About: I’ve been providing dependable, loving pet care for 6+ years, and what sets me apart is the level of comfort, patience, and genuine attention I give every pet I watch. I focus on creating a calm, safe environment where pets feel relaxed and cared for while their owners are away not just “watched.” I have experience caring for pets of all personalities and energy levels, including playful puppies, anxious pets, and senior dogs who need a gentler pace and extra patience. I’m attentive to routines, feeding schedules, medications, potty breaks, exercise, and making sure every pet receives plenty of affection and companionship. I also believe communication is important, so I provide regular updates and photos to help owners feel reassured while they’re away. My goal is always to treat every pet like they’re part of my own family. 🐾 I do work a full-time 9–5 job during the week, but pet care still fits very naturally into my routine and schedule. I make it a priority to return home directly after work to spend time with the pets in my care, and I typically only leave for necessities like work or grabbing food. I’m very routine oriented and make sure pets receive consistent attention, potty breaks, feeding, exercise, affection, and companionship throughout the day and evening. On weekends and outside of work hours, I’m home much more often and able to dedicate even more time to them. My goal is always to make pets feel comfortable, cared for, and relaxed while their owners are away. 🐾 I provide care exclusively in my client’s home because I believe pets are often the most comfortable in a familiar environment with their normal routine. Keeping pets in their own space helps reduce stress and allows them to feel safe, relaxed, and secure while their owners are away. I always take the time to learn each pet’s routine, personality, feeding schedule, exercise needs, and any special instructions to ensure they receive the best care possible. Safety and trust are extremely important to me, so I treat every client’s home with respect and care while also making sure their pets receive plenty of attention, affection, potty breaks, playtime, and companionship throughout my stay. I also provide regular updates and photos so owners can feel reassured knowing their pets are happy, safe, and well cared for. 🐾

About: I'm very outgoing I love my dog like I birth her myself. She is 4 years old now she's very spoiled thanks to Me I have no children so I treat her as such. I want her to have more same companionship this gives me an opportunity to allow her to play and have fun while I research another breed of dog to get. I am available 7days a week I’m off for the summer and I don’t return back to work until August. My job is to ensure that all Dogs will be treated like my very own. I've had many years caring for animals as I took an interest with all kinds at a very early age. I would love to show my compassion giving the opportunity to. All services are on a 24 hour time frame the clock starts the time you drop them off until the time you pick them up. Example if you are dropping off at 8a.m the pick up time is From 8a.m-8a.m the very next morning if at any point you need a late pick up the fee will be an additional boarding fee price. How much will be determined on how long over the initial time they would need to stay I’m very reasonable and understanding. I look forward to services many fur Babies in the future. “Please leave a review” I have open availability Monday-Friday. Once requested a meet and greet we can see if I’m a good fit then we move on to scheduling and booking. I have a fenced yard and open play area for the pups to play in.

About: I have taken care of my own yorkies for 17 years and also had friends ask me to babysit their babies and of course my babies relied on me for fresh water, meals, grooming, nail cutting and much more. Outside-never alone, walks, play and especially brushing and petting on my lap. Lots of love I'm retired and home all day, with exceptions of Doc visits. When I am not home Hope stays at the house with any babies that I have in the home. I will be taking the babies out and be with them the entire time they are outside. I will play with them and have them sit in my lap if they choose to. Or anything else the owner would suggest. The babies are allowed on my furniture and to sleep in bed with me if they choose to.

Shelly was great with my 2 year old Pitbull Dalmatian mix, I highly recommend! Shelly came for a meet & greet on very short notice & impressed me immediately. She was very gentle & comforting to my timid, reactive, & nervous momma from the 1st moment they met! Shelly is punctual, trustworthy, & very good with communicating (even checked how many treats she should be giving?) to owners! I will 100% sure have Shelly sit for my baby again! Thank You Shelly!!

About: Hi there, my name is Tyler and I've lived with dogs my whole life and I absolutely love them. Over the years I've had three big dogs that were all golden retrievers and one small schnauzer. I would love to take care of your pets, when you are unable to take care of them yourself! Prior to any booking, I like to meet with the owners and their pets to get to know them a little better, and ensure we are all comfortable with the arrangements. Your dogs health, safety and wellbeing are always my highest priorities and I love sending pictures and videos and other updates, to keep you informed, and provide you with plenty of peace of mind while you're away. If you think I sound like I might be a good fit, please send me a quick message and we can set up a meet and greet!

About: I have 5 pets, 3 dogs and 2 cats! Having so many pets has taught me the skills needed to take good care of them! I am a college student looking for summer jobs, so I am very flexible. I should be available most weekdays, but definitely on weekends this summer. I have a fenced yard. My dogs are always indoors unless they have to go to the bathroom or want to play outside, so I watch out for them a lot. My cats are always indoors, but I am always aware of where they are to take good care of them.
