“Rachel is prompt, reliable, and communicates well. We are very comfortable having Rachel walk our dog, and will definitely book more walks in the future!”

“Meagan was amazing very good communication. The boys loved her and I know I appreciated her responsiveness as I had to book walks last minute. Will definitely be booking with her again in the future.”

About: I grew up caring for animals on our farm and have always had a deep love for them. My own fur baby Moge passed away a few years ago. He was such a sweet nugget who gave me plenty of experience. I understand how to read animal’s behavior and listen for cues of distress/anxiety. I have experience with dogs of different sizes and breeds. I will treat your fur baby as if they were my own and will respect boundaries and rules that you have in place for their training and schedule. I currently have a flexible schedule and I am able to accommodate many different requests including weekday and weekend house sitting or over night stays. Safety first, during walks I prefer dogs to be on harnesses so as to limit the potential for injuries due to sudden jerks. I know first hand how some pups can get scared of oncoming traffic or excited by other wildlife, your pet’s health is my top concern. Walking should help their health not hurt it. I always allow pets to warm up to me when doing drop in visits and do my best to minimize stress during the visit. An owner’s absence can be confusing and stressful for the pet, it’s important they feel loved and safe. I will do everything I can to adhere to the boundaries you have in place with your pet such as jumping, treats, boundary areas in the home, ect. We can discuss these in detail prior to booking.

“She’s awesome! My shy pup warmed up to her very quickly and was treated with the best care during their walks. Will definitely be using her again!”

“Hannah was incredible, she responded in such a timely manner and was such a delight to have come walk/ check in on Reaper. She sent photos, made sure he was able to use the bathroom, and cleaned an accident he had in his crate. Highly recommend her!”

About: My family has rescued dogs since I was born! Breeds I've had or pet sitted for include Beagles, Bassets, Border Collies, Golden Retrievers, Cocker Spaniels, Weiners, Presa Canarios, Pit Bulls, Yorkies, Bernese Mountain Dogs, mixed breeds, dozens of cats and even a Vietnamese Pig! I adopted a Tabby cat from the shelter I volunteered at for 3 years (however, he has now "adopted" my parents and lives a very spoiled life in MI). Working at the shelter taught me how to be extra patient with certain breeds who came from unfortunate situations and/or environments. I cleaned their cages, took them for walks, administered meds, and showed them as much love as possible if they allowed it. I am a very affectionate person, love fur cuddles, and am not afraid to get dirty (I've had puppies and senior dogs) and have a natural ability to connect with animals. I am also very aware that some pets just need their personal space and have different needs, just like people (only better). I am an avid hiker and yogi and love including pets in any related activity I can so that they get to exercise and/or relax with me. I also am respectful that not all animals are created the same and am completely fine with just feeding them, walking them, and letting them have their own space if that's their preference. I work from home except for one day a week and do not have any dependents, so I have a pretty flexible schedule and lifestyle. I occasionally work a few hours on weekends at a food truck but can either bring your pet with me or they can hang for a few hours at my place. I also have reliable transportation (good 'ol Jeep) that can fit multiple pets of all shapes and sizes :-) I have an open floor plan apartment with a 110' ft. balcony overlooking Mt. Massive and live within one mile of two dog parks and within close distance to a safe, walkable downtown area. I also have a partner who owns property with a fenced yard and we share two rescue dogs (husky mix and shepherd mix) but they live with him. I have a pretty open floor plan and not a lot of "stuff," and am always aware of what items are around to put away so that the pet cannot get into anything. I have one set of stairs that go up to the apartment, and can also keep extra blankies, toys, and owner approved treats (if allowed) to make sure that the pet feels as safe and comfortable as possible.

About: I have been caring for others pets for over 10 years! Ranging from fish, cats, dogs, horses, etc. Spending time with animals is a passion for me and I look forward to meeting your pet! I am a yoga teacher which makes my schedule extremely flexible to care for your pet and all their needs! Looking forward to meeting you and your pet! I have a dog of my own who is extremely friendly and loves having new friends to adventure with! I strive to give your pet the best care while you are away!

“AJ was amazing! We were in town for a wedding and needed last minute help with our pups. She was very communicative, and made us feel comfortable from our initial meeting- there was no doubt our dogs were in good hands! She listened to what our dogs needed, and understood any special needs they may have. She sent pictures and videos and the dogs had the best time with her. She made our trip stress free when it came to the dogs, helping with transportation at pick up and drop off. I would highly recommend AJ and her family!”

About: Bill Murray says it best: “I’m suspicious of people who don’t like dogs, but I trust a dog when it doesn’t like a person.” I’m an all-around absolute animal lover but there’s just that something about dogs that I drool over. Dogs understand me and I understand them, similar to whisperer status. I’ve been known to greet dogs before I acknowledge its human(s) but I know none of you blame me for that! Trust that I’ll treat your pup as if it’s my own human child, and because I don’t have one of those, I’m extremely grateful and tickled for the opportunity to share my love with your best fur friend(s). I genuinely look forward to our time together! [Friendly reminder: Rover takes 20% out of the services and gas cost is high.]

“Punctual; and Teddy came back happily tired .”

About: I have had dogs ever since I could remember as a kid. I have experience sitting for small, big, old, young, and medically complex animals, also including cats and reptiles. I have administered medications/observed certain pets as well that needed a little extra attention. I really enjoy engaging your pets in the routines you have set for them and being silly with them to bring them out of their shells. I miss having my own dogs who have sadly passed from childhood and would love to spend time with them! I currently work early mornings, but can switch that around, Friday-Wednesday, usually off by 3pm. I would be able to house sit any of these days and do walks any morning and afternoon! I ensure I understand expectations from every owner on their routines and desires. I ensure I keep the place clean and give the animals the space, as well as attention, they need! I try my best to mimick what their usual routine is so when the owners get back, the transition is smooth and less anxiety stricken for both parties.

About: I have been a long time animal owner including dogs and cats from all ages. I have experience with taking care of senior and disabled animals. I’m an all around animal person who also has experience with caring for exotic reptiles, amphibians, birds and aquatic animals. I am able cook for your companion(s) if they have a special diet and I am an attentive person when it comes to animals who need special attention or care. I have had dogs of all sizes and age throughout my life and also currently have dogs and cats of my own. I take dogs out to exercise twice a day and have a spacious home with animal friends for your companion’s stay. Please let me know if you are interested! Pet care is my top priority and only focus. I’m not balancing this with other jobs. Caring for animals is what I love and what I do full-time. Whether it’s daily walks, overnight stays, or drop-in visits, I plan my entire schedule around your pet’s needs to ensure they get consistent, attentive, and loving care every time. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or in a client’s home, I treat every animal like family. I prioritize their comfort, safety, and routine. Whether that means sticking to their specific feeding schedule, giving them space to relax, or offering lots of playtime and snuggles. I maintain a calm, clean environment, pay close attention to behavior or mood changes, and communicate regularly with pet parents to ensure peace of mind. I’m happy to accommodate special needs, medications, or quirks. Whatever helps your pet feel happiest and most at home.
