Pet Sitting in Finklea

“Marie took such great care of our boy Ernie. Made us feel comfortable and treated him like family. She went above and beyond. Great communication as well. We could not have asked for anyone better. She is truly amazing!”

About: I have always loved animals, having had many pets as a child. Mostly larger dog breeds: Bernese, lab, golden. But have locally pet sit for neighbors with larger and smaller breeds. Ranging from Great Danes to Maltese! I have also been an exotic owner. Just lost my Holland Lop rabbit last year. I currently have 2 fur babies, both orange tabbys. While, I would love to have a dog. I recently relocated to the area and I’m not quite ready however, I am ready to meet your babies! I live near the sports complex so if you’re looking to board your animal with me, they will have plenty opportunities to run and walk at the dog parks. Please let me know if you have any questions! I currently work full time in the medical field however I do have somewhat of a flexible schedule. During the weekdays, I may not be available between the hours of 8-6. I would be looking to provide mostly weekend care however I am able to complete nightly drop ins and walks! I am very cautious of letting pets outside the house. I have two cats myself and would never want them to get out so I will be very cognizant of your pets. I also understand our furry friends can cause a ruckus so I am keen to keep an eye one them whether inside or out.

About: I have had dogs as a pet my whole life and so has all my family members. I have helped deliver 7 liters from many different dogs. I've dreamed of being a veterinarian since I was little, that's how much I love animals in general. I have given oral meds and injections to dogs and cats. I love playing with animals and snuggles! Dogs & cats just make my heart full, but you can never have too many animals! I'm always trying to get my hubby to agree to more animals all the time! I own 5 cats and 22 chickens. I have had dogs and a bearded dragon before. I think animals are amazing and they always take to me like I'm their family. I have experience with some reptiles and fish as well. Your babies will be spoiled rotten with me! I'm usually available 7 days a week at some point in the day. I always make time for my fur babies! Just message me to work something out. I care for my pets by feeding them once or twice a day depending on the animal. I also give each of them their special diet tailored to them. They all get adequate time and space to use the bathroom and get lots of snuggles! I will do the same with my client's pets. I will care for them as my own, exactly how their owner requests with lots of loving on them in between!

“Savannah is a reliable pet sitter who was there for my cats in an emergency situation where I could not fly back from a work trip on schedule. I appreciate her attention to detail, prompt responses, and willingness to reach out if she noticed anything unusual. Definitely recommend her!”

About: I've been a cat owner for most of my adult life. I have always loved dogs as well and will keep your pet safe and happy while you are away. I have plenty of time to play, care or walk your pet. My schedule is open most days and weekends are not an issue for me. I would prefer to do drop in visits, or walks around the block. My cat is friendly, but not accustomed to other pets. I could let her be in her own room if needed. I do have a nice back yard but it is not fenced in.

“Kyia did amazing with Kila! Even though my baby is not a baby anymore she can be a sassy old girl. She was great with her. Her report cards were great to read while I was on vacation (and the pics too).”

“Debra was terrific. She took wonderful care of Moonshine and kept us informed daily about her visits with texts and pictures. We would be happy to use her services again when the need arises.”

About: Growing up in the Animal Rescue and Care world, I've cared for everything from horses, down to mice. Throughout my years I've taken to fostering, reconditioning, and rehoming abused and abandoned animals. I'm versed in animal behavior, to include neonatal and senior animals. My goal is to give as much love, guidance, and care as I can to every animal I come across. I live on my own homestead with my husband (stay at home dad/Disabled Veteran), and our 4 children. I'm a self employed Realtor and pet/farm sitter. I strictly follow guidelines given by pet owners. If no guidance is given, then I have my own basic schedule for all stages of life in both dogs and cats. In general, I walk/play pets, refill food and water (according to owners specifications), clean up pet messes, bathe if needed, and pick up pet groceries if needed.

