“Annabel did a great job for my 2 cats while I was away for a week. She sent great pictures and even cleaned up when they got into a treat bag one day. Highly recommend!”

“Kate did a fantastic job taking care of my two pups while I was away. She was always on time (or even early), sent very detailed notes about each drop in visit and many pictures. I felt very confident that my pups were in good hands and from the pictures could tell they were very happy. Thank you Kate!!”

A little bit about myself, I live with husband and 2 fur babies. I have owned various size and breed of dogs since I was in elementry schools. Right now I have 3 small dogs( all were adopted), one is a senior and one is handicapped. They go out for walks at least 30 min per day in the parks, and I groom them myself. We trained them well and they dont beg by the table, they dont bark for no reasons, and they are well socialized. I am so grateful for able to take care them. One of the dog is 15 years old she got adopted by us at age 7, she came with anxiety issues. we retrained her to relieve herself outdoor, she learned fast, and she was rehabilitated into a wonderful, fun, loving dog. The handicapped one has a birth defects but he is the sweetest dog I ever owned, he is well behaved and very smart. I want to pour more time into taking care of these amazing pets, they are not just dogs, they are our family, companions and true friends I work as arts and craft teacher at elementry school (5 hours per week). I also teach 3 hours per week at the YMCA. I have ample time to take care of the dogs. At my home the dogs are being monitored with servalliace camera. I let them out every 2 -4 hours during the day if I am home. Our yard is fenced. They get 2 meals a day. some treats. I follow clients instruction on taking care of dogs.

About: I am nurturing, very reliable and absolutely adore all of my fur friends! I find so much joy walking with my client's doggos. I take care of them as if they are my own and do my best to honor any and all requests. For doggy daycare and for boarding, I create a safe, relaxing & playful home for your dog with loads of love & snuggles mixed in. I have a 5 yr old cairn terrier who gets along wonderfully with other dogs. My furry friends make themselves right at home in our house and outside in our fully fenced-in backyard. We also live in a safe walkable neighborhood that is very pet-friendly for dog walks. I have been around dogs my whole life but have been professionally walking dogs and boarding dogs part time for about 2 years. I am now looking to expand my clientele and would to love to set up a meet & greet or talk over the phone! **For doggy daycare, please note, I only have dogs that are great around children and other dogs and have updated vaccines.** For doggy daycare, your pup will never be left home alone for more than 2 hours (I can absolutely make accommodations to be home more if requested). I also love to take requests for dog walks M-Th. Pet friends are in a comfortable and loving environment here, free to play & relax indoors or out in our fully fenced yard. Sleeping preference is whatever they like best. We love to play, go for walks and chill with all our doggo friends!

“Cassidy was amazing!! I needed someone to check on my cat while I was out of the country. It was such a relief knowing that Cassidy was keeping an eye on everything and giving Katniss plenty of attention while I was away. She kept me updated everyday and was super accessible for communicating about a few questions that came up while I was gone. I would not hesitate to ask Cassidy to watch my cat again, or any other pets for that matter! Highly recommend!”

About: My love of dogs led me to start a dog walking business when I was only 10 yrs old. Once I finally convinced my parents to get a dog, I was 15 and we ended up with two bichon-malteses who were the loves of my life. As an adult, my career has me traveling frequently so I haven’t become a pet owner, but I continue to dogsit for friends and neighbors because I love the companionship when I’m home. I am committed to providing your dog a comfortable home away from home where they will be well cared for and loved. I work from home Mondays and Fridays so can be available for care for a long weekend (Fri-Sat-Sun-Mon). My availability may be limited based on work travel. I live in a dog friendly building, where there is greenery and walking paths around the building for daily walks and enjoy going for longer walks in nearby parks.

About: Hi there! I’m a lifelong animal lover who grew up around dogs and have years of experience caring for pets of all ages, especially senior pups who need a little extra love and support. I cared for my mini dachshund from childhood through her older years and have looked after many pets with medical conditions, so I’m confident giving medication, staying on top of routines, and tuning into what each pet needs. As a therapist, I bring a calm, loving, and attuned presence to every visit. I treat every pet with reliability, warmth, and lots of snuggles. Whether it’s playtime, a slow walk, or just company while you’re away, I’m here to care for your pet with heart. I work remotely and make my own schedule as a therapist, so I’m able to easily build pet care into my daily routine. I’m home for most of the day, which means plenty of time for walks, play, feeding, and check-ins. I’m used to structuring my schedule around care and consistency, so your pet would get reliable attention, supervision, and lots of affection throughout the week. I’m especially experienced with small dogs who are curious, clever, and love to squeeze into tight spaces, so I know firsthand how important it is to stay attentive. I make sure pets are always in my line of sight or that I know exactly where they are at all times. I also check in with clients about house rules, including which areas are pet-friendly or off-limits, and I work with them to create a safe, comfortable environment. Whether it’s keeping doors closed, watching for sneaky hiding spots, or just being extra mindful, I prioritize your pet’s safety and wellbeing like they’re my own.

“Nicole was really great! Our dog can be nervous around new people but he seemed to really like her. We felt confident she’d take good care of him.”

About: I’ve grown up with dogs my entire childhood. So I understand the attention they need like routines or quirks they have which may require more attention to detail. I am totally in for the love of the game. Be they puppies or senior dogs i am reliable for quality care. I am here for those who have a busier afternoon or evening. If you need an extra hand I am here to help you out, I am the kind of pet sitter who will respect the pets autonomy and follow the owners instructions of care. No request is to outlandish when it comes to caring those we love. I understand the uniqueness pets personalities and why special requests are needed if explain.

Tess K.

About: I am highly reliable and flexible. I create genuine bonds with furry friends, and make sure they are well taken care of in your absence. I have provided in home pet sitting, drop by, and walking services. I work full-time and have a flexible schedule. Depending on day and timing, I can fit pet care into my schedule with ease. I would prefer more notice (a week or more) if possible but also have the flexibility to accept last minute asks. I understand things happen out of our control especially emergencies so I accommodate when I can. In a clients home I care for pets by doing feedings, giving daily vitamins, medications, etc. I give lots of cuddles, carve out play time, and take on walks. I’ve pet sit for highly active dogs, as well as low activity and I’ll dogs. For caring for the house, I take in mail/packages and provide cleaning (leaving the space in the condition it was in).
