“Ben is such a great companion for our Izzy when we need a mid-day visit. We can tell he loves animals and creates an engaging experience for her. Thank you, Ben!”


“Always takes time and is patient with my older dog Clover and keeps in great communication while I’m away. Book with Alexis you won’t be disappointed!”


“Olivia was fantastic! She agreed to meet my dog beforehand and was so sweet to her while I was out of town. I got daily pictures with updates and reaching Olivia was never an issue. For someone who rarely leaves their dog, this was such a great first experience. I would definitely book again😊 Thank you for everything!!!”


“Claudette was absolutely wonderful! They were very communicative and made us feel at ease, even getting to know the personality of our cat to enrich the visits.”


About: I have experience with house sitting and having other dogs in my home. I have fostered and raised 4 dogs. I have experience with pregnant and new mommy dogs. I’m working mornings at my job and would love to spend time with other dogs. I have some flexibility, so just email me and let me know what you need. I own my home, I have a fenced in yard. I have stayed at clients homes before I crashed the couch. Just let me know what you need and works best for you.

“Bryce was great with our two kitties. He spent good amounts of time playing with them and when he couldn't he was honest about why and made up for it later. We'd love to have him back!”


About: I've grown up always having a family dog, and can't wait to meet yours! I am experienced in giving oral and injectable medications, and have no preference of puppy-senior aged dogs. I work part time and on the night shift as a nurse, so I have lots of time to care for your furry friends, morning, afternoon, or evening! I have a fenced in yard where I can bring your pet to run around in, or I can preferably take care of your pet in your own home!

“Sara responded very quickly to a pretty last minute request. She came to meet Bradley the next day, I walked her through everything and she was good to go. Bradley absolutely loved her. He can be quite energetic and she took the time to make sure he got the exercise he needed and followed all my instructions for him perfectly! Her communication was great, again, responding very quickly whenever I reached out to check on my boy. I would definitely recommend Sara for watching your dog!!!”


“Liberty did such a great job taking care of my babies! She sent timely pictures and details of what she did for the drop in. Oliver and Nina really loved her and I came to two happy kitties. Would 100% recommend Liberty for your next vacation!!”


“Paige was so helpful in checking on our dog while we were out. She fed him, played with him, and went above & beyond caring for him. We came hope to a happy pup.”


“Alyssa did a great job working with our fearful dog to get him comfortable with her being around. Kept a very calm energy that helped him be much more at ease than he usually is with new people.”


“Top notch! She cares for your kitty as her own.”


About: I have owned my own dogs and have taken care of my family’s and friends’ dogs since I was a child. I am reliable and am passionate about caring for animals. Lots of experience feeding, walking, bathing and caring for dogs. I am home full-time and take care of my own dog, so your dog will be watched carefully and receive plenty of attention throughout the entire day. I live in a townhouse with no yard, but I have access to a grassy patio area with plenty of surrounding grassy areas to walk and play. I will take your dog out on a leash at all times. I have a small 20lb dog that is friendly to other dogs and people.

About: My pet care experience is from having pets of my own up until recently. I have also taken care of family and friend’s pet’s both in my own home and theirs. Our dog Hank recently passed away and we are lost without him. I am not quite ready to take that next step of getting a new dog but I have lots of loves and nose boops to share with your pet. I work from home on Mondays and Fridays so I would be home with your pet all day on those days. Tuesday-Wednesday I do work in an office but my husband would be home all day with your pet. I do have a fenced in yard and live in a very safe and friendly neighborhood where we would take walks. I am also close to a dog park.

About: I work fully remote, so your dog will have consistent supervision throughout the day. This allows me to provide regular walks, feeding, and bathroom breaks without long gaps. I’m dependable, communicative, and committed to following your pet’s routine as you outline it. I work fully remote, so with the exception of occasional meetings, my schedule is very flexible. This makes it easy to integrate pet care into my day. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize maintaining their routine and environment as instructed. I keep their feeding, walking, play, and rest schedule consistent, and I make sure the home stays clean and secure. I also provide regular updates so you know your pet is safe and well cared for while you're away.

About: I have three dogs that I've raised on my own since puppies. An Australian Shepherd (9), an American Bulldog Boxer (8) & a Shihpoo (2). I work from home so adding a few pups into the mix is no hassle at all! I do not walk the dogs they run around the yard and entertain each other. I have a fenced yard! Small but cozy home. Dogs love staying here because it truly feels like a home away from home. 😋 I love sending updates and photos!
