“Alison was amazing as our house sitter and cat sitter while we were on a camping trip for our two kitties. This was our second time having a house sitter and the peace of mind we had was such a comfort. Even though we didn’t have reliable service she checked in with us, gave us updates and pictures and even a video of our shy kitty warming up to her for some pets. We will absolutely rebook with Alison if we need to again in the future. And while I had noticed she said something in her bio about cleaning up after her stays, the feeling of coming home after a long day of driving to a nice and tidy home was really appreciated.”
About: Hi! My name is Murron :) I have 10+ years of dog care experience; I grew up with labrador retrievers from all stages of life and I also house sat for local families’ dogs for a few years. The big boy in the pictures is Jasper, he’s 8 years old and my family’s 4th child :) He has epilepsy and had a double knee replacement when he was 4 years old. The little rascal who looks like a mini Jasper is Bodhi, or Bo for short. He’s my parent’s newest addition to the family and he’s such a crazy lil man, yet extremely clever in his own ways :) I’m very knowledgeable about different breeds and temperament. I love high energy pups; my history of care encompasses everything from grooming, walking, basic command training, and exercising. I am a server and bartender, so my schedule is pretty open during the day. Mornings are optimal, but early afternoons are okay as well. As a cat momma of one at the moment, I always have a very clean house that is spacious and has a lot of room for her zoomies and high energy moments. My roommate has a frenchie puppy so I help out with her care a lot as well.

About: I've had fur-babies for as far back as I can remember. I am currently without a companion, so I'm looking to love on any pet I can. I'm currently unable to host more furry friends in my own home, but I am happy provide walks, drop-ins, and over-nights in your home for as long as you need. I'm currently working part-time from home, so I have plenty of time to make your pet a priority. I'm available every day of the week. Your pet's safety is my first priority. You know your pet and you home best, and I will honor the way you know works. Whether in the house or on a walk, your rules are my rules.
About: I have experience with training puppies as I grew up in a family that bred dogs and have a passion for making animals happy! I have 5 of my own and would spend all my free time with them if I could. I currently work full time so my availability is based around my work schedule. Most evenings are free for me, as well as most weekends. I have a partially fenced yard with leads for dogs to use and live in a very quiet, secluded neighborhood far from the hustle and bustle of the city.
