“Melissa is exceptionally caring and had a wonderful approach with our Great Dane, Kota. She left the perfect level of details after each of her visits and was thoughtful about our dogs knee (recovering from surgery) while still giving her plenty of time to play. Our dog was clearly comfortable and happy to see Melissa each visit- which is saying a lot for an anxious pup! Could not recommend Melissa more highly!!”
“Patricia is amazing! She instantly understood my concerns about Bentley having just lost both of her people in a very short amount of time. Patricia is a cat person and quickly brought Bentley back to her place.. So grateful!”
“Stephanie is a very knowledgeable pet owner so took great care of our 2 dogs and 1 cat. She was great in her communication before and during our care period, Will for sure use her again!!”
“Heidi did such a wonderful job with our cats and our dog, that I’m 99% sure the puppy was disappointed when I came home. I wouldn’t hesitate to hire her again (and look forward to doing so soon!)”
About: I became a dog lover when I was 6 and my family got our first bulldog Rufus (best dog breed in my opinion). I’ve taken care of my own dog and friends and family members’ dogs that have come in all different breeds and sizes. I’m in college currently so my schedule Monday-Thursday is based around my classes. On Tuesdays and Thursdays I’m available after 2:30 and on Mondays and Wednesdays I’m available after 5. I have all day availability Friday-Sunday. I have some flexibility in the morning Mon-Thursday if that’s needed. I will listen to your pet’s body language to make them as comfortable as possible when meeting them and assure that they are safe and secure before leaving.
About: I have my own little dog that I take care of, and I am excited to take care of more. I am care giver at a health care center. Right now I am working on call as a nursing assistant in Apple Valley. I make my own schedule therefore I am free different days of the week. One week I could be free everyday and then I next I’m only free for a couple of days. My mom recently got a new fence for the backyard so our dog can roam freely without us having an heart attack that she’s going to run away 😂
About: I am a vet assistant and a vet tech student, I have experience in dog walking and taking care of cats and dogs. I love animals so much which is why I am in the veterinary medical field but I still would love to provide help and care to animals in other ways I can! As a pet owner myself I want to give the same care and love I would like my pets to receive. I’m currently going to school and I am working part-time but I am available in the mornings and evenings, weekends I am available any time. I do not allow dogs to be off-leash even if owner is okay with it, I like to have knowledge of the dog’s behavior towards other dogs, people, bikes, cars, etc, to make sure I am walking them in a safe and comfortable area. At home visits I always make sure there is nothing on sight that can be harmful for pets and always double or triple check that doors are locked so there are not escape accidents. I like to keep owners updated with lots of pictures of videos and any information necessary for their own peace of mind and to ensure trust.
About: I’ve spent my entire life caring for animals of all ages, sizes, and personalities. My background includes hands‑on experience with dogs and cats—from energetic puppies and kittens to seniors who need a gentler, slower pace. I’m comfortable with feeding routines, medication support, behavior observation, and creating a calm, positive environment for every pet. I hold degrees in Animal Science and Equine Science, which give me a strong foundation in animal behavior, welfare, physiology, and safe handling practices. Whether I’m caring for a tiny kitten, a senior dog, or a 1,200‑lb horse, I bring the same level of compassion, professionalism, and respect to every animal. I currently work part‑time, which gives me plenty of flexibility for pet care. I’m available most weekdays for walks, drop‑ins, and check‑ins, and I keep my evenings and weekends open for boarding and longer stays. My schedule allows me to adjust to each pet’s routine, whether they need midday potty breaks, consistent feeding times, or extra attention throughout the day. I update my calendar regularly so you always know when I’m open Trust is built through reliability and transparency. I provide updates, photos, and clear communication so you always know how your pet is doing. I’m punctual, consistent, and committed to making sure every pet feels safe, understood, and cared for. My goal is for you to feel completely at ease while you’re away.
“Jona did a wonderful job of caring for my kitty when I was out of town. I was nervous to leave her because she needs insulin shots twice a day. Jona handled it like a pro. She shared cute pictures and updates of how she was doing which made me feel much for comfortable leaving her. I would absolutely rebook Jona! 😃”
“Ann was so good with Bernie and Samira!! She sent a ton of pictures and left US a thank you for letting her care for them while we were away! I could tell they were very comfy with Ann and she was great at taking care of their needs! I am so grateful!”
“Eden was fantastic taking care of my furballs while I was gone! They loved him and came out to visit every time which is very rare for one of my kitties. I felt great relief knowing they were being taken care of everyday.”

Sam was great! I needed drop ins for my little dogs while on vacation and she took great care of them. She advocated for the dogs when my house seemed a little cold, sent detailed reports and lots of photos that was much appreciated. Came home to happy pups! Would highly recommend

She left the perfect level of details after each of her visits and was thoughtful about our dogs knee (recovering from surgery) while still giving her plenty of time to play.

Rachel is very sweet to Charlie! She scheduled a meet and greet for us before her first drop in visit, so she could meet Charlie and I could show her all of his things. On her visits, she sent photos of Charlie on his walk and played fetch and hang out with him for the whole 30 minutes. She brings such a calming presence for my high energy doggo! She is awesome!
Pickles was well cared for by Stephanie. She let my cat be comfortable with interactions, using treats to reassure her. I received updates each day on her food intake and litter box usage. I will be booking Stephanie again. Stephanie was understanding and flexible with my weather delayed departure.
Geshanna was fantastic and treated Duke like he was her own, the entire long weekend we required her services. Sent many pictures and videos of her with Duke, and was incredibly communicative the entire time we were away. We WILL be having her take care of Duke again if we are away, and I will do everything in my power to recommend and referred her to as many people as I can! If I could rate her more than 5 stars I would!
Ivy took great care of our two girls! Everything was communicated extremely well and it is clear she truly cares about the animals. Her notes were detailed and I love all the fun pictures. Having Ivy take care of Bella and Gracie gave me peace of mind during our 2 week trip.
