“Ramya was wonderful! She did drop in visits with my cat for the weekend. She was responsive, sent great updates with pictures, and my cat really loved her! I would absolutely book with her again.”
“Becky did a fantastic job checking in on our cats! She did exactly what we needed and treated our pets very well! She is great to work with, is very personable, and communicates quickly. Will definitely book again!”


About: There is no amount of words that I can use to describe my passion for our four legged furry friends. Each one of us chooses a dog based off of our characteristics.I love seeing the human-dog relationship. My dog Scout is now 8 and a rescued pure bred mutt! She is one of a kind. Dogs bring out my passion, they are such smart creatures. It is a blessing the Lord created them because I can not imagine a world without our precious friends in our lives. My love for dogs started when I was six, my grandma had a beautiful collie named Shadow, but I was his shadow: I followed him absolutely everywhere. I remember each christmas I would fall asleep with him under the christmas tree. Having to put him down was honestly the hardest and most saddening events that I can remember. They work their way into our hearts and families. I have taken care of many breeds of dogs from the smallest pomeranian to Chief the great dane! They do get quite pampered care with me I have to say. The owners I work with have all loved the care and passion I put into taking individual care of each other pets. Its like taking care of a child. No child is the same. You have to love and treat them each in their own special way to make them feel at home and protected. Every animal deserves the utmost care! I take pride in being able to say I truly love to make every dogs day a pampered one! I currently am working part time in my evenings as a caregiver for two young adults with physical and cognitive disabilities. So my day schedule is pretty open. Thursdays I work 10 to 7 but can work in a break in the day for your dog and then just feed before or after work. My dog scout is a princess, not overly fond of sharing her space, but that comes from her past as a rescue. So I am willing to care for your pup in their home environment. Helping them feel safe and loved when owners are away.
About: I have been an animal lover since childhood and a pet parent for many years. I will bring all my experience to taking care of your pets. As I have flexibility to work remotely I will be able to take care of your pets on weekdays and weekends. I have enough time for walks and playtime. I have an extremely friendly dog and a dog friendly cat. They will keep your pet company. There is sufficient space in the house to run around and play.
About: I’m a girl that enjoys spending my free time with furry friends! I have 10+ years of experience working pets of all kinds. Family, friends, coworkers, and neighbors rely on me for their pet sitting needs, and I have experience as a vet assistant, kennel technician, and veterinary receptionist. I am currently working on my undergrad to become a Veterinary Technician as well :) I am available for dog walking, house check-ins, potty time and bathing/nail trims on Monday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday's after 5pm. I have open availability for all services on Tuesday, Wednesday and Sunday's. Caring for pets whether they're canines or felines in my home or at a client's home is very important. As always, they will have access to water at all times, receive their meals and medications (will be documented to keep track), and be loved as if they're my own. All pets will go potty regularly, spend time doing enrichment activities and go on walks to stretch their legs. Regarding our kitty friends, their litter boxes will be checked twice a day to ensure urine and bowel production, and they will receive the same care as our pups.

“Stephanie did a fantastic job taking care of our two large dogs! She spent quality time with them, sent us pictures every day, took care of any messes and left our house nice and clean! I would highly recommend Stephanie and we will definitely call in her again.”

“Jessica was amazing, responded straight away and was very responsible, she took great care of Gizmo and went above and beyond of what was asked, I would definitely recommend her and will be using her again in the future. Thank you Jessica, so glad I found you 😁 Mandy B”
About: I walk 10,000 steps a day and would love to walk your dog the extra mile. I've taken care of pets my whole life and love to volunteer in local shelters. I can teach your dog a few tricks, get all their zoomies out with a nice run, and give them all the frisbee, ball, tug of war, hide and seek, etc. playtime that they might want. I can also provide extra care to anxious, reactive, older, post surgery, and/or disabled pets. I have some dog training experience and can help your dog be more comfortable with other dogs, other people, address triggers, reduce pulling on the leash, etc. During our long walks, your pets will play, relax, and make new doggie friends all the time with careful introductions and lots of happy moments. Looking to build long term relationships with my clients and new pet friends. You can always reach me when I'm pet sitting if you ever have a question, I am always just a phone call or a text away. I'm currently self employed as a small business owner and mostly working from home. My schedule is very flexible and I always make time for long walks anyway so pet walks fit well into my routine of things. I always make sure the pets have food and a fresh bowl of water. After that I like to build some trust with sniffs and treats, see if they know any tricks. Once the pet is comfortable it's time for a walk and/or playtime to get all the pent up energy out. I think playtime is the most happy time for pets so I always to engage in a few different kinds of games until I find one that they love. This way the pets are happy and comfortable and can happily nap for the rest of the day after we are done.
“Dana came to my home when she said she would and took 5 pictures (minimum) of Lady and stayed with her to make her feel more at home. When we came home Lady didn’t even act like we had been gone for awhile. she also played with her and left an awesome goodie bag full of dog treats that my dog loved! She is a fantastic pet sitter!!!”

“Brit and her boyfriend are AMAZING! They are professional, extremely detailed with their reviews, and are so incredible with my dogs. My one dog is more difficult with strangers and my other dog is a love bug to everyone. They are mindful with my recommendations for Shelby and were not intimidated by her. Rather, they treat her with respect and lots of love, giving her space and allowing her to warm up to them on her terms. They are incredible and I can’t recommend them enough. Top notch for sure!”

About: From a young age, I was the main caretaker in our home for our dogs due to my lifelong love for animals, and warm caretaking skills. I was responsible for training and walking with our dogs (multiple at a time), feeding, medication administration, and physical therapy for my dog with arthritis. I have a deep respect for non-human animals and that is reflected through the way I treat them and live my life. I work from home on my own schedule, so my availability is very open. At times I need to leave home to teach yoga classes or run errands, but can easily work with a pet parent's schedule. With immense love and thoughtfulness, I ensure the safety and happiness of any animal under my care. My home is free of children and pets, and I ensure that food is kept in cabinets and plants that are harmful to pets are kept out of reach. My home is small, so it is easy for me to constantly keep an eye on your pet. I also have a walk-out porch so we can easily go outside at any time. My apartment neighborhood has a beautiful nature path where we can take multiple walks throughout the day. I personally go on daily walks despite the weather, so I am prepared to walk with your dog as much as they like and is healthy for them.
“10000/10!✨ getting married in another state, gone for 4 days & 4 cats, plus one who medicated twice a day & she was there everyday, updates with tons of photos, she’s so sweet & made me feel so relaxed leaving all my babies with her. I would highly recommend her 🤍 I will be using her again”

Lauren was EXCELLENT! Sometimes when I'm not home my little old lady dog refuses to eat, but Lauren got her to eat almost her full bowl every meal! And, bless her heart, I'm worried about letting my dogs out at night because of a skunk in my yard... Lauren went out there every night with the flashlight and made noise to scare the skunk away. She truly went above and beyond! She is very knowledgeable about animals of all kinds and she was super sweet. My dogs absolutely loved her. We will definitely be booking her again. Thank you Lauren!

Aixa, was very responsive and made a special trip to meet me and Luna that Saturday before her appointment. Luna takes a while to get used to new people and Aixa was very patient with her and able to coax Luna into her harness and take her for a long walk. Aixa sent very detailed updates and even video footage! I will definitely use her again!

This was our second time having Noah take care of our Dog, Ghost. I was so impressed with Noah the first time, he is an 'Exceptional Young Man". Very caring, always in communication with us while we are away, letting us know how Ghost is doing. Noah is very punctual and really loves animals, it shows in everything he does for Ghost. Thank You, so much Noah, for taking excellent care of Ghost for a second time! BB
