“Deborah was so wonderful with our finicky dog- he took right to her. She was prompt, friendly and had great communication. Hopefully, we can have her watch our pup again in the future!”
About: Loving and caring for my pets as well as those of others’ has been such a joy in my life and I offer that same love, care and attention to your best friends! Whether you need overnight stays or drop-in services, I’d love to meet your fur babies and keep them happy, healthy and safe until their best friends return. I’m currently retired and am very flexible time-wise. I’m available any day of the week, as overnight stays, or everyday of the week from 7-9ish. I currently have two golden retrievers and a fenced in yard but find that most dogs, and all cats, prefer their own surroundings so am willing and able to come to you home and take care of them.
“Jessica was amazing! I was a nervous wreck leaving my babies for the first time but Jessica made sure they got their medicine daily, gave them pets and took care of them. I got daily pictures of my kitties and she even included the resident neighborhood cat that visits every day too! Would definitely recommend!”
About: I have been an animal lover for my entire life. I grew up with cats and small pets and as an adult I have had my own dogs. I have been taking care of my neighbor’s two big dogs for three years now, including giving meds and immediately responding to emergencies. I am currently a stay at home mom looking to earn extra income while the kids are at school. I am available to come on nights and weekends if the kids can come! They love pets too. I put safety first always, for animals and humans. I am very good at reading an animal’s energy and I am very good at helping calm everyone down and feel safe. I am a comforting presence and they are for me in return. I have also recently had my yard certified as a wildlife habitat from the National Wildlife Federation.
“You were exceptional and knew exactly what personality each of my dogs have. You captured each one's personality in the photos you would send daily. Stop in and visit anytime. I will definitely be relying on you again!”
“Jenny did such an amazing job caring for our dog while we were away. She did extra little things that she didn’t have to do, as taking her for short walks and stayed extra time with her when she was feeling anxious, as our dog has high anxiety and Jenny made sure to keep her comfortable. I was very nervous about leaving my dog knowing her anxiety levels, but Jenny made it so smooth going and made me feel much better about it all! Great communication with me each time she came in my home to care for her too! I will definitely recommend Jenny to anyone that is looking for care for their pet while being away!”
“Jessica was so amazing with our kitty while we were away. Even though he isn’t that social she did an amazing job keeping him engaged and distracted him from us being away. Highly recommended!”
About: I've fostered a variety of dogs and puppies of different ages for many years. I have also dog sat for friends before and am reliable.

About: As a kid we raised bassett hounds. My mother was a cruelty investigator. I helped her on cases from time to time. We raised ducks as well. I have owned many pets through out my life. I currently have 3 dogs and a service dog in the making. I worked at a kennel where I was the caretaker for two buildings taking care of close to 200 puppies a day. I cleaned up after them, sanitize their living area, fed them and gave them water. I fell in love with a little guy who kept being passed over. He had been there for 8months. I decided to bring him home and make him part of the fur family. It was very rewarding especially when they got a new home. No aggressive dogs please! All dogs must be current on their shots!
