About: I have been taking care of animals since I was 14. I would walk the neighborhood animals and care for them when my neighbors were out of town. Since I have moved on my own I do in house daycare and care for my friends animals when they are out of town. I also walk their dogs if they have long days of work so they don’t have to worry and the animals needs are met I work from home so I am there all day and able to let them out as many times as they need as well as take them on walks. I have a fenced in back yard and a very friendly dog that can keep yours company. I also can crate the pets if that if your preference and help with crate training so they don’t come out of routine

“Nala loved Jhonna! We loved Jhonna! She was always super friendly when she came to pick up Nala and would help feed and water her as well. Communication was great and we loved seeing pictures of their walks together. We would definitely recommend her, and will certainly use her again!”


“Angela is a lifesaver! I have been working extra at the hospital every weekend due to Covid and her coming to walk my dog every morning that I work has been priceless. Her positive, upbeat and energetic attitude is just what my 8 month old Labrador needs after being in the house all night. And with my hurt back, just what I need after a 12 hour shift on my feet. I haven't used Angela for other services yet other than dog walking, but when I need them, she'll be the first one I ask. She is punctual, responsible, considerate, full of energy and always puts a smile on my Sochi's face!”


About: My family has had dogs my entire life. Several years ago a neighbor of ours fell ill and needed surgery. I walked her dog every day for three months to use the bathroom and have play time outdoors until she healed. When she went on vacations, I would dog sit for two weeks at a time. I enjoyed caring for the home and her dog so much that I continued with these services for several other people. Everything from playing with their dogs, walking them, taking them out for potty breaks, feeding them, and taking care of their home. I've come to love them and still have great relationships with the families. To those reading, it would be my pleasure to care for your animals as well! I am currently working as a self-employed freelancer and I have plenty of time to take care of your pets and your home! I am flexible with scheduling and will accommodate your needs whenever possible. I provide the services my client's need, adapting to each pet and housing situation. Of course I will be covering basic needs like water, food and potty breaks, but I will also go above and beyond giving lots of love and attention to your pet.

About: Staff at KHS who is always around animals. Big believer in slow introductions for safety and to make everyone comfortable.
