About: I’ve taken care of dogs of many sizes and temperaments for over 6 years. Having two of my own rescue fur babies and helping friends, family, and neighbors, I’ve developed a calm, confident approach that pets respond well to. I’m reliable, detail-oriented, and treat every dog like my own—whether that’s administering medication, going on long walks, or simply giving them love and attention while you’re away. I am currently in the process of credentialing for a full-time healthcare job, so I am available at whatever day and times work best for others! I am unable to have dogs at my home, but am happy and willing to follow any instructions you provide me for taking care of your fur baby in their home and environment! I have a car which I can transport them to fun adventures or we can hang out at your house/neighborhood. My 2.5 year old fur baby is also dog-friendly if you’d like your pet to have a dog play companion.
About: I have taken care of dogs and cats since I was 15 years old. Whether it’s a quick check in, potty break, walk, cuddle buddy, etc. I’m looking forward to meeting your furry friends! I do work full time, as well as a full time college student. During the week, I work 9:30am-6pm and if I’m working on the weekends it is 8am-4:30pm. As long as it works with my schedule, I’m available! I have 3 dogs and 7 cats. I treat my pets like family. I make sure they’re on a consistent feeding and walking schedule, and I always keep their environment clean, safe, and enriching. I pay close attention to their behavior and health so I can catch any changes early. Whether it’s playtime, cuddle time, or just being present, I make sure they feel loved, secure, and well cared for every single day.
“Nick did a great job at updating us throughout his stay, which helps greatly if you get anxious leaving your fur babies. Both of our pets were well taken care of and warmed up to him quickly.”
“Sidney was amazing and so attentive to max and cookie. She was oving with them and kept us updated. Our babies fell in love with her instantly. She's officially a part of the family definitely our go to.”
“Reid was wonderful! Great communication. He gave me updates on my pups every day I was gone, he took my pups on wonderful walks. I will definitely be in contact again when I have to go on a trip! Thanks again for the great service and treating my pups like they are your own! ?”
“Kathleen did a wonderful job taking care of our animals (3 dogs) and did some extra cleanup for us. She sent us pics and took some extra time to not only watch after the guinea pigs, hamster and mouse, but even cleaned out their stinky cages. It was obvious that the dogs were comfortable with her. Thanks Kathleen. We appreciate all you did for us.”
“Ann is absolutely wonderful! She was very communicative during her stay with Zoe, sent pictures and updates daily, and made us feel very assured that Zoe was in good hands. She was a pleasure to work with from start to finish, and left our home”
About: I’ve been around animals all my life, & I can’t wait until I’m in a situation when I can finally have my own dog again. I’m knowledgeable about pet care & animal behavior, have great attention to detail, & enjoy learning more. I love every critter I meet (although I am partial towards chihuahuas & pits) & I have yet to meet a dog that didn’t like me. My family always had dogs growing up, & I have experience caring for a variety of dogs of different ages. I’ve only had two pet dogs that went through their entire life cycle with me, & my most recent doggo was a shitzu who came to me when she was 11. I spent her last few years trying to make her as comfortable & happy as possible. That’s the goal for every animal I care for. While this is obviously a job, & I do need the money, I genuinely enjoy getting to be helpful, to make someone’s life easier, & to, of course, spend time with dogs. I figure if I have to have a side hustle, it should at least be rewarding!! Thanks for reading!! I am a waitress- I usually work full-time, but it’s the slow season & we have a server surplus at the moment. I’m currently only scheduled for 3 night shifts a week, so my schedule is pretty open. Even on the days I do work, I would be able to check-in & care for the dogs before I go in, & can check on them afterwards as well if needed. Basically, I currently have plenty of time to fit in pet care. I am comfortable staying at someone else’s place; it would be nice to have a change of scenery every once in a while. Of course, I will treat your house with respect & be sure to leave it as it was when I arrived! If they wanna chill & sleep, that’s fine with me, but if they’re really active & need to play, I will play fetch & tug-o-war for hours on end. I have a car & supplies to take care of a dog if it is needed (snacks, poop bags, leash, blankets, first aid kit). I’m familiar with dog breeds & behavior & am aware of different training techniques so I’m not worried about being able to manage any dog- like getting them in their crate at the end of the night, or establishing a relationship with them, etc. I will care for your pet the way you want, but above all I will always care for an animal with the utmost respect & love, 💕

About: I’ve cared for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities since I was 10 years old. Friends, neighbors, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and love their pets like my own.

I am available anytime Monday through friday! When caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow all instructions closely to maintain their routine. I provide lots of attention, playtime, and ensure a clean, safe environment. I'm respectful of your space and your pet’s comfort is my top priority.

Madelyne L.
“I’ve known Madi for 3 years now and by far, I can say that she has an unconditional love for animals of all sorts! She has cared for our dogs, our cat, our snake, our flock of 13 ducks, 4 chickens and 2 guard geese! When she comes over she greets and snuggles/holds all of them (the cat is not a snuggler and the snake is too small to snuggle still), all of their different schedules and needs are cared for; she is probably more attentive to all of them individually than I am! I highly recommend Madi to care for your pets! If she’s not familiar with how to care for them, she is a fast learner (our flocks are a good example). I have complete confidence that I can call and have no worries that my homestead is handled!”
