“Michele was phenomenal at visiting and taking care of our two kitties, one of which requires taking medicines twice daily. She provided updates and photos of their wellbeing and environment. A very trusted person whom we hope to have visit our kitties for care in the future.”


About: I have taken care of dogs and cat for approximately 10 years for family members. I also have 3 pets in my home now and volunteer at an animal rescue! I am currently working full-time Monday through Friday, but I’m available Friday evening through Sunday for boarding. I’m also available for pop ins and daily walks in the morning from 6am to 7:30am and evenings from 6pm to 7:30pm I have a nice big yard that your dogs can be leash walked in along with one big and one small dog available to keep your babies company. I also have no problem in crating your fur babies if you need me to as well.

“David dropped in on our cat when we had to head out on short notice. As usual, our cat loved him, and we had no concerns while traveling! David provides us with peace of mind!!”


“Brittany did a great job sitting our cat. She was always on time, sent pictures and communicated very well with us while we were out of town. I highly recommend her and will be using her again in the future.”

About: Aside from my personal pets, i spent a year working full time in a doggy daycare. I’ve grown up around animals my whole life, and dedicate almost all of my time to my kitties and dogs. (I do want a farm of my own someday!) Pet care is wrapped into every one of my routines, from grooming, feeding, and playing with my animals. I pamper and bathe my animals frequently, lots of spa days. i love working with my dogs on mental stimulation, and of course playing with my cats. I will give your animals much love and treat them as if they are my own. Your animal will be fully supervised at all times, even when crated.

“Dustin was great! Very respectful, dependable, and followed directions well. We would use him again in a heart beat! Showed up on time, took pics, spent time with our animal and updated us along the way. Was easy to work with! Thank you Dustin!”


About: I have always had animals, especially dogs growing up. I have experience with senior dogs as we have one at present. A part schnauzer, "Betty" who is very spoiled. We have been boarding/pet sitting dogs for about 3 years now. We have a very large yard, total of 7 acres, with a large portion of it fenced in. They have plenty of room to roam amd will get play time often as my children love dogs also. Someone is always at home so your furbaby wont be alone much if at all. We would love the opportunity to meet and love your fur baby and thank you for considering us. I work part time nights and my teenage daughter is homeschooling so someone is always at home. We are a very physically active household so your furbaby will get lots of play/walk time if needed. I have a large fenced yard and one indoor dog that will keep your dog company. If your furbaby needs to be crated at night we can do that but most usually just sleep with the kids or on the couch.

About: I’ve picked up many animals on the side of the road, including raccoons who just need a little bit of love! I am very an understanding of Dogs’ and Cats’ based on body language!!! I currently work part time at a restaurant and am a full time student, but stopping by twice a day for a feeding and walk wouldn’t be a problem! I would prefer to cat-sit due to cats being on a different schedule than dogs. I can still make time to play with the cat pending on the personality. I am open to take off of work to walk your dogs and give them the stimulation needed! I live in the middle of nowhere, so my pets are free range. My two dogs play with each other all day, my cats also enjoy catching the mice and moles! When I go to a coworkers house to pet sit, I follow their instructions of how much to feed them and how often as well as walking times!! It just depends on the pet, personality and owner’s location!!

About: I have experience providing reliable pet sitting and dog walking, making sure pets feel safe, loved, and well cared for while their owners are away. I enjoy spending time outdoors with dogs on walks, keeping them active and happy, and I’m attentive to feeding schedules, playtime, and any special needs. My goal is to give every pet the same care and attention I would give my own. On my listed available days, I’m open from 6am until 7pm. On the days I didn’t list as available, I still am! From 6am until 12 pm, I didn’t have the option to adjust times by individual days lol. In my home, I make sure pets feel comfortable and safe by providing a clean, cozy environment with plenty of playtime, walks, and cuddles. I follow each pet’s usual routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, exercise, and any special instructions, so they feel right at home. When caring for pets in a client’s home, I respect their space and routines, keeping pets comfortable in their familiar environment. I provide regular walks, playtime, and companionship, and I always give updates so owners have peace of mind while they’re away.

“Melanie was great! She made us feel at peace being away from home for so long over Christmas and New Years. The multiple pictures and detailed updates were exactly what we needed. We would rebook her again if we are ever out of town like that again!”


“I cannot overstate. Did great with my baby sent great photos of how things were going. Kept me well informed. I was able to focus on my work trip without feeling nervous about not being there for Gucci.”


About: Pets have been apart of my life since I was born. I love animals more than anything. They have different personalities that can make you feel at ease. With pets there will always be something to do. My love for dogs runs deeply. I can care for your fur-baby the same way you would.

I am flexible with your instructions.
