About: I have two dogs of my own and experience caring for dogs of all breeds and sizes. Including but not limited to: walking, feeding, bathing, boarding, and more. I work part time currently but my schedule is pretty flexible. I’m off every other weekend and have plenty of time Monday-Friday for your pups! I have a large fenced in yard but do enjoy walking on nearby trails or paths and sometimes going to the nearby dog park. I have housemates who will be around to give your pets extra love and attention as well.

“First meeting with Isabella went great! She was very loving to our dogs, and I feel like she'll take great care of them. Very professional, yet down to earth and very nice. I've already re-booked her for many more walks and stays! I feel like a great weight has been lifted from my shoulders to find someone that is as loving as I am to our fur babies.”

13. Vito C.
“I cannot recommend Vito enough. My dog is a challenging case, but she warmed right up to Vito in no time. He followed all my instructions to a tee and kept me updated while I was away on what my dog was up to. If he had any questions, he was quick to reach out to me for clarification. I've entrusted my dog to him on multiple occasions and he has never disappointed.”


14. Lexi M.

“Lexi is lovely and clearly great with animals. Our pup is looking forward to future visits!”


15. Justin L.

17. Desiree A.
About: My name is Desiree. I love animals and i miss being around them. I love the lessons they are always trying to teach you! I've always had a dog growing up and in the last 4 years i had the pleasure to learn, play, love, have so many adventures and the company of Cooper and Charlie, due to a breakup i no longer have their presence in my day to day life. I’ve so much love to give and would love to share some with your pet! My mom and my aunt run an animal rescue center in Brazil and I've always been taught that every animal deserves to be loved no matter what! I’m so excited to meet your pet and have great adventures and share wonderful moments with them!


18. Jordan F.
“Jordan always cares for my 2 pups and does a wonderful job. He is caring, attentive, and reliable. My dogs are both bigger breeds and he is the only other person I trust to leash walk them and make sure they get their exercise. I fully trust him with feeding, driving them, walking, and giving them lots of love and attention. I fully trust him and would definitely recommend!”


19. Rachel B.
“Rachel is amazing with my dogs! Even my very shy dog warmed up to her quickly. I have trusted her many times to take my dogs out for a walk when I have to stay late at work. I feel comfortable having her in my home when I am not there. My dogs get so excited to see her and I love watching her play with them outside.”


20. Dana G.
About: I’ve always had a dog and/or a cat. I cared for my family dogs all throughout my life and I’ve also cared for fish, birds, lizards, and frogs. I’m ok with snakes too, but don’t have care experience. Currently in a place where we can only have a cat and I miss having a dog so much. I’m in outside sales and I have a lot of experience working in other people’s homes and getting along with their pets. I’ve also done some pet and house sitting on occasion throughout my life, and it’s always been a joy. I just love dogs and cats and I’d be happy to help take care of yours! I have a flexible schedule with no specific routine. I have client appointments at varying times each week, so I can work around that. If you need a consistent schedule, I can plan for that as well. In your home I will be happy to learn your pets routine and boundaries. I can feed, change water, crate, give medicine, play games and take your pet out for potty time. I’m ok with cleaning up puppy pads for puppies only. Adult dogs I am fine with walking or outdoor cleanup.
