About: I'm a work-from-home dog mom with a big fenced yard, and my own high-energy Border Collie keeps me on my toes every day. I also have three cats at home who run the place, so trust me—I understand that fur babies are family! 🌟 Weight limit: 5-70 lbs. 🌟 Time: Drop off after 8AM. Pick up before 10 PM. 🌟 Daycare over 10 hours is boarding. 🌟 Medication or extensive care will be extra. I've cared for dogs of all sizes, from tiny Maltese to fluffy Samoyeds, and I absolutely love the puppy stage—those wiggly greetings never get old! Whether your dog is a laid-back cuddler or a high-energy athlete, they'll fit right in here. Your dog will have a blast playing fetch or running around the yard with my Border Collie! I'm also happy to reinforce basic training if that's something you're working on—I'm currently doing agility and obedience training with my own pup. If yours just wants a friend to hang out with, that's perfect too. Since I'm home full time, your dog will have constant company, regular walks, and plenty of outdoor time in my secure yard. I'll send lots of photo updates and treat your pup exactly like I treat my own. A meet and greet is required before booking – I want to make sure we're all a good fit! Boarding (cats and dogs): Available weekdays & weekends (I work from home full time) 24/7. · Cat drop-in visits: Weekends (flexible), or Weekdays before 8am or after 5:30pm For Boarding in My Home: · Rabies, DHPP/DHLPP and Bordetella vaccines are required. · Make yourself at home: Home is pet-safe and clutter free. Yes, pets are allowed on the furniture! · Crate options: I have two crates available if your dog is crate trained or needs one. Crates get cleaned after each visit. · Quiet space: An empty room available if complete separation is ever needed · Night monitoring: I use a camera in the boarding room at night so I can check in anytime · Constant check-ins: I work from home full time, so I'm able to check on your dog throughout the day For Cat Drop-In Visits: · I wear gloves while doing all tasks to keep things clean and comfortable · If your cat or dog needs to be crated during my visit, I'm happy to do that

“Danielle was awesome! She was accommodating to last minute changes in my schedule, very responsive and communicated with me regularly. I would absolutely work with her again!”

Annalisa W.

“Courtney was terrific! She sent an update and photo every time she did her drop-in with Bernie, and it was clear she spent time just to give him some cuddling. She was very responsive and communicative, and Bernie seemed just fine when we got home. I recommend her highly!”

“Jupiter has been amazing! Often times, we would have to add or cancel day sitting sessions and Jupiter never had any problems with the change. Only reason we are leaving is because we were moving, otherwise we would keep Jupiter for our dogs entire life!”

About: I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life and have had my own dog for 12 years, so I’m very comfortable with daily pet care, routines, walks, feeding, and making sure pets feel safe and cared for. I’ve also watched friends’ dogs over the years and have experience with dogs of different sizes, personalities, and energy levels. I’m responsible, dependable, and genuinely enjoy being around animals, whether that means going on long walks, playing with them, or just keeping them company while their owners are away. I currently work part-time, so I’m available every weekday after 3 PM and have a flexible afternoon and evening schedule for walks, drop-ins, feeding schedules, and quality time! I make sure pets are comfortable, safe, and getting plenty of attention and activity throughout the day. I have crates available if needed, can use harnesses on walks for safety, and love taking dogs on multiple walks and spending time outside. I also enjoy playing fetch!

“On time, flexible, responsive, attentive and patient with our dogs, especially our older pup who is slower to warm up to new people. Will hire him again!”

Victoria P.

“Julia was tremendous! Julia communicated well, arrived on time, and provided great care of Miley - she has a clear love for dogs. Would definitely rebook in the future!”

Robert S.

“Geoffrey was excellent! He was punctual , gave the pup her food and medicine and was very careful to make sure everything was in order.”

Tracey S.

“Finley did a great job taking care of my cat, Billie. It was my first time going out of town since adopting her, so I was pretty nervous about how she would react. Finley took the time to let Billie acclimate to them, and sent me lots of pictures. Billie seemed so happy and calm when I got home. I would definitely book Finley in the future. Thanks again!”

About: My family loves animals, especially dogs. We are dedicated to making your dog feel at home while you’re busy. We will always treat your dog with love, compassion and respect. I love puppies but they must be house trained. My wife and I both work from home. I am self employed so I make my own hours and that allows me to provide exceptional care to your dog. We have a 2 year old French bull dog who is very friendly and gets along well with other dogs.Because I am an animal lover and giving back is so important to me I WILL DONATE 5% of my earnings to The MSPCA! I have a fenced in yard and we live on a quiet dead end street. The park is 2 minutes from our home and we go there often to allow our dog to play.I never have more than 3 dogs in my house at once which allows me to give your dog my undivided attention and love. Your dog will always be safe, happy and very well cared for.

About: As a dog owner myself, I know how important it is to find someone you trust. I provide reliable, loving care tailored to each pet’s needs, from playful puppies to senior dogs. You’ll receive regular photo updates, and your pet will be treated like family while you’re away I currently work as a health care worker. I enjoy taking care of everyone and want to spend my free time taking care of and playing with furry friends . My hours are short I am available to pet sit on the weekends. Caring for pets, whether in my home or my client's home, involves a tailored approach to ensure their comfort, safety, and happiness. Here's how I manage each setting: ### In My Home: 1. **Home Environment:** - **Safe and Comfortable Space:** My home is pet-proofed with designated areas for sleeping, eating, and playing. I ensure there are no hazards, and pets have access to comfortable bedding and toys. - **Regular Cleaning:** I maintain a clean environment with regular cleaning routines to prevent the spread of germs and keep the space pleasant. 2. **Routine and Care:** - **Feeding Schedule:** I follow the pet's regular feeding schedule and dietary requirements, providing fresh water and high-quality food. - **Exercise and Play:** Pets get daily exercise through walks, playtime, and interactive toys. I ensure they have mental and physical stimulation. - **Training and Socialization:** If needed, I continue with any training routines and offer socialization opportunities with other friendly pets in a controlled setting. - **Health Monitoring:** I keep an eye on the pet's health, checking for any signs of discomfort or illness, and administering medications if necessary. ### In Client's Home: 1. **Familiar Environment:** - **Home Visits:** I make scheduled visits to the client's home, ensuring the pet remains in a familiar environment, which can reduce stress. - **Pet Comfort:** I follow the pet's usual routines and keep their familiar items (like toys, beds, and bowls) in place to maintain comfort. 2. **Routine and Care:** - **Customized Care:** I adhere to the pet's specific care instructions provided by the owner, including feeding schedules, exercise routines, and medication administration. - **Exercise and Play:** I take the pet for walks, engage in playtime, and provide mental stimulation through games and activities. - **Household Duties:** I handle additional tasks like bringing in the mail, watering plants, and ensuring the home is secure. - **Regular Updates:** I provide the pet owner with updates, photos, and videos, ensuring they are informed about their pet's well-being. ### Common Practices: - **Emergency Preparedness:** In both settings, I am prepared for emergencies, with knowledge of nearby veterinary clinics and a well-stocked first aid kit. - **Communication:** I maintain clear and open communication with pet owners, addressing any concerns and keeping them informed about their pet's activities and health. By adapting my approach to the specific needs of each pet and the preferences of their owners, I ensure that pets receive consistent, high-quality care whether they are in my home or their own.
