“Lisa did a great job for us while we were on vacation! She sent photos of the pups each day with updates and left everything very neat and tidy. She even took the trash out for trash day and brought in the mail.”


“Wanted to be able to meet and have my cats meet her before I went on a trip and we all thought she was great! I feel much less nervous about leaving them now that I know she will be taking care of them for me!”


“So happy we were able to book Ava! We were gone all week for our wedding and didn’t want to stress Melody out by a long trip or boarding all week. Melody took to Ava right away and seemed very happy with her new friend! Ava was super respectful of our home and made sure we got updates throughout the week so we didn’t have to worry. I feel like Melody was well taken care of and loved. Ava even gave her a bath before we came back which was so nice. We’re absolutely going to use Ava in the future!”


“We had a great meet and greet. Snicks gave his approval. I was out of town for the start and finish of Victoria's sitting session. I left having full trust and confidence that my little best buddy would be taken care of.”


About: I have taken care of animals since I was a kid. Whether it be training and riding horses, feeding chickens, to raising puppies and kittens! My love for animals is my drive! I have experience with taking care of my past precious dog Mia, who had diabetes, and giving her insulin shots nightly. So if your fur baby has any specific needs or accommodations needed, just let me know and I’ll try my best to accommodate! I currently have a pretty flexible schedule, so unless I am out of town, or just not available, I can house sit, walk, and just overall provide for your bestfriend in the best ways!! I don’t believe in a punitive approach, but more of trying to help my pets to understand what Is necessary. Wether it be potty training, to manners with guest. My dog’s happiness and comfort is my top priority, and to me, your dog’s happiness and comfort is just as important

“Bre was an all around delight for our dog, and cared for her like she was her own. She was consistent with updates complete with photos and very flexible and composed during spontaneous circumstances that came up. We are beyond grateful”


About: I’ve been an animal lover my whole life, growing up surrounded by dogs, cats, rabbits, and even the occasional chicken. As a longtime pet owner myself, I understand how much our animals mean to us. I treat every pet I care for like part of the family, with patience, love, and attention to their unique needs. Whether it’s a daily walk or a weekend stay, you can count on me to keep your furry (or feathered!) friend safe, happy, and loved. I’m available for midday walks, check-ins, and evening visits. I also offer overnight house sitting if you're looking for someone to keep your pets company overnight. In a client’s home, I make sure pets feel safe and comfortable by sticking to their usual routine, feeding, walks, playtime, and lots of affection. I respect each pet’s personality and any specific instructions you provide. If I’m doing overnight care, I maintain a calm and cozy environment, making sure your pet gets attention, companionship, and consistency while you’re away.

“Amazing! I have never been happier with an in-home sitter. Great with my Dexter! I almost thought he was going to leave with her instead of staying at home. The stay ended up being longer than planned and a Belgian puppy was added to the mix. She had no issues with either modification to booking. Great with both dogs. Very responsive with communication and respectful of personal boundaries. Highly recommend and will be using again!”


“Hannah was great. We had an extended trip that changed near the last minute, not only was she flexible and worked with us to adjust but I think our boy dog fell in love with her, he was a mess for a while after she left. Will definitely look to work with Hannah again in the future.”


