I feel like they are the soul of our home. I hope to have the opportunity to meet and take care of your babies. See you soon.

About: 🐶 I've been called to care for dogs. The connection is inexplicable. The love is genuine 😎 🐕 🐶 Clients trust me because 1. their dogs love me 2. Im responsible and answer my phone 3. I provide a quiet, safe environment, with a big fenced yard 4. I send lots of pics and vids while their dogs are in my care Pets are my passion. This is what I do. I have plenty of time to give your pet a vacation or even a mini doggy boot camp depending on your wishes. Depending on client wishes, I provide: -lots of exercise -training (basic) -grooming (basic) -dog socializing This is a home, not a kennel. My home has a very loving and positive energy. I bought my home because the layout makes it very easy to keep dogs on one side of the home and cats on the other--CATS AND DOGS WILL ALWAYS BE APART 🙏 The living space of the house is 2,200 sq ft. This house is a corner lot and has MANY windows! 🪟 Lots for the pets to see outside 🌳 🏡 Plus I have ceiling to floor windows that the pets especially love. SEE MY PICS!

About: This girl. I'm that person at your party that spends the whole night playing with your dog instead of socializing. And while it doesn't win me friends, it makes me a great dog sitter for your pup. I've got two little guys of my own, Chachi and Mac. I love rescues (and really all dogs tbh) and both my husband and I work from home so we spend a lot of time together. I believe that as much as dogs need food, water, and bathroom breaks, they need attention and love, as well. So, that means I'll be making sure your pets meet their maslow's hierarchy of dog needs. And if those needs include a lot of pets, playing, and occasional treats--I'm your man. I work from home and make my own hours so am available to work around your schedule. Please provide as much advance notice as possible and account for proximity when booking. While I have a fenced backyard, it isn't very large. I don't recommend large excitable dogs that need a lot of outdoor space to stay here. Additionally, as stated before, I have two small dogs. All dogs staying my house MUST BE FRIENDLY.
“Always good to know your fur baby is in good, safe hands. Brent and David took good care of our blind/deaf senior dachshund. We would not hesitate to use their help again.”
About: I’ve taken care of many dogs from puppies go senior dogs. I treat pets like family and will make sure your pet is taken care of while you are away. I have a very flexible schedule and can accommodate most requests with little notice. I love to walk my dogs for my exercise and theirs! I have a fenced in yard and 3 doodles who love to play. I have fostered multiple rescue dogs and understand how to help even the most difficult dogs feel comfortable.
About: Dogs are also family wouldn't you say they deserve the best care from the best dog caregiver and walker!? With me your dog baby will receive attention through dog walks, be given time to run and play and have the love and care to continue to thrive. In the past I have traveled in the city with dogs doing activities such as bike riding and long distance walking. The Services I do provide are feeding, exercise walks to keep your fur baby happy and healthy, fun time to keep them stimulated, to continue to build on their social skills and so they can routinely be working on their bonding with family, new faces and other dogs. Dogs are constantly growing and learning so the proper sitter is needed. I'm currently working from home, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your fur baby! I'm available for boarding on weekends and weekdays. Making sure your dog is secure in my home or yours is my first priority. Because dogs are just like babies they can get into things so double checking doors and Gates is a must.
About: Senior care, kittens/puppies, special needs. I have had animals all my life and connect with them on a different level. I often hear people say that their dog or cat doesn’t like people when they like me. I’m flattered and appreciative of their trust. I understand what that takes & I return it with love. I am a corporate professional, currently going back to school, pursuing my dream of getting a degree in Interior Design. My classes are virtual which gives me a lot if flexibility. I spend my time with my 2 cats and dog while studying. I care for my fur babies like they are my children, because they literally are my kids. I have had several special needs pets, and know how to handle challenging situations. I love to meet new people and their pets. I often find myself stopping to say hello to a random stranger, bonding over their fur baby. It’s the constant connection in my life.

I also want to teach my kids responsibilities and what better way then having them help out with a pet. I dog sit for my friends and family all the time.
