About: I’ve grown up with both dogs and cats and I loved every second of it. And I can’t wait to take care of your animals too! I am not currently working so I have plenty of time to hangout with your pets! I am available to start anytime after noon or if need be earlier if requested. I don’t have a yard but I have a small grassed area that is not fenced in. But I have a lot of places to go for walks in the area.

“Megan was great. Very communicative and was able to work around the weather. Always on time and was great with Pebble!”

About: I worked in a doggy daycare/boarding facility for over a year and would provide care for a variety of dogs. I completed multiple “Dog Gurus” training sessions for knowing dog behavior while working there. I also have cared for reptiles, rodents, & birds. I currently have two dogs, a Shih Tzu and an American bully. My work, family, and friends have always trusted me to keep their pets healthy, happy, and clean. Im excellent at caring for seniors, puppies, special needs, and reactive dogs. Also trained in bathing, brushing, ear cleaning, and nail trimmings if your pet/pets need any grooming! I can easily adapt my routine to make sure your pets get all the attention and exercise they need. I am available Monday-Sunday and on holidays. Your pets comfort and safety is the most important thing to me. I always do my best to follow your pets routine so they can be stress free while you’re away. I am a fast responder to all types of communication so feel free to reach out to me as often as you’d like!

“Lucas was wonderful! On time and was very friendly. I highly recommend and would use again. I booked last minute and he was able to accommodate my schedule. Kovu really needed a walk and tired out afterwards. Thank you so much! I would use their service again.”

“Ashley did AMAZING!!! She was so good with our senior dog who has degenerative myelopathy. She came for a meet and greet and learned how to put our German Shepherd in her wheels and caught on fast. Samantha loved her right away. Ashley was great at communication and sent us photos of our girl. Ashley was super gentle and patient with Sam which is what she needs in this stage of life. We would have her back any day!”

About: I have experience with dogs 8 weeks - 14 years. I have extensive knowledge of senior dogs. I am less experienced in cat care, but I have had cats in the past, and have also house sat for friends who have 3. I am currently a college student, so I will be unavailable on Mondays. I also have a part time job from 8:30 am - 5 pm. I am available on weekends for dog sitting or after 5:30 pm weekdays. I would love to find out what type of exercise your pet needs. I enjoy walking and I am very good with a chuck it.

About: My name is Corrie and I love animals, I have 2 cats, 2 dogs and 2 kids. They mean so much to me. I have a passion for caring for animals of all kinds. I love going for walks with my dogs. I have a big yard that's 2.5 acres and we roam around the whole thing. Some of it's long grass so I will check for ticks. I cut or file my own dogs nails as well and can offer that if needed depending how well the dog or cat does. I work full time but work from home some days of the week, Wednesdays and Fridays. We are available in evenings and weekends. Especially in the winter. We have a large yard. Most of the time we let the dogs out on a 50 foot leash for quick potty breaks. Rocky is allowed to roam a little. Otherwise we walk the dogs around the yard or neighborhood. Have a large crate when needed.

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life—everything from dogs, cats, and horses to bunnies, chickens, and reptiles of all ages. This lifelong experience has given me a deep understanding of different animal personalities and care needs. Since I could drive, I’ve also cared for the pets of family and friends, which has given me hands-on experience with a wide variety of breeds, temperaments, and routines. I currently have a Belgian Malinois that I’ve personally trained, along with a cat, so I’m confident handling high-energy dogs as well as more independent pets. I’m comfortable with animals of all ages and sizes, and I treat every pet like my own—with patience, respect, and lots of love. I currently work night shifts and follow a 6-days-on, 3-days-off schedule. This allows me to be available during the day and fully available on my days off, which often fall during the week. My routine gives me the flexibility to provide attentive, reliable care—whether it’s for drop-in visits, daytime play, or feeding schedules that require consistency. I'm committed to making sure each pet receives the care and attention they need, even with varying schedules. I provide care exclusively in clients’ homes to ensure pets remain comfortable in their familiar environment. I prioritize safety, consistency, and respect for your space—always leaving things as I found them, if not better. I understand the importance of trust when someone invites me into their home, and I treat every home with the same care and attention I would my own. My goal is to provide reliable, stress-free care for both pets and their owners, so you can feel confident while you're away.

