“It was my pup’s first time hanging with Wendy & we are very happy with her warmness & communication! I especially love the videos & pictures as it gave me ease knowing she was in good hands :)”
“Robyn is a very straightforward and no nonsense kind of person, I was confident in leaving her in charge of caring for my dog, Gracie and my other smaller critters: a couple of indoor birds, a chicken and some fish. She was also upfront and honest about her availability for pet sitting; I would hire her again to care for my animals.”
“Wonderful experience with Cess! I received several photos of Apollo and he loved the time they spent outside together. Definitely would rebook 🙌🏼”
“Ash is a great communicator and excellent care provider. My cat has a number of different medications and she was able to easily provide essential care. It was a relief to know my cat was in good hands while I was out of town.”
“I highly recommend Ronda! They provided excellent care for our shy kitties, ensuring not only basic needs but also working on gaining the kitties’ trust (and our kitties don’t trust easily), giving them affection and playtime. Ronda even helped us by cleaning the kitties’ hairball oopsies! Reliable, trustworthy, and great communication throughout (I loved the daily pics). Our kitties seemed happy and content upon our return. A purrfect choice for any cat parent(s)!”
“Brent did a great job caring for my cat with special medical needs.”
“This is the second time she has taken care of our cat. Our cat was extremely well taken care of, and we will definitely be having her come out again!”
“Cheryl is amazing and so wonderful with our 6 month old German Shepherd (who is also a land shark/velociraptor ) . So patient with her and gives 100% of her attention to a great experience with each visit. Cheryl has great energy and love for the animals in her care.”
“Jaide did amazing with Eden today! She really made the most of her time with my dog and got some good playtime in, potty breaks food & water and was even kind enough to feed my cat too. Jaide followed directions well & even checked in on things she was unsure of, plus she got some super cute photos of my pup. I will definitely be booking with her again for more drop ins. Thanks Jaide!”

“Michelle is truly a cat whisperer. We left for our honeymoon and needed a sitter. Problem was with all of the people we’d hosted for the wedding, our poor kitty was pretty overwhelmed. When Michelle came over for the meet and greet at first she was shy but after hearing Michelle’s voice she came out of her hiding place and went right into her lap for pets. When we returned, we could tell they’d gotten to spend some good time together because our kitty was calm, happy and didn’t appear to be stressed at all. Will definitely book Michelle again if needed!”
About: Hi! I’m Jordan. (often known by “Jo”) I am well versed in animal welfare. I have 6+ years working in professional dog care. I grew up in a house full of mastiffs. Then began my love of dogs, and ever since, I’ve cared for just about every breed imaginable. My care is special because I take special attention to details others might not notice or understand - my understanding of dog behavior and psychology are especially valuable in caring for the overall well-being of your pet. Some of my experience includes being a kennel technician, dog walker, overseeing doggy-daycare with a blend of many dogs large and small, administering medications, raising puppies, senior dog care, walking dogs with reactivity, accommodating disabled/special needs dogs, — & more. I live on a farm and look after pigs, goats, chickens, ducks and our two livestock guardian dogs. I like to stay busy and I don’t mind getting dirty. I also clean up! :) Overall, the most important thing to me is that the quality of the care I provide equals a positive and uniquely curated experience for each animal I work with. As I no longer have a dog of my own, I extend my ultimate love and service to every animal I care for. I currently work part time at a dog boarding kennel, (Fridays, Saturdays) and am eager to fill up the rest of my week with caring for your pets! Ask me about my availability! Depending on your pet’s specific needs, I’ll adjust my routine accordingly. For example, if your dog is a working breed who might need lots of stimulation, I’d take it outdoors for trail runs and put together scent puzzles to keep them engaged. If your dog is reactive, we’d avoid triggers and keep potential triggers at a safe distance. It’s important to give dogs outside enrichment, and I love staying active. Also, although I am not a trainer, I have ample experience in working with dogs to help modify and correct unfavorable behavior. I use treats and positive reinforcement.
“Julian took great care of our animals and was flexible which really saved us in a pinch! Thank you so much for showing up! 🤗”
About: I’ve cared for dogs since I was 7. I’ve owned many animals. I love dogs of all sizes, and all the slobber and hair that most people think is gross. I love caring for them because they’re so vulnerable and reliant upon us, but yet they love so deeply and are so loyal. I have 2 labs of my own. I’m open to working out a schedule to help who I can, when I can! Currently I have mostly open availability. I have a female chocolate lab, she loves people and animals. She was born March 14, 2022. I also have a male yellow lab, born on Oct 31, 2022. My whole house is pet friendly, and I have a large crate that I keep just in case we have multiple dogs here- it makes feeding time easier. We go on walks multiple times a week, and we spend lots of time outside, we go on road trips to coffee shops and the lake. We also love to lounge on the couch after a long day, or take midday naps.
About: I’ve been training and walking dogs for over 5 years. All breeds & ages ! Ive been around dogs all my life & I worked with Petco for a long time too. I’m really good with dog psychology as well. Pick my brain I’m sure I can help :) I take care of dogs in the afternoon and weekends as I do have a regular job! Saving money for a house ! I make sure everyone is cared for always. I make sure all doors are locked, they are happy feed & loved on with lots of kisses & fetches! I don’t have my own house so I don’t dog sitting in my own house.
“Thank you so much Sarah. We really appreciated all of the photos that you sent providing assurance of how well you were taking care of our luv-kitty!”
About: Interacting with dogs has always been my happy place. When I moved away from my childhood home and my dogs stayed there, I got into pet care so I could spend more time around fur babies. I do have a dog of my own now but I still enjoy providing pet care and spending time with all the pups! I currently work from home and have a flexible work schedule. I pickup care requests pretty regularly and can easily adjust my care times around work. I care for each pet by being thorough with each pet parent about any preferences and specifications you might have for your buddy. I enjoy this job and try my best to be someone owners can trust and someone dogs look forward to seeing!
About: I’ve grown up with pets my whole life. I’ve raised puppies and kittens to our senior loves. They are so special to me and my family. We are excited to start this side endeavor. I just quit my job to stay home to homeschool my daughter. Her and I will be available to love on animals throughout the day. We have a fenced backyard and will be mostly home during school year. We give lots of snuggles and love animals big. My kids love to be around animals and brings us all so much happiness. We keep all food and water accessible. Animals will not be left unattended besides quick school drop off and pick ups. Which, may take on car ride with us
“Jenee was great! She was able to come over for a meet and greet before the scheduled visit which I super appreciated. Will definitely book again :)”
About: I have been watching dogs since I was little. I grew up on a farm and have continued loving and working with animals into my adult years. I have done a lot of dog training and have worked with many professionals as well! I would be more than happy to continue basic commands with positive reinforcement. I love all breeds and love the cuddly ones even more haha! I do require your pups to be up to date on flea prevention and all dogs must have a collar with a name tag ☺️. All dogs must be dog friendly to insure the safety of all pups! When you are leaving your house, please text me with the time your GPS says you will arrive at my house. Message me again when you get here, and I will come out to meet you and your pup. Please do not knock on the door as this will excite any other pups I may be hosting. (If I have not responded to your text with in 5 minutes then yes, please do knock on the door) I will take your dog inside to meet the other dogs This is my full time job there for I will be home almost all of the time with your pups! I do stuff occasionally but my partner will also be here to watch them as well! I have a fully fenced in about 7ft tall. There are kennels for those who need them and a bunch of dog beds/couch’s and soft things to sleep on. All dogs eat separately to insure food safety.
