“We were very pleased with our experience with Chelsea and Derrick. Both are very warm individuals and did a great job welcoming and caring for our 1 year old puppy for the day. Their home is on a busy road but which gave some concern but that went away after meeting them and seeing their set up for safety and supervision. Thanks to both for giving Jasper a great and safe experience.”

About: I've grown up with dogs since I was a kid. Currently, I have a dog that I got from a rescue over 7 years ago and he is my baby. You can trust me to take care of your dog like they are my own. I am caring and trustworthy. I have watched friends and family members pets before and looking to help out others! I have mostly open availability over the summer until mid August! I have availability mornings, days, and nights. I'm also available on weekdays and weekends. I have a fenced in yard and a dog that loves to meet new friends! I have extra crates and toys if needed. I can follow your dog's schedule and spend time with them to make them feel comfortable.

About: Hi there! I’m Erin — a full-time teacher during the school year and a full-time dog lover year round. During the summer, I have lots of extra time and flexibility to take your pups on long walks or stop by for drop-in visits when you need a hand. I’ve lived with and cared for dogs my entire life and currently have two of my own, so I understand how important it is to find someone you can trust with your furry family member. I’m calm, friendly, and always take the time to get to know each dog’s unique personality and comfort level. Whether your pup is high-energy or a little more shy, I’ll make sure they feel safe, happy, and cared for. Looking forward to meeting you and your best friend! For the months of July and August I am completely free 7 days a week all day long. During the school year, I work as a teacher so I am at work from around 7:30-3:30. However, my evenings and weekends remain completely free. I have a fenced in yard and 2 happy pups to keep your furry friend company! Dogs are allowed on the furniture and I am happy to let them either roam free downstairs or be put in a kennel when I am not home. I have a gate that keeps my dog from going upstairs when I’m not home, so that can be closed at any time during the day too. Let me know what you prefer and we will make it work in order to let your pet be as comfortable as possible!

About: Hi, I’m Grace! I love animals and have years of experience caring for pets. I treat every pet like my own, giving them lots of love and attention. You can count on me to keep your fur babies happy and safe while you’re away! Pet care is truly a part of my everyday life. Since I work from home, I’m available throughout the day to give your pets the attention and care they deserve. My routine is centered around making sure they are happy and healthy. We start the day with a morning walk, if you prefer that, where they can get plenty of exercise. Throughout the day, I ensure they have a mix of playtime, feeding, and rest, always keeping an eye on their well-being. I am home 90% of the time besides when I leave to go to the gym, not leaving more than an hour or two tops! In addition to outdoor adventures, my home offers a spacious, backyard where pets can run and play safely. I believe in creating a comfortable and engaging environment, so your pets will feel like they are part of the family. Whether it's a quick visit, daily check-ins, or overnight stays, I am dedicated to providing a loving and secure experience for your furry friends. I start my day early, around 6 AM, to let the pets out and ensure they get a good start to their day. I stay up until around 10 PM, making sure they are comfortable and settled in for the night. You can rest assured that with me, your pets are in caring and capable hands, enjoying a routine filled with love, activity, and safety.

“Katie is fantastic. I have two high energy dogs and when I bring them home after spending time with her and they are tired and happy. Katie also sends me pictures of their activities throughout the day. I highly recommend her to take care of your pups!!!”


“Sanibel had an amazing day with Jennifer and Lady Grace! She can’t wait to visit again”


About: I’ve taken care of all sorts of dogs since I was a young child. Neighbors, family and friends have all asked me to pet sit! I now have a 2 year old rescue name Genny! She is very sweet, a big girl at 95lbs but extremely submissive in all situations! She would love a play mate and extra walks! Work from home M-F. On my lunch we always take a walk usually about 2 miles and Genny get plenty of potty breaks and outdoors time! I can follow any type of specific feeding plan and can ensure walks and outdoor time are a focus! I love dogs and would want to make sure your pet was taken care of they way I would want Genny to be!

About: I’ve taken care of cats and dogs, since I was a kid. I understand they are your children. I am comfortable giving oral meds, comfortable learning other routes of medication administration if needed. Currently will only board cats from the same home or young puppies (message for more details) at a time due to other animals in the house. Your fur baby will have their very Owen room with a gate door that is about 6ft tall to keep them safe and comfortable when I am not watching them or letting them out for play time. I will follow your set schedule for feedings and play time. If I am boarding an animal they are my soul focus till pick up time. I offer daily or every other day pictures/video updates of your pet, my phone is always on so you can always reach me about any concerns. I have one cat and two dogs in the house. They will remain separated from your animal at all times for safety and comfort of your beloved pet. All animals in the house are fully vaccinated including kennel cough. I will not accept boarding of unvaccinated cats & dogs for safety.

“Taylor was great with Jax.!”


About: I have been fortunate enough to have had animals most of my life. These have ranged from dogs, rabbits, chickens, horses, cows, and fish. I have volunteered time at a wildlife rehab and also worked a few years at a dog daycare facility that would average about 50 dogs a day. I have a bachelors degree in Animal behavior, ecology and conservation. I have always had a special place in my heart for animals. I currently have 2 rabbits, 2 dogs and 11 chickens. I am a substitute teacher so my schedule is rather flexible. It allows me to arrange my week how I need it. My afternoons are usually pretty open. I will ensure that each pet is safe, secure and well taken care of in the comfort of their own home while providing updates to their families.

“Nancy was amazing! Our dog enjoyed her time playing and hanging out.

“Accommodating, and great communication!”


About: I have had dogs all my life and spent over 20 years as a Pet Groomer both in a shop and mobile. I have had continued education in cat grooming, dog grooming, skin care, etc. I specialized in senior and anxiety dogs. I have had upward of 9 dogs at one time and they did not all get along. I have also owned a diabetic dog. I also have a Reiki background. Currently I am retired from pet grooming and I own another business that is seasonal therefore my schedule is pretty flexible and my availability is pretty open too. I have a small fenced yard in a low traffic community that is good for walks too. I am familiar with crate training and can accommodate that if needed. I also have gates if access needs to be limited to parts of my house. Example, I do have stairs and can block them if pet is unable to do stairs.

About: My whole life I was never able to have pets up until two years ago which is when I got my first girl, Jojo. She changed my life completely and so I had to get her a sister. My love for them is unmatched and even though I don’t have training what I do have is unconditional love and plenty of free time. I recently resigned from my job so I do not have a work schedule to work around so I am able to give my pets as well as yours all the attention and care that they need. I do have a fenced yard so if they need to go outside for potty or play there is no risk of them running off. I also two dogs at home as previously mentioned but I do have a dog gate inside if your pet needs some alone time. I separate my dogs during meal times and sometimes just to give individual attention. Both my dogs are girls and they are sweet and very playful.

“Erin has taken care of my dog many times before she moved and I moved. My dog willow loves her. She is an energetic aussie and would take her on walks and play fetch with her (which she’s obsessed with). She send updates with a photo everyday which helps with being a way from my pup. Willow is always happy to see Erin and I know she’s always in good hands.”

“I cannot say enough wonderful things about Grace —she is truly the sweetest and most trustworthy person you could ever ask to care for your dog.

My dog absolutely adores her and still gets excited every time we pull up to her house! It’s such a comfort knowing my dog is not only safe, but genuinely happy and loved when she’s with Grace . I wholeheartedly recommend her to anyone looking for a dependable and caring dog sitter!”
