About: I've cared for dogs and cats of all ages and sizes since I was young. Friends, family, and neighbors trust me for walking, feeding, and day care. I have experience with puppies, senior pets, and administering medications, and I always treat every animal like my own. Pet care is a natural part of my daily routine—I plan my part-time schedule around walks, drop-ins, and sitting so pets get the attention they deserve. I'm available most mornings, and on Mondays and Tuesdays I can offer full-day care. Whether it's a quick walk or a full day of sitting, I’m committed to making pets feel safe and loved. In my client’s home, I make sure pets feel safe and comfortable by sticking to their usual routines. I follow all care instructions closely—whether it’s feeding, walking, playtime, or administering medication. I keep the space clean and always give pets lots of love and attention so they feel relaxed while you're away.

About: Special Notes: 1.) I currently have a TWO (2) night minimum stay. 2.) In order to provide the very best personalized care, I sit for only ONE pet at a time. The only exception is for two babies from the same family. It is my pleasure to offer care for your furbaby. I have one sweet dog who enjoys having friends come and visit. I'll take excellent care of your baby while you’re away. Your loved one will be kept indoors except to go to the bathroom in my backyard area, which is fenced. However, I don’t leave unattended pups outside. If your pooch prefers to be outside, I may not be a good fit. I do have a gated patio in back where the dogs can play when the weather is nice. My house is large enough for your doggy to roam and not feel confined. We like to play indoor games like hide and seek with toys, foraging for snacks, ball and gentle tug of war. When the weather is nice, daily walks can be scheduled for your pup. Sometimes we like to drive to different areas for a change of scenery to walk and play. I'm extremely dependable. I will treat your baby as my own and you'll have peace of mind when he/she is with me. I look forward to the privilege of caring for your furbaby. I’m available full time to care for your pet. I’m hands on and your pup will not be left unattended for long periods of time. I do run errands, but am never away more than an hour or so. Your pet will be kept indoors with my Lola, other than to go outside to potty, or to take a walk. There are no pesticides used inside my home or in the area the pups go potty. I’m constantly monitoring for safety concerns within my home.


18. Jesse P.
“To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to wholeheartedly recommend Jesse for any pet care service. Our dog, Bailey, had the privilege of being under Jesse’s care for over two weeks, and I can confidently say that it was one of the best decisions we’ve ever made. From the outset, Jesse showcased unparalleled professionalism and a genuine affection for animals. Bailey, who is typically shy and takes time to warm up to new people, was instantly drawn to Jesse, which speaks volumes about his ability to connect with pets. One aspect that particularly stood out was Jesse’s commitment to keeping us updated. We received daily photos, videos, and reports about Bailey’s activities, meals, and overall mood. This not only gave us peace of mind but also allowed us to enjoy our vacation knowing our fur baby was in excellent hands. Furthermore, Jesse introduced Bailey to skatejoring, a fun activity we hadn’t explored before. Bailey absolutely loved the experience, and it’s something we’re excited to continue with him in the future. Upon our return, it was evident that Bailey was not only well-taken care of but also truly cherished. Jesse’s home was immaculate, and Bailey seemed healthier, happier, and more vibrant than ever. In conclusion, I cannot recommend Jesse highly enough. His dedication, expertise, and undeniable love for animals make him an outstanding choice for anyone seeking top-tier pet care services. Warm Regards, Alex Richardson”
