Christine is great with our dog Daisy Mae. She has a great calming energy about her which is exactly what my sometimes hyper pooch needs. Definitely recommend!

About: I have been caring for fur babies for half my life. I love getting to know every individual, their personalities and little quirks. Small, big, young or old I love them all. I have worked with clients assisting in puppy training, administering medication when needed or offering special care to our more senior pets. I have also owned and/or worked with birds, fish, small caged animals, poultry and horses. Our animals are at the heart of our homes. I am here to provide loving care to those hearts or yours. I currently work part time remotely from home and have a very flexible schedule. I am available morning, noon and night and can easily work with your timetable. I am not currently offering boarding or overnight care at this time. I am available for drop in visits and walks whenever needed. If transportation is needed to get to a place for exercise like a park or trail I can accommodate that as well.

About: You will receive 24/7 care. I provide a continuous care service, ensuring that pets are accompanied at all times. I treat pets as if they were part of my family. I take walks, games and activities that stimulate them physically and mentally. I provide photos and videos at all times while your faithful friend is with me. I can take care of pets preferably in the mornings before 2 and on weekends. Although, I can change my work schedule whenever you need. I prefer to take care of the pets at home, I can bathe them, comb them, feed them and take them for walks, all with more comfort in my home. You will have photos and videos all the time if you prefer.

About: I have four of my own dogs and spend majority of my home time making sure they are fed, happy, and loved. I have experience with administering medications orally and topically. I have worked with puppies by teaching special skills such as (sit, shake, and lay down) to working with adult dogs who have anxiety and require additional attention/care. I am an owner of two bigger dogs and two dachshunds (which has taught me a lot about the importance of joint and spinal care). I also have experience with resource guarding, breaking up the occasional tiff between dogs, and walking with dogs who pull a lot. I work a partial third shift, which gives me the ability for a morning and afternoon visit. If necessary, I can also visit at night before I head in to work. I have a fenced in yard, gates in my home to protect pets in my space, and crates in case of overnight stay or special needs.

About: I’m a software development student and bartender with management experience looking to fill some free time and make a little extra money. I can’t think of a better way than to spend time with your fur baby! My family has had dogs of all ages and sizes as far back as my memory goes. I am not a dog owner currently, seeing as my schedule does not allow for the full commitment of ownership each pup requires! I do have two cats and live in a two bedroom, so your pet will never be alone and will have space to roam about. Outside of work and school, I love camping, hiking, reading, and live music. I would love to take your pup in a neighborhood stroll, or have a companion for a short hike!

About: I’ve always been a big animal person. I grew up riding horses competitively for 20 years. This opened the door for me to gain experience farm and pet sitting beginning in high school. I currently have two rescues, a husky mix and a German Shepard, so taking care of bigger dogs is not a problem. We are a very active family and enjoy taking the pups out for hikes and daily walks. We have an acre of land for your dogs to enjoy and live on a quiet road. My dogs are cat friendly and the cat is dog friendly. I’m currently enjoying the stay-at-home wife life and am available through out the week to do drop-ins and walks. I am not doing boarding right now as I am raising duckling and chicks in my home. I have two large dogs and a cat. They enjoy the company of other pets they can play or hang out with. Usually my GSD takes an hour or so to get used to a new dog in the house but after the initial meeting, she loves to share her toys and play. My husky mix is very mellow and knows no strangers. When providing services in a clients home, I aim to leave their home as clean or cleaner than I found it. I make sure their pets are happy and safe before I leave.

About: I have experience taking care of all different kinds of animals. I have experience administering medications and taking care of any special requests. Puppies and senior dogs are my favorite to care for. I grew up with a house full of animals- dogs, cats, horses, and even a tortoise! I rescued my Golden Retriever, Louise, two years ago. Through lots of training and patience, we have adapted our lives to meet her needs. I prioritize safety above all else when caring for animals. I have fostered animals before and know how important it is for your pet to feel comfortable when meeting a new person. I own an event planning company that requires me to work remotely and mostly on the weekends. I have lots of flexibility throughout the day and I am available to take care of all of your pet’s needs. I currently have one special needs Golden Retriever named Louise. We take great care to make sure she has a full life outside of the house by taking her on walks, hikes, car rides, etc.

Bronwyn was awesome! She was able to come by and meet our doggos beforehand and helped us out with a few walks while we were busy at work and gave us some cute photos and summaries :) will definitely book again!

Melanie has looked after my special needs dog on many occasions, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. My dog has physical special needs, but he also has a challenging temperament which means he struggles to get along with other dogs without a proper introduction and close initial supervision. Melanie has worked her magic with him to ensure that he interacts safely with other dogs, and even builds friendships. That's such an incredible skill. She is an excellent communicator and always makes sure I know what's happening with my boy when he is in her care, that reassurance is important to me. She is kind, patient, professional, and a genuine animal lover. I 100% trust Melanie with my precious dog, which means I can relax when I’m away from him, and the level of care she provides for him is truly exceptional.

Highly recommend Cat as a dog walker! Used her services several times. Attentive, loving, and considerate of our home. Our three pups loved her! Very easy to communicate with.

Taylor looked after my boy Sid for about three weeks while I was out of the country. She took care of him like he was her own, and sent regular updates on his appetite, his mood, and how he was settling in. He’s a nervous little guy, but he felt safe and happy with Taylor. Highly recommend her care!
