About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats since I was 16, but my experience goes back even further. I grew up with both cats and dogs, my mom bred cats when I was young, and I’ve been surrounded by animals my whole life. I now have two cats of my own, Arthur and Alice, and I know how important it is to find someone you can trust with your pets. Whether your dog needs a fun walk or your cat needs calm companionship, I provide gentle, reliable care tailored to their needs. I’m experienced, dependable, and treat every pet like family. I’m a full time college student studying to become a radiologic technologist, and pet care fits perfectly into my schedule. I enjoy building it around my classes and study time. Caring for animals especially spending time with my own two cats, Arthur and Alice is one of my favorite parts of the day. Whether it’s early morning walks or evening drop ins, I genuinely love this kind of work and make time for it because it brings me joy and balance. I always prioritize a calm, safe, and consistent environment whether I’m caring for pets in their home or mine. I follow all client instructions closely and take the time to get to know each pet’s personality and routine. I keep things clean, stick to feeding schedules, and make sure pets feel secure, especially if they’re shy or anxious. I treat every home with respect and every animal like family, offering patient care, gentle handling, and lots of affection.

“Mykala is truly one of the best sitters we have ever had. My family and I were going out of town for a few days and she did so many things while we were away that eased the stress and anxiety of leaving our home and our 2 kitties ❤️ She has the an amazing intuition with our cats and was so patient and soft spoken when she first met our shyest baby. Coco did not end up coming out of hiding while we were away but I was truly thinking he might for the first time ever and that says a lot! Haha. She is patient and kind and loving and I truly would recommend her to anyone who has kitties of their own that need some care while you go out of town. She sent photos and videos of our more social fur baby, Bee. It was so nice to see him playing and to hear his purr. She also took photos of all their food dishes and water and liter box, and just went that extra mile to help me feel as less stress or worry as possible. She is super communicative and responsible and was always really quick to get back in touch. You are awesome Mykala!!!! Thank you so so much! 🥰😺”


About: We know that leaving your pet can be tough! You want them to feel safe and cherished, not lonely or stressed. Our family engages, plays, and pampers your pet, ensuring they remain in their happy zone while you're busy with life or traveling. We aren't just a service; we promise to keep tails wagging! We tend to the unique personalities of each pet, whether they're lively pups or serene seniors. Your pet deserves all the love, and we’re dedicated to making sure they get it. I work from home full time, with my chocolate lab as my constant Supervisor, so your dog will never be alone. We are raising our boys to be responsible young men and they will assist in the care of your pet if you are comfortable with that. Our boys very much enjoy being part of hosting our furry friends. We are happy to host low energy older dogs or make sure your high energy pup gets regular walks and play time. Apologies, no kitties due to allergies. We offer boarding in our home, doggy daycare, drop-in visits, and walking. Open to talking adjusted rates for partial day care versus advertised rate for full day. Contact for more info! We keep frozen lick mats ready as a treat (with parent approval of course). We have a large yard that is fully fenced! We still always provide walks. Your pup will never be lonely with 3 human children to play with and 2 year old chocolate lab companion. However, we do have plenty of spaces to provide separation when needed so no pup gets overstimulated. If you would like drop-in care for your pup in your home, I will be sure to respect all instructions. I am very reliable and have a flexible schedule.

“Took my girl on a really long walk and has really awesome communication.”


About: I’ve grown up around dogs my whole life, so caring for pups feels second nature to me. I’m comfortable with all ages and personalities—whether it’s giving extra patience and gentle care to seniors, keeping up with high‑energy pups, or helping guide puppies as they learn. I treat every dog like my own, with lots of love, attention, and a focus on keeping them happy and safe while you’re away. Pet care is naturally part of my routine—I plan walks, playtime, and cuddles around my day, making sure each dog gets consistent love and attention. I am not working any other jobs currently, so my availability is very open! At my home, dogs enjoy a huge backyard to run and play, plus my friendly golden retriever for company. At clients’ homes, I give constant companionship, care, and attention.

“Lori was great with my lil guy. Got him his meds, took photos at check ins. Would definitely use her again.”


“Cheyenne was an amazing cat sitter!! She committed to helping us out super last minute and had great communication while we were out of town. She sent beautiful photos and updates on each kitty which made me feel confident they were in loving, caring hands. We highly recommend Cheyenne for all of your pet sitting needs! We will definitely be using her services again in the future!”


About: What sets me apart as a sitter is my experience, versatility, and special skills. Not only do I currently dog sit and house sit for three families on an as-needed basis, but I also bring a wealth of experience in handling dogs of all ages and needs. I’m skilled at training puppies, which includes basic obedience and socialization techniques. Additionally, I’m comfortable with senior dogs, providing them with extra care and attention to meet their specific health and mobility needs. My commitment to understanding each dog’s unique personality and routine ensures they feel safe, loved, and well-cared for while you're away. I currently work full-time in a community-based job where I have the flexibility to create my own schedule. I like to tailor my schedule around my needs for the week, with weekends being when I have the most availability. My current families prefer that I stay in their home, and I’m open to doing the same with other families as well When caring for pets in my client's home, I make sure to follow any specific instructions or routines the family has established. I ensure pets are fed on time, given fresh water, and get the appropriate amount of exercise and attention. I also monitor their health, administer any needed medications, and keep the environment safe and clean. If there are specific needs or requests for the pets, I prioritize those to make sure they feel comfortable and cared for in the absence of their owners


About: I grew up with a full range of dog breeds and even horses! Those big pups don't worry me at all! I am runner who enjoys 4-legged company, and I currently use that skill while volunteering at Bradshaw Animal Shelter with their Pit Bull Socialization and Obedience Crew (PB SOC). In addition, I take daily walks along the river just behind my house. I find every dog has a unique personality that deserves patience and understanding, mutual respect is of the utmost importance to me. BONUS: I own an event and portrait photography company, so the check-in photos and selfies are going to be top-notch.

About: I have been around animals my whole life. I have raised puppies to mature adults and eventually seniors. I am very good at using positive reinforcement with them. I’m a little bit knew to cats but I am learning quickly. I care about every animal deeply. I have a full time schedule 8-5 Monday through Friday, but I am happy to walk dogs or do drop into feed and care for your loved ones after that. I am also free most weekends for watching your loved ones as well. I am very respectful about my surroundings. Your loved ones needs are my first priority when I’m with them, and will respect any special requests you have for your loved ones.

She demonstrated extensive knowledge about the breed and offered valuable suggestions regarding playtime and awareness of heat/exercise limitations.
