“Kelly is communicative, accommodating, and our fur babies love her! She always reaches out with questions or concerns if they should ever arise and that puts our mind at ease. We love and would recommend Kelly to anyone!”

About: ☀️ DAYTIME ONLY • NO OVERNIGHTS ☀️ I specialize in focused daytime companionship blocks, drop-ins, and walks. I don’t offer overnights or boarding, which means your pet gets 100% of my energy during the day, and I get to head home to my own pack at night! 🐾 I provide way more than basic pet sitting—I’m all about companionship, routine, and real peace of mind. My Favorites & Specialties: The Sweet Seniors: Older pups are my jam! I’m great with slower strolls, medication reminders, mobility assistance, and extra comfort care. Daytime Companionship Blocks: Need someone to hang out with your anxious pup or senior pet for 2 to 4 hours while you run errands or head to lunch? I’m your person! Patience & Calm Energy: I love building trust with dogs who need an extra-patient, calm human presence to feel safe. With a background in customer service and caregiving, I’m ultra-dependable, communicative, and detail-oriented. Whether your pet needs a high-energy outdoor adventure or just a cozy daytime hang, I tailor every visit to their exact vibe. Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine because I genuinely enjoy spending time with animals and being active. I have a flexible schedule that allows me to give pets attention, consistency, companionship, exercise, and personalized care throughout the day. I enjoy creating, fun, positive experiences for pets whether that means walks, playtime, relaxing companionship, check-ins, enrichment activities, or simply helping them stick to their normal routine while their owners are away or busy. I also love to go on hikes close by and running those really active pups. I treat every pet like an individual and make time to ensure they feel comfortable, safe, and cared for. A typical day with me is calm, flexible, and tailored to your pet’s personality and energy level. Some pets want adventure, enrichment, and outdoor time, while others are happiest with companionship, routine, cuddles, and a relaxed environment. I focus on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while keeping owners updated with communication and photos. Depending on your pet’s needs, visits can include walks, playtime, enrichment activities, feeding, medication support, potty breaks, relaxing companionship, or outings for extra stimulation and exercise. I’m especially patient with shy pets, seniors, and animals who need extra reassurance or consistency. I believe pets do best when they feel understood instead of rushed or stressed. My goal is simple: happy pets, peace of mind for owners, and care that feels personal instead of one-size-fits-all.

“I am very picky with who I let around my dog, Dexter, but as I soon as I began conversing with Ashlie, I was put at ease. I felt instantly that I could trust her, and my instincts were right! Ashlie exudes positive energy, she is prompt in communicating with me while walking Dexter, and she sends me photos of their adventures together. I came home to a very happy, and well taken care of, fur baby. I will definitely be using Ashlie’s services in the future!”

About: It’s never fun leaving your animals behind, but I can make sure they are not bored in your absence. I have a huge fenced yard for them to run around in. I’ve owned dogs of different temperaments my whole life and have never met one I don’t like. I can spend the time doing whatever you’d like your dog to do, whether that’s just a walk around the neighborhood or a hike. Just make a request if there is special needs I’m sure I can accommodate to them. I’ll make sure your pets are satisfied throughout the day and not laying around getting all wound up. I hope you’ll let me enjoy the company of your furry friends while you’re busy working making sure they have a good life!

“Diane had excellent communication throughout the booking and made sure to give plenty of updates and pictures of my pups. My dogs were very well taken care of and I was completely at ease having Diane over their care! Highly recommended and will be booking again when the needs arise! Thank you!!!”

“Talk about peace of mind! Sophie's first week with our dog was awesome. She's a natural problem solver when it comes to animal's needs. Every day, she sends a well thought-out summary of their play time and comments on observations any pet owner would want to know about. She's punctual, responsive, reliable, and super friendly. We're lucky to have her!”

About: I've owned and cared for cats and dogs my whole life. I have always had a soft spot for all animals and consider them the purest souls on earth. I believe we each have an individual responsibility to provide the best environment and stimulation for the creatures in our care as we are lucky to be stewards over them for their time with us. It is important to me to provide a fully pet-safe sanitized, comfortable, safe environment for every cat that stays in my hotel. I can't wait to get to know and spend time with your little loves! I am a stay at home mom who is available round the clock to care for your furry best friend! Cat Boarding is my specialty but I have also owned dogs my whole life, both big and small and am ready to play with and walk your pup! I am available for my kitty clients around the clock. I check in on them frequently throughout the day and send pictures and videos daily. Each kitty receives mental stimulation and individual play time (if wanted by them of course) as well as one hour a day of kitty tv. When out on adventures with my dog-walking clients, we will explore different places, spend time sniffing and getting mental stimulation, and end each adventure with some play and snuggles.