“Boomer (my dog) & I love Hannah. She’s our favorite walker and her updates and reviews of the walk is phenomenal! ♥️♥️♥️”

About: Hi, I’m Justina — a dedicated animal caregiver with extensive experience in walking, training, and caring for dogs of all kinds. I’ve worked hands-on with dogs of every temperament, including reactive dogs who need extra patience and structure. I volunteered as an apprentice with the Humane Society, where I focused on dog training and behavior, giving me a strong foundation in canine communication and handling. I currently own two amazing dogs, including a senior dog with extensive arthritis, so I understand the unique care and compassion older pets need. I’ve fostered dogs of all breeds and ages, from high-energy puppies to seniors needing mobility support. I’ve also nursed parvo puppies, gaining valuable experience with medical aftercare and fragile animals. I feel 100% confident caring for pets of all ages, whether it’s a tiny kitten or a graying, slow-moving senior dog. With a deep understanding of dog behavior, a calm approach, and a heart for animals of every stage of life, I’m here to give your pets the care, patience, and attention they deserve. Whether they need structured exercise, medical support, or just a little love while you're away, I’ve got them covered. My schedule is very flexible, especially during the summer months when I do not work. I’m an early riser, so I’m available for morning walks, drop-ins, and training sessions—as well as midday and evening care. Whether you need a consistent weekly routine or last-minute help, I’m here to make things easier for you and your pet. I treat every pet as if they were my own, providing loving, patient care tailored to their unique needs and personality. I’m always respectful of the owner’s home, belongings, and established boundaries to ensure a smooth and comfortable experience for everyone. My goal is to help the pet feel safe and relaxed by following their regular routines as closely as possible and creating a calm, positive environment while I’m there.

About: my childhood best friend lived to be 16 years old and I couldn’t of asked for a better boy!! since, we have gained more fur babies and I love them more than ever. I have excelling experience working with cats and dogs when it comes to grooming, feeding, potty breaks, special care/instructions and attention to the environment making sure your fur baby hasn’t gotten into anything it should have!! my schedule is currently mornings and every other weekend! if your fur baby requires potty breaks every eight hours my schedule will be a great fit, but I can always try and make some adjustments to fulfill you and your animals comfort & care! If your animal is in my home, I have two cats. They are very friendly, but your furball can be in my room where I stay, we do have a kennel incase. I do not have a fence, but I am in a big neighborhood when needing a potty break I will absolutely take your dog on a walk! If I am in your home, I will go by the book. You know your furball better than I do, my goal is to make you feel comfortable, leaving your loved one in my care!!

About: As lifelong animal lovers, our family will make your precious pup feel like part of the family. Whether they stay with us for 1 night or 20 (or more!) they will get the same love, attention, care, and privileges as our own furbaby does. We've welcomed many pets into our own lives over the past 20+ years and always love the chance to welcome another family's "babies" into our home when they need a place to stay for a bit. Enjoy your vacation/night out/business trip/etc. while feeling confident your pup is having a blast and getting lots of love! We know how stressful it can be to worry about your furry family member while you're away - we've been there! Our main focus is always safety, love, and fun! Alissa is currently a stay-at-home mother doing some part-time remote work. Myron works remotely. We have two dog-crazy kiddos (10 and 13) who love to help out with playtime! We love to get outside for walks or hikes -especially with a canine companion! We already have one small dog of our own, and care for a neighbor's small dog during the week, so frequent potty breaks, playtime, and snuggles are already a part of our daily routine. We're up early in the morning to start our day! Of course, if your pup is a late riser, they're welcome to sleep in ;-) We have a fully fenced yard for when we want to be outside and also plenty of space to play inside when the weather isn't cooperating; no shortage of grass to roll around in, tennis balls to chase, and a nice deck for sunbathing! We don't allow our dog to be outside without one of her humans for more than just potty breaks. If she's outside to play we're out there with her and would do the same for yours! Our own dog is allowed on all the furniture as well as our bed and yours would be as well (if that's your rule at home, of course!) we don't use a crate for our girl but have no problem doing so for you if that's a preference. We have two children who've been around dogs their entire lives and we have always instilled in them the idea that animals deserve space and respect - and continue to enforce that with them at all times. They both love animals and are very gentle and loving to all. Your furbaby will be treated like one of our own when they're here :-)

