“William was great. He dropped in on my 3 dogs, sent pics, and updates during the weekend. I felt very comfortable that my dogs were being looked after by him. I would definitely recommend William and will be contacting him for future drop ins.”

“Lindy is amazing and took great care of our pets over a long weekend. We loved the visit photos and the updates. We definitely recommend and will be using in the future.”

“Jessica was wonderful! She checked in on my cat a couple of times while I was away, making sure the litter box was clean and giving my cat some love and attention in my absence. I really appreciated the updates and cute pictures she sent after each visit — it gave me such peace of mind. I’ll definitely be using Jessica again for future drop-ins!.”

“Amy was great with my cat! He’s very needy and loves people and she took time to interact with him and give him attention. I highly recommend her, everything was great he was fed on time and seems happy!”

“Allison was absolutely wonderful! This was our first time having a sitter and it won't be our last. She made sure to keep me updated at every visit, making our time away from our girl a little easier.”

“Sky was extremely responsive and followed all my requests for my cat who required special attention, a variety of foods, and medication administration multiple times per day. She kept me updated on his progress at each visit and even made an extra visit to check on him on a day I was concerned.”

“Tatyana did a great job checking in on our cat while we vacationed. She checked each day and helped our pet remain calm through thunderstorms. Would recommend and choose again for vacations! Thank you Tatyana.”

About: I’ve taken care of animals of every kind for many many years. I understand their needs and honestly enjoy make their lives better. I’ve also run a rescue over the years for abused animals. After prior coordination I can be available at any time needed. I can be a regular pet walker and feeder at the same time everyday or I can be of service as needed. I can take care of your pets needs in whichever aspects are needed. I can do feeding and walking. Or just some play time and exercise. In clients home.
About: my family has had a dog for 11 years! I was the designated walker and always loved getting out with the pup and hitting the pavement in the mornings or after school. I work full time, so this is mostly just to get out and get some exercise in before or after I get off work for the day. on walks I am stern but never mean if a dog is misbehaving. I prefer leash trained dogs, of course, and love all types of animals :)
About: I’ve taken care of dogs since I was a kid. Friends, family, and neighbors have relied on me to watch over their dogs while they were away. My whole family loves animals, and we currently have 3 dogs: a dachshund, a corgi, and a golden doodle. We take them everywhere with us! For the last decade, I have been working remotely, giving me the flexibility to drop by and attend to your dog. Whether it’s a walk, a quick check in, or some playtime, I’m available! I understand the challenges of balancing work away from home with pet ownership. That’s why a reliable person to keep your dog, engaged throughout the day is invaluable. There’s no greater joy than returning home to a happy and eagerly awaiting furry friend! I have 18 acres and a fenced-in back yard for my dogs. The golden Doodle (Cora Bell) loves everyone, the Dachshund (Dutton) loves to play, and the corgi (Waffles) will run the property until she tuckers out!
About: I grew up with several different kinds of animals at home. My first job was at a pet store and I have continued to love caring for animals since then. I've taken care of friends and neighbors pets for several years. I am comfortable with any pet, as long as they have a good temperament. I am a fourth grade teacher, so my schedule is completely open in the summer. During the school year, my availability is mostly limited to weekends. At my home I have a fenced in backyard and two high energy dogs ( a Dutch Shepherd and a Corgi) who would love a buddy to play with. I also have three children, ages 8-15, who like to help take care of our furry friends. At your home you can expect your pet to be cared for just like you were there, whether they need to be walked or just let out and played with while you are away. Dogs must be crate trained for boarding or day care at my home. This allows me to make sure my pets and yours are safe when I leave the house.

About: I’ve loved animals for as long as I can remember. I’ve volunteered with shelters and own three of my own for the last 10 years. I’m currently working from home and hoping to get out of the house for a bit by doing drop in visits or dog walks. I’m available to board dogs as well so long as any furry guest gets along with the dogs already in the house. I’m comfortable administering medication so long as instructions are given. I’m certified in canine CPR. Im happy to cater to the needs of your dog and follow any instructions you provide. As im working from home, im available nearly all the time except for a few virtual meetings during the week. Our normal routine is a short walk in the morning, they hang out with me while I work, maybe a walk or a game at lunch, more work from home, then free in the evening for movie nights/parks/bite to eat somewhere dog friendly. I have a fenced yard with a doggy door to the back. I have also converted my office into a dog room with space for extra crate if that’s what is preferred. Animals are allowed on furniture at the owners discretion. I recognize all owners do things a bit differently and I know how worrisome it can be to leave them with a stranger so I want to put your mind at ease by conforming my care to how you prefer.
About: I have tons of experience in doggy day care, and my husband and I moved to the area 3 years ago. He is active duty ARMY, so he can be gone a lot, and what better way to fill the time than with furry friends! I will love your dog like my own. I go to the gym in the morning, than I am home the rest of the day! We will have plenty of time for walks and play time and I hope you meet you and you furry friend soon! I am getting my masters degree in nutrition from an online university so I do all of my work from home! It is the perfect home for your doggie too! I will love your pet as you do! Walk and feed in the morning and then feed and a walk after dinner plus the dog gets free roam in and out of the house because we have a fully fenced in yard I’m a stay at home mom with two little kids! They are two and five. We have a huge fenced in yard and I am never gone for more than an hour or two.
