About: I grew up raising dogs from puppies to senior dogs, volunteering in shelters and have spent my life reading their body language, energy and needs. I specialize in calm, structured walks that help dogs feel safe, confident and balanced-especially those who struggle with anxiety or over stimulation. I don't rush, overwhelm, or force; I lead with patience, consistency, and quiet confidence so a dog can relax and trust the walk. I also have deep experience caring for senior dogs. I recently said good bye to our family Weimaraner Lexi, who taught me the importance of gentleness, awareness and dignity in every stage of a dog's life. Whether your dog needs confidence building, a steady routine, or thoughtful care tailored to their age and temperament, I treat every dog as an individual-never just another booking. Right now, I'm primarily available on weekends, with some flexibility for weekday evening walks or drop-ins. I'm intentional about my schedule so every visit stays calm, unrushed, and consistent-especially important for anxious dog who rely on routine. My availability will be expanding in the near future as I transition towards pet care as a primary focus. This means increased weekday flexibility and priority scheduling for repeat clients who value long-term consistency. I'll always be clear and upfront about availability before confirming a booking, so there are no surprises-for you or your dog. My home is calm, structured, and safety-focused. Dogs are cared for with clear routines, close supervision, and attention to body language and stress levels. I prioritize consistency so dogs feel secure and know what to expect. This is the same standard I follow with my own Doberman, who receives structured daily walks, routine feedings, constant access to fresh water, and regular training, trust-building exercises, and enrichment puzzles. I keep the environment clean, low-stress, and intentional, so dogs can relax and feel confident while in my care.

Whether that is going on my paddleboard with me going swimming walks playing at the park, interacting with other dogs or me and my friends you can guarantee that your dogs are in the best of care I’m fully available every minute of every day I love animals I love learning their unique needs, and what specific things work for them and I’m more than willing to adapt to how they run I have live cameras if your dogs or cats ever stay here I’m reliable I have dogs and animals of my own and friends that I also take care of
“Ashley was an amazing dog and cat sitter. My dog is special needs with his disease and has high anxiety but she made him feel safe. I will be using her services again. I have never left my baby with a sitter before and she made me feel comfortable with great communication and pics of my boy through out the day. I was thrilled with the level of care and attention she gave him and was able to give him meds right on time!”


About: I am a dog owner myself with my little 2month old puppy, our home is filled with love and fun. I have three kids who know how to tire dogs out! I would love to be able to help others who require it if it’s just a day or two or even a week. Your puppy or dog will jot be lonely. I work from home so I will be here at all times.

We have a backyard that is proper set up to ensure the safety of our furry little animal and to make sure they do not escape.
“Ethan was an excellent sitter for our dog while we were out of town!! He responded quickly to messages and handled a last-minute booking change with ease. He kept us updated throughout the stay, which gave us peace of mind :)”

“Natalie was Great! She was super responsive to our messages before and during pet sitting. Sent us great updates and the cutest pet news flash at the end to sum up Chief's time! SO CUTE!! Also, she is the only person who has managed to break through Chief's skeptical exterior, and he seemed to really like her! She's definitely got a magic about her! Thank you again Natalie!”

“This was our dog's first overnight stay with a new sitter, and Michelle did an amazing job! She was caring, attentive, and made both us and our pup feel completely comfortable. We couldn’t be happier and would highly recommend her!”

