“Shemoy was absolutely awesome with my boy. She visited him before the day and developed a good connection and interacted with him like she had known him forever. She was incredibly loving with him and I was more comfortable that I thought I would be for our first time away!”
About: I’ve owned different breed’s throughout my life and have had puppies grow up to live long, healthy lives! I’ve also had the pleasure of taking care of small and large dogs with hip displacia, blindness, cancer and other special needs. I’m also a huge health nut, so I’m always researching nutrition topics and things that may benefit the doggies I get to meet! I have an early job in the morning so I’ll be available for very early visits and I’ll be out of work at 1:30pm so I can spend the rest of the of the day and weekends taking care of my fur friends. I’ll keep and eye on them, make sure there is nothing around or anything they can get into to get hurt. On outside walks they always be on a leash and we will avoid big highways.
“Lily was terrific! She was enthusiastic and caring with Bailey and Beau and was a great communicator with us about details concerning our home and the pups needs. Would not hesitate to use her again.”
About: I’ve had different types of dogs since I was young. I’ve trained dogs for all types of reasons. I’m a lover of all pups and can handle your dogs needs. I own a large property specifically for the environment, which is perfect for dogs. I look forward to meeting your doggie and returning a happy pup back to you. Please message for any details. I’m available on weekends and weeknights. I work full time M-F, so weekends are primarily open. While I can do many activities during the work week, I am gone about 8 hours for my primary job. Weeknights and weekends are available. I have a large property with plenty of room to roam. Chickens in the yard (in coop). I have a 6 year old pup of my own that is very docile, loves other animals and gets along with them easily, and is my number two. I don’t have a fence because my dog is perimeter trained. However, I can perimeter train your dog too or walk them on a leash if that is preferred. I plan to add a fence soon and will update this once I do.
“Wendy was absolutely amazing! She took such wonderful care of our dog and our home while we were away for 12 days. She treated our dog like he was her own with lots of love, cuddles and walks! I highly highly recommend Wendy for your pet sitting needs. She is the best!”
About: I’ve had dogs and have been taking care of family and friends dogs and cats for over 10 years. My family has had healthy dogs and dogs that have had medical issues over the years, and so I’m knowledgeable in looking after a dog who has undergone surgery, or who requires special care due to paralyzation. I love all animals and friends have relied on me to house sit their dogs while they go away on trips or vacations for multiple days at a time, sometimes with more than one dog at a time, or additional pets as well, so I’m very experienced in addressing each animals needs, while also sending “daily nanny cam” updates to family and friends so they can see their pets during the day and know that they’re happy and doing well. I work full time, but work from home two out of the five days, so I would be able to take your dog on multiple walks during the day, come over and stay with them for a few hours to play, or even house sit them for the day or several days if you’re going away for a trip. If they require special medication I just ask that you leave me their vitamin/mediation schedule and will administer based on your instructions. My family dog loves to cuddle with me in my lap and when she’s not allowed on the furniture, I’ll often sit on the floor with her so that she can snuggle with me. On the days that I work from home, I would be happy to stay at your home with your pets making sure their needs are met. I love my family pets and will give your pets the same love and affection that I give mine. My animals are allowed to snuggle with me on the couch or on the bed (unless you don’t want them on the furniture/ there are behavioral issues I need to be aware of, I would have them do the same thing). I walk my family dog in the afternoons and play with her throughout the day with dog toys and fetch, but will monitor if it looks like the toy is coming apart and could pose a risk to them. I would follow all instructions left when it comes to house sitting/walks/or day sitting, and would ask for you to share any behavioral issues or triggers with me in advance so I care be aware of them prior to taking your pets out on walks or just in day to day interactions. This allows me to be aware for your pets safety and the safety of any other animals we could come around. If a dog doesn’t seem friendly while we’re on a walk, I would remove your dog from that situation to try and keep them as safe as possible. I will also always reach out to contact you if there are any issues or questions I have about daily activities, medications, etc. When I dog sit at someone’s home, I recognize that I am really there just to look after their pet, so I don’t leave the house for extended periods of time and will actually put on animal shows for the pets to watch, including planet earth, or Disney pet movies. I also like to send updates that I called “nanny cams”, which are photos or videos of your pet playing or just hanging about so that you can have peace of mind that they’re happy and you can also see them while you’re away and receive updates. I will always communicate with you very openly to ensure you have peace of mind while I’m taking care of your pet.
“Our kitten Raven (nickname "Mayhem") gave Jorda a run for her money and she v was up to the task! And she gave our boy his daily meds and kept Jelly the food lover with allergies out of the non-allergy food. And left a beautiful cat pod that she crocheted herself!! I could not recommend Jordan more. My babies were happy and well cared for while we were away.”
About: I’ve dog-sat for families, stayed overnight in their homes, and taken dogs on long walks. I’m reliable, nurturing, and animals naturally feel safe around me. I also take excellent care of my own cat, Willow, feeding her a raw diet and paying close attention to her emotional and physical needs. Willow travels with me wherever I go and is well-behaved and calm in new environments—so I can only accept sits where she is welcome to stay with me. Pet care isn’t just a task to me—it’s something I truly enjoy. I’m flexible and available most days of the week, including mornings, afternoons, and evenings. I like building a rhythm with each pet and can adapt to your schedule easily. I care for pets as if they’re my own—respectfully and attentively. I follow your routines closely, keep their space clean and calm, and make sure they feel safe, seen, and loved. Whether in your home or mine, I create a peaceful environment they can trust.

Seth G.
“Seth has been watching my dog for the past eight years, and I couldn’t ask for someone more dependable, attentive, and genuinely caring. He treats my dog like family, always making sure she’s well-cared for, loved, and happy while I’m away. Seth’s own dog, Ziggy, is the sweetest and loves other dogs. My pup always comes home tired from all the fun they have together! It’s such a comfort knowing she’s not just being looked after, but also enjoying herself. It’s hard to find someone you can trust so completely with your pet, and I feel incredibly lucky to have had Seth be such a consistent and caring presence in my dog’s life. I can’t recommend him highly enough to anyone looking for a dedicated and loving pet caregiver”

Angela D.
“Angela is awesome!! I live with my father and sister, and we had a great big farm dog, named Cookie. Life has caught up to the family, so we haven't had as much time to tend to the dog. When we got Angela to help take care of Cookie, she went above and beyond. Not only did she feed and walk her, but she gave her food and played with her as well. Angela is a very caring, playful, and loving person, and even more so when it comes to her love for animals! My family was trying to get rid of Cookie because we could no longer afford the expenses, sadly. When we told Angela, she took it upon herself to find Cookie a wonderful home among the community, and even took Cookie away for us. If me or my family ever gets animals again, Angela will surely be the first person we will reach out to!”
