About: I always had dogs growing up. Currently have 3 beautiful dogs that fulfill my life now! Military and police background so you know you’ll get honest and trustworthy service! Currently working a hybrid position. I have sporadic availability through the week and weekends. I do have the ability throughout the day for short (30-45 minute) visits. I have a fenced in back yard at my home. There is plenty of room for the pups to run free. I have shaded areas and water bowls for them. If you’re needing your pup walked, I’m more than happy to take him/her for a great walk! There may be some treats available too 🙂 (with approval)

About: Hey everyone my name is Jessica and I have worked in the animal field for over three years and I am currently training to be a groomer. I have grown to love spending time with animals and would love to meet as many as possible. I am a very active person and enjoy walking and being outdoors so making sure your fur babies are getting their exercise and play time is a priority. For pets that are not comfortable in the outdoors and feel their best in their home I would love to spend time with them and make them feel as comfortable as possible . Your pets safety and health is always a number one priority and I will always make sure you are kept updated throughout my visit. Being in the field for many years has taught me a lot about pet care so if your pet needs anything from nail trims to ear cleaning or even a bath I can provide all of it. A trip to the vet or grooming can always be nerve racking so if your pet feels more comfortable in their home I would love to make them feel and look their absolute best. Pet care fits in my routine everyday as I am constantly around animals all day and it is my job to make sure all your fur babies look absolutely perfect. When I come home my cat is the first thing I tend to and make sure she feels safe and loved in her home. I take daily checkups on my cat such as changing her litter box and making sure her food and water bowl is filled and she is happy. She loves being in the patio so I always makes sure she gets some quality time where she enjoys taking her cat naps. Making sure your pet enjoys their day whether it’s going for a walk or simply playing with some toys in the house are just some of things I am able to help with .

About: I have owned cats, dogs, fish and birds over the years. I used to have 4 beagles. I also had 2 yorkshire terriers. I currently have 2 short hair domestic cats and a ragdoll cat. I really love all animals and enjoy playing and spending time with them. I am able to walk them for up to 30 minutes at a time. I can do check ins to feed and play with them for up to 30 minutes at a time and can do over nights in your home. I'm also a paralegal who will provide great attention to detail when caring for your fur baby. I'm pretty good at hiding medicine in cheese or peanut butter too. I'm mostly doing this because it sounded fun getting to spend time with animals and get some exercise at the same time. I have three cats so I regularly check food and water levels, as well as their litter box to make sure it's clean. I also work from home so they get a lot of attention throughout the day with head rubs and play. I also brush them a few times a week. If chosen as your pet care giver, I will provide excellent care and follow all specific instructions for your fur babies. I will feed, provide water, walk, play with, let animals out into fenced yard, and make sure any messes made by the animals have been cleaned up before I leave each visit.

“I would definitely recommend Allyson. She was on time with her visits with our girl. She informed us of what she did for honey and she made it easy for us to be away.”


“Jolinda went above and beyond for my pups! Excellent communication and when I questioned anything she was not defensive at all, reassuring me when I’d ask something we already went over! A very welcoming and warm person. Will definitely ask her to watch over my babies anytime!”


“Ceteria was great! Our dogs wee in wonderful spirits when we returned home. We will definitely use her again and we highly recommend her to others. Thank you Ceteria!”


About: I can handle any dog big or small, high energy, timid, low energy, giant breeds, counter surfers, etc. I have a dog park down the street if that is a part of your dogs routine and grooming supplies on hand if you'd like your dog to be clean and smelling fresh the day they're due to go home. I never stop learning about dogs so you can rest assured knowing you have one of the best looking after your pets. I have a wealth of knowledge, experience, tools, and equipment to ensure the best possible stay. I am a stay at home mom and am home everyday. I employ what I describe as the perfect balance of a dog being in a home setting it's used to while also having the security on the individual dog level of a kennel boarding facility. During the day the dogs get as much play time as they prefer and the weather will allow. I wake up early and the first thing I do is take all the dogs out to the backyard. The entire yard is available for any dog once I get familiar with them and their behaviors. My goal is to eliminate as much chance as possible of escaping, fighting, over heating, fence aggression, getting into things commonly found in backyards such as trash cans, etc. while also making sure they are fulfilled mentally and physically each day. For your pets sleeping or daytime napping arrangements I try to mimic their home routine as much as possible. I have one large kennel in my home reserved for dogs that are used to being caged at night or they can stay in bed with me and get all the cuddles. No other dog can try to steal their food, your pet won't eat another pets food which is great for dogs with sensitive stomachs, and it virtually eliminates the possibility for any resource guarding behaviors. The 4 foot by 4 foot space is good for one large or two medium sized dogs or 3-4 of small/tiny breeds. I have one 4 foot wide by 8 foot long kennel for Giant breeds or for two large dogs that sleep together. I also use these kennels if I am stepping out of the house for a short period of time so I can supervise and make sure every pet is safe for the brief time I am away. I go above and beyond to make sure every dog enjoys their stay in the safest possible manner. They have someone who understands their nature and fulfills their needs. I am in the military with a wide open schedule. I absolutely love all pets and have always cared for them. I am open to house sitting, dog walking and drop in visits. I love walking the dogs and getting all their built up energy out. I am amazing at following directions, doing what is asked and needed and going above and beyond.

About: Experience with elderly dogs and puppies. Love to play and walk dogs as long as they need me for! Will stay with dog as long as needed. I’m available all times of the week (M-F). Happy to work around changing schedules of pet owners and families needs. Communication is key for me! I live in a neighborhood with a ton of trails and ways to walk. The area I’m in is extremely pet friendly and allows for pet accessibility as well.


“I was blown away with how well Elle cared for our two dogs. She went above and beyond! So thankful to have found someone so reliable. Will definitely use her again!”
