“Adelaide was great at communicating and wrote a very detailed report about her visit with our pups. When a problem arose she promptly communicated and found a solution. We loved the photos she sent and will gladly have her back!”
“Jenn did a great job of handling a challenging situation with one of my cats while I was away. Her clear communication and photos were so helpful. I appreciate her understanding, capable, and confident care of my cats. Thanks again Jenn!”
“Desiree completed multiple drop-in visits (2x daily) during a week-long vacation for my two senior cats. Mr. Twix is diabetic and requires insulin injections twice a day. Desiree was happy to stop over ahead of the trip to go over insulin and daily routines. I asked for photo updates and Desiree was happy to share! She graciously cleaned one poo mess and even helped reset the fuse box when the cat fountain stopped working. Twix and Butters were calm and happy when I arrived home. I felt comfortable on my trip knowing the kids were getting love in my absence!”
“Kathy did a great job looking in on our cat for a week. We had a very nice meet-and-greet, and while we were away she sent multiple photos and gave informative reports for each visit. I would not hesitate to book her again.”
About: I’ve had and loved animals my entire life. As an adult I’ve had 2 German shepherd’s and have done positive reinforcement training with both. My daughter also had a rescue dog that was very special. Currently I have dogs and a cat. I’m currently working full time as a nurse/clinic leader. I have the flexibility to work from home on occasion. I have a 11 year old son that is in sports so I need to work around his game schedule. I can provide and respect any safety recommendations as requested. I want you and your pet to feel as comfortable as possible while you’re away.
“Trinity looked after Toby and Betty so well that we didn’t need to worry and can fully relaxed on vacation! Even if it snowed heavily, Trinity came on time and left everything tidy just like how we left it. Would really recommend.”
About: I would love to give your friend special care and lots of love while you are away. I love to go for walks or chill on the couch with my animal guests. I will definitely try to help them have so much fun they won't miss you at all! I work from home and love to take a few walks a day. I would love to take your furbaby with me on those walls! We currently have no pets in our home, but have had in the past. Your baby will get my undivided attention and will be loved on continually!
“Our three dogs had a great visit from Lexi! She fed them, let them outside and played with them and sent us great photos and a video. We felt very assured leaving Lexi in charge of our crew and we returned home to three very happy pups! We'll definitely be booking Lexi for future dates. Thank you!”
About: Tailored care from a lifelong dog lover. Adventures or couch cuddles - custom care for every dog. Your pup will feel right at home. I've grown up with dogs all my life and treat every furry guest like family because they are. They will gain two new besties in my dogs, a golden retriever and a lab mix, Bert & Valor, who are always ready for new playmates. Whether your dog loves exploring trails or snoozing in the sun, we've got the perfect balance of fun and calm. From silly puppies to wise seniors, I will follow every special care request to make sure both you and your pet feel safe and happy. We get it! We know from our own experience the peace of mind that comes from knowing your dogs are taken care of when you can't bring them with you on your adventures. Dog care is part of my every day routine. My husband and I both work from home full time so we will always be there. We have a routine for our pups and yours can fit right in, or if you have specific needs or timing just let me know! I will follow your pet's routine closely - mealtimes, medications, walks, potty breaks - to help them feel at home. Your pet's safety and comfort are my top priorities. I provide a clean, pet-friendly space that is secure, supervised, and free from hazards. We have a home with lots of space for beds or crates if needed. Lots of dog toys - plushies, chewers, and balls alike. We won't give your dog a bone or treat unless given permission - I know every tummy is different! A yard for potty breaks and sunshine. We live near many parks and trails for exercise. I will keep you updated with regular messages and photos.

I work with a flexible schedule that allows me to plan walks, drop-ins, and cuddle sessions around your pet’s needs—morning, midday, or evening. You can count on me to be consistent and reliable, so your pets get care right when they expect it. Your pet’s safety and comfort come first. In my home or yours, I create a calm, secure environment where pets can relax and feel at ease. I follow your pet’s normal routines to reduce stress, keep a close eye on their behavior, and make sure they’re never left in unsafe situations.

“As long as I've known Jessica she has always loved animals, she currently has three dogs (a German Shepherd, and two Brittany's who are full of energy) and one cat and still wants more. She takes all three dogs for walks at the same time and I'm not sure how she does it with all them. When she was in the country she had about 5 cats running around all the time with two of them that would go inside. I think she would be great caring for, or walking any animal.”
