I am so grateful for Bailey. She was quick to respond and took wonderful care of my Luna. When I returned she had taken out the trash for me! She even cleaned the used cat dishes. She goes above and beyond and I will definitely use her services again in the future.

About: I have owned between 2-4 dogs my entire life, ranging from small-large in size. I currently have a medium and a large size dog, both are friendly and love to play! My yard is unfenced, but I have access to a dog park just behind my home. I can offer any potty times and feeding times needed! I'm currently working gig work and do not have a steady job. I am home most of the time and can give your furry friend all of the attention they desire! I have 2 dogs that are very friendly and love to play! I live very close to a dog park, as in I can see it from my home! My dogs play in the house constantly, as well as going on regular walks and trips to the dog park!

About: For over 38 years, I have had animals from cats, dogs, and pigs. I have a dedicated love and passion for animals; everything from walks to cuddles to playtime and treats. I'll make sure your fur babies feel loved, happy, and healthy. I am reliable and compassionate and excited to take care of your babies while you are away. I work in the cities and have a flexible schedule. I will ensure proper and adequate exercise and attention is given to ensure your babies feel loved and attended to during the day. My priority is to ensure the safety so I will first check for fencing and leashing preferences of the family to ensure we are safe. I’ll also seek to understand all relevant home rules as they relate to pets and preferences.

I can't say enough good things about Ashley! From the moment we met, it was clear how much she genuinely cares about animals, big and small. My dogs and cats took to to her immediately, which was a huge relief while we were away, knowing they were in the best hands! While I was away, Ashley went above and beyond—sending regular updates, photos, and even little notes about their behaviors, meals, and playtime. It gave me such peace of mind knowing my fur babies were not just being cared for, but truly loved. Ashley also went above and beyond to make sure my home was taken care of, as some unexpected issues came up with the AC unit over the long weekend - she should really add "junior HVAC mechanic" to her profile! ;) When I came home, the house was in order as we left it and my pets were calm, happy, and clearly well looked after. It’s such a relief to know I have someone I can completely trust with my pets and my home. If you're looking for someone dependable, loving, and responsible—look no further. Ashley is a true gem. I’ll definitely be booking with Ashley again!

About: As a dog owner I understand how difficult it is to find care for your dog. Especially care that you can trust. No matter what service you are looking for your dog's would be treated as if they were my own. I work full time but due to my love for dogs I would make time around my schedule to adress your dog's wants and needs I have a fenced in yard and other animals that can keep yours company. I also have additional rooms to be able to seperate animals as needed.

About: I have taken care of all types of pets, and even own a few myself. At the moment I have 5 horses, 6 dogs, and 1 cat. I know what you’re thinking, wow she’s crazy, but what can i say? I love animals. I’ve always had such a big place in my heart for taking care of animals and eventually want to get a career working with them. I have pet sit for my family members and a few friends for overnight sitting, or just for a few hours during the day. I would love to take care of your munchkins for you!! I am currently enrolled in full online pseo coarse while working my job so I am available everyday during the most important times! (breakfast, supper, and potty time!). I am always up earlier in the morning to take care of all my my animals. When I take my dogs out to the bathroom they are on a leash, same with going on walks with them. My cat is an outside cat and he will usually go on my walks with me when I take my dogs. I wake up early in the mornings to feed all my animals and take them potty, same thing for night time. Usually i’ll try and let my pets out to the bathroom every 30-40 minutes just to be safe. And my dogs love playing outside while i throw a ball for them. Quality time and snuggling is an everyday must!!

About: I have taken care of dogs for the last 25 years of my life. I love to go on hikes and I hope to walk more to meet my weight loss goals for my heart health. ❤️ I do a weekly reset for myself and my cat Ozmo. Every Sunday I do his litter and wash his water fountain and food bowl. 🥣 Every pet parent has different needs and habits so I will always do my best to adhere to the needs of each pet owner and pet. So, if you write me a list, it will get done!

About: I’ve grown up with all different breeds and ages of dogs. I understand that all dogs have different personalities and their own traits that make them unique. I love getting to know their different personalities!! I currently work full time as a nurse but I have many days off during the week and weekends. My schedule varies slightly from week to week. But when I’m off, I’m usually spending time at home! I have my own fur baby who gets along great with other dogs and loves to have company! I allow him free rein of the house if I have to leave for any reason. But I do have a kennel and am able to gate off areas of my house if needed! My family has a farm place about a mile away with a large fenced in area that my dog loves to run in. I also love going for walks and cuddling on the couch and watching movies with my pup.

Hello, it's nice to see Lynn reaching out as a loving pet caregiver. I can't think of anyone better. She has been a pet lover since she was a little girl, even adopting a neglected farm pig when she was a teenager. She has taken in homeless dogs and cats and rescued kittems that show up at her house. She will be a great pet caregiver.
