About: I’ve had numerous pets over my entire life. My daughter and I are looking to provide love and care to dogs or cats in our area on an as needed basis. Our schedule is flexible until the school years starts and then will be on an as needed basis for nights and weekends. I would prefer the care be provided in the client home. Due to having a handicapped daughter in our home, I would prefer to provide the care in the client home. I can provide drop-in’s, walks, daily care, or overnight care.
About: I grew up taking care of horses and a cat. Once I got a place of my own, I adopted two dogs and got a cat. I currently have a puppy who I am teaching basic commands. I have always been an animal lover and enjoy meeting new furry friends! My family and I love animals and look forward to meeting yours! I currently work full time from home with limited travel, but I do have a flexible schedule that allows me to plan around work to walk dogs or do potty breaks. I have a fenced in yard with two friendly dogs and a cat. I can easily crate your pet if needed. I enjoy walking and my son loves to play fetch with dogs!
“Had a good repertoire from the meet and greet onwards. We had no worries that our two kitties would be well cared for in our absence. Luna kept us well-updated on what our boys were up to and sent pictures as well. If we ever need a sitter again, we'll be checking with Luna first!”
“Anna was extremely professional, courteous, and kind watching our cat while we were gone! Communication was amazing and when we got home our baby seemed very happy. You could tell how well Anna took care of him and the house. I would love to have her again!”
About: I’ve taken care of multiple dogs and cats, growing up with 5 dogs and 6 cats at once. I now have a Lab, Great Pyrenees, mix whom I have trained and taken care of since a puppy. She is an energetic and roudy dog who needs constant attention and affection, so loving animals comes easy to me especially with my little partner. I also grew up with 12 cows, so I am comfortable with those bigger “grass puppies” if needed! I’m currently looking for a full time job, but am available right now all day every day. I’m a student athlete who wrestles in college, so for right now I train from 7am-9am. After that I am completely free to play with any fur babies that need loving. Any holidays are also completely open in my schedule. I have a fenced in small yard, which my pup loves to play in. She is spoiled so she sleeps on the bed with me, and even gets her own blanket, but she is also trained and is working on her recall. She knows the basics along with some party tricks I have taught her! I’m able to get comfortable with animals and owners, to assure that your pets will be safe and loved during the whole visit. I’m experienced in dog, cat, cow, sheep, and disabled dog care. Growing up on a small farm, I was well rounded with the care of our 5 dogs, 6 cats, and 12 cows along with our 4 sheep!
About: I've owned and cared for many different breeds and ages of dogs my whole life! I have a soft spot in my heart for animals and promise to take the best care of your fur babies! I am a full-time teacher from 7-2:30, but outside of my hours I am very flexible! I am also flexible most weekends and have my own transportation. In my years of working with animals, I remain vigilant and caring of your animals, as I know I would want the same for my animals at home!

If the client requests something specific then I will accomodate for their request the best I possibly can!

About: I’ve had a dogs in my life, since I was a child, and was introduced to cats as I ventured into the collegiate life. As an adult I have cared for dogs primarily, but recently had the opportunity to take care of the sweetest cats! I am fairly patient with pets and like to give them as much space as they like to try to not mess up the routines, but if they are balls of energy and cuddle bugs, I am more than happy to comply! I believe that walks and healthy roaming space is good for a dog’s, development and energy, and respecting a cat to make the first move to ensure respect and comfort to their environment. Hi! I’m a full-time high school interpreter and a lifelong animal lover. During the school year, I spend my days helping students thrive in the classroom — and now that summer’s here, I’m excited to dedicate my time to caring for your pets! I like doing research on the neighborhoods that I’m going into if it’s a new area, and like to understand what you have available, either a dog park, or a fenced backyard, to really understand how to best care for your dog. My dog is a big ball of energy so I have learned a lot of skills to be able to make sure that they stay in their assigned spaces, I do like to keep them with me on my lap as I work, or nearby letting them enjoy a nap.

From day one, it was clear that Melissa is not just a dog sitter—she’s a true animal lover. Kiley has always felt right at home with her, and I’ve never had to worry for a second about her well-being. Melissa goes above and beyond to make sure Kiley is not only cared for but genuinely happy. Whether it’s taking her on long walks, playing her favorite games, or just providing some good old-fashioned cuddles, Melissa makes sure Kiley gets the attention she deserves. And Kiley absolutely adores her! What really stands out about Melissa is her communication. She always keeps me updated with cute photos and little anecdotes about Kiley’s day, which always puts my mind at ease. I can tell Melissa genuinely cares about Kiley’s happiness and health, and that’s priceless to me. If you’re looking for someone reliable, loving, and experienced to take care of your furry friend, I wholeheartedly recommend Melissa.

“We have used Makayla several times over the past 3 years when my son had out of town baseball games. We loved the fact that she lived close and would come over several times a day during the time we had a new puppy. She always charged us a flat fee which others wouldn’t do. My family never had any issues with er in fact I always thought she did more that asked when the dogs occasional destroyed a new toy.”
