“Great communication and our pup was immediately comfortable with her which is saying a lot! She was very attentive to him and got him out for a few walks which was great”

About: Hello. Call me Kathy. I love all animals especially dogs and I have raised and cared for many over the years. I enjoy having other dogs in my home so that my own Teddy can socialize and make new friends. I have lots of time for long walks or lazy snoozes on the couch with my pooches. I love all breeds and most of my friends have a furry family member. When they go away they depend on me to care for their precious pets because they trust me and they know I will love and care for their pets just like I do my own. I am dependable and reliable and enjoy having fun with the dogs and teaching them new tricks. I live in an apartment but the property has lots of places to walk and run including a large, fenced-in dog park where the pups can run and play leash-less and carefree. This is a great opportunity for the dogs to meet and greet other pets in the area and just have fun together. Plenty of water is made available for the pooches as well as balls and toys. So, if you are looking for a place to leave your precious friend when you go away, trust Comfy Canine Care to give your pets the love and “at home” experience that you want them to have. So, reserve a spot for your furry friend today at Comfy Canine Care. I am retired now so I have lots of time for pet sitting and walking around the neighborhood and to the dog park on a regular basis. The dogs are allowed anywhere {including furniture but only if it is allowed in your own home}. Please let me know if there are any restrictions.

About: I have had a ton of experience working with all ages and breeds of dogs from puppy to senior. I currently own a three-year-old Belgian melon who is fully trained I know and have what it takes to care for dogs especially ones at a high energy I have such a love for animals and making sure that all their needs and priorities are met. That is my goal. If I’m watching someone’s animal, I’m watching it like my own because that’s how I would want someone to watch mine. I absolutely love animals and love watching them. I am home from break until January 12 looking to earn an extra money. I go back to college that day, but I will be home some weekends if needed. I can also do it where I go to college. I have a big backyard and a very trained for a baby that is friendly with other dogs, your animals carries my top priority. I can create your dog or keep it open. I’m very flexible depending on what best suits your dog would depend on how my dog will be. He’s crate trained but also can be out, so just depends on the comfortability of the animal that I’m watching.

About: I’ve grown up fostering and owning all sort of animals! From bottle feeding puppies to raising abandoned birds, I’ve done it. I’ve been known to bond with animals who have been considered “grumpy” or “solitary”, too. I have experience taking care of a wide range of animals as well and look forward to taking care of yours! My schedule is wide open so fitting pet care in will be my top priority whether you want me to come to you or if you want to leave your pet in my care. I do daily walks and dog park runs with my pup and would be happy to do the same with yours! My home is open concept with plenty of room to play and I have a large couch if that’s more your pets speed. I am highly detail oriented so if I’m visiting your pet at home, I’ll make sure they get exactly the care you’re looking for. You’ll also receive lots of pictures when your pet is in my care!

About: I have extensive pet care experience, having owned and cared for two beloved dogs that each lived long, happy lives—one reaching 18 years and the other 20 years. Over the course of their lives, I gained hands-on experience with all aspects of dog care, including feeding routines, exercise, grooming, administering medications, and providing a nurturing, loving environment. I am very familiar with the needs of both young and senior dogs, including maintaining their health and comfort through all stages of life. Now that I am retired, I have plenty of time and flexibility to dedicate to caring for dogs. I am available to provide attentive pet sitting, ensuring that dogs under my care receive not only their basic necessities but also companionship, playtime, and affection. My focus is on keeping pets safe, happy, and comfortable, whether they need daily walks, special diets, or just someone to spend quality time with them. If you are looking for someone who will treat your dog like family, I bring years of experience, patience, and genuine love for animals to every pet sitting opportunity. Pet sitting fits naturally into my daily and weekly routine as a retiree. With flexible days, I can easily schedule visits, walks, and playtime around my personal errands and hobbies. Caring for pets gives structure to my mornings and afternoons, and it adds a joyful sense of purpose to my week. When I dog sit in my home or a client’s home, I focus on keeping the dogs happy, safe, and comfortable by following their usual routine for meals, walks, and rest. I always get detailed instructions from the owner, including feeding schedules, medications, and emergency contacts. I make sure they get plenty of exercise, playtime, and mental stimulation, and I monitor their health by watching their appetite, bathroom habits, and energy levels. I keep a clean and safe environment by securing doors and gates, cleaning up after them, and making sure water and food bowls are fresh. I also spend quality time giving them attention and affection, respect their personality and comfort level, and send regular updates to the owner. By staying attentive, organized, and caring, I provide a stress-free, positive experience for both the dogs and their owners.

