About: I’ve been caring for dogs of all breeds, sizes, and personalities for over 15 years. Neighbors, friends, and family have trusted me to walk, feed, bathe, and care for their pets while they’re away. I’m attentive, patient, and great at reading animal behavior, whether that means giving energetic dogs plenty of exercise or providing calm, gentle care for seniors or anxious pets. I treat every pet as if they were my own. I work part-time and set my own schedule, which allows me to be very flexible and accommodating to my clients’ needs. I’m able to adjust my availability for walks, drop-ins, or extended care, including weekdays and weekends, and I prioritize clear communication to ensure your pet’s routine is followed as closely as possible. I have a fenced-in yard and prioritize a calm, safe environment for all pets in my care. I have two cats who are kept comfortably separated with their own space when dogs are visiting, as I understand transitions can be challenging. I’m very mindful of introductions, happy to crate dogs if needed, and always follow owner preferences and routines to ensure pets feel secure and well cared for.

“We have had Chelsea in our lives for over a year. She has been with us for our fostering and a recent adoption of another kitty. We have a total of 6 pets (1 dog and 5 kitties) she looks after when we are on vacation. During the week, she comes over 3 times a week to walk our lab. She is definitely an adopted member of our family. Our lab goes flying through the house when she hears the front door unlock and several of our cats will even come running. Everyone in our house loves Chelsea. I truly cannot say enough wonderful things about her not only as a sitter, but as a person. You will not be disappointed with the care and love she gives your furbabies.”

About: I have always loved animals since I was little, and they have always seem drawn to me. My wife and I currently have 3 dogs and a cat at home, and they are family. I have experience with all different types of dogs, and cats as well since I was a kid. I will treat your animals just as I treat mine at home. I watch my toddler son full-time during the week. However, he is very familiar and comfortable with dogs because was have 3 at home. I am happy to try to accommodate different times of the day for the week and weekend. I treat my animals at home like the fur babies that they are! They love to be let outside to run around and play in our back yard for awhile. I also give them walks every so often, and they don’t ever miss a meal!

About: I have had pets my whole life! I have experience with cats, dogs, horses, chickens, fish, frogs, turtles, and small furry critters such as hamsters and rabbits. I Have cared for new born puppies and kittens when the mother was not able and elderly pets that need a little extra love. Pets that are very energetic or relaxed. Pets that are having a hard time medically and need fluids or pain medications. I have cared for wounded animals and healthy ones. I'm available most days during work hours. When your fur baby needs love and care during the day while you are away I can be there for pets, walks, snacks, medications, a simple check in and more. Every animal is it's own self and all need different care. When pet sitting while friends or family are at work or on trips I always make sure the pet has a good long session of play, affection, walk or forms of exercise, clean and full water and food dishes. Check for any accidents that need cleaned up or litter boxes that need tending. Then always be sure to double check the yard and home locks are secure before leaving.

About: My husband and I have been dog owners our entire lives. We currently have a full size poodle, who is very friendly with dogs and humans. We have the availability and set up to care for your dog! I am a teacher on summer break and have open availability to care for your dog. Currently, our poodle goes on walks 2-3x a day, and is given lots of love, attention and play throughout the day. While I would be in and out during the day I have more than enough time to give your dog adequate exercise and attention. We have a fenced in backyard to let the dog run around and be outside throughout the day. Simultaneously enjoy taking our dog on daily walks or outdoor adventure to a nearby park or path on the weekends for extra exercise and socialization. Our dog has free roam of the house and is able to be on the furniture as he pleases.

About: Most of my life I have had pets. In January of 22, ago our beautiful black cat died, and I am missing the companionship immensely. We travel frequently, so we have decided to remain petless for the time being. I would love to give the same love to your pet as I gave to our Judo. I am retired, so my availability is frequent and flexible except when traveling. I can do drop ins or provide overnight care. May also consider providing care in our home. We kept our cats indoors only, but we have a great screened in deck where they could watch the birds and squirrels. If in your home, I would prefer indoor only to avoid worry. I love walking, so if I am dog sitting, they would get plenty of exercise!!

My house has a small backyard and I am also available to do drop ins at the dogs own home. The area is very quiet and would be comfortable for another dog to be in. If I am caring for someone else's dog I plan on being home for the time I'm watching the dog so that it will be well taken care of.
