About: I have been involved in taking care of dogs since I was a child as we always a had a pet int the family. I addition to that I've been volunteering with a animal welfare organization for 2 years now where I assisted in the transportation of dogs that have traveled long-distances to meet with adoptive families. I am available to walk and care of dogs any opportunity where I am not at work. Work Schedule: Wednesday 4pm to 8pm, Friday 4pm to 8pm, and Saturday 12pm to 6pm. I can care for pets by feeding them, playing with them, walking them, taking them places, and with athletic dogs making sure they get a workout.

“Josh is wonderful, he was great with my dog Aurora she is better with men now from the time Josh has spent with her and I appreciate that. He can walk Aurora anytime he like, she very happy with him and comfortable, so thank u for everything. 🌟🌟🌟😊🌟”


About: I’ve had experience with pets of many ages. Puppies/kittens, adults, and senior pets. I’ve had my own dogs and cats since I was 3 years old, and friends and family trust me with the care of theirs. I also have 2 gerbils! I love caring for animals no matter what it takes. I currently work part time, so weekdays preferably in the morning and afternoon work best for me. I could also fit some time in the mornings on weekends. I can take your pet on walks outside, in your yard, and use crates in the home if needed. I can use whatever resource in your home you’d like me to.

“We had a great time meeting Greg for our first meet and greet/walk. He even made Pinto feel at ease - and that’s a tough sell. We are looking forward to booking future walks and pet sitting with Greg.”


“Sharon is awesome! I’m so happy we found her to take care of our new puppy. She comes to take him out and play with him during the day so he isn’t alone all day. Felt super comfortable with her right out of the gate and know my puppy Finn is in good hands!”


About: I’ve watched over dogs for years, i have 2 dogs of my own and they are my everything. Your fur babies will be in great hands! Currently working part time so I have a bit of a flexible schedule to accommodate and spend time with pups and take them on walks or house sit! I have a big house and a fenced yard with very sweet loving dogs to keep your fur babies company! They are free to roam the house and if crafting your dog is your preference, we can make that happen as well! i have 2 roommates who also have dogs of their own which are included in the photos! one is a lab and one is an Aussie. They get along so well and it’s always a playful environment! If your dog loves being around other dogs to calm the separation anxiety then they’ll love being here! If not, we can always keep them separated :)

“Brandi helped take care of Tara when I was in a bind and on a holiday weekend! Really appreciate the level of communication, willingness to help, and professionalism. Will definitely book with Brandi again. Life saver!!”