About: I'm type of person that will go to a party and first make friends with dog. My home is perfectly spaced for horsing around yet has many cozy places to take a nap and cuddle. I have a nice fenced yard with shaded spot on the rug and bench for lazy days. There is plastic kiddie pool to cool off in, when sunbathing becomes all too much. Street I live on is pretty private and fun to walk with big yards, plenty of bushes and places to sniff. There is a dog park in the mile proximity. My doggies are 2 goofballs that love to hang out with new friends. They might even insist on sharing a toy or two to win the guest over. All in all, we are a fun bunch to hang with. Pet boarding is a full-time venture for me so I will provide the utmost care and attention to your pet and will do my very best to be available to answer any questions or handle any concerns you may have during your pet's stay. Although I devote much of my time to boarding, please be respectful of the times I have listed below for drop-offs and pick-ups. Times for earliest drop-off and latest pick-up Monday to Thursday: 6am-830pm Friday: 6am-9pm Saturday and Sunday: 9am-830pm Be respectful of the times given. We wake up early on a daily basis and go to bed early as well due to early work and school schedules. Please let us know when you will be arriving. Send us a text upon arrival and we will meet you outside to bring your pet inside. This method will prevent barking from the doggos already here and reduce stress and separation anxiety for your pet. Please bring your pet's food in Ziploc bags with his or her name clearly written on them. If there are medications and/or supplements to be given, please include detailed and clearly written or typed instructions. What you DO NOT need to bring: food bowls water bowls pet beds/blankets toys clothes We provide toys (including indoor, outdoor, plush, toys for chewers, so let us know if your dog has a preference), beds, wipes, brushes, and crates if your pet needs one at night. Apart from our home that is open to your pet, we have an additional house on our property that can accommodate guests. We also have part-time staff who can help on an as-needed basis. Your pet will be free to run around our 1/4 acre backyard that is fully enclosed by a 6 foot fence. We have a large gazebo that provides shade during the hotter days. The backyard is divided into a large grassy area and smaller gravel and concrete sections. Fresh water is provided consistently. Tours of our home will not be granted. We will happily provide you with our Instagram account so you can view the premises and also check out our regular guests having a great time. We do not require a meet-and-greet for the stay, but if you would like to do one, our front porch provides the perfect spot for us to meet. We dedicate the weekends between 9am and 11am to any meet-and-greets you wish to have. I'm currently working part time, so I'll have plenty of time to play with your pets ! My partner, Hunter, and I both have remote positions so we are home most of the time. We absolutely love taking the pups on mid-day walks. I have a fenced yard and two friendly dogs to keep your fur baby company. I can easily crate your dog if needed. After dinner, everyone gets a dental bone with enzymatic puppy toothpaste to freshen breath and keep cavities at bay!

About: I’ve spent my whole life around animals and caring for them brings me so much joy. From playful pups to shy cats, I take the time to learn each pet’s personality and needs. Whether it’s long walks, quiet companionship, or special care like medications or cleaning up, I’m happy to help. I treat every pet like family—with love, patience, and genuine attention to detail. You can count on me to keep your furry friend happy, safe, and loved while you’re away. Being in nursing school has helped me develop strong time management and multitasking skills, which I use to make sure every pet in my care gets the attention they need. Even with a busy schedule, I prioritize feeding, playtime, and any special care like medications. My training teaches me to stay calm, patient, and attentive, so your pet will always feel safe and loved while I’m watching them. Whether I’m caring for pets in my home or yours, safety and comfort are my top priorities. I create a calm, secure environment where pets can relax and feel at ease. I make sure all doors and gates are securely closed, and I keep hazardous items out of reach. I follow your pet’s routine closely, including feeding, exercise, and any medications, to maintain consistency and reduce stress. Building trust is important to me, so I spend time getting to know your pet’s personality and needs, always respecting their boundaries and providing plenty of love and reassurance.

About: I've taken care of my neighborhoods animals since I was younger. With the dogs, I would walk them, play ball with them in the back yard, to bathing them if they needed it to cuddling them if it was a storm night. Hi guy! I just graduated school, so how pet care fits into my dailey routine is that i’m available majority of the time even holidays! How I would keep your pets safe is when we are going on a walk I would make sure they were leased. And then if I was playing ball with them I would make sure the gates where closed. And then during the night if they stayed in a crate I would make sure I had one.

This was the first time that I left my furry babies alone and I couldn’t have done it without Abeni. She did an excellent job taking care of them and communicating. I was very nervous but she made sure to put my mind at ease. My dog and cat felt in love with her the minute they saw her. She followed all the care instructions I gave her and made sure the two of them are mentally and physically engaged while keeping them safe. I can’t say enough about her, except how happy I am that I booked her and will definitely book her again soon. Now I can travel without being worried about my babies because they’re in excellent hands with Abeni. Thank you Abeni for taking care of them. They already missed you ❤️
