Pet Sitting & Drop Ins In Downtown

“cannot say enough good things about [Dog Sitter’s Name]. From the very beginning, communication was clear, prompt, and friendly, which instantly gave me peace of mind. [He/She/They] took the time to understand my dog’s routine, personality, and little quirks, and it really showed in the care provided. Throughout the stay, I received regular updates and photos, and it was obvious that my dog was happy, comfortable, and well-loved. When I came home, everything was spotless, and my pup was relaxed and content (a true sign of great care!). It’s not easy to trust someone with your furry family member, but Jewell exceeded all expectations. Reliable, caring, and professional — I would recommend her to anyone looking for a sitter who treats your dog like their own.”

“I love that I can get away and trust Nicole with our home and little Bailey. She communicates well and goes above and beyond to make our little guy comfortable while we are out of town. She is especially great with dealing with all his senior citizen needs and notifying us of anything. I appreciate the extra kindness she provides and I always go on vacation with a sound mind that Bailey is in good hands.”

About: I’ve been running a “private flight crew” for dogs in my past apartment community for the last 4 years. Now that we’ve moved into a home with a yard, I’m able to expand my guest list and offer more First-Class stays. I specialize in creating a calm, boutique boarding experience with small groups, gentle structure, and tons of personal attention. My background is in real, in-home care for dogs of all personalities — seniors, shy pups, social butterflies, and everything in between — and I focus on safe introductions, cozy routines, and individualized care so every pup feels secure and completely at home. You can also catch us on instagram - CanineconciergeSRQ Pet care fits naturally into my daily routine — it’s part of my everyday “flight plan.” I work from home and stay hands-on throughout the day, so the pups enjoy consistent attention, yard time, play, treats, and snuggles. My husband, Riley, is also a co-pilot in our little operation, and for reasons unknown, every pup decides he’s their instant favorite — I’ve accepted it. Together we keep a calm, steady rhythm with morning potty breaks, midday activity, afternoon naps, and evening walks or yard zoomies. Because we only host a small number of dogs at a time, each pup gets the time, structure, and companionship they need to feel completely comfortable and cared for. When pups stay in our home, they live right alongside us — part of the household, never tucked away or left alone in a separate space. I tailor each dog’s care to match their routine and personality: slow introductions for shy pups, structured play for energetic guests, cozy rest areas for nappers, and plenty of enrichment throughout the day. I supervise all interactions to keep the environment peaceful and positive, and I follow your feeding, medication, and comfort instructions exactly as you share them. Riley is also involved in the day-to-day care (and yes, he somehow becomes everyone’s favorite within minutes). With only a small number of dogs at a time, we’re able to give each pup thoughtful, individualized attention and create a safe, familiar, truly home-like experience.

About: As a dedicated pet sitter, I bring a personalized approach to every furry friend I care for. I specialize in working with all ages—from playful puppies needing training and structure to senior pets requiring extra patience and attention. With a keen understanding of animal behavior and years of experience, I ensure your pet feels loved, safe, and stress-free. Whether it’s administering medications, reinforcing positive training habits, or providing plenty of playtime and cuddles, I treat your pet as if they were my own! I currently work as a registered nurse so I am available 4 days a week all day long! I am an active person who enjoys walks and spending time outside in my free time. In my home or yours, I create a safe, loving, and stress-free environment tailored to your pet’s unique needs. I stick to their regular routines, including feeding schedules, exercise, and potty breaks, to ensure they feel comfortable and secure. In my home, I provide plenty of space for play, cozy areas for rest, and constant supervision. If I’m caring for your pet in your home, I go above and beyond to maintain a clean and familiar setting while respecting your space. From daily walks to cuddle sessions and updates with photos and messages, your pet will feel loved and cared for every step of the way!

About: I’ve always had a deep love for animals and have two of my cats who do not currently live with me. one I’ve cared for over six years. I’m easy to work with, dependable, and especially patient with senior pets. I gained a lot of experience helping care for my grandma’s senior dog, as well as two crazy pugs (so i can handle anything). Whether it’s dogs or cats, I treat every pet like my own and make sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while you’re away. I’m currently working Friday, Saturday, and Sunday! Saturday i am busy all day, but Friday and Sunday available after 6. I am free to help with whatever you need throughout the week. When caring for pets in their home, I treat them like family. I carefully follow any care instructions, feeding, walks, medication, and spend quality time giving them attention and comfort to help them feel safe and loved while their owners are away.

My goal is to offer professional, personalized care to your pets in the comfort of their own home. Meal prep, walks, medication, play time, and general care are included; and of course, I will always text/email you photos of your pet if requested. :) I have experience with large dogs, elderly dogs, food aggression, social anxiety, and abused pets - whatever the situation, everyone’s needs will be met.

Former animal rescue volunteer, previous dog-sitting, breed-specific training. Why I love dog sitting I've loved dogs since I was a little girl! When I was growing up, my grandmother and extended family took in rescue pets; so I learned to love and appreciate animals from a young age! I work 9am-5pm, hybrid remote. :) Non-profit HR is my field, but I have quite a bit of free time out of office when I decide to take it. I will reach out for an initial visit/consultation in your home or in a public place so that you can get to know me, ask me questions about myself and my experience, and develop a rapport that you can feel good about. My goal is to put your mind at ease, whatever that looks like for you.

About: I've taken care of dogs for the last eight years, including puppies and energetic dogs. I've got lots of toys, treats, and time to give your best friend :) and honestly I love dogs so much I would do this just for the joy of seeing dogs. I'm free every week day after 2, and all day each weekend. If boarding is needed during weekday mornings, they can be taken out at least every three hours. Otherwise, I can spend as much time with your pup as needed I usually play a lot with the pup, or take it on a walk. I love a good cuddle session, or even just hanging out together on the couch. Personally I feed my dog every morning and evening, and provide plenty of time in our fenced-in backyard to explore and run.

“Caroline comes with a wealth of experience and love for our four-legged babies. She was a major help to us during a really hard time and provided amazing care and comfort to our littles while we were away. She’s a great communicator, pays attention to details, and tries to help problem-solve when things pop up (one of my littles can be a bit, but she loved them all the same). It’s very evident to us she really cares and can handle a lot. We put her through the wringer, not by choice, and she took us on with compassion and professionalism.”

About: Been taking care of animals since I was a kid. I’ve had cats and digs growing up my entire life! I love to be active and walk and have free time and would love to be around animals I am Flexible all week and weekend when in town. I do travel often. Want to stay busy when I am in town and love animals! I can do whatever is needed. I have a fenced in yard and crate of my own. I only crate mine now when needed but that is not often as he is older. I only have one of my dogs with me at my home as my other dog is with my mother in my home town.

About: I have thoroughly enjoyed taking care of different dogs from a variety of breeds and ages for most of my life. Neighbors, friends, and family know that they can rely on me to care for their fur babies! I have also worked on a farm with a variety of different animals including puppies along with working for a dog walking company. I am a spiritual life coach in the process of expanding my business. I work from home and am my own boss which gives me a lot of flexibility in creating my schedule. I do have time slots when i'm working with clients but besides that I am able to be quite flexible based on your needs. I love to connect with the pets ahead of time to get to know their personality along with meeting the parents and seeing if i'm a good fit. I care for pets in my client’s home and learn what the pets’ essential needs are and what I should do when they demonstrate certain behaviors.
