“Jodi is one of the best! She is dependable and on time. She is a good communicator and ensured she knew what we needed/wanted. But, most of all, our pup loves her! Thanks Jodi!”

Markie S.

“Our yellow lab Rosie had the best time! She got plenty of walks and attention, and Rose even helped clean up and take care of a little skin irritation while we were gone. We came home to a super happy pup and couldn’t be more grateful!”

“Ashley does such an amazing job with our anxious dog. She has gone above and beyond to take excellent care of our pup and is communicative and dependable.”

About: I’ve always had a genuine love for dogs and cats and enjoy spending time with animals of all personalities and energy levels. I’m comfortable with playful, energetic pets as well as those who are more shy, cautious, or need a little extra patience to warm up. I understand that every pet has their own routine, personality, and needs, so I make it a priority to follow your instructions carefully and treat your pet with the same care and attention I would want for my own. Whether your dog needs a good walk, some playtime, or simply some company while you’re away, I’m happy to provide dependable and loving care. I’m also comfortable caring for cats, including feeding, refreshing water, cleaning litter boxes, and giving them attention while respecting their space. My goal is simple: make sure your pets are safe, happy, comfortable, and well cared for while you’re away. I’m currently working a job and my current schedule for assisting with our furry friends reflects that schedule! Friday to Monday is my current schedule for helping our friends! I care for every pet according to their individual routine, personality, and needs. Before each visit or walk, I make sure I understand their feeding schedule, exercise needs, medications (if applicable), and any special instructions from their owner. During walks, I focus on keeping pets safe, comfortable, and engaged while allowing them to enjoy their time outside. In a client’s home, I follow their normal routine as closely as possible, making sure pets have fresh water, food, attention, and a clean and comfortable environment. I’m also happy to provide updates and photos so owners can feel confident knowing their pets are happy and well cared for. My priority is always the pet’s safety and making sure they receive the same patience, love, and attention I would want for my own pets.

About: My experience as a Guide Dogs for the Blind puppy raiser required me to safely handle dogs while exposing them to a wide variety of situations and environments, all while monitoring body language and behavior, providing consistent positive reinforcement, and building trust through clear communication. Getting the opportunity to help raise the next generation of service dogs gave me a deeper understanding of how to keep dogs safe, engaged, and happy while adapting to each one’s unique personality and drive. I take pride in my ability to notice subtle dog behaviors that indicate such things as stress or discomfort and respond appropriately to ensure a positive experience. I am currently working only part time so I have plenty of time to play with your pups and give them all of my time and energy! I also have reliable car for transportation. I am comfortable and have worked with all breeds and sizes and have had dogs and cats all my life and know what to look out for if something is wrong. I don't have any pets of my own at the moment so no worries if your pet is not good with other animals! I take the safety of the animal in my care very seriously and treat them as if they are my own!

About: Hi! My name is Monae, and caring for animals is something I genuinely enjoy. I have hands-on experience working with dogs through my volunteer work at the Humane Society and Resilient Sanctuary, where I help with walking dogs, providing enrichment and socialization, cleaning kennels, preparing food and water, and assisting with daily care. I am comfortable around dogs of different sizes, breeds, ages, and personalities. I understand that every dog is unique, and I take the time to learn their routines, preferences, and needs so they feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while you’re away. I am currently pursuing a degree in psychology, and I have a strong interest in animal behavior and dog training. This has helped me develop patience, observation skills, and an understanding of how to build trust with both pets and their owners. Whether your pet needs a walk, a drop-in visit, or companionship while you’re away, I will treat them with the same care, attention, and respect that I would want for my own pet. I know how important it is to have peace of mind when someone else is caring for your furry family member, and I am committed to providing reliable care and clear communication every step of the way. I look forward to meeting you and your pets! 🐾 Why book with me? * Volunteer experience with dogs at the Humane Society and Resilient Sanctuary * Experience with daily animal care, enrichment, and socialization * Reliable and responsive communication * Comfortable with dogs of various breeds and sizes * Passionate about animal behavior and dog training * Dedicated to making pets feel safe, happy, and loved I work full-time with TSA, so I currently offer pet care on Fridays and Saturdays.

Whether it's walks, drop-in visits, playtime, or companionship, I will make sure your dog receives plenty of attention, exercise, and care while you're away. I live in an apartment, but I make sure dogs receive plenty of walks, exercise, potty breaks, and attention. I always follow the owner's instructions and take the time to learn each dog's routine and needs. I currently volunteer with the Humane Society and Resilient Hearts Animal Sanctuary, where I work with dogs of different sizes, breeds, and temperaments.

My long-term goal is to become a service dog trainer, so I'm passionate about continuing to learn and build experience working with dogs.

“Emily is so, so great with our dog, Frida. They go on the best walks with the best smells, and Frida is in such a chill mood when I get home from work. She does an awesome job, and is thoughtful above and beyond walking Frida. Thanks again, Emily! We appreciate you!”

About: My name is Samantha! I am teacher and have breaks to help out other dog owners. I have owned dogs my whole life. I am very safe and responsible and am used to managing 30 kids all day, I can definitely handle a couple pups! I will be very respectful of your time and can be flexible to accommodate you and your pup. I love going in walks, and would love to take yours on safe ones as well. I can do drop in visits and overnights as well, thank you!! I am off for the summer so I have lots of time currently! I no longer have pets of my own anymore, so it's even easier for me to make space in my schedule. I have a yard but it is not fully fenced so pets would always be leashed. I no longer have any animals in my home.

“Cassie is wonderful and I'm so happy to have found her (and so our the pups)! She's kind, helpful and easy to work with.”

About: I’m a reliable and caring pet sitter with real, hands-on experience — I’ve had my dog for 10 years and I care for my two cats daily. I’m attentive, responsible, and always make sure pets feel safe, comfortable, and loved while you’re away. Pet care is already a natural part of my everyday routine. I take care of my two cats and my dog daily, from feeding and cleaning to giving them attention, playtime, and exercise. Because caring for animals is something I’m used to and genuinely enjoy, adding pet sitting into my schedule fits smoothly and feels like an extension of what I already do. At home, I take care of my pets by keeping them on a consistent routine—feeding them on time, cleaning their spaces, giving them playtime, exercise, and lots of attention. I make sure they feel safe, comfortable, and loved every day. When I’m caring for pets in a client’s home, I follow their specific instructions closely, maintain their pet’s usual routine, and keep the environment clean and calm. Whether at home or in a client’s home, I focus on giving each pet the same patience, care, and respect I give my own.

About: I had my first dog when I was 5 years old. He was a Labrador mixed with a German shepherd. I now have a tiny shitzu poodle who I love very much. I’m experienced with dogs of all sizes, and I can guarantee proper care of all fuzzy friends. I currently work part time in the evening, so my mornings are free for everyone’s fur babies! I would love to fill my time taking care of the pets of others. I have a an enclosed backyard that is completely safe and spacious for any dog to roam. When dog walking, I remain vigilant and always stay on top of any potentially concerning situations.

About: I’ve not only had my own pets throughout my entire life, but have cared for the pets of those around me on multiple occasions, whether it be dog walking for neighbors, or pet sitting for vacations. I work from home and am typically available all day to care for your pets. I am flexible and can come check on your pets when needed as well. When checking in on your pets in your home I will spend quality time with them, while also checking their food and water supply and making sure their living situation is up to standard. When caring for pets in my home, I will treat them as my own.
