About: What truly sets me apart is my commitment to communication. I provide regular updates, photos, and detailed notes after each visit or walk, so you always feel connected to your pet. My background also includes volunteer work at a local animal shelter, where I gained hands-on experience handling dogs with special needs and anxiety. You can count on me to treat your pet and home with the same respect and care I’d expect for my own. Reliability, compassion, and peace of mind—that’s what I bring to every visit. Pet care is an integral part of my daily and weekly routine. I prioritize creating a consistent and safe environment for every pet in my care, whether that means early morning walks, timely feedings, or engaging play sessions throughout the day. I incorporate time each day to monitor health, behavior, and comfort, ensuring pets feel secure and loved while their owners are away. On a weekly basis, I plan for special outings, grooming (if needed), and ongoing communication with pet owners to provide updates and maintain trust. Caring for animals is more than a job—it’s a responsibility I take seriously, and I structure my schedule to reflect that commitment. I have a fenced in privacy fence back yard! As well as a temperature controlled garage if needed to separate! I have an extra crate if needed as well!

“Katie did amazing with my dog drew ! He absolutely loved her and I loved getting her pics as she walked him !! She also did amazing with my kitties! I will definitely be using her again !”


“Lauren was amazing. She tired out my baby on his walk, she walked the full time. Showed up on time. Talked with me about concerns I had with walking. We shared stories about our babies. She loved on all of my babies. And she talked to me about how I can do better with my pup with walks and things since he is my first! I will definitely be using her again if she’ll have me and Scout!”

“I wish you could see Polina's my Rottweiler”


About: I have been taking care of my own animals since I was little. I have experience with puppies and kittens to seniors dogs and cats! I have 2 cats and 4 dogs of my own so I'm a good fit with multiple furry friends! I work part-time but my job is flexible with my schedule.

About: Hi 👋 I’m Victoria! I graduated with a degree in Biochemistry with a concentration in pre-veterinary medicine from Mississippi State University in 2019. Then was admitted to Ross University for their veterinary medicine program. I love animals but decided I’d rather own the vet clinic than be the veterinarian so I worked as a vet tech while getting my MBA. I finished my masters in December of 2022 and have plans to start my own animal hospital. I have volunteered with several animal shelters and wildlife rehab centers since 2016. I worked at Animal Tracks Veterinary Hospital from June 2018 until August 2019. I have been trained in dog CPR at Mississippi State University’s school of veterinary medicine. I can do grooming (dogs and cats), with nail trim and ear cleaning for an extra $20 fee. I am able to medicate (oral, injections, creams, etc...). I have closely worked with with diabetic cats, cats with strokes (wobbly cat syndrome), post surgery care, and canine seizures. I can go on long runs, take them to the dog park, or just spend some time cuddling your furry family member. I will send daily pictures or videos of your pet while you’re away as well! I have experience working with domestic animals (large, small, and farm) as well as bobcats, bunnies, squirrels, birds, skunks, opossums, and coyotes. I am currently working on obtaining my wildlife rehabilitator certification. I’d love the chance to come meet your baby! I am currently working full-time for a tech company and am remote. If your fur babies need out in the middle of the day I can accommodate this as ling as I can use the WIFI. I have a cat, and 2 Australian Cattle Dogs who are very friendly. They are welcome to stay with me if they are potty trained and get along well with others.

“Our dog Sandra very much enjoyed her walks with Alex!”


About: With years of hands-on experience caring for a wide range of breeds, I’m confident handling different personalities and energy levels. I’m reliable, patient, and pay close attention to each pet’s routine and comfort. My goal is to make your dog feel secure and loved while you're away—just like you never left. As a stay-at-home mom, I have a flexible daytime schedule that allows me to give pets plenty of attention and care throughout the day. Pet care fits seamlessly into my routine, and I’m available for walks, drop-ins, and companionship during most daytime hours Monday through Friday. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, safety and comfort come first. I take time to understand each pet’s routine, needs, and personality to help them feel secure and relaxed. I follow any instructions closely—whether it’s feeding, medication, or favorite walking routes—and make sure they get plenty of attention, play, and rest in a calm, stress-free environment.

About: Through my time working in shelters, as a pet sitter/dog walker, and head trainer for multiple companies I have met and loved hundreds of dogs. My scientific background as well as extensive behavioral knowledge makes me extremely capable to take care of any breed and personality. I am an avid hiker and love to show dogs a good time. Whatever your pups preferred activities, I can accommodate and more! I love to add in mental exercise in the form of training and games to truly tire out your pup, not just physically, while working on valuable life skills as well. I have experience with reactivity, resource guarding, fearful/shy dogs, anxiety, medical issues, deaf/blind dogs, puppies and adolescents and more. My own three dogs- Flash, Capri, and Keller- are my best friends and best teachers. I can’t wait to meet your best friend too! Owning my own dog training company provides so much including a flexible schedule. My lessons are no longer than 2 hours at most and I typically only have 1-2 a day which gives me plenty of time morning, afternoon, and evening to continue to care for dogs in whatever capacity you need. I treat every client’s home and dog as my own. I respect privacy and security making sure to check and double check all gates, doors, and locks. Working at a professional pet sitting company for many years in the past has given me the experience to get in and out of your house safely while caring for your dog and providing you with peace of mind. Your dog is my top priority when I am with them. I value leash safety and carry my own safety equipment at all times including non-slip martingale collars, extra leashes, and carabiners. I am a pro at avoiding off leash dogs or other unwanted attention on walks depending on your dogs preferences. I pride myself on a deep understanding of canine body language allowing me to determine when and what your dog would like to do or avoid.

“Debbie Albano for Lauren Lauren’s just been a blessing to me and my dogs. She takes my little Yorkie, Goliath, for walks and gives him all the attention he needs. Before I lost my other three—Gabby, Sampson, and Saban—she helped with them too, even walked my outdoor dogs, which not everybody is willing to do. I work from home, but it’s such a comfort knowing they’re not just cooped up. She’s sweet, dependable, and you can tell she truly cares. I don’t know what I’d do without her.”
