Kyla let me know and was able to put him at ease. She sent photos of him enjoying his walk, which put me at ease as well. I would definitely hire her again.”


About: With years of hands-on experience caring for pets of all ages, sizes, and energy levels, I provide thoughtful, personalized care that goes beyond just feeding and walking. From spirited puppies to mellow senior cats, I’ve supported animals through every life stage—with plenty of love, patience, and play along the way. I’m confident handling multiple pets, giving medications (including oral and topical), and creating calm environments for anxious animals. I’ve worked with high-energy dogs who need structured adventure walks, and I’ve soothed shy rescue cats who just need quiet companionship and gentle care. My own life is full of furry friends, and I truly treat every pet like family. Whether your companion needs a hiking buddy, a cozy lap to nap on, or a sitter who takes litter box duties seriously—I’ve got you covered. As a homeschool mom who works from home, caring for pets fits seamlessly into my daily rhythm. Our days are structured but flexible, which means your pet gets plenty of attention, playtime, and consistent care throughout the day. Whether it’s taking a dog on a midday adventure walk or giving a cat some quiet companionship while I work, your pet becomes part of our loving, pet-friendly home environment. My kids are gentle and respectful animal lovers, so there’s always someone nearby ready to offer an extra cuddle or throw a toy. Because I'm home most of the time, I’m able to give pets a calm, consistent presence—perfect for those who get anxious when their humans are away. Pet care isn’t a side gig—it’s part of our family’s lifestyle. I provide loving and attentive care in your pet’s own environment, helping them feel safe and comfortable while you're away. Whether it’s regular walks, playtime, or giving medications, I follow your pet’s routine to ensure consistency and minimize stress. I’m also happy to clean up after them, including litter boxes or any messes, to keep their space tidy and calm. During my visits, I focus on creating a nurturing, stress-free atmosphere for your pet. I’ll send you updates and pictures, so you can rest easy knowing your pet is in great hands. Whether it’s feeding, playtime, or extra cuddles, I’m dedicated to providing the best care, right in the comfort of your home.

About: ***PLEASE NOTE: Additional charges will be applied for services over 20 minute of travel time. Please reach out and we can discuss pricing further! I’ve taken care of dogs of many kinds for over 10 years. Pets are a part of our families. I know how important they are when it comes to being taken care of and loved. I can provide that for you during the time you aren’t able to. I work part time remotely. We have a 3 year old who adores animals. along with a Great Dane, Boxer, 2 bunnies & 3 cats.

I have been told by people who are allergic when they visit that they wouldn’t even know we had cats based on the cleanliness of our home causing little to no allergic reaction.

You have my promise that I will treat your fur babies with love and respect and that includes safety of your home, not just your pet.

About: Aside from my childhood pup, I've been a Dog Mom to a handful of dogs. Small & large, friendly & even friendlier, snuggle bug to less needy, I'm lucky enough to say that my dogs (past & present) provide many learning opportunities and an immense amount of joy. My schedule allows for most weekends and rotating weekday(s) off. My husband and I know that a tired dog is a good dog - and routine exercise for our dogs is essentially what we plan our lives around. Our dogs are a bit spoiled - as are most people's. They roam freely inside, even when they're home alone (with the radio on of course - because they deserve it). When outdoors, our dogs are either on leash or have an invisible fence collar on.

“Brooke was amazing with my dogs! They were walked every day, as requested, and she always sent a picture or 2 showing how happy they were. She was also great with my elderly mom, who stayed home while I was away. Mom couldn't stop saying nice things about Brooke and how great she was.”

About: Hello! My name is Emmy, and I am an avid animal lover! I enjoy helping people and their dogs live their happiest lives together, as best as I can through both dog walking and dog training! I have raised and cared for my own pets, including dogs, cats, birds, fish, and reptiles! I have three dogs of my own :) I am also a certified dog trainer through the Catch Canine Trainers Academy, and am enrolled with the Animal Behavior College Service Dog Trainer program. I have experience raising puppies of my own, but I also have experience raising, doing basic training, and socializing for puppies for Canine Companions (a non profit that matches people with disabilities with service dogs, free of charges). Both of the puppies I raised went on to graduate as service/assistance dogs! I have walked dogs for family, friends, and neighbors, but I also worked for a dog walking business when I lived in Denver, CO. Working with people and their dogs is a passion of mine! I am currently working part-time for dog walking Monday through Friday, but I look forward to giving your dog(s) the quality time they may need during the day. When out for a dog walk, I keep all dogs leashed and with a solid collar/harness. I also choose walk routes that are safe for both the dog(s) and myself: preferably with sidewalks, wide roads with low vehicle traffic, good visibility, non-slick surface, cool enough for paws, avoid salted surfaces (when possible). I do my best to wear clothing with bright colors, to help with visibility as well.

“Since meeting Veronica at our meet and greet, she has been so detail oriented, communicative and soooo friendly with our puppy! I love getting the report cards from their daily walks :) I appreciate that she takes the time to get to know the owners and the pup to keep them (and us) comfortable when we’re away from our baby! Your puppy will be in AMAZING hands with Veronica!!”

Sharayah "Rae" B.
“I cannot say enough great things about Rae. She is truly one of the most knowledgeable and skilled canine professionals I have ever met. Her deep understanding of dog behavior, combined with an incredible ability to communicate with both dogs and their owners, make her an outstanding trainer. From our very first session, it was clear that Rae has a natural talent for working with dogs of all breeds and temperaments. Her patience, positivity, and science based training methods have transformed not only my own dog training but also my confidence as a pet owner. What sets Rae apart is her ability to tailor the training approach to each dog's unique personality and needs. She doesn't just train dogs, take care of them, or just another pet sitter, she invests in educating owners ensuring the training and care is effective and sustainable. Thanks to her guidance, my dogs are happier, better at agility, disc and tricks as well as more responsive to me than ever before. If you are looking for someone to take care of your pet, or train your dog (and you), and is professional, compassionate, and incredibly smart when it comes to canine behavior, look no further than Rae. She is truly the best and we are lucky to have such a qualified person local to us. ~ Rosalind Klezos owner of Elliot, Beau and Beckett”

Emmy is knowledgeable, confident, patient, trustworthy, sharing tips all the time and "teaching" by example. She is fit (runs with her own dogs), and comes well prepared to go out in any weather. Her car is set up with extra supplies in case she needs them. Emmy is flexible, respectful, cooperative and a great communicator. Emmy is part of the great success we have with Liberty. Liberty loves her and so do we! Liberty knows about the time it is for her "walking date" and waits and watches with great anticipaton for her to arrive.”
