“Adaline is AMAZING! We’re so happy to have someone we trust to come visit our puppy during the day while we’re gone for work. She not only ensures that our girl gets her potty breaks, but she also provides exceptional care with so much affection and patience with our very energetic pup. We couldn’t be happier!”


“Cassidy was amazing! Her communication and attention to detail was beyond expectations! I felt completely relieved to know our pets, plants, and house were well cared for and secure. Thank you so much Cassidy! We will absolutely ask you to care for our family again next time we’re out of town.”

“Laney was great. After telling her we would have limited access to internet or cell phone service she still sent pictures to update us on the visits she was making. It was nice knowing someone who loved animals was coming to spend time with our cat while we were gone. She went above what we expected and will use her again. I highly recommend her if you need someone to watch your fur babies while you are gone.”

“Kat is absolutely the best! She watched my kitties for a week and did an awesome job! How do I know? I know when I return from a trip and my cats walk casually up to me like saying “oh, are u back?” That they received excellent care and are very happy. I have returned from trips and the cats run at me with wild eyes so I knew they were well loved. Kat sends pics and updates every day which I loved. I felt so good knowing my babies were with someone that truly loves cats/animals.”

About: I’ve had dogs all my life and it seemed the family dogs always gravitated toward me. I can’t imagine life without them! I’ve been caring for other’s dogs ever since I got my drivers license. The first dog I watched for a family (a beautiful Alaskan husky) had diabetes and required diabetic shots twice a day. Even though it hurt to have to give him shots, I loved having the opportunity to care for dogs other than my own. Since then I’ve had the opportunity of being the go-to dog watcher for several families with several different dog (and cat) breeds. I will make every effort to give your dog the same care that I was able to give Skyler and the rest of the dogs I’ve had the great fortune of watching and taking care of. There’s not many things that give me more joy than spending time with dogs. I currently work from home Monday and Friday so in addition to the weekend, it opens up availability to be present for the doggie. I’m in the office Tuesday - Thursday but available for morning/evening. I have a fenced in backyard and ample space inside the house to make your dog comfortable. I can crate if needed, but also have rooms that can function as “dog” rooms for the periods when I need to leave the house. I have my own Belgian Malinois, who mostly does her own thing. :)

“Danielle did amazing with our dog Belle. She also was very kind and patient when I met her! I highly recommend her to anyone needing a caretaker for their dog!”


“My cats loved her and she did a wonderful job”


“Josie was great! She kept the communication going while we were out of town so we were always kept up to date on Wrigley and if she had any questions or anything. She knew how to introduce herself to him so he felt comfortable while we were gone, and that was the most important part for us. We'll definitely be using Josie again next time we need a dog walker”


About: I’ve been around animals my whole life and am an avid animal lover! From dogs and cats to bunnies and reptiles. Breed nor age matters! I’ve been around dogs as small as Chihuahuas to dogs as big as Great Pyrenees. I also have experience with dogs as young as 2 months and dogs as old as 18 years. I am able to provide what your pet needs, including; nail trimming, brushing, bathing, medication, and more**. In my hands, your dog will receive the upmost respect and care. **I cannot provide these if your dog responds aggressively as it could lead to injury. This is for the safety of everyone, including the animal. I’m a full time art teacher that commutes 40 minutes to and from work. That means pick-ups and drop-offs for boarding will occur in the early evenings (around 4:30 - 5:00pm) unless otherwise specified. While I may not be home during the day, my partner is, and can let your dog out to potty/stretch on a regular basis. When I am home, your dog will receive lots of love and attention! During the summer, I am home all day! There are also a few times throughout the year when I am home for the holidays (like winter break or spring break). We can discuss pick-up and drop-off times if you end up needing boarding during one of these days. I have a 4ft chain-link fenced in backyard with lots of shade and running room. I have two dogs who are dog friendly and would love to play with your fur baby OR I can keep them separated. I can crate your dog (we have kennels or you can provide one). I also have a spare bedroom if your dog is not comfortable with other animals (we do have 3 cats) and is not crate trained. Otherwise, your dog will be loose in the house and allowed on furniture. There is a park right across the street from the house, perfect for walks or playing fetch. We also have a kiddy pool if your dog likes to play in water! Lastly, we are a take a cruise in the car kind of family, so if your dog loves car rides, they’ll get to tag along. I am the kind of individual who follows a schedule if provided one, so if your dog has a routine or special needs, please let me know :)