About: I’ve loved animals my whole life. Since I got my first dog at 8 years old I’ve always had them around. Currently I’m lucky enough to have 3 dogs, 3 cats, 1 bird, 12 chickens and a horse, all of which are spoiled. I currently have a dog, cat and horse treat business selling health pet treats at the local farmers markets with my 14 year old daughter. We live on 2 quiet acres outside of a small town. Nice walks are a must in the mornings and evenings on leash of course.

About: Hi! I’m Meghan! I’ve loved animals my whole life. I have both personal and professional experience with dogs of all breeds, sizes, and temperaments. I’m confident with high energy and reactive dogs. I have experience in training and providing medical care including oral medications, injections and other care services. I have flexible hours that can work around your schedule as needed. I’m currently self employed and spend the majority of my time at home, leaving me with time to care for your pets. I will treat your pets as if they are my own; with the utmost care and respect for your furry family. I will follow the instructions given by the pet parents diligently, adding in some extra love!

About: I’ve raised and trained my dogs since puppyhood. From basic manners and obedience with my first dog, to agility, tricks, nose work, and the show ring with my current two. I’m the kind of person who usually greets the dog first in a situation! I am a substitute teacher with 14 years of my own classroom experience. Summers are for dog events and the rest of the year involves dogs in the evenings. I’m meticulous about keeping animals safe and happy!! Each dog is unique in its needs and energy levels, no one size fits all approach when it comes to caring for pets.

About: I have over 20 years experience caring for pets and animals. This experience includes caring for and training cats, dogs, rabbits, horses and more! I treat each animal as an individual with different personalities and needs. I also have extensive experience in training animals, from basic commands to house training, ensuring they grow into well-behaved, enriched, and happy members of the family. I also understand the unique needs of senior pets, providing gentle care, administering medications, and ensuring their comfort and well-being. Through my many years working at equine training facilities and caring for my own animals, I have a proven track record of reliability and trustworthiness. You can feel confident leaving your beloved pets in my care. I will adapt to the unique routines and preferences of your pet, ensuring a seamless and stress-free experience for both pets and owners. Choosing me as your pet sitter means opting for a dedicated, experienced, and loving caregiver who will go above and beyond to ensure your pets are happy, healthy, and well-cared for. Integrating pet care seamlessly into my daily and weekly routine is not just a job, but just an extension of what I already do on a daily basis. On our farm, each day begins with attending to all our critters' immediate needs, ensuring they're fed and comfortable. Since I work from home, all the animals at our house are provide nearly full-time care and attention, keeping them stimulated and happy. At least once a day we have playtime, training, or enrichment activities, fostering their mental and physical well-being. As far as exercise, if we aren't outside doing chores and burning energy, we also can go on walks, either around the neighborhood or in a nearby park. I will always ensure your pets receive the consistent love, attention, and care they deserve, promoting their happiness and well-being while you're away. While our yard is not fenced, we have over 3 acres and are surrounded by pet-friendly neighbors. Regardless, pets are not outside unless they are being supervised. We also have a wonderful outdoor kennel that has a house with a covered porch and dog cables if you are worried about them running off and would like a little extra security. In the home, I maintain a pet-friendly environment and ensure hazardous items are secure. While we live in a rural neighborhood, we are within 5 minutes of a vet clinic and 30 minutes of an emergency vet. On top of that, I have access to many wonderful veterinarian friends that are only a phone call away. I prioritize open communication with clients to build trust and provide peace of mind, sending regular updates and photos. I will ensure your pet receives attentive care, feels safe, and is surrounded by a nurturing environment conducive to their well-being.
