About: I've been caring for dogs, cats, rabbits, snakes, rats, and birds my whole life. I've got experience caring for animals with special needs as well (diabetes, behavioral trouble, etc.) and am comfortable dosing medication too! Most importantly, I've never met an animal I didn't love and care for as if they were my very own! My work schedule is flexible, so I can work with you easily! Days, nights, and even late nights or overnights when needed are doable for me. I live near many parks and trails and love an outing, which allows me amazing access to enrichment activities and exercise for your pets! Walks and play will be engaging and fun for your pet. In your home, your pet AND your space will be respected and treated with care.
“Lisa was wonderful with Theo my cat. He responded very well to her gentle, soft spoken, and kind manner. He often slept with her and would make bread while sitting on her lap. She has plenty of space for him to run and play. The thing I'm most grateful for is the fact she doesn't have carpeting. One very unique and creative thing she did was using a small canvas she'd take the colors from his coat and applied them to the canvas and put the canvas in a zip lock bag. Than using Theo's paws would let him create a special piece of artwork. Which she gave to me when I picked him up. She is truly Amazing and I wouldn't hesitate to leave my fur babies with her again.”
About: I have had pets for as long as I can remember and i’ve always had a passion for working with animals. I have experience as a dog bather so i’ve seen various breeds and i’ve met dogs of all ages! I am an animal lover, I’ve taken care of all types of animals from dogs and cats to goats and cows 🐄. I am determined to make your pets time with me as stress free as possible! pets>people! ❤️ I am currently working part time, so your pets will have my full attention! I have a dog myself as well as two cats who I am responsible for as well as other family pets. I have one dog who is very friendly, and two outside cats. if your dog is stressed by other animals I am able to set up a crate if needed in a separate room or also just spend a lot of time outside with your dog to keep them happy and away from the stress. I have a fenced backyard and a safe neighborhood for walks. This also applies to your home
“Katelyn did a great job keeping our cat company and also keeping an eye on our two chickens. She also watered my daughter’s plants. Our cat was way less stressed than when we have boarded her during trips. We would hire her again.”
About: I have over a decade of experience caring for a wide variety of animals including dogs, cats, and other small animals. When it comes to dogs, I’ve worked with all sizes and breeds, including those that are leash-pullers or reactive to other dogs or stimuli. I’m confident handling challenging behavior and use calm, consistent techniques to keep walks safe and enjoyable. In addition to dog walking, I have experience with feeding routines, administering basic medications, cleaning enclosures or litter boxes, and giving pets the attention and care they need. I truly enjoy bonding with animals and making sure they feel comfortable, safe, and loved. I am available 24/7, so I can match your schedule anytime you need whether it be early mornings, late nights, weekends, holidays, you name it. I ensure dog safety and trust through clear communication, reliable care, routine adherence, positive interaction, and preparedness, always prioritizing the dog’s well-being and owner’s peace of mind.
“McKenna not only was punctual, kind, patient, and communicative, but she also has fantastic integrity. One day my cameras malfunctioned and I didn’t see the notification that someone had checked on the dogs, so the worst cases were running through my head of course. She was so sweet and (I can’t stress this enough) PATIENT with me while I was nervously asking questions. I’d recommend her 1,000x over.”
“Sara did an amazing job looking after my cat and hamster over the Thanksgiving holiday! She was sure to send pictures each day and arrived to each drop in visit in a timely fashion. I would definitely book with Sara again!”

“James is an extremely diligent and considerate pet sitter. I can be a bit of a helicopter pet parent, but I don't have nearly as much anxiety about leaving my cats knowing that James is staying with them! He went above and beyond to care for them, especially our 17 year old cat with special needs. He is also excellent at communication! I highly recommend James to anyone!”
“Brianna was super responsive, flexible and kept us up to date every time she checked in. I felt totally comfortable having her in our home and our pup seemed perfectly happy when we came back home! Will definitely hire her again!”
About: As a devoted dog owner and animal lover, I bring years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all sizes and temperaments. I understand that every pet is unique, and I tailor my care to meet their individual needs. Whether it’s providing belly rubs, going on long walks, or ensuring mealtime routines are followed to a T, I treat every pet like family. What Sets Me Apart I specialize in: • Caring for puppies, including potty training and basic commands. • Providing extra TLC for senior pets, including administering medication if needed. • Keeping pets happy and active with plenty of exercise! Schedule I have a flexible schedule that allows me to dedicate plenty of time to caring for your pets. I currently work part-time, three days a week, but my mornings and evenings are open most days. This means I’m available for walks, check-ins, and extended pet-sitting sessions. How Pet Care Fits Into My Routine: As a dog owner myself, caring for pets is already a part of my daily life. I take my dog on regular walks, ensure they’re fed on time, and make playtime a priority. Adding your furry friend to my routine is seamless because I truly enjoy spending time with animals. Whether it’s an energetic puppy who needs lots of exercise or a senior dog who prefers gentle strolls, I’m happy to adapt my day to meet their needs. Your pet’s comfort and happiness will always be my top priority! When caring for pets, safety and trust are my top priorities. I ensure pets feel secure, comfortable, and loved, whether in my home or my client’s home. I follow your specific instructions to keep your pet’s routine consistent and stress-free. From meal schedules to medication administration, I adhere to your preferences to provide seamless care. I also ensure your home remains tidy and treat it with the utmost respect. In My Home: My home is pet-friendly, clean, and secure. I provide a safe environment with plenty of space for play and relaxation. I supervise pets closely, ensuring they’re never left unattended for long periods. Your furry friend will have access to plenty of fresh water, cozy resting spots, and lots of love and attention. Whether in my home or yours, you can trust me to prioritize your pet’s happiness and well-being! Safety Notice for Meet & Greets For my safety, I want to let clients know that during meet & greets, either my father or boyfriend will accompany me. They will either remain in the car or join me inside, depending on the situation. This is a precaution I take to ensure that I feel secure during these initial meetings.
