About: I’ve helped take care of pets since I was little and I’ve been trusted to house sit before multiple times. Family and friends have relied on me to help when I can and I’ve always been able to make it work around my schedule! I’ve always been told I’m very responsible and good with animals, if I am given the opportunity I would take great care of your furry friends and home! I’m a current student working part time, but for now while I’m on summer break I have almost complete availability! I have a dog and a cat, so caring for my family pets is a huge part of my daily life. I have a fenced in yard perfect for furry friends to roam around in! My house isn’t huge, so I always know where the animals are and it’s easy to pay attention to their needs. I’m a pretty active person, so walks and play time are an exciting and fun part of pet care! I also have a complete understanding of the other responsibilities that come with having pets.

“Kasondra was great with our pups. She was very understanding with all our requests and made us feel comfortable having her take care of them. We’ll definitely be using her again.”


About: I’ve taken care of many types of animals for over 10 years. I love working with animals, specifically learning how I can take the best care of them. It makes me happy to keep pets and the environment as healthy as possible.💚😁 I have a ginormous yard where there is plenty of space to walk, run, and play around. I am usually visit pets 2-3 times a day, anytime during the day and possibly available for over night stays. If there is anything else you or your pet needs, just ask!! I have a very large yard with no fence. I can keep dogs on a leash if needed. There’s plenty of space to run and play.

“Sarah was wonderful with our dogs! She took them for a long walk which they love. Oliver and Oreo really liked Sarah also. She was very patient and loving toward the dogs! Sarah has a great personality which is very much suited to dog walking/care!! Thank you, Sarah!”


About: When I was 12 I started walking dogs for my neighbors and the elderly people around my neighborhood, I absolutely love dogs especially big ones! My family always had so many dogs growing up, so I feel very comfortable around pretty much any dog, I feel comfortable bathing and walking and playing any size or type of dog! I currently work in the morning during the week, I usually get off at 2:00pm or earlier. I am free almost every weekend, and any weekday after 2:00pm at the latest I currently do not have any dogs, but I do have three cats and other types of small pets and lizards. When I am watching over your fur baby I will treat them as my own, and give them a fun time with lots of play and attention, while still following the parents requests. This is the first time I’ve lived in a home without a dog so I would love to be able to spend some time with your fur baby!

About: Hi, I’m Rob! I work from home, which means your pup will get plenty of attention, love, and care throughout the day. I’ve been around dogs my whole life and have several years of hands-on experience as both a foster and pet sitter. I’ve cared for dogs of all sizes, breeds, and energy levels—from high-energy puppies to senior dogs who need a little extra TLC. I’m comfortable with all parts of pet care, including: • Administering medications (oral, topical, and even injections) • Following feeding and potty schedules closely • Crate training and leash walking • Helping anxious or shy dogs feel safe and settled I take pride in creating a calm, consistent environment that helps pets feel right at home. Whether your dog needs extra playtime, belly rubs, or just someone to chill on the couch with—I’m happy to meet them where they are. 📅 Availability: I’m available for overnight boarding. (Please see my calendar for availability and message me with any questions) I’m also available for doggy daycare between 7 a.m. and 7 p.m., with flexibility outside those hours on a case-by-case basis. 🚗 Pickup/Drop-off: Available for an added fee, if that makes things easier. 🐾 Bonus: My 6-year-old son stays with me half the time and absolutely loves dogs. Your pup will get an extra playmate for backyard games, fetch, and couch snuggles. I know how important it is to find someone who truly cares about your pet—I’d love the chance to give your dog a safe, fun, and loving home-away-from-home! Since I work from home, I’m able to maintain a consistent schedule for the pets I care for. I make sure they get regular bathroom breaks, plenty of free-roaming time both inside and outside, fresh water available at all times, and daily walks to get their energy out. I’m very familiar with the zoomies-to-napping cycles, and I’m here for all of it. Pets are treated like friends and family here. I’m calm, consistent, and firm when it comes to guidance, but never use any kind of violence or harsh correction. I follow the training and commands you’ve already put in place, use the harnesses, collars, and leashes you provide, and only feed the food and treats you bring. My backyard is fully enclosed with a 6-foot privacy fence and one secure gate that requires opposable thumbs to open—so no escape artists here! My own Doodle is crate-trained and uses the crate overnight and when I’m away. I also use baby gates throughout the house when needed to keep pets safely separated or out of areas they shouldn’t be in. You’re welcome to bring your own crate, ask if I have one available, or let me know if your dog is house-trained and prefers to roam freely. I’ll make sure they have a safe and comfortable space either way. You’ll also get regular pictures and updates from me throughout your pet’s stay so you can feel connected and confident while you’re away.
