I highly recommend her and will definitely reach out to her again next time!”


About: i am an icu nurse looking to spend some time with your furry friends and make some cash as a bonus! i can be trusted to administer needed medications and look after your pet! I work 3 days a week where I would be unavailable. The other 4 days my schedule is flexible enough to accommodate different schedules and pets! In my home, I have a small 2 year old yorkie who is all updated on shots and neutered. He is very sweet and loves to play with other dogs! He’s a regular at Shelby Dog park lol! The house has a fenced in backyard and doggie door to go outside as they please! If entering your home, I will ensure to keep the place tidy and pick up after the pet if they happen to make a mess. I will make sure to always lock the door appropriately and keep your property & pet safe!

“Abbey was able to help me for a last minute overnight trip I needed to take. She’s sweet, punctual, excellent communication, and she was very good with my two Chihuahuas. I highly recommend her and will be using her again in the future.”



About: I've never gone more than 6 months without a dog. I have raised puppies, taken in strays and cared for senior dogs. My own dog came from the boxer rescue. She was 2 years old when I got her and that was 8 and a half years ago. I am retired and therefore I have a pretty flexible schedule. I can generally make arrangements for any day of the week and for weekends. I can do drop-in visits for potty breaks, taking on walks and feed and water as needed. I can also administer any meds that may be needed. And I will always care for your babies just as I do my own.

About: I volunteer with many rescues locally and have 20+ years of experience with many types/ages of dogs! My dogs are very social and also happy to stay separate if needed! Depending on the needs I can be full time or part-time! flexible schedule currently. Please give specifics on what is needed so I can be sure our house is ready for your baby! I have a fenced yard and happy to leash walk for safety and crate and separate if the pup needs private time vs social time! whatever the owner needs!

About: I have taken care of many dogs and cats since I was 6. My parents made it clear that if I wanted pets, it would be my responsibility to take care of them. My pets have always been treated like they are children!! I work part time, but am currently available during the week after 1:30pm. I am also available most weekends to stop in and make sure your fur babies are well :) I give a lot of attention to my pets. I am always making sure they have food, they have water, they get attention, play time, and a clean space. I like to keep a routine with my animals to ensure their needs are met.

“Jamie and Cody were great! They communicated with me throughout my time away, letting me know how my babies were doing. I was able to enjoy my vacation without worrying about the pups. I will be booking Jamie and Cody again in the future.”