About: With over 20 years of hands-on experience, I bring more than just pet sitting — I bring true peace of mind. I’ve worked with animals of all kinds, from energetic puppies and curious cats to senior pets with special needs. Animals aren’t just a job to me , they’re family. I pride myself on creating a calm, loving, and safe environment for every pet in my care. Whether it’s belly rubs, medication schedules, or just quality companionship, I treat each pet like my own. I understand their body language, their routines, and most importantly, their hearts. Pet care isn’t something I squeeze in, it’s something I’ve intentionally made space for. I work from home, which means I have the flexibility to give your pets the attention they need throughout the day. I don’t have young children or other pets, so my focus stays 100% on your furry family member. This allows me to create a calm, low-stress environment tailored just for them, whether they need playtime, cuddles, medication, or just a cozy lap to nap on. I take the time to understand each pet’s unique needs, personality, and quirks. Whether they’re energetic or anxious, playful or shy, I meet them where they are with patience and kindness. I also send regular updates, photos, and videos so you feel close and connected while you’re away.

“Brian is a great dog sitter. We had him come to our house 3 times a day to tend to our dog Bucky while we were away for Christmas. He is very reliable and always showed up on time to tend to our dog. We highly recommend him if your looking for someone to care for your dog.”

About: Looking for that small dog environment? I will only take in small dogs under 20 pounds. I am very caring and passionate and have owned dogs my whole life. As a pet parent myself, I understand how stressful it can be to leave your pet when you are away. In my home, your pet will be treated just like family with endless amounts of love, attention, protection and fun. Skip the kennel time and breathe easy knowing that your pup will be in the best hands and have a home away from home! Each pup deserves around the clock human interaction and since I am retired it allows me to be home during the day and provide the care and attention for my guests. I will provide updates each day along with multiple photos. The amount of updates will be based on your preference. To ensure the safety of my pup guests, I only allow up to 2 clients per stay and no dogs larger than "20" lbs. I do not accept dogs with aggressive tendencies nor dogs that are not potty trained. All guests must agree to do a Meet and Greet to ensure they get along with mine as well as other dogs if applicable.

“Heather was very professional and very communicative with me which put me at ease knowing she wanted to be sure to get everything just right for my pup. Definitely will use again and I recommend to anyone.”

Sarah K.

About: I have a lifetime of experience caring for pets of all shapes and sizes as well as 8 years professionally training dogs of all shapes, sizes, breeds and temperaments. I train basic and advanced obedience, working dogs, service animals and more. I am confident and comfortable caring for dogs that otherwise might be difficult for others without experience in the behavioral field, while keeping safety at the forefront of every interaction. Additionally, I have 5 years of vet tech experience, giving me the ability and willingness to care for pets with medical problems, senior pets, pets requiring medication or pets with special needs. I have owned and cared for farm animals for much of my teenage and adult life, allowing me to offer care for pets outside of the home such as bovine, horses, goats, pigs and chickens. I am comfortable with birds, reptiles and exotic pets, having raised rabbits most of my life as well as owning guinea pigs, snakes, sugar gliders and a quaker parrot. I am CPR certified and have attended several emergency care courses for cats and dogs. My passion has led me to providing pet care and dog training services full-time, allowing for me to provide services for you and your pets year-round! I provide pet care and training services full time, year-round! I am available for last minute requests and can handle care for pets with special needs or behavioral problems- keeping safety for both parties as a priority. My home is set up for the care of pets. I have several rooms for dogs of different temperaments and preferences as well as multiple fenced in yards to allow for play times and potty times in small groups or individually as needed. In the summertime, morning bathroom breaks are longer to allow for plenty of playtime before it gets too hot outside. We provide at LEAST 4 bathroom breaks throughout the day. During peak heat hours, outside breaks are shorter. Once things cool off in the evening, I provide another longer playtime outside. Not every dog cares for or does well with other dogs so temperament testing will be done before they are free to play with the others. All dogs are supervised when out at all times. Dogs in my home will be kenneled for bedtime or if I need to run a short errand (groceries, doctor appointment, private training lesson with a client, etc.) Care in the client's home will be discussed before the job starts. Everybody has different preferences and I strive to provide the best care possible for pets while owners are away!
