About: I’ve had dogs my whole life, I’ve always had a love for animals, I’m kind and caring. Your pets are in good hands with me. I always take care of pets after I get off work and before I leave in the morning for work! They get fed, fresh water and belly rubs I have space for dogs to run and play. I can also bring them to the lake that’s just 20 minutes from my house for a nice swim.

Emma helped me out big time when I needed a last minute drop in for my standard poodle mix Nilla. She sent me updates and Nilla was happy to have the company! She followed all directions seamlessly and asked questions if she had them. Would definitely recommend Emma and am looking forward to reaching out to her in the future!

About: Hi, I’m Sarah! — a lifelong animal lover with a heart for dogs, cats, and all furry friends! I’ve grown up surrounded by pets and truly believe animals make a house a home—the more, the merrier! I’m gentle, patient, and kind, and I take pride in providing pets with the same love and attention they’re used to getting from you. Whether it’s long walks, cozy snuggles, or simply making sure your kitty feels safe and well-fed, I’m here to make sure your pet feels happy and cared for while you’re away. Their comfort always comes first! While I work full-time, I’m fortunate to have a very flexible schedule. I’m often able to work shorter days in the office or work from home, which allows me the time and flexibility to care for your pet’s needs—whether that’s a walk in the evening, mealtime, or just keeping them company. I live in an apartment, which means your dog will enjoy plenty of walks and outdoor time. My own dog tends to keep to herself, but if your pup enjoys a playful companion, we occasionally have an active golden retriever who comes for sleepovers and loves to make new friends!

About: I have a bit more varied experience than some. When I was young, we had a veritable zoo, and I haven't stopped having animals since. I've never not had a dog and was made responsible for over 30 miniature horses whenever their owner needed it. I also have experience with ferrets, cats, parakeets, parrots, and lizards. I will say if you need to look after something more exotic (and demanding) we would need to talk first. My dog is also quite old and has a lot of health problems, so I am familiar with handling these. I work Mondays from 12-7 and Tuesdays through Thursday I work 10-4. Friday, Saturday, and Sunday I have mostly open availability with the exception that I occasionally have work events. Each animal is different, and so I would strive to find that balance with your dog. Every dog plays a bit different or might need their food handled differently. While I can't take animals into my home at the present, I will strive to be as careful with meeting their needs as I do my own pup at home.

About: I’ve owned and cared for pets my whole life. I used to care for my neighbors cats, dogs and children! I have a masters degree in early childhood so I have an immense amount of patience. I am an elementary school teacher, so on the week days I am available after 5pm. My weekends are more open- let me know what you and your pet need and we can work something out! My boyfriend and I have two cats; Flash Gordon and Stevie Louise. They are the most spoiled kitties and I offer the same treatment and love to any other animals I meet.

About: No matter the breed or age of the dogs I have cared for, one thing remains the same - the love and affection they always share. I have over 24 years of experience caring for family dogs, and I really enjoy providing excellent care for other families' furry loved ones. I work remotely full-time from my home and am also able to work full-time from your home with Wifi. I am available to care for your pup(s) any day of the week. I have a large yard and will personally walk your dog in the yard as often as needed with a leash. I am available to take your dog for longer walks at least twice a day. I have a large indoor crate and dog beds if needed. I also have an outdoor kennel that is covered and shaded and has a dog house if your pup prefers to spend some time outside in good weather.

About: I’ve been taking care of dogs for most of my life, from daily walks and play time, to giving meds and cuddles. I treat every pet like my own I currently work two part time jobs so my schedule is very flexible. And I want to stay active and fill up some free time. Let’s find a time that works for both of us! In my home pets are treated like family. They get plenty of love, attention and play time. And I will try to keep your pets routines as close to normal as possible.