“Kirk was wonderful. His communication was top notch and I loved the pictures and videos that I received from the scheduled walks. Will definitely reach out to Kirk again!”

About: This year has not only deepened my love for dogs, but it’s also given me the skills and experience necessary to provide high-quality care. I’ve learned to anticipate a dog’s needs, from offering extra snuggles to ensuring they get plenty of exercise and fresh air. Each dog has taught me something new about patience, responsibility, and the special bond between humans and dogs. I am available for boarding every day from 11 am to 8 pm and I will be glad to take care of your pets for necessary period I have a deep understanding of pet behavior and know how to provide personalized care that keeps each pet safe, comfortable, and happy while their owners are away.

About: I enjoy taking care of pets and being around animals. I've owned several dogs and cats through out my life. I can take care of them at my house with a fenced in yard. My time is very flexible. Over night stays and longer visits are available. If you have any other questions or concerns let me know. I hang out all day with my dogs. We have an acre of land to play fetch and run around. I have no set routine. I love to give them love, affection, and treats. There is usually a lot of play time and keeping them entertained with toys and walks.

“Afia was wonderful with Ginger today. She was incredibly thorough, patient, and took the time to work with her at Ginger’s pace, which I really appreciated. Ginger can be a high-energy dog, and it’s clear Afia understands how to handle that in a calm, positive way. I left feeling confident that Ginger was in great hands, and I’m so happy we’ve found her. Highly recommend!”

About: Experience/Qualifications: General Dog Care: - Dogsitter with compensated/professional experience providing dog care services from 2014-present - Dog owner (11 years of experience as an adult as primary/sole caregiver for a dog, additional dog care experience having family dogs growing up) Dog foster experience (13 months): - From 2020-2021, I volunteered as a foster home for dogs through a local animal foster/rescue organization. During this period, I fostered six dogs. - I provided a stable/stress-free home environment as well as behavioral/obedience training work (leash walking, crate training, potty training, obedience commands, etc) to address/resolve behavioral issues and encourage socialization skills to help dogs become adopted successfully. Clinical/volunteer experience (3 years) as a pre-vet undergraduate student: - I accrued 300+ volunteer hours working with dogs/cats in various vet clinics/hospitals, ASPCA, and animal rescue organizations. - I acquired 2 semesters of mentored clinical experience, receiving formal training from a licensed veterinarian, for academic credit (i.e., in a strictly graded/performance-evaluated environment). I was trained to perform tasks similar in complexity to vet technicians’ responsibilities (e.g. physical examinations, administering oral/injected medications, parasitic diagnostic lab testing, assisting with neuter/spay surgeries and dental cleaning, surgical procedure anesthesia monitoring, assisted X-ray diagnostic imaging, owner-requested euthanasia). I currently work in a fully remote position. My weekday routine consists of 1-2 walks between meetings during the workday, in addition to morning and evening walks. During the week, I generally take the dogs on walks in my neighborhood, with occasional longer walks at different dog friendly parks. On weekends/holidays (weather permitting), I occasionally visit places like Wheeler Farm, Crestwood Park, or other local parks. Alternatively, when I have more free time over the weekend, I enjoy going on short (1-3 mile) hikes with my dog. - I have a small fenced backyard, although I don't ever leave dogs I'm taking care of in the backyard unattended. - I keep dogs physically separated from each other during any periods of time where I will not be home. This is to ensure the safety of all dogs when I am not physically present to supervise. This protects against even the most unlikely minor disagreement between dogs that could happen over toys or food, which could quickly escalate into a fight where a dog gets injured. - If there are multiple dogs present that are unfamiliar with each other, I make gradual introductions between unfamiliar dogs, remove possible sources for contention (I.e., food/treats sitting out, toys, etc.), and supervise all play/interaction while they are adjusting to each other. - If I need to leave to run an errand, I never leave them unattended for a period of more than several hours (or less depending on the individual dog's needs).

“McKenzie has just started walking my dog. She has been great with her. She’s great with Communication, patience, kindness, and going the extra mile. My girl loves her. I can’t recommend McKenzie enough!”

“Anika did so well with our Australian Shepherd after he’d been cooped up for a week as we welcomed a new baby. She even ended up having to walk him in the rain and was so positive about it. 😊”

“I’m always a little anxious when I need to leave my pup, but I’m so glad that this awesome family were willing to take my dog on several walks and play with her this weekend while I was gone (also on short notice!). It really helped my stress go down knowing that she was in capable and caring hands!”

Karissa K.

“We are so grateful that Evelyn was able to help us out on short notice. She is friendly, consistent and asked good questions. Our dog warmed up to her easily. We would recommend her to others!”
