“Vanya is absolutely wonderful!! She was very kind, and made sure to send plenty of photos of my fur baby on their adventures! I will definitely be contacting her in the future when I need her! Also, Rosco absolutely loves her!!”

About: I am available in the evenings and weekends so I can be with your pets at all time and tend to their needs. I have owned dogs my whole life as well as cats. I have also grown up on a farm so I am very comfortable caring for large farm animals as well. I have 2 dogs of my own who are both very dog friendly and 1 cat who sometimes thinks she's a dog but doesn't care for other cats as she was attacked by other cats before we took her in. I love all animals and breeds don't matter to me. Your fur child will be treated and cared for like they are my own! I do not have a fenced in yard but I do have long leads, go for walks and go to the dog parks frequently so your pet would get plenty of exercise.
“From the minute our dog met Morgan I could tell things would go well. Morgan was very timely and sent pictures and details about each visit with our dog Leo. I was out of town and when I asked if she could do a couple of extra things to care for Leo she happily agreed. She is very trustworthy, attentive to details and caring. I look forward to having her help with Leo again in the future.”

About: Hi, I’m Madison! I’m a professional canine trainer, behaviorist, groomer, and full-time caretaker with 12 years of hands-on experience. I’m certified in dog behavior, temperament, body language, and care—so I understand what dogs need to feel safe, confident, and happy. I create enriching, balanced environments where every dog can thrive. From playful activities to structured downtime and personalized attention for pups with unique needs, I tailor each day to your dog’s individual personality. With me, your furry family member is treated like my own—showered with love, positive guidance, and plenty of tail-wagging fun! I give every dog my full attention, making sure they feel safe, loved, and totally at ease. Most days, you’ll find us outside soaking up the fresh air—running, playing, and exploring together. And if you ever wonder where I am, I’m probably out back with the pack having a blast. When winter hits, we move the fun into our heated, pup-friendly garage. It’s set up just for them, with turf or rubber mats for comfort and tons of toys to keep tails wagging. No matter the weather, your dog will always have a cozy, engaging, and joyful space to call their home-away-from-home. Your pup’s comfort and happiness are always my top priority! Our fully fenced-in backyard is designed with your dog’s comfort and enjoyment in mind, featuring pools, toys, water bowls, and all the essentials for a fun and enriching experience. Each dog is fed separately to maintain a peaceful and individualized routine. For dogs who prefer more privacy, we provide private rooms to ensure they have a quiet space away from the other dogs when needed. We are committed to providing a safe, comfortable, and personalized environment for every dog in our care.
About: Hi! I am a second year college student, looking for an extra side hustle! I absolutely adore dogs, I have two, and one in heaven. I am just in school and work as a server on the side, so my schedule is slightly inconsistent but I have some free time every single day no matter what. I can also adjust hours at the restaurant to fit clients needs! I live at home right now, which is also quite lonely, so I wouldn’t mind taking care of some cute fur babies in my extra time!!! I only have one in person class, 9-11 on mondays! I work 3-6 days a week at the restaurant, varying from morning shifts to night- however I am totally okay adjusting my availability for the next week as long as I know the pet sitting schedule!! My schedule is pretty flexible! I have two dogs and one cat. We have an electric fence, but our dogs are pretty good and honestly don’t really need it. I get them tons of exercise everyday (at least one walk and one dog park visit) and I love them more than anything!

About: I have a lot of hands on experience caring for both pets and people, which naturally carries over into how I care for animals. I spend my free time volunteering at the SPCA, so I’m very comfortable with all types of personalities and breeds. I’m also a former hospital worker and foster mom, so being attentive, reliable, and calm in different situations comes very naturally to me. I understand how important it is to trust the person staying in your home, and I treat both your pets and your space with respect and care. My goal is always to make your pets feel safe, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I work a couple hours a day from home, therefore I am able to do bathroom breaks and playtime all throughout the day! I’m also available to adhere to strict feeding schedules and administering medication. I will watch the dogs in my home, and pending weather, take them on at least one walk per day. We also have a fenced in back yard for lots of potty breaks. Your pup will get more than enough affection and attention while in our home. We are also open letting them sleep in our room at night if that’s what makes them feel the safest!
