About: Since I can remember, my family always had pets and we loved rescuing and caring for animals. The most pets I’ve had at once was 3 dogs, 2 cats, and 3 turtles in my household and I loved it. Now my partner and I have 1 dog and 2 cats and we love our furry babies 💛 My husband and I are always available full time for your pet sitter needs for boarding or just watching your fur babies for a few hours. We have a large yard with plenty of space to run and do their business. We have 1 dog and 2 cats who love friends and company. My dog is trained and loves to have fun! I have crates and plenty of rooms if needed.
“I had never used a dog walking service before, but I was in a jam and needed help fast. Holly, Josh, and Grace came through and got me scheduled right away! My dog can be a handful with his crazy zoomies, but they handled him like pros. It’s such a relief knowing he’s in good hands, getting the exercise and attention he needs while I’m at work. I’m so grateful for their flexibility and care—I’ll definitely be booking again!”

“Georgia is friendly and knows a lot about dogs, and behaviors. She is always sending me photos and giving me updates on my puppy. We can tell she really likes animals and we feel so confident with her as our dog walker. If she can’t make it to a scheduled time she is a problem solver and will go out of her way to help find an alternative. We appreciate all she’s done for our pup.*Also, sides note- I was unsure of how the app worked and she has been super helpful with (user) tech issues. She is an all around awesome human.”
“I really appreciate Rilea W’s help walking our Poppy while we were away for the day! She came to walk her 3 times. Each time she sent pictures and communicated with me. I will definitely use her again in the future!”
About: Ive taken care of dogs for a little over 5 years but have been around dogs and cats all my life. Family and friends have relied on me to care for their pets and I enjoy taking care of fur babies. I work from home and finish work around 3:30pm. I am free most weekends for walks and care. With enough time in advance I can dog/cat sit in your home. In my clients home I stay as true to their normal routine as possible making it an easy transition for when the owner is gone. I make sure I give extra love and attention to the pets as I would want this for my own pet.
About: My mom got me my first dog when I was 10 years old, and it was from then on that I promised to take care of him the best way I possibly could. I have experience administering medication (in pill form, liquid, and gel) to both dogs and cats, even when they don’t want to take it. I have also personally trained my dog to sit, lie down, high five, and on accident, I taught him to get up on his hind legs and beg with his front paws. If there is any special care that your animal needs, I would be more than happy to quickly and efficiently learn and adapt to care for your furbaby the way they deserve. I am currently job searching, so I will be free almost every weekday with exception for surprise obligations that my family often come to me with. I am not available on the weekends, including friday for various extraneous responsibilities. When I first meet an animal, I get down to their level and extend my hand just enough to offer it as an option for them to investigate, but not enough to shove it it their face. I wait until the dog or cat engages with me before I try to pet them on my own to ensure that they feel comfortable and safe. If your animal has separation anxiety, I would be more than happy to comfort them with calming words and gentle hands for pets and snuggles. I will only feed or give your animal a treat if I am told to do so or given the okay beforehand as I do not want to over feed them or give them a treat you have bought without consent.

Angela G.
“I first met Angela, known as Sunny and she is exactly that all sunshine! when we were searching for a dog walker for our Great Pyrennes puppy and care for two cats. We had a connection immediately as her personality and love of animals just shone through. She is a wealth of knowledge. You have a sense of who you want to leave your precious babies in the care of and from the moment I met her I just had that good feeling. I have to travel to UK many times a year and she would just step right in. Animals adored her and our dog Ollie cannot wait to see her. She would just come over for a cuddle just to stay connected. If that’s not animal love I don’t know what is! I cannot recommend her highly enough.”
