About: Hello! I am Kelly and I love dogs and birds and nature. I am a stay at home mom to two humans and two four legged fluffies. I have a fully fenced in yard and love being outside playing with dogs, or taking them on walks or hikes around the area. Send me a message and let's plan how I can help you with your pet needs! I'm a stay at home mom so I will have plenty of time to care for and give all the attention your pet deserves. I can board them on weekdays or weekends, or come to your place for a house visit and potty break. I have a fully fenced in yard with plenty of space for the dogs to run and play in. I have two friendly dogs who love playing with new friends. My yard is also divided if you would rather your pet have their own play area. As for visit to your place, I have my own reliable vehicle and I work on my own schedule.

About: I am reliable, loving, and attentive, ensuring pets feel safe, happy, and well-cared for while their owners are away. I feel pets are part of the family and I do allow them on my furniture and give lots of snuggles and kisses. I have over 26 years of experience raising my own pets to identify sickness and can administer meds (including insulin shots) if needed. Your fur babies will be my top priority and I promise to care for them like they are my own. I am available for watching your fur baby in my home to include overnight or coming to your house (not overnight), walks, or other care you may need. My schedule is flexible and will accommodate your needs. I have a privacy fenced yard and 4 sweet pups of my own to keep your dog(s) company. My property has multiple video cameras for security and I can send you photos and videos while you are away or FaceTime with you so you can see your babies are having fun and being well taken care of and loved. I understand pet care very well as I have had 8 fur babies previous to the 4 I have currently from big dogs to little dogs. I am very aware of changes in behavior or if fur babies aren’t feeling well and will communicate with you if I think your baby is not feeling well.

“Emily is wonderful and Layla immediately warmed up to Emily which is wonderful and gave me peace while on travels. I highly recommend Emily, she is a warm person, easy to talk to, professional and a wonderful person. I will ask Emily to care for Layla with my future travels that I'm not able to take Layla. Thank you Emily for a wonderful job.”


“Kristen did a great job taking care of our pets for over a week. She was fast to respond to our request and was an excellent communicator. Really appreciated her updates. Would definitely recommend her.”


About: I'm Hannah! I have two boys, ages 3 and 7. My kids are great with dogs as we have been doing Rover for over 6 years. We are dog lovers and we would love to have your doggy in our home while you are away! I can offer as much or as little outside time that’s needed. Your baby will be in great hands while you’re away and you won’t miss a beat with all the pictures that are sent your way. Your dog will get a lot of outside time, exercise, play time, snuggles and freedom. Please feel free to message me with any questions or special requests. (: I have a flexible work schedule and work from home 3 days a week. We love to be outdoors playing but are also completely fine staying inside and relaxing. We treat any dog in our home like family. We try to make them feel as comfortable as possible as we understand that being out of their home and away from their owners can cause different behaviors such as anxiety, sadness, hyperness, etc.

“Rebecca gave our two pups walks rain or shine while we were gone on vacation for 10 days. Great communication and she was able to make friends with our little mini golden doodle who barks at everyone! Would definitely consider using Rebecca again in the future!”


“I messaged Jaden and she was able to come that same evening for a meet and great, and start walks as early as the next day. I highly recommend her! Jaden has been walking my puppy Toby for 3 weeks now. On time, great communication, super flexible and has great availability. Will continue to work with Jaden moving forward.”

About: Hi, I’m Kellie! I’m a lifelong animal lover with a soft spot for furry companions of all kinds. As a dedicated pet parent and experienced caregiver, I understand just how important it is to know your pets are safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. Whether your pet is high-energy, laid-back, or needs a little extra TLC, they’ll be in good hands with me. I treat every pet like family, and I’m committed to providing a calm, comfortable environment and personalized attention. Whether you need daily drop-ins or dog walks, I’m here to make sure your pets feel loved, secure, and right at home. Let’s chat—I’d love to meet you and your four-legged family member! I work from home so I am available any time. My 8 year old Shih-Poo, Harley, is my baby and I am fortunate enough to be able to spend most of my day with her. I have a fenced back yard and pet friendly home. My Shih-Poo is good with other dogs and loves to run and play. I live in a pet friendly community with plenty of community walking paths. I will follow your instructions and wishes to the letter.

About: I grew up with dogs and have trained up two puppies in the last five years, one of them was a hunting dog. Currently I have a four-year-old tabby named Coco! I love to be active and play outside but I’m also happy to just sit and love on your fur babies, throw around toys or whatever makes your animals happy! I typically work Monday through Thursday until about 3 PM. I’m happy to do evening care if you’re working late or if you need someone for a long weekend to pop in! I am a big fan of the philosophy, meet people or in this case pets where they are. I pride myself on being respectful, and will essentially do whatever is asked of me, to make your animal or fur baby the most comfortable!

About: I’ve taken care of dogs for years for people I know, but I wanna help other dog owners who need help to take care of them too I’m an actress, so my job is very patchy. This is my side gig so I’m very open and available! Need cancelled 2 days before I love them like they’re my own and I’m very gentle and I know every dog is different in needs and health wise, I wanna make sure they’re cared for and safe

About: I have experience with many dogs in my family. I love going outdoors and going on walks on a daily basis. Having a companion would be perfect. I work a part time job and I am a college student. I am currently on summer break so I have plenty of time to take care of your fur-babies. I can be patient and reassuring, meeting new people can be a scary experience for a lot of pets. I can make sure to maintain the schedule the pets are used to as-well to make them feel more comfortable.

We trust her completely - she takes such good care of our fur baby that we call her his “Auntie Taylor.” Our baby is 70 lbs and he can be difficult to handle, but she reinforces his training, keeps him happy, and takes great care of our home too. Taylor has lots of experience with dogs and cats from raising her own and from training hunting dogs - if you need her to keep your dog sharp while you’re away, she’s great at it. Our fur baby LOVES Taylor and I know yours will too. I could not recommend her more!”
