About: Growing up in the heart of the Midwest, my life has been an extraordinary journey woven with the love and care of countless pets. From the loyal companionship of dogs and the soothing purrs of cats to the curious antics of birds, rabbits, reptiles, and even farm animals, I have raised nearly every pet you can imagine. Nurturing these animals has been more than just a hobby—it's been a calling. I find an unmatched sense of connection and fulfillment in their presence, often feeling closer to animals than to people. Their trust, unique personalities, and unconditional affection inspire me daily. My passion for raising, nurturing, and spending time with animals isn’t just a part of who I am; it’s my life’s purpose. I dream of transforming this deep-seated love into my main source of income, building a career that allows me to dedicate all my time and energy to the creatures that bring me the greatest joy. I have plenty of time for your pets needs, with full availability to watch your animals & cater to their unique needs, with love & care. I am super open to watching your cat fur babies in my home. I have one dog in the home who is acquainted with cats and your cats will be kept separate at all times.
About: I have had dogs all my life, most of which were rescued. I also took a class from victoria stillwell on her website designed to teach you how to understand your dog. I adore all dogs and love to learn their different personalities. I never back away from a challenging behavior because I know alot of dogs have experienced trauma just like alot of people. I work full and my schedule can change week to week but my boss try's to keep it consistent. I typically work 7-6 monday through Wednesday 8-4 on Friday's. Anytime this changes I will immediately contact you and work something else out if it conflicts with specific requested times (such as dog walking). I walk my husky each morning before work regardless of what time I go in so you can be sure I will MAKE the time if I have to. :) I will follow any and all rules/schedules you have for your dog. I will also assist with training if asked. If I am house sitting I will do my utmost to keep the house and its schedule the same as you do when you are home. I am happy to train, play, or just hang out with your doggy pal.
“Bethanie was super responsive, professional and left no room for worry in the caretaking of our five four-legged kids while we attended our daughter's wedding in Michigan! She was also kind enough to help tech-challenged me with the Rover app as well as sending photos during our time away?. Very impressed and grateful!”
About: I had a cat growing up but the last 5 years I have had two large, fluffy mainecoon cats that’s are my whole word but at every high maintenance! I would be able to check on dogs and cats after early in the morning it or after work ends for me around 4:00. I have most Friday’s off so I have flexible, long weekends! My own animals are not outdoor cats but we have collars with trackers in case they ever run outside! But luckily they never have 😄 We are very careful about not leaving food out that’s toxic for them to eat like chocolate 🍫
“We have booked with Abby several times and always had a good experience! Our pets are comfortable with her and she does a great job communicating how the visit went.”

About: Having grown up with pets, I have a lifelong passion for animal care. From a young age, my siblings and I took on the responsibility of feeding, bathing, walking, playing with, and cleaning up after our pets. This experience taught me the importance of attentive and loving care. Additionally, my neighbors entrusted me with their beloved pets when they’ve gone on vacation. I’ve experience with rabbits, have one currently named Ms Bunny, she is eight. I had a guinea pig, named Master Splinter that lived to be 6. Kept and maintained a fish tank in my mid to late 20’s, contained lots of neon tetra, ghost shrimp, and a dwarf gourami! During the school year I work at my local elementary, I am an early riser and always available for morning walks or drop in visits! During the summer I have full availability to ensure loving care for your pets! My love for animals motivates me to ensure they receive the attention and care they deserve. Rest assured, your furry friends will be well cared for under my watch. I am happy to care for your pets in their home where they are most comfortable. I love going for walks, playing with toys, and/or lounging around when it’s quiet.
About: i’ve taken care of puppy’s as well as senior puppy’s of my own as well as working at a doggy date care taking care of all breeds, ages, etc! I currently work full time on weekdays so i would be available after 5 sometimes after 4. Weekends i would be available any time as needed! I have a crate if needed. I also have dogs of my own so your pup will not be bored! I take my dogs on long walk daily and play with them outside everyday!
About: I began my career in the veterinary field as a veterinary technician, where I discovered my passion for working with animals, though I soon realized that the veterinary path wasn’t the right fit for me. Determined to stay in the animal care industry, I pursued formal education at a dog training college, where I lived and studied intensively for 10 months. This experience provided me with a strong foundation in dog training. For the past two years, I have worked as the Head Trainer at a boarding facility, further honing my skills and expertise. So I’m pretty lucky because I am a professional dog trainer and I get to makes my own hours so availability will not be an issue I provide care with the upmost respect, privacy and with as much communication as they are looking for. I will be sending photo/video updates daily keep open lines of communication and flexibility with schedules
