She has a natural way with animals—gentle, patient, and always attentive to their needs. I’ve seen firsthand how loving and responsible she is, making sure pets feel safe, happy, and well cared for.

“Congratulations on choosing Athena ... I have an established (10 years in area) pet sitting & training business with a small client list. I utilize Athena's services when I need an extra body, and she is available. She has been excellent with all the dogs and homes. Some of the pets include a 2-year-old 120# bully/mastiff and her sidekick 12-year-old terrier (with total attitude), a 4# 15-year-old teacup Chihuahua (totally spoiled), an 8-year-old Rat Terrier/Jack Russell, an assortment of terriers in one home (3, with 2 in diapers), as well as a 14-year-old 120# aggressively reactive Shepard/mix.

She consistently follows client specific directions and instructions on house, pet and yard care, to the letter. My policy, which Athena follows without any hesitation ...

I trust her to show up, do the feedings, love and pet them, keep them safe and happy, walk them when necessary, and to be 100% reliable! And oh .. do pets love her!”

About: Over the years Ive taken care of a plenty of dogs ranging from different sizes and breeds. Ive cared, bathed, fed, walked multiple of my friends dogs and cats as well as my own. Ive also distributed several different medications to pets of my own. And I truly treat my pets I would family, making sure they have walks daily, good/high quality homemade food, and ensure they are/feel very loved. My oldest dog is 13 so I have experience with elderly doggies too. Im working very minimal days currently so I have free time to care for your animals. I highly enjoy hiking and/or walking and love to do lots of outdoor activities specially with my dog. I am also available on weekends after 2pm if needed. I would highly prefer taking the animal out and about on a walk, hike, etc or caring for the pet in clients home. My doggies at home are not friendly with other dogs and would rather not risk it. I am a highly trustworthy person and am looking for the best interest of your pets.

“Lauren is wonderful! She is professional, friendly, and takes excellent care of our fur baby. While I hate to leave my cat for extended periods, it’s a great comfort knowing that she’s the one taking care of him. I will definitely book with her again.”

About: I have experience living with and taking care of many different animals ever since I can remember! I love animals and enjoy looking after them.

About: I don’t have much experience with cats, but I do enjoy their company and love to play with them. I cat sit for most of my friends whenever they leave out of town.

After my shift, I dedicate time to wind down with your pet through engaging play or simply cuddling up. I maintain a flexible schedule and keep open communication with pet owners. I ensure that all play areas and living spaces are free from hazards, keeping things clean and organized. I maintain a fully stocked pet first aid kit and stay up-to-date with pet safety practices. Every activity, from walks to playtime, is carefully supervised to keep your pet safe and sound

They will receive all the love and care I can muster, including snuggles and hugs a plenty. Making sure they are fed and clean so you can come home to a healthy pet.

“Jacinda has been watching my dogs for the last 5-6 years now and is amazing. They absolutely LOVE her - I always say “your best friend is here!” and they know exactly who it is and get so excited.