“Kaylynne is such a SWEET young lady! We had to leave early to get up to Swannanoa where we were helping yesterday and she allowed me to drop our dog off before 8. My dog is still completely in puppy brain mode at 10 months old. She won’t run off at home as I use a training leash and she is focused on what we are doing and playing when I release her on to run and bring back her toy or visit our neighbor’s dog Our Puppy became anxious around 3 yesterday and she apparently remembered how to crawl up a fence like she did in her exercise corral months ago and she jumped over. She ran towards the road and Kaylynne tried to coax her back. Our dog had become anxious, Kahlynne explained, as it was her first time in doggie daycare. Kahlynne ended up calling me and I asked her to put me on speaker phone. I was able to call out and speak to our pup. It helped her to come back towards Kajlynne where she was able to take hold of her. She kept my precious fur baby in her house until I got back down the Mtn as fast as I could. I truly appreciate Kaylynne and all she did. Her own dogs are so sweet and she has a large fenced in backyard area where the dogs are free to run and play.”

About: Through my time working in barns at age 6, to working in vets offices in adulthood, & caring for my own furry critters, i have gleaned copious amounts of knowledge regarding animal care & safety. My top priority is the happiness of pets & owners alike, & my effective communication & overall empathy lends itself greatly to the satisfaction of all parties involved. I have administered medications to countless animals, & know what it takes to care for nearly any critter, large or small. I have a deep passion for animals, & i find that my time is best spent caring for these loving creatures. The trust of clients & animals alike are my main goal, & my attentiveness & awareness of the nuances of animal communication allows me to bond deeply with both animals & their owners. There is truly nothing better than loving a critter, & i receive no joy greater than loving & caring for animals. I am working from home for the time being, & have ample amounts of time to care for & attend to animals. From daily walks, to playtime, all the way down to comfort & nap times, i am all in & have a very flexible schedule throughout the week to care for critters. My hope is to fill my time with not just the love of my own animals, but the animals of my community as well. I have a large fenced in backyard, with ample space for dogs to play & bask in the sun. I have 5 cats, a dog, & 6 rats(in a cage of course), & everyone gets along great (for the most part). My dog does best meeting new dogs outside of my home, & once he is settled with them he loves the company. He is a great addition to walks & playtime, & has done doggy daycare in the past & loved it. My dog is also a lover of cats, & is very gentle, sweet, & curious about them. My cats do well with other dogs, & in the instance of other cats, some of my felines can be picky, but i have plenty of space in my home to allow everyone to have their own safe space & comfort. 2 of my cats are loving & welcoming of other kitties, & will show them the ropes of the house no problem. I do scheduled meal times, between 7-9am, & 6:30pm, & ensure my animals have the best food & supplements to care for their own independent needs. Play time is a must day to day, & there is plenty of time & attention given to activities. Litter boxes are cleaned daily, if not multiple times a day, & my house is kept clean & tidy as to allow the fur babies to have the most room & accessibility in the space as possible. Animals are my passion, & i give great attention to their happiness & comfort.

“Our dog warmed up to Stephanie immediately. She was kind, warm and paid close attention to the needs of our older dog. She was great to keep us posted throughout the day and went above and beyond in her care. She will definitely be our first choice when we need care for our furry family member in the future.”

“I’m from out of town and needed a dog sitter for my puppy while attending a nearby festival. Kathalene was very flexible and accommodating. She took care of my fearful little guy and made sure he was comfortable while he was there. He had a great time playing and I’d definitely use her again if I’m in town. Thanks so much!”

Stephanie M.

“Freddy and Monica were perfect for my little girl! She is shy and takes a little while to warm up to new people and friends but she quickly made herself comfortable and right at home with Freddy and Monica. They were professional, attentive to her needs/safety, and took great pictures of her throughout the day. I would highly recommend and will definitely be using them again!”
