“Joey was amazing as a dog walker and house sitter. We were gone for 10 days and he totally held down the fort! Our dog bonded well with him. Joey did a great job of taking care of our cherished family member and home. We’ll use him again and highly recommend.”


About: I've worked with all different kinds of animals, from domestic cats an dogs to guinea pigs,rabbits,lizards, etc. Family an friends have relied on me to walk, feed & bathe their pets. Along with grooming, nail trimming, etc. I work at a veterinary clinic with that being said I am available on weekdays anytime after 5:00pm and weekends anytime. Pet care fits my schedule great its what I was born to do working with animals. I have a huge yard to run around in with your critter, along with 1 dachshund to keep you oets company. If your pet needs to be crated or have medication, etc. I have plenty of room an chalk boards to remind of times for feeding an medication if needed. I currently work at a veterinary office. So pet care works into my routine on a daily. I have 1 dog of my own that I care for and make sure he is updated on shots, etc. I am able to pretty much do alot of things for pets, like nail trims, give medications if need be, alone with just walking the dogs etc. I care for animals anyways youd like your pretty to be cared for, if you pet needs medication, or certain play times etc. I'm more then happy to do so, I feel walking or having that one on one time with the pets is very important.

About: I grew up with multiple pets throughout my life and it was always stressed to me that pets are family. I have experience with a wide variety of pets, including cats, dogs (small and large), rabbits, hamsters, chinchillas, fish, etc. I have also cared for a number of senior pets and special needs pets. I am comfortable administering medication and can closely monitor behavior to make sure you have peace of mind while your pet is in my care. I am a teacher on summer vacation, so my days are extremely flexible. I am happy to help with whatever times you may need for your pet, including morning feeding or walks or nighttime check-ins. I treat every pet as if it is my own, and I have always considered my pets family. Your pet runs your house, and I am there to help them however they need and to give you peace of mind knowing that your companion is being well taken care of.

About: I have been providing dog and cat care for friends and family over 30 years. I am very attentive to animal emotional and physical needs. I am currently unemployed and available at any time with reasonable advanced notice. I can do overnight or day sitting as well as potty break/walking visits. I have plenty of outdoor space to take pets on leashed walks. I also enjoy taking dogs on nature hikes with difficulty based on age and ability.

“Shauna was wonderful with Ozzie. She came to our campsite and took care of him while we went out. She was flexible with her hrs. and came 2 days in a row. He gets very nervous whenever I leave and she was able to keep him calm and happy. He generally takes a while to warm up to people and he took to her immediately. I would highly recommend her.”


About: Growing up I’ve always had a pet, whether it was a dog, cat, reptile, hamster, bunny, etc. The past experience I have is from ages 10 weeks-12 years old. I’m up for any task and have no trouble walking dogs who pull. I use a harness for one of my pups and he is always comfortable walking with me. I currently work M-F but have a flexible schedule. I have two dogs of my own but have help with them. Can always adjust as needed. I treat every pet the way I would want someone to treat my pet. I don’t neglect and I listen to rules very carefully. I’m a very trustworthy person and can even send hourly updates on your furry friend!

“Can’t thank Sari enough. She came in on short notice, was so genuine and friendly, quick to respond and helped my dog go through her first ever heat cycle. My dog having her dog period was very unexpected and I could not be more grateful for having someone like Sari. She sent pictures and was very caring for my animals. Would highly recommend to anyone in need of pup sitting services. She should be on the front cover of Rover magazine if there was one. THANK YOU!!”


About: I’ve taken care of dogs of all age and sizes since I was a child. Neighbors, friends, and family have relied on me to do anything their pet needs while they’re away. In the future I’m looking to take a dog training course and slow transition into that as a full time job. Every morning I wake up and immediately tend to the dogs and let them outside to use the bathroom and play around, then we come Inside to eat breakfast to start the day. We go outside about 3x daily to potty and play. I have a big privacy fenced in yard for play time. I have 4 dogs of my own. However I typically do not let them converse with my boarding dogs unless known that they are friendly.
