully present and genuinely enjoy every moment I spend with them. Your pet’s comfort and happiness are always my top priorities. Pet care routine fits perfectly in my recent schedule, since Im working on my own business and trying to work as a photographer. My schedule is pretty open for now. Whether I’m caring for pets in your home or mine, their safety and comfort always come first. I maintain a calm, clean, and pet-friendly environment with lots of cozy spots and zero hazards. I follow all your instructions carefully—from feeding and medication to routines and house rules—because consistency helps pets feel secure. I also give regular updates with photos, so you can relax knowing your pet is happy and well cared for. Your trust means everything to me, and I treat every pet like family.

About: I have had a love for animal my whole life. I have had the opportunity to take of my friend's dogs. I would pet sit for my mother's dogs for years and gained lots of experience. I currently own a 2 year old, spade, Golden Doodle named Yumi with my girlfriend. I'm in-between jobs at the moment, so I will have plenty of time to care and play with your pups. My schedule is completely open. I usually walk my dog every 3-4 hours. There is plenty of yard space for play outside. Usually feeding is 2 times a day unless otherwise specified by the owner

This helps ensure the well-being of your pup as well as the safety of other dogs in my care. Each crate setup is comfortable and designed to help your dog feel secure and relaxed. I bring energy and enthusiasm to every interaction—whether I’m caring for a laid-back senior dog or working with a high-drive sport dog. I also compete in dog sports with my own dogs, so I’m extremely comfortable handling all energy levels. While I’m not yet a certified dog trainer, I’m actively working toward professional dog training credentials to continue growing my knowledge and giving each dog the best care possible. I use only positive, reward-based training methods that help dogs feel safe, confident, and loved. If you’re looking for someone who brings both experience and heart to every visit, walk, or overnight stay, I’d love to meet you and your pup. I truly can’t wait to meet my new clients—both human and canine—and welcome every dog into my care as if they were my own. Your pup will be treated like family every step of the way!! Positive Puppy Training Sessions 🐾 I offer private, positive-based puppy training sessions designed to help your pup build confidence, learn good manners, and strengthen their bond with you. • Single Session: $90 • Training Bundle: $80/session (4 sessions total – 1 session a week for a month) The bundle covers all the puppy basics: ✅ Recall (coming when called) ✅ Sit, Stay, and Down ✅ Leash Manners ✅ Handling Puppy Biting Every session is fun, personalized, and focused on setting you and your puppy up for long-term success. ✨ Free consultations available! I’m happy to chat with you beforehand to see how I can best support you and your pup. Taking care of pets is what I do every day—it’s the heart of my business. I offer full-time boarding, daycare, and training from my home, which is set up just for dogs. Every day is planned around keeping dogs safe, happy, and engaged, making sure each one gets the attention and care they deserve. At my home, dogs enjoy a safe, structured environment with crate rotation, a fenced acre to run, and a pool to cool off. I treat every dog like my own, keeping things fun but safe. For drop-ins and walks, I follow any care instructions closely and can include basic training or medication if needed. Your dog’s safety and happiness always come first!

About: I've been around horses, dogs, and cats since I was 5 years old. Even though Maverick is my first dog I've owned, I've had the opportunity to take care of and be around dogs and cats my entire life. I'm currently working full time with a hybrid schedule. I am available weekends, as well as weekday evenings and some mornings. I have roommates who are also able to help take care of your loved one if needed. I have a big yard with woods and a stream that Maverick loves to run around in. Maverick was trained off leash and the yard does not have a fence. However, I go on 3-4 daily walks with him. I also have a tie for outside and a crate if needed. Along with a big, 2 story house for extra room to play.

I can’t recommend Olena enough! She has a natural gift of making animals feel comfortable with her. She truly cares about their wellbeing and safety. Olena takes care of my cat Percy when i’m out of town, and goes above and beyond with sending me photo updates and bringing new toys. She is always reliable and attentive.

Thomas was great! He took care of my two dogs when I was away, which wasn’t that easy since one of them has kidney disease and need subcutaneous fluids everyday. Will book again in the future!

About: I have had a love for animal my whole life. I have had the opportunity to take of my friend's dogs. I would pet sit for my mother's dogs for years and gained lots of experience. I currently own a 2 year old, spade, Golden Doodle named Yumi with my girlfriend. I'm in-between jobs at the moment, so I will have plenty of time to care and play with your pups. My schedule is completely open. I usually walk my dog every 3-4 hours. There is plenty of yard space for play outside. Usually feeding is 2 times a day unless otherwise specified by the owner
