“Our dog gets very nervous being with new people, but he took to Maeve right away! She spent lots of snuggle time with him and we really appreciated her attentiveness and reliability. And he’s happy to have a new friend!”
About: I’ve taken care of multiple dogs since I was 14. I was a free-lance dog walker for my neighborhood so I’ve had plenty of experience with many kinds of dogs! I go to school part-time so I’ll be able to take care of your pups as long as I’m not in school. I enjoy taking dogs on walks as I enjoy being active. I have plenty of toys to keep your pups busy as well as my own dog, Tucker, to keep them company! I will play with them and give them as much attention and love as I can.

About: I’ve gained hands-on experience caring for a puppy and two orange cats with varying needs, including medical care and anxiety management. I’m comfortable with medications, special routines, and recognizing individual pet personalities. My experience with an anxious cat taught me to be patient and observant while creating calm, structured environments. I treat every pet like family and keep owners updated throughout their time away. I work remotely Monday-Friday on a flexible but structured schedule (7am-4pm or 10am-6pm), which allows me to reliably fit pet care into my work day. Remote work means I can provide local visits and midday check-ins, and I’m particularly well-suited for pets with medical needs or anxiety that benefit from frequent attention and stability. I’m detail-oriented, punctual, and follow your instructions precisely. I am especially attuned to anxious pets or those with medical needs. I watch for common behavioral and health changes, communicate regularly with updates, and treat every pet like family.

“We met Katie for a meet and greet and scheduled a dog walk together. I have 2 rescues who are both anxious and get nervous with new people.

I will definitely be booking with Katie again.”
About: I have had pets since I was a baby. I had two rabbits who I took care of during my childhood, such as feeding and brushing. When I was around 10 years old we adopted my current dog, who I walk and play with frequently. My family often petsits other animals as well, mostly dogs. I have helped with catering to these dogs needs since I was 9 and have always loved getting the opportunity to take care of them! These experiences have taught me the responsibility necessary to actually take care of animals. I am available to pet sit the entire week except on Mondays. I am a very flexible person and do not mind cancellations or late notices. I have a large yard my dog loves to play in, along with The Canal Trail as a 2 minute walk away from my house. I often take toys from our large toy box to go out into the yard and play with him.

Hayley is a fabulous dog walker. My dog warmed up to her quickly which usually isn’t the case, and she is very reliable and quick to respond. I will absolutely continue having her walk our dog in the future and would recommend her to my friends and family if they lived in the area.
Midori was attentive and so conscientious with our pups, putting me at ease while we were away. She is not only a professional with communication and procedures, she is really lovely companion and caregiver for our beloved family members. We are so grateful for the care she provided.