About: I have loved and taken care of animals since age 10 - when I welcomed my first bunny for my 10th birthday. Since then I have also taken care of hamsters, birds, dogs, and cats. I am an expert in providing an environment where they can be comfortable and profusely loved, but I do not forget firm discipline where necessary. I am fully available on weekends for walks, drop-ins, and house sitting but I do require at least a 2-day notice. Additionally, I am available for walks and drop-ins all weekday evenings, anytime after 7 PM. At my client's home I have the best practices of pet- and property-handling honed down, which will keep both the client's pet(s) and property (as well as myself) safe and happy at all times. I trust that I will be provided with all the information I need to satisfy any expectations from my hosts during my visits. At my own home, I have two cats, but I have enough space and accommodations to keep my client's pet(s) separated and happy as necessary.
About: I have been the proud pup parent to a beagle and currently a shitzu. Patience is well built in to my nature! I enjoy taking dogs out on walks, cuddles on the couch, and watching explore my fenced yard. A natural dog lover at heart, I have hosted short term and long term stays and they are always happy to return (sometimes they don’t even want to leave!) I work from home and able to provide loving care and supervision. I’ll ensure your dog is well taken care of in my air conditioned home where they can choose which dog bed to lounge on, toy to play with, front window ledge to sit on & watch the birds or chase squirrels in my yard. I will care for your pet as my own. I’d like a clear understanding of known allergies, fears (vacuum), anxious behaviour & feeding routine. I’ll follow your dog rules as best as possible, but my dog is used to sharing lots of treats lol
About: I have always been involved in pet care. When I was younger I worked in the pet care section of pet smart and now I work at a pet boarding hotel! I am Pet CPR and First Aid certified. I have 2 dogs and a fish, and have previously owned Guinea pigs, cats, hamsters, and birds! I am currently working part time at a boarding hotel and volunteering at a veterinary clinic which means I have tons of time to spend with your fur babies!! My visits will be specialized to whatever you need! Whether that’s increased activity by going on more walks or lounging on the couch cuddling!! Everything will be according to what your pet wants.

About: I’m like every other sitter. We love sitting cause we love animals. Your fur baby is my fur baby and they will be treated like family. Pet care fits right in with my daily and weekly routine. If I don’t have a dog by my side it a sad day. Have owned dogs for 40+ years The way I care for pets either mine or yours is attention, affection, lots of activities and peaceful rest times. Always play and rewarding vocal tones.
About: I’ve had experience with dogs from puppyhood to seniors, and every age in between. I will follow any special regimen to the letter to make sure your fur baby gets the best care when you can’t be there. From feeding schedules to walks, playtime, cuddles and potty breaks, your pet will be in capable hands. I work full time (9-5) Tuesdays through Saturdays, which will provide a normal morning/evening feeding and potty routine when you are away. My days off are Sundays and Mondays, and can provide all day attention to your pet if needed. In your home, your rules apply. If your dog gets crated at night or when no one is home, or if your dog has free range and is allowed to get up on furniture or the bed, then we abide by those rules. If your pet is in my home and requires crating, then you must provide the crate. I offer a free range home, pets allowed on furniture unless you specify otherwise. The best place to cuddle is on the couch!
“I would feel comfortable leaving my dogs with her again. I got updates and lots of pictures. The pups seemed happy and in good health when I came home and the house was just as clean as we left it. 10/10”

About: Hi there! I started my animal care career over 10 years ago when I was asked to watch over 21 horses by myself at the age of 16! Since then I have been caring for people's cats, dogs, lizards and everything in between! I am certified as a pet sitter and have my pet first aid. I pride myself in being overly clean, attentive and communicative during my stays. Pet care is currently my full time job so your fur babies will be my top priority! From walks to overnight care, I promise to give them the same love that you would! Pets are family! So I make sure to treat every poof ball I encounter with as much consideration I give to my own family members. It's also why I became certified in first aid and pet sitting as soon as possible so I can ensure the best experience for your pets
About: I loved working with animals since childhood, tending to goats, sheep, horses, and chickens! I have a lot of patience when it comes to animals, especially dogs and cats!

I am available for multiple walks a day or in house sitting, just let me know what you’re looking for and I am happy to accommodate! Looking forward to meeting you and your pets!! I love living an active lifestyle so I’d love to incorporate dog walking into my everyday activity! As of now, my schedule is open throughout the week during the day! If I’m hosting pets, I have a fenced in yard for them to play in. If I am pet sitting then I will make sure I am following the guidelines set up by the owner.
