I have a camera in my apartment with live access directly from my phone and keep everything pet safe at all times (no plants, organized, etc). When approaching new clients, I am gentle and respectful of their spaces.

About: With a lifelong love for dogs and years of hands on experience, I bring a deep understanding of canine care, behavior, and companionship. Growing up in a dog loving household, I’ve cared for a variety of breeds, each with their own unique personalities and needs. From daily walks and playtime to grooming and health monitoring, I’ve developed a strong intuition for what keeps pets happy and healthy! Whether it’s providing comfort to senior dogs or keeping energetic pups engaged, I approach every pet with patience, empathy, and respect. My goal is always to create a safe, loving environment where dogs feel secure and valued. Pet care isn’t just a responsibility- it’s a passion I’ve nurtured my entire life! I currently work full time but am free during the week after 5pm and all day on the weekends. I have two dogs of my own that I go home for on my lunches. They also love their daily walks and play time in the backyard. I have two dogs myself that love going on their daily walks. I will treat yours as they are mine and let them sniff everything their heart desires! I know that the walks are all about them and their time to get out!

About: With over 8 years of dedicated pet care experience, I have a genuine passion for providing the best for dogs and cats alike. My journey has equipped me with the skills to understand and meet the unique needs of each pet, whether it’s through playful walks, engaging activities, or cozy cuddle sessions. I prioritize safety and well-being, ensuring that every furry friend feels loved and comfortable in my care. From energetic pups to cuddly kittens, I’m committed to creating a nurturing environment that allows pets to thrive and their owners to have peace of mind. I am currently working full-time, so my weekly schedule will have availability mornings from 7 to 10 am and afternoons/ evenings from 5:30 to 9 pm. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I prioritize maintaining their routine. I ensure that feeding schedules are followed, provide playtime tailored to their preferences, and keep their environment clean and comfortable. I also stay attentive to their behavior and needs, offering plenty of love and attention to help them feel at ease. Communication with the pet owner is key, so I provide updates and photos to keep them informed and connected while they’re away.

“Allie was absolutely amazing with our Jack!! 5⭐️ without a doubt! She went above and beyond to make sure he was happy and comfortable and updated us every step of the way during her visit. Would recommend! ❤️”


“I can’t recommend Megan as a dog sitter highly enough! When our original plans fell through just a week before my vacation, she stepped in without hesitation and immediately put my mind at ease. From day one, her communication was outstanding — she sent daily updates and adorable pictures that truly showed how much care and attention she was giving to my dog. It felt like she treated my furry friend like her own. Beyond just excellent care, she even left a thoughtful little note for us, which was such a sweet and personal touch. Her professionalism, warmth, and genuine love for animals went far beyond what I expected. If you want someone who will not only watch your dog but truly care for them like family, look no further — she is simply the best!”
