About: I grew up on a farm surrounded by all kinds of animals, so caring for pets has always felt natural to me. From a young age, I learned how to read different personalities, respect boundaries, and make animals feel safe and comfortable. That experience still guides how I care for pets today. I currently share my home with two dogs. One senior at 12, a kind and spunky Shepherd mix named Ozzy. A younger at 8, a gentle and playful Golden Retriever named Clint. I also have two rabbits named Sam and Frodo ( who Basically rule the house). So I’m familiar with different ages, energy levels, and routines. I understand how important it is to notice the small things. Keeping a calm environment, following feeding schedules, and making sure each pet gets the kind of attention that suits them best. Whether I’m walking a dog, checking in on a bunny, or helping a nervous pet settle in, I bring patience, warmth, and steady care. My goal is always to make your pet feel secure and genuinely looked after while you’re away. *BOARDING I do accept multiple dogs at a time! I ensure that all dogs I take in are friendly with other animals. If I feel a dog will not feel safe with my current pets I will inform the owner of this concern. It’s always maximum fun when boarding multiple dogs 😊
“I am really happy to have found Elena to take care of my dog while I traveled. She is a great communicator, shows up as scheduled, was very flexible and easy to work with, and all of my pets were very comfortable around her. I was so happy to have peace of mind while away and will definitely use Elena again in the future. Thanks Elena!”

About: Hello, I've been a furrent for 6 years now and I've also taken cared of my sisters dogs. So I will treat your baby how I treat my baby! I'm currently working at home so I will be attentive to your baby's needs. Boarding/Day Care won't be a service I can offer at the moment, but the rest of the services I can do! it's at the clients home so the pet would be more comfortable so playing, eating, potty will be better for their pet(s) since they won't be stress.
About: I’ve grown up with dogs my whole life, from Golden Retrievers, to Lhasa Apsos, to rescue mixes, so I’m comfortable with a wide range of personalities and needs. I’ve helped train two dogs and enjoy reinforcing good habits, whether that’s basic commands, leash manners, or just keeping consistency with what you’re already working on. I’m happy to incorporate light training into walks or visits if that’s something you’d like. I’m also comfortable administering medications and paying close attention to any specific care instructions. I recently moved to the area and can’t have pets in my current apartment, so I truly love getting my dog time in by caring for others’ pets. I treat them like they’re my own! I’m a part-time student, so I have a very flexible schedule and plenty of availability throughout the day. I enjoy getting outside for walks and breaks, and I love incorporating that time with caring for dogs. I’m available for daytime walks and drop-ins, and I can usually adjust my schedule to fit your pet’s needs! I prioritize making your pet feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I’m happy to follow your routine exactly, whether that’s feeding schedules, walk preferences, or any specific instructions you have. In your home, I’m respectful of your space and aim to keep things calm and consistent for your pet. I’m attentive to behavior, energy levels, and any signs of stress, and I’ll always keep you updated with messages and photos so you can feel at ease!
“Ashlee is just amazing!!! From taking the time to meet up and get to know the dogs. To how professional she was in asking questions about the care of our babies, as well as our home. She has a lovely disposition, she is so kind and gentle with our babies. She made the experience seamless. We are extremely lucky to have found someone so dedicated and caring. We will always think of actually when we need help again. We highly appreciate her and recommend her services.”

About: I have cared for dogs for the past 2 years, helping friends and neighbors with walking, feeding, and playtime. I enjoy giving pets attention and keeping them safe and happy. I have flexible availability and can adjust my schedule to fit pet care needs. Weekdays after school/work and weekends are usually open for dog walks and visits. I make sure pets feel safe and comfortable at all times. I follow owners’ instructions carefully, keep a close eye on pets during walks, and create a caring environment

About: I have quite a few pets at home myself and have experience taking care of dogs ranging from 9 months to 15 years I have a pitbull mix, a black mouthed cur, and a Bowser at home currently, but I've also taken care of greyhounds and schnauzers. I have five cats, most of which my family raised from kittens we found on the side of the road to adults one of which does have some dietary restrictions so I'm used to feeding multiple cats, different kinds of food at different times of day depending on what they need. Although I love all kinds of animals, I do have quite a bit of an allergy to purebred pitbulls so as long as your pitbull is not purebred if I take allergy medicine, I'm okay. I'm pretty flexible with my schedule and can't promise I'll be able to stay home with your pet for 8 hours a day but I can definitely be there quite often to let the mountain play with them I've never used a service like this before so I can't say what I would do in a client's home. But in my own home I make sure to give my pets lots of play time and exercise. And when I have free time, I do some mild training lessons with my pets making sure to give them a healthy amount of treats (I'm not a dog trainer, I'm just a normal pet owner that has trained their dogs to do basic tricks).
“Jorie walked our dogs all last week and did a great job! They were excited to see her each day :) We got thorough updates daily. We are already planning to book again. Thank you Jorie!”

After playtime outside is over they come get eat dinner then they chill and off to there beds for bedtime. I care for my pets and my clients by making sure that there not anything in reach. (especially on counters or anywhere reachable) I also made sure that they dont eat anything outside and i also check if there is anything that will hurt them outside before sending them outside.

“Zuko loved his walks with Maliki! This was the perfect match and Maliki was very calm with our big boy (German shepherd/husky), flexible with our schedule and always professional. We felt extremely comfortable having Maliki work and walk Zuko. We would love to work with him again either for walks or more doggie training; would highly recommend Maliki.”

Zuko loved his walks with Maliki! This was the perfect match and Maliki was very calm with our big boy (German shepherd/husky), flexible with our schedule and always professional. We felt extremely comfortable having Maliki work and walk Zuko. We would love to work with him again either for walks or more doggie training; would highly recommend Maliki.

I couldn’t have asked for a better dog walker. She is incredibly trustworthy, kind, and genuinely attentive to Killer’s needs. From day one, it was clear how much she truly cares not just about doing the job, but about building trust and comfort with him. Killer absolutely adores her, and seeing how excited he gets says everything. She’s always helpful, thoughtful, and communicative, which gives me complete peace of mind knowing he’s in such good hands. I’m beyond grateful to have found someone who treats him like her own. So happy I found her and I continue to use her weekly .
