About: I am very good with anxious dogs especially during storms. I love playing with dogs and taking them on walks. I have been watching dogs and cats for years now and am dependable. I am currently a full time student in college but I often have time off on weekends to take care of pets. I also have time in between classes to walk or check in with pets. I spend lots of time outside and go on walks regularly and I’d love to bring pets along with me. I also can spend time with them in the clients home if that’s where they are more comfortable.

About: As a person who has been the primary care taker of my pets since I was 8, I know the right way to take care of animals and know how hard it can be to find quality care for our furry friends. With 2 cats of my own and with several previously owned dogs, I know I can provide excellent care to all kinds of animals! I also have a Veterinary Assisting degree, so also being able to alert owners of any health issues to be wary of is something I take seriously! Pet care is a daily task, as such I am able to do daily walks and be able to do other care tasks throughout the day so that your pet feels enriched and loved even when you’re away. I understand dog behavior to a good degree as I studied it while in school to earn my degree, so being able to safely walk a dog even if they are reactive is something I feel comfortable with.

About: I’m a nurse who works from home with a very flexible schedule, which means I have a plenty of time to prioritize your pets. I know how much peace of mind it brings to have a reliable person nearby, and I treat every animal I visit like family. I’m completely comfortable with senior pets, pets with unique temperaments, following specific feeding routines, or administering medications (including injections) if needed. You can relax knowing your pets are safe and getting all the attention they need. Whether your pet needs a mid-day walking buddy or just a calm presence to hang out with during the workday, I’m happy to step in and help. I do not offer overnights at this time, but can arrange several drop ins throughout the day if you're out of town. I have a shepherd mix and two cats at home. I currently work from home with a very flexible schedule so I have plenty of time to spend caring for animals! I am available for drop ins, walks, and longer daycare sessions in your home. I place safety first when caring for dogs and will always follow your routine and care instructions. I have experience with reactive pups and am comfortable caring for and walking dogs of all temperaments, given proper safety measurements are implemented (such as walking dogs separately when needed).

Jessica was amazing! Such great energy and we felt comfortable immediately when she arrived for a meet and greet. She dropped in on Dennis and he was well taken care of while we gone...and super happy and not stressed when we returned. I really hope she will help us out again some time.

Kelly was great with our rescue dog! She was consistent and communicative with her drop in visits and sent several pictures. She even gave our cat some love even though he wasn't supposed to be part of the drop-in. Overall our dog seemed to really like Kelly, and we would definitely utilize her services again. Would recommend!

Claire is very responsive and easy to work with. My request was last minute and she still managed and requested a get to know quick appointment prior to the days of dog walking /drop visits. She followed every request and favor for the doggies. She is someone I trust giving access to my place without me being there. Thank you Claire!

Michelle did a fantastic job of taking care of our German while we were out of town. She was able to handle a large dog who basically had no leash etiquette and was able to give us the peace of mind to enjoy our vacation. Would highly recommend!!

I have a very anxious Aussie who gets very out of sorts when his herd of humans are away. From our initial meet and greet with Erika, I could see that her laid back and trusting energy provided my pup with the reassurance he needed. I was very happy with how the first visit went and plan to hire her again!

We felt very comfortable leaving our dog in Michael’s care while we did a day trip out of town. The visits to our dog were right on time and we loved seeing the photos. Michael even brought our pet food delivery in from the front porch. We will definitely use Michael’s services again.
